Dawgs Win Jackets Lose

UGA beat Florida 42-20 in Jacksonville. I boasted about TE Darnell Washington, and he drops two passes. Dude is still a beast. Dawgs added a helmet sticker to honor Bulldog great Frank Sinkwich.

After the game Kirby dedicated the win to Vince Dooley. Always loved that red tie with the helmets.

Perhaps Tech found a QB in their loss at FSU.

Pet peeve: why do so many co-workers back into their parking space? Looks cool, and makes it easier to leave, but the extra time it takes to back in is a waste. Easier to back out of a parking space on the way out.

On the flight to Houston for the World Series, Phillies second-baseman Jean Segura wore his full uniform. Either he was fired up, or he forgot his suitcase. Fun fact: of all active players, Segura had played the most games without making the playoffs.

TIM HUDSON  [SABR Bio] set the Major League record for the longest streak of seasons with 10 or more wins and 9 or fewer losses, with seven straight years 1999-2005. Zack Greinke matched that mark 2011 thru 2017. He won the Comeback Player of the Year award the same year he won the Hutch award, in 2010. The Hutch Award is given each year to a MLB player who best exemplifies the honor, courage and dedication of well-respected MLB player and manager Fred Hutchinson, both on and off the field. He didn’t hit his first major-league home run until he was 34 years old, and thereafter hit one every other season of his career. His HR total was four in his 17 year career. His third career HR had some help.

 

C. S. Lewis: “Never commit your happiness to the future. Happy work is best done by the man who takes his long-term plans somewhat lightly and works from moment to moment 'as to the Lord.' It is only our daily bread that we are encouraged to ask for. The present is the only time in which any grace received.”
