A driver who was pulled over on suspicion of DUI told deputies that he played football for the Gators and asked if that would affect his situation.
It didn't, and the driver wasn't really a Gator.
Interestingly enough, when I was a student at the University, I was stopped for jaywalking in Athens. While the Clarke County officer wrote me a ticket, I told him I was the backup placekicker for the Bulldogs. The officer proceeded to arrest me for crossing the street on a suspended license, giving a false name because I told him my name was "Kyle" when Kyle is actually my middle name, and emerging from a sidewalk.
(I kid, I kid . . . but it sure tells you something about the culture in Gainesville, doesn't it?)
Go 'Dawgs!

It really just tells you about an idiot.
It’s more telling that some cop knew to tell this to a reporter.
hahahaha

This reminds me, though. (Apologize for thread-jacking…)
Did Rep. Corrine Brown find a way to pass a bill declaring today Gator Day? Literally everywhere I turn I’m surrounded by jort-wearing douchery.
ESPN ran a special all day reporting from Gainesville every single time a Florida player ate bacon or read a book…
The AJC comments sections (I know, I know… it’s a guilty pleasure, I’m sorry.) on their practice posts were completely trolled all day by gators…
The ESPN SEC blog, (usually a good read for 6-7 posts/day covering ALL the teams in the conference) had THIRTY EIGHT posts today about the Gators! (and not all from that greasy-haired chump Jesse Palmer that was reporting.)
Even my gator friends (if you can call them that) on facebook were particularly mouthy on my wall today…
After all of that, I come here looking to feel good about the Dawgs (regrettably) and maybe lol at some posters from a lesser state school a couple of times, and there’s more Gator news.
For an 8-5 team, you’d think they just won the MNC, Super Bowl, Stanley Cup, World Cup (Men’s, Women’s, Rugby, etc.) all in one day.

Yea, I had no idea why ESPN was sucking up to florida so much.
The showed some UF lines drills, and it was a bad camera angle, no story, and Jesse Palmer acting like he knew something. Then coach boom was running around screaming (yes, seriously, running and screaming all of the place like a wild man).
I think they are getting their trash talk out early, because they have that LSU, Bama, Auburn, UGA stretch that is going to crush their hearts.

I think it may have something to do
With half their CFB on-air talent being UF alumni.

But is good to see Larry settling in.

Larry - ha
I thought he looked like an idiot. But that would be consistent with his performance.

Culture?
Maybe Damon Evans could have gotten a pass if he had claimed to be the UF AD instead of Jawja’s. Local temperature 100, humidity 100%, homerism 100%, cultures run about the same, just a different Petri dish.
