Eating my words?

Tennessee is playing for the SEC championship next week! I already have four tickets that I bought before I knew whether the East representative would be Tennessee or Georgia. I live in Atlanta, and I figured it'd be fun to watch the Tigers whip up on the Puppies if nothing else.

Who'd have thought a month or two about that being a possibility? Not me, certainly. In fact, I have been one of UT coach Phil Fulmer's harshest critics this season. Among other things:

  • I said the program had jumped the shark and lost the confidence of the fan base
  • I made a list of ten possible replacements for him.
  • I made what would have been an offensive Photoshop image of him if it had actually been remotely creative or funny.

Now that Tennessee's football team has shown all the toughness and determination in the world to win five straight and cinch a berth in the title game, it's possible I'll be eating those words soon. Literally.

If Tennessee beats LSU next week and wins an SEC title, I will print out the following three blog posts and eat them on video, and post that video to YouTube:

You'll need to give me two or three days after Tennessee wins (if Tennessee wins) to make the video, as I won't likely have time or energy to do it the day of. I'll be too busy celebrating!

Regardless of what happens next week, I'm just glad Georgia doesn't get to play for the title.

Yet another reason to root for Tennessee
That will be quite fun to watch! You probably won't have to, but . . . .
Go Vols!

Wait...
...is that honest bad talk about the team?  I thought we gave up on the 'intentional' bad-talk!?
