HAVE SOME PRIDE AND GET IT RIGHT!

It's 8:25 a.m. and Patrick has crawled under the covers with Junior who is sleeping on a couch downstairs in front of the TV.

I am so tired of media types, either vocally or in print, speaking and writing like trailer trash illiterates.

If I hear "Way back in 1896" or even "back in 1896" one more time, my head will explode. We KNOW 1896 is BACK, you slimeballs! And we don't need your editorial comment on how FAR BACK it is!

While I'm on that subject, NBC or whoever it is, did an abominable job with their coverage of the Olympics. They covered it basically as a neutral observer, not an AMERICAN network--and their GRAPHICS depicting flag and abbreviation of the name of the nation were mostly undecipherable, those that were even legible--You would have had to have a 60" screen to even see them! Assuming you know what the flag of Absurdia looks like or that VBZ stands for Idiotica Commonwealth... Really amateurish! Oh well...

Coaches poll comes out today. Gators need to drop off it.
