April 16, 2011: The Dawg Sports Equivalent of St. Crispin's Day

Monday was a bit of a slow day around the weblog (which was not altogether surprising, in light of the end of men’s basketball season over the weekend), so some of you may have missed NCT’s fanpost proposing a Dawg Sports all-day sports expedition to the Classic City on April 16, beginning with the G-Day game in Sanford Stadium, continuing with the men’s tennis match against Tennessee at the Dan Magill Tennis Complex, and concluding with the baseball game against Florida at Foley Field.

Frankly, I think this is an exceptional idea, for which I am completely on board, but, if we are to make a go of it, we need to get an accurate head count and plan accordingly for purchasing tickets and suchlike. Thus, I welcome your RSVPs in the comments below and invite your votes on the following poll question:

Go ‘Dawgs!

Poll
April 16. Athens in the springtime. Georgia Bulldogs football, men's tennis, and baseball in a single afternoon. The companionship of your fellow members of the Dawg Sports community. Will you be there or be square?
I will be there.

I'll definitely be there for G-Day

And I’d love to meet up with everyone again. That said, I doubt my 3 year old will let me participate in the rest of the day’s activities.

People need to learn to not schedule weddings during football season

Yes, the G-Day Game counts as Football Season. Anyone who doesn’t recognize that is obviously not fit to be a Mrs. The984.

I'm so tired of weddings in general.

I’m at the age where everyone’s getting married, so my spring and summer (and often, fall) is ruined by these things. Two weddings in April, two in May, one in June. Jeeze.

Maybe you need fewer friends

On répond

NCT and LRKIII* accept with pleasure the kind invitation for the sixteenth of April.

*although I still have some selling to do; it’s difficult to plan more than a few hours in advance at our house.

I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's line ...

But (currently) six “there” to 21 “square” prompts me to observe, the fewer Dawgs, the greater share of honour.

SOMEONE STOP ME

I’d love to have more, but there’s something nice about the number six hundred.

You're going to love this one, NCT.

Mrs. Vineyarddawg’s grandmother’s 80th birthday is that Saturday.

Seriously.

All right, you get a pass, . . .

. . . but, if NCT continues his “FYG” theme in reply to your reason, we may have a moment right out of Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15 (1971).

Seriously, though, stay safe.

Go 'Dawgs!

And in any event ...

I’ve been too distracted by St. Crispin’s day to carry on with the F’ingY…

Be safe, man...

and FYG (as in Gaddafi)

I almost posted on your FB about this one

then i realized I am not really posting anything anywhere. I am simply too astounded by all of it, how it happened, how we proceeded, the timing, the strategy, on and on. In one month Gaddafi will climb out of his hole and stick his tongue out.

I have studied war, the history of war, how to make war, geo politics, et all.

And I am simply dumbfounded by everything we have done since Aug 9, 1945.

I'm catchin' your drift...

It’ll take “boots on the ground” again…it better not be ours.

I hear everything you're saying

I will not pretend to comprehend because my ass is safe at home but God bless you for your commitment and your strength to do what you do. Thank you.

Well i hope my excuse elicits a more favorable response

I would love to come, and hope to plan to do so maybe next year. But right now i’m not only in the middle of school and the next DGD of this millennium will hopefully be only a few weeks old, so traveling will be limited. But don’t worry i’m sure i’ll have a few dawgs around to shoot the breeze with on here.

Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.
