Off topic because I can't sleep ... I was listening to 104.5, (Nashville's sport radio), yesterday and one of the media guys was wearing his orange down in no-gain-ville. He said on every other pre-game visit there had always been lots of smack talk sent his way, but this time the gay-turd fans hadn't said jack to him. Just like many have posted here, the gay-turds are worried. On a negative note, 50% chance of thunderstorms with 10 - 15 mph winds forecasted, but at least it's suppose to be mostly cloudy ... which should hold down the temp.

GO VOLS ... BEAT THE GAY-TURDS!!!

50% chance of thunderstorms... Oh heck! Just think how many times this series has been flipped in mid-game by weather. This fan just wants to see where we are as a team right now--without any meteorological mischief.

As for Dooley's "pantaloni d'arancione"... it's nearly impossible to get two different materials to appear the same shade of orange on TV. The best you can do is color them differently so they appear the same from a given camera distance (which is why field-level cameras reveal the orange on our helmets is actually darker than the jerseys).

It takes money & expertise to get it right--and if you're gonna represent a multi-million dollar, major university football program on national TV wearing orange pants, you can't show up looking like John Daly on the first tee at the Wednesday Pro-Am.

(...or looking ready to offer a sa-lute to Chestnut Flat, Tennessee from the "Hee-Haw" cornfield.)

A man walks a fine line in orange pants. The Doolander walks fine by me.
