This was originally a post to bump the Queen hype/highlight video, but I just kept drinking & thinking; a great combination, I know.

This is fantastic. Just watched this again 3 times in a row enjoying some adult beverages.

A few thoughts & questions:

1) Unfortunately, I've only made the UF game this year & should've made the trip for the A&M game, yet I balked. But, I didn't see the video & I'll never be in my seats 45 minutes before kickoff.

2) The song with the sight of Nick Bell's mother ringing that bell made it dusty around here...

3) Which brings me to my next question; can any of y'all tell me if pictures of players immediately after that are also of those we lost tragically too early, or not? To me it looks like footage of Smoot, Willie Blade, Cam Lawrence, & J. Hughes with his dad, Tony, after a game clinching INT. And they're all still kicking as far as I know. I'm probably looking too deep into this.

4) I took a break to shave my pate mid-post to Queen. I'll never understand those who try to hold on when time & genetics are against them. I'm 36 & have taken a razor to my scalp for a decade.

5) This bullet point is the transition from drinking to drunk thoughts.

6A) Wizard, I made a jovial post in the Hype video thread. My heart goes out to you, brother in maroon. I'll not offer advice nor admonish you, for I've yet to wed. I've only briefly dated those who were adverse to sports.

6B) The aforementioned UF game I attended, I brought my girlfriend, a "die-hard" sidewalk UGA fan. My folks, who have the season tickets, hosted her fabulously. After the loss she said, & I quote, "It's hard to be a State fan."

6C) I have issues with her older sister (younger than me...I'm robbing the cradle) who sees herself as the matriarch of the family. I'm not wavering. If this is to work & continue forward, I'll not be a pawn or be an inconsequential number in their large family, where they do EVERYTHING together.

6D) My gf's 3 year old loves listening to State baseball games with me via one of my earbuds.

7) TMI in number 6.

8 ) I'm disappointed as 17 with this season, as we all are. However, I'm hopeful for the future.

9) That video, though!

10) Aeris Williams will gash Bama for 5 yards per carry & Fitz will find open receivers down field.

11) Buck Fama! Hail State!

12) CJ Sirmones is still open at the 15!

RIP CJ.

Yep CJ is still open! Great video! First date with my future wife was the Jackie Sherrill Texas game. Sitting at the game and sweating like a ***** and she said it would be nice for a rain. I laughed and said there’s not a cloud in the sky! We were on the west side and the bottom fell out!
The greatest moment ever was the crowd going crazy and the players looking up at the crowd and not a soul left. We whooped that ***! Now to make you feel better I’m 9 years older than my wife and we have been married 25+ years. Sometimes a man has to find a girl that loves State and realizes she married a kid. We have 2. One graduating from State and another on the way and I’m still the luckiest guy in the world.
Lastly Nick Bell and Keizer McGee still make me tear up! I’m a blessed Natty light beer drinking State fan

Couldn't agree more. If you are going bald, then do yourself a favor and cut it all off.

I'm speaking from personal experience here. Trust me . . . it will feel strange for the first couple of hours after you shave it off, but you'll get over that quickly and you won't regret doing it.

You young folk shouldn't forget Rodney Stowers when talking about players lost. Jackie lost two while he was coaching us.

Yeah. That was a tragedy. Broke his leg in the Florida game and died from an embolysm. My brother's girlfriend at the time went to HS with him and just loved him. He was just coming into his own as a great player for us too. He had a bright future.
