Like y'all don't have any fun stories you can't share.
I'll tell the story in person. But not in print or on the radio. Them's the breaks.
Incentive to come to govols247 gatherings, IMO.

We need more gatherings!
I loved this piece! Great work!

Great article, wonderfully written. Now, about the beaver tails. How about we have them put some stripes around them and call them raccoon tails?

Dear Mr. StockRucker,
You have exceeded all expectations with your most recent endeavor. I enjoyed it immensely and am looking to improving my portfolio with the info. Just when you thought it was already good...247! GO VOLS!

All you had to do was edit the posts and click the box next to "Quote original post in reply" to remove the quoted portions of those posts while leaving the other people's actual posts.
I think you really may be related to Steve Bartman.

What would be the point of leaving people responding to a post that didn't exist, Doofus McMoron?
That would just leave people wondering why some people were angrily replying at nothing, wouldn't it?

Ah Wes, that is my favorite bar in downtown Chatt. I've never actually seen Mr. Belding there, but I've heard that's one of his drinking spots when he's in town. I have met him a few times, great guy! He speaks at UTC once or twice a year too. Did you actually drink with him at CBC or somewhere else like Hair of the Dog or Taco Mac?

CBC only.
I went to all of those bars — my goodness, I loved my time in Chattanooga, and I was younger and worked way less (but for way less money) — but CBS was our main spot.
Tommy at CBC is the best bartender in the free world. If any of y'all head down there, tell him I said hey. He'll remember your name forever after you meet him 1-2 times, and he might even give you the good ol' TFP Sports discount. Dude's a huge Vols, Braves and Falcons fan and an awesome guy.

Beaver Tails LMFAO.

That was what I thought they looked like! As long as CP is playing like that I don't care if he has one hanging all the way down his back!

Maybe Addidas needs to get involved and make one out of the checkerboard pattern like the undershirts!

I don't have enough hair to fill any portion of it. but if they made one I'd stuff it with something and wear it.

Wes, I'll disagree with "a big win in the GA Dome feeling weird". After 6 loses in a row, it felt great! Otherwise, good read! Thanks!

Wes - this may be a week early, but I have to ask...are you still saying (unless I am mistaken) that you cannot pick Tennessee over Florida until they finally do it? I am not saying you are wrong in this regard...just asking.

CBC = Chattanooga Billiards Club. Their main location is downtown, but they have an equally awesome location off Shallowford Rd between Hickory Valley and Lee hwy.
@Wes: just when I think you have brought your 'A' game to the boards, you pull out an article like this and raise the bar yet again. This is why I love this site!!
