The Vols got back on the winning track tonight, defeating Georgia at home. Thank goodness for that.
And in other good news, Vandy lost. So maybe all the talk show hosts around here will shut up about the lack of respect Vandy is getting and they're not being ranked in the coach's poll.
Of course, Vandy lost to Florida...so there's a downside to everything...

Thank goodness the losing streak is over.
Of course, the win could be costly since our best player got injured.
I mean, it was only South Carolina.
But, it's still a win....Labels: basketball

SI seems to think so. (I wonder if this article was written before our three-game losing streak?)
Of course, it didn't take Memphis fans long to start whining about it. All I have to say is--the Vols have surpassed you guys. They play in a better, stronger conference and have more quality wins which will be helpful come tournament time. So, get over it and go root for the Grizzlies. Oh wait, they stink too....Labels: basketball, tennessee

Chalk up (another) exciting win for the UT basketball team. And in overtime no less!
UT once again shows the wanna-bes in Texas who the real UT is.
This week, the men's and women's teams have swept the University of Texas in basketball.
Kind of an early Christmas present from my team...
GO BIG ORANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- Does anyone else find the sound effects, voices and other such stupid antics that Chris Boomer and Tom Jackson do on ESPN's The Blitz NFL coverage annoying? I was just watching highlights of the Titans game vs Jacksonville and we were subjected to a bad Irish accent when Cortland Finnegan returned the fumble for a touchdown and the Pac-Man eating pellets sounds when PacMan had the ball. I've honestly found Berman's antics annoying for years and it's getting worse and worse. Who in the world told this guy he was funny? Just show us the highlights, please. Keep the annoying sound effects, voices and names to yourself.
- It was a good weekend for my teams. The Vols, Lady Vols, Titans and Redskins all won. Merry early Christmas to me.
- So, going into the Jacksonville game yesterday, I felt pretty sure the Titans were in for a letdown. And while the offense did have an off day, the defense was superb. I am pleased by how the Titans are winning as a team and extremely hopeful for next year. Sure, I'd love to see the Titans make the playoffs this year, but I'm not expecting it despite their success. Honestly, they'd get in and probably hit a wall. I'd rathre see them win out and go into the off-season on a positive note to build on for next year.
