I Have a Question for Bulldog Nation:
What time is it in Jacksonville . . . or, at least, at the Jacksonville Naval Air Station, since it involves mlitary time?

Military Time
That would be 12 + 7:36 or 19:36 back when you asked.
Everything I know about baseball I learned from Ernie, Skip, Pete, and Sutton.
What I was going for . . .
. . . was 24 to 20! :)

BOOOOO GREAT DEPRESSION.
Hooray 24-to-20!

Technically, there is no 2400 hours. You start counting at 0000 hours at midnight.
However 8 24 pm translates to 2024 hours. Its 8 24 somewhere.

Sorry, I had to post fast to make time.
In conclusion, using the central time zone, my last post was made at 20 24, precisely the score by which my beloved Dawgs served up Gator Stew.
Of course, it may have been my temperature during the game, as well. Man, I was sick.

Thanks, VDawg.
Clearly, for this joke to work properly without any confusion, we’re going to need the Bulldogs to hold the Gators to twelve or fewer points next season.
Coach Grantham, make it so!

Just to explain...
… 19:36 is nineteen hundred hours and thirty-six minutes.
Or, in other words, it is twenty-four minutes before twenty-hundred hours.
So, 19:36 is 24-to-20.
(This comes from the “What time is it in Texas?” chant, where the answer is that it’s always 10-to-9: the score of the 1984 Cotton Bowl.)

Thanks, vineyarddawg.
Yeah, we definitely have to hold the Gators to twelve or fewer points in next year’s Cocktail Party, just to make the joke make sense.

How 'bout if we get up 50-0, . . .
. . . then deliberately give up a safety in the final minute?
