Alabama Crimson Tide at Georgia Bulldogs Basketball Game Day Open Comment Thread
Alabama Crimson Tide at Georgia Bulldogs, Feb 20, 2010 4:00 PM EST
Be forewarned: I will not be providing an instantaneous ill-informed roundball wrapup following this afternoon's game. I will be out of pocket for most of the day and it's a busy weekend of Georgia athletics, what with the Gym Dogs and the Diamond Dogs both being in action, so basketball will have to take a back burner. As always, though, I encourage participation in the fanposts and I will be happy to promote worthwhile work to the front page.
This afternoon's outing is a critical contest for the Fox Hounds. On the plus side, the Hoop Dogs will host a team not unlike themselves at Stegeman Coliseum with no winning streak on the line. On the minus side, it isn't as though Georgia hasn't struggled in winnable games against Yellowhammer State squads.
Hopefully, the home court advantage will tip the balance in the Bulldogs' favor. However the game goes, though, your comments are welcome below.
Go 'Dawgs!

The Fox vs. Grant battle will be an interesting one...
Especially since (like the Florida/Georgia DC hirings) both schools hired men with comparable resumes. In both cases the other team was perceived to have “gotten the right man” while the media portrayed us as settling.
Go Dawgs!

The performance or the coaches' physical appearance?
Or both?

Question of the Day
Why is it Leslie (a great player on a bad team) gets more national coverage than AJ Green (a phenomenal player on a reasonably good team)?

There seems to be an awful lot of whining about calls
Some warranted, some not. But they aren’t going to overturn the call. Stomping your foot like a 5 year old is just pathetic. Maybe that’s the old basketball coach in me. Who knows.

Are you sure...
You aren’t confusing it with the Georgia Football 2nd Half Meltdown (patent pending).

Sorry it was just the two of y'all, but thanks for having the conversation
As tankertoad probably figured, I was in Athens today, but not for the basketball game, so I appreciate y’all holding down the fort.
Go 'Dawgs!
Its quite alright...
I have lots of practice at being one of the few people that care about Georgia basketball — although I sense you are coming around. Hope your day in the Classic City went well.

I watched.
But I have a hard time posting on-thread at the same time, because I watch on the computer and max the screen. Thanks for caring about UGA basketball, and count me as one of the ones in the club.

The quote so nice it had to be said twice...
I suppose.

I offer my heartfelt apologies -
I could have watched the game, but it would’ve been on the new iphone that I don’t fully understand how to operate. I ran away from home for the weekend. Tired of the cold/snow/teenagers so I went to Sunny Orlando for the weekend.
That said – Since I still don’t really understand the game, I rarely offer much in the way of comments.
