Homesick?

Regular visitors to the ol' sportslady blog will no doubt recall that I wasn't particularly fond of my time spent in Georgia. Sure, there were good times (like Music Midtown, which, sadly, is now defunt), but there were also bad times, like the crazy hours I worked at two evil stations which shall remain nameless.

But every now and then, something happens which makes me miss my time in C-Town. Like a month ago, when I had my first encounter with USF's head football coach. The encounter lasted a whole ten seconds, and I learned quickly that he's a self-important ass with the social skills of one of Michael Vick's pitbulls. I think back to how lucky I was to cover Auburn University. Tommy Tuberville is a class act, and Auburn will always be one of my favorite teams because of him.

And then, there's this: A little video I stumbled across on YouTube.


I miss obscenely-dancing mascots. This one, actually, is pretty tame, compared to some of the dancing mascots I saw back in the Peach State. If you can't watch someone in a fuzzy costume perform dance moves that would get them arrested anywhere else, then what's the fun of high school football?
