Past Scouting Reports

Date: 30 August, 2003
Event:
Clemson v. Georgia
Location: Death Valley, Clemson, South Carolina

Clempson University Band - The only place on earth where purple and orange are fashionable...

Ok, so we're going into Death Valley to this game. I'm trying to figure out why its called Death Valley.

It certainly doesn't look like a desert over there in South Carolina. But I could be mistaken. When I was in New Mexico in March, I didn't see a single stupid cactus. Just a few tumbleweeds and a blizzard. But anyway, apparently the stadium is also called Memorial Stadium. So, if the stadium's a memorial does that mean that bodies are buried under it...and thats why they call it Death Valley? It's kinda like that tootsie roll question. Maybe we just need Mr. Owl to take a huge bite out of Death Valley to find out.

The world may never know...



Final Score: Georgia 30 - Clemson 0


Date: 6 September, 2003
Event:
Middle Tennessee State v. Georgia
Location: Sanford Stadium, Athens, Georgia

MTSU Band of Blue

Wow, these guys are actually coming to Athens for the game. They've even got it on their schedule.

Honestly, I couldn't resist myself....it was too funny last year...

So, back by popular demand, it's the dancing marching band video

This one goes out to Andrea, Alicia, Robbie and Jad. Those four people that told me making another of these videos would be worth my time. This is for you guys.

If your computer won't let you get pop-up windows, press ctrl and then click the link...

Final Score: Georgia 29, MTSU 10



Date: 13 September, 2003
Event: University of South Carolina v. Georgia
Location: Sanford Stadium, Athens, Georgia

The Cock Band

Quite possibly the most disturbing thing I've ever seen was an old woman wearing a t-shirt in Columbia last year that said "You can't lick our cocks." Sometimes you just have to ask yourself why some people are even allowed to breed.

On the plus side, we don't have to visit the upside-down cockroach stadium in Columbia this year.

Final Score: Georgia 31 - Cocks 7

Date: 20 September, 2003
Event: Louisiana State University v. Georgia
Location: Tiger Stadium, Baton Rouge, Louisiana

LSU Fight Song

This has got to be the biggest game we've played so far. We're ranked #7, LSU #10. ESPN thinks this game is important enough for them to bring GameDay to it. Let's hope Lee Corso doesn't jinx us.

Did you ever notice Lee Corso looks like Mel Brooks?


In other news, LSU's band is called "The Golden Band from Tigerland". They've got a dumb name, and they think that purple and yellow go together. These people are almost as color-retarded as Clemson.

They also spell "go" "geaux". They're French! Why do you think they have this outrageous accent, you silly person? Now, go away or I will have to taunt them a second time!


Final Score: This game never happened....

Date: 4 October, 2003
Event: Alabama v. Georgia
Location: Sanford Stadium, Athens, Georgia
Alabama's Million Dollar Band
Apparently they just won the Sudler Trophy this year too. It's all over their website. I think that now makes us, LSU and 'Bama the only recipients in the SEC. And we got it first....

This stuff used to disturb me when I was growing up. If you've never been to a Winn Dixie, you're missing out on the whole line of BAMA food stuffs.

Related: Microscopic Organisms

(dino-fla(jelät´e, -la-´te) , phylum (division) of unicellular, mostly marine algae , called dinoflagellates. In some classification systems this division is called Pyrrhophyta. There are approximately 2,000 species of dinoflagellates. Most have two flagella that lie perpendicular to one another and cause them to spin as they move through the water. Most have walls, or thecae, that are rigid and armorlike and sometimes take on fantastic shapes. The plates that make up these walls are actually located inside the plasma membrane rather than outside, as cell walls are. Some species are heterotrophic, but many are photosynthetic organisms containing chlorophyll a and chlorophyll c. The green of these chlorophylls may be masked by various other pigments. Still other species are symbionts, living inside such organisms as jellyfish and corals. Food reserves are largely starch. Reproduction for most dinoflagellates is asexual, through simple division of cells following mitosis. They are unusual in that in each cell, the chromosomes remain compact between divisions, instead of stretching out into slender threads, as in most other organisms. The chromosomes are constricted at regular intervals and do not have centromeres, or fiber-attachment centers. There is no spindle, yet the very numerous chromosomes are divided equally at the time of mitosis .

The dinoflagellates are important constituents of plankton, and as such are primary food sources in warmer oceans. Many forms are phosphorescent; they are largely responsible for the phosphorescence visible at night in tropical seas. The phenomenon known as red tide occurs when the rapid reproduction of certain dinoflagellate species results in large brownish red algal blooms. Some of these organisms are highly toxic and can kill fish and shellfish and kill or weaken the animals (including humans) that eat them in their turn or, in some cases, are merely exposed to water containing the organisms.

Lulu and Junior. Here's their website. They're the most traveled of all Vol fans.

Vole

\Vole\, n. (Zo["o]l.) Any one of numerous species of micelike rodents belonging to Arvicola and allied genera of the subfamily Arvicolin[ae]. They have a thick head, short ears, and a short hairy tail.

Note: The water vole, or water rat, of Europe (Arvicola amphibius) is a common large aquatic species. The short-tailed field vole (A. agrestis) of Northern and Central Europe, and Asia, the Southern field vole (A. arvalis), and the Siberian root vole (A. [oe]conomus), are important European species. The common species of the Eastern United States (A. riparius) (called also meadow mouse) and the prairie mouse (A. austerus) are abundant, and often injurious to vegetation. Other species are found in Canada.

Helpful Reminder: Voles have more teeth than Vols.
