    I predict 7-5 or 6-6.

    Early on our offense struggles and Butch completely botches the ensuing QB controversy - caving into public pressure at every opportunity.

    Defense holds up reasonably well, and we end up Independence Bowl or Liberty bowl champs. And how in the hell can you fire a guy who has taken us to 4 straight bowl championships?

    The only game I am actively preparing to watch this year is our first game, the one against Tech. After that, I will probably only see a game if I happen across it while sitting on the couch.

    But who am I kidding, I know I will end up watching 80% of the games. But I plan on using my saturdays a bit better than watching that shit sandwich being made.

    I will watch every game. At least, early on.

    Don't get in the habit of running errands or going to movies during Tennessee games....it'll spoil you from ever going back.

    I pretty well dvr every game now unless it's on in the evening. We pretty much go to the lake every weekend from June until October and I would rather be out with the family in the water than inside watching a shit show. I watch the games later at night (if it's worth it).

    Sincerely, good for you. That sounds like a better way to spend your weekends. I hope everyone wears sunblock.

    Funny you say that. I got toasted last weekend. I forgot to put sunblock on and got burnt pretty good. I usually put something on but the sun was out off and on and it was breezy (very decieving). It was a major lesson learned. Kiddos are always covered. Mom is crazy about them having sunblock on. Only burn I plan on getting the rest of the year is the one Butch gives me when we lose to a shitty team.

    Ya, I am pretty diligent but I messed up last weekend too. I was back in Colorado and hiking at 13,000 ft. My forehead is a lot paler and a lot bigger than it was the last time I did that. One application was not enough.

    Especially at 13,000 feet. It is always interesting to look at someone like the Tibetans that live their entire life at high altitude. By the time they are 45 their faces look like wrinkled shoe leather.

    Being sun burnt definitely sucks badly.

    A day after the summer solstice, too. Ya, white folks burn in about 5 minutes up there. Black folks burn in about 15. If you notice, Tibetans wear a lot of hats for a reason!

    Wife comes home this morning from the gym and she says she met a UT player interning at the gym. Said his name was Elliot Something.





    It was Elliot Berry.

    Ooooh, ooooh, what do I get to appropriate? Judging by my credit score it's your good credit.

    Since 1995, I think I have missed watching or listening to two games live. One due to a wedding (State 07) and the other because of a men's retreat last year (SC Jr.).

    Only way that will change this year is if boy's football schedule interferes, and I'll still probably have headset on.

    I was pretty close to that. I think Wyoming in 2008 was the last one I'd missed until 2016. I missed a bunch last season.

    I miss the first game most seasons due to vacation but I catch every game after that.
