    Before Georgia State, O’Neal worked in the personnel and recruiting department at Georgia.
     

    So….why did he leave Georgia?

    To go work for Georgia the state, not just Georgia the university.

  2. My dad is a former Marine and I grew up in Marine Corps/Navy bases.  My dad likes all those Navy boys.  Every time he needed to go someplace to fight, those fellas always gave him a ride.

    Go Navy!

    My first CDs were Tears For Fears "Songs From The Big Chair"

    I was a late adaptor to CDs, and I don't even remember hearing about them or seeing them in my local music shops around the 1985 time frame.  But this was one of my favorite cassettes as a kid in the mid-80s.

  4. 45:  Believe It Or Not (Theme from Greatest American Hero)

    Cassette:  Michael Jackson's Thriller (as a gift), Billy Joel's An Innocent Man (first purchase with my own money)

    CD:  Depeche Mode's Songs of Faith and Devotion

    Download:  No clue

    Where the Streets Have No Name/Joshua Tree.

    Not necessarily my favorite, but one of the best and most iconic in my opinion, on an album that is on most lists of best albums of all time.

    “Welcome to the Jungle” (GNR’s Appetite for Destruction)

    I wish I could go back in time as 12-year-old South Austin and hear this opener for the first time.  It can still give me a charge.  It was during the rise of the 80s hair bands, but those guys and that song kicked ass in a way that the likes of Poison, Motley Crue, Skid Row, etc. never could.

    This would be a typical Texas Dem self-own. In a year with a lot of Republican headwinds, with no Trump on the ballot to juice R turnout. A smart, sassy black woman would do more to juice MAGA turnout than Cornyn or Paxton could ever dream of doing on their own. 

    Yep, that's still where we are in Texas.  James Talarico is the best shot the Dems have.  White guy who talks about Jesus a lot.

    Arch needs to play more games. Every game he gets more confident. If he gets injured well he gets injured. That's football.

    And if Simmons gets hurt well at least it happened in December. 

    Nobody who needs to worry about the draft or an imminent pro career will be playing.

    And heck maybe some of our returning starters who are resting injuries might not play either. It is a chance to see who our starters for next year will be.

    The 2022 Alamo Bowl against Washington was just about as meaningless as this game, and I recall all of our starters played a full game, save for Bijan who had already declared for the draft and was a projected Top 10 pick.  Maybe players like Arch and Simmons take a different approach.  But if a team decides to play in a bowl game, I don't think it's good for the team if healthy players who will be returning in 2026 decide to opt out.

    I love the thought of Senator Jasmine Crockett.  Imagine her questioning a trump nominee for any position.  My only concern is whether she can win a statewide seat in Texas?  Redneck, racist, sexist Texas.

    She'll get creamed.
