My comment to them was Yes life is to short when you are from Vandy, it takes along time to beable to play with the big boys. Daddy winked, momma chuckeled, but the dd did NOT like it. Oh well.
Oh, snap!

It's almost Football Time in Tennessee!!

I am ready for the long weekend - and I had SO hoped to be living in Maryville by football season!! Football time in Tennessee would have been so much more fun up there.

Oh well, maybe Christmas.....

Football is very serious up here, problem is I am a Miami Dolphin fan and they dont show a lot of Dolphin gamesAnd I will whisper real quiet "Gators"

You know, coming from Baltimore, we had the Ravens local to us (for NFL) but even the fan support we saw there compares NOTHING to TN and their love for their VOLS!!

However, I am not a Raven's fan, I am a Steelers fan (ooh, the colors did't work too well on that one!), have been since I was a kid

But I am really getting into College football and am proud to be in the land of the Vols! So excited for the season to start!!

Maybe I can host a ame at the new place!!

Mystic, you are so right, its serious business up here, I do cheer for TN except when they play FL, just love Tim Tebow, I probably would give up the Gators if it werent for Tim

I have to find someplace that has several TV's that has the football ticket and where I can go watch the Dolphins when they play, if anyone knows let me know, not a Bar please, sports bar would be okay if its a nice one.

I have season tickets to Maryville High School football. Tomorrow night is Maryville vs Alcoa! MHS hasn't lost a game in 4 years but I am actually worried about tomorrow night. Our Maryville Rebels flag is flying at our house. The seniors are all tailgating tomorrow. I can't wait to see everybody there!

I went to Neyland Stadium last night to a function in the West Skybox. Football is definitely in the air! I bought a new necklace and straw sun hat for next Saturday! Gosh, I love wearing funky orange stuff!



And one of my favorite songs this time of year. I can't think of TN football without thinking of John Ward. Sing it Kenny.

Terrific necklace and hat, SMG. I am sure the VOLS will play as good as you look!! They all beg you to sit on the back of a convertible!

I bought an orange sweater today - just in case . . .

Look for me up in the nosebleed section. That is if I can talk one of the kids into selling his ticket.

Hik - you will have a ball I am sure decorating your house for the holidays. I can just picture Halloween at your place. What a great yard and setting for that. And we already talked about Christmas; you have the perfect Christmas tree window!
