What's the Buzz

Since GT has switched to adidas uniforms, Buzz will no longer wear Converse high-tops. The adidas mascot shoes he’s wearing have three stripes on the outside of the shoe, but no stripes on the inside.

Since Tech is trying to have the same gold color everywhere, reportedly Buzz is changing from a yellow bug to gold. The cartoon Buzz colors are changing as well. 

Since July 28 the Braves are 19-10, Washington is 14-14, and Philly is 12-15. The Braves lead in the division is at 3-1/2 games, the widest gap all year. They have 32 games remaining, but only two off days. Six of the final nine games of the season are against the Phillies, including the last three in Philadelphia.   

 

Acuna’s surge drove his stats past those of the Nationals Soto, in seven fewer games. Through Aug 20:

I was able to finish a project yesterday quicker than normal. The results told me I needed to do some work quickly, which meant I worked until after 7 pm. Not fun. Ceil was sick, just laying on the couch. She fixed herself the soup I had gotten for her the night before. I fixed myself two cheese quesadillas, then I had to make a Kroger run for home medicine.

 

At Kroger I saw Robert, the guy who dresses up like an Indian for Braves games. His nephew will be the freshman starting point guard for West Georgia College. Their first game is in Athens against UGA.
