    Since I have no real interest in hockey but have Major interest in the Vols and in everything you write, I'd give you the Top Dog Ryan Callahan Award. You Rock! GO VOLS!

    Ha! Thanks, Orange. But trust me, Ryan Callahan of the New York Rangers is definitely better at playing hockey than I am at ... well, probably anything. biggrin

    sarcasm

    Ha! Thanks, Kevin.

    By the way, it appears there have been several relatively famous Kevin Ryans. Which one of these would you say is most closely related to you?

    The one closest is probably the Irish hurler and manager. One I wish I was closest to is probably the former DoubleClick CEO.

    I was thinking you might be most like the guy in the New Jersey general assembly. I definitely could see you being a politician — handing out stickers and buttons, kissing babies and all that good stuff. biggrin

  • SPORTSBALL!!!!

    Excited to head down to Hotlanta and catch the Sweet Sixteen games on Friday. Wearing black so I don't get mistaken for a fan of Kenturkey or Indiana or get heckled by Baylor fans. I'm rooting for Xavier, even though I have Baylor advancing. My bracket's already fubar'd so it doesn't really matter. biggrin

    Ha! Nice. Enjoy the trip. Should be a good atmosphere, especially for the Kentucky-Indiana game.

  • I had to take down all of my Tennessee stuff at work today because they're filming a dumb commercial and think that a bland "Office Space" environment is what people want to see. I opted out of being filmed for it because I think it's crap. I'm also ticked because I have no UT stuff at my desk anymore (It's going back up the moment this film crew leaves)

    Oh my gosh I was coming to say the same thing. I honestly don't know if I want to ever see it or not. Everytime he catches a pass I may just close my eyes. Can we sign Iron Mike up at LB?

    Earlier in the day he said his face hurt and I thought to myself "Ha! wouldn't it be dumb if he got a face tattoo"...then he really did
