Well, there have been a lot of strong words and emotions thrown around in these Deep South Smack Talk posts this year. We’ve had Alex call the Dawgs “Pop Warner wanna-be’s” and The Vol Abroad question my parenting skills. This is to be expected when debating the merits of SEC football teams. I don’t think [...]

Deep South Smack Talk: My Friend The Enemy
In celebration of the imminent humiliation for the state’s flagship university, I’m happy to present an expanded Florida Hate Week edition of Deep South Smack Talk. Speaking for the evil swamp lizards, we have my oldest friend and occasional A Free Man commentor, Jamie. He and I went through high school together and despite his [...]
A properly peeved pirate
Be forewarned, I’m a little pissed off today. So much so, in fact, that my hatred of the Florida Gators is going to have to sit the bench for a bit.
In the past week or so, the music blogging community has been thrown into a state of confusion and fear by a burst of heavy [...]

In Defense of Dads
I got bogged down in the perfect storm of work obligations last week, resulting in a weekend spent almost exclusively writing lectures, exams and reports. The only thing that kept me from becoming A Bitter Man was that I managed to wrangle myself a day off on Tuesday. A free midweek day with Boy Z [...]

What’s that you say, sonny? Elmo? Who now?
Teaching kids that were born the year I graduated from high school is sometimes a slightly demoralizing experience. I like to consider myself a relatively “cool” guy – down with the kids, so to speak. But nearly every day my students come up with some bit of slang that just mystifies it entirely. Clearly they [...]

With apologies to William Shakespeare, Kat Stratford and poets everywhere:
I hate the way you cannot count and blame you for the last eight years.
I hate your endless strip malls. I hate your garish beachfront condos.
I hate your big flying roaches and all your violent crime.
I hate you so much it makes me sick — It [...]
Florida Hate Week
It’s nothing personal. Hell, I spent most of my childhood in the Sunshine State and I’m not much of a hater, really. But there’s another election to screw up around the corner and – more importantly – The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party on Saturday. So, this week – with apologies to my fellow Floridians [...]

Florida Hate Week begins today.
Go Dawgs! Sic ‘em!
