The makings of a very satisfactory first Father’s Day…

Some early morning Father/Son bonding…

During which we were thrilled to see this…

The requisite card…

Two teams, two wins…

And a trip to the beach for lunch…

But most importantly…

It just doesn’t get better.

Father’s day at long last and equal time for nourishing mothers

Regular readers of A Free Man may know that one of my life long quests, much like Superman, is fighting for justice and pointing out inequity when it crosses my path. For example, the fact that Dr. O’C has celebrated two Mother’s Days in her first year as a Mother and I have had no [...]

Easy peasy

Georgia 45
Georgia Southern 21
A good start for your Number 1 Georgia Bulldogs.
Certainly a better start than Joe’s Wolverines had. Ouch.

Game Day: Cake Walk

Today, at long last, marks the beginning of the college football season in the U.S.* It also marks the day that this site makes the temporary transition from well reasoned and researched posts on parenting, music, politics and science to rabidly partisan support of the Number One college football team in the nation, the South’s [...]

The year of the Dawg?

Most NCAA football teams report for practice this week, which marks the beginning of a very special time of year for A Free Man, and A Free Boy. While his Mum is not enamored of this photo, I’m pleased to see that Baby Z is working on his game face for the upcoming season. He’s even [...]

Damn Good Dawg

Friday was a dark day for the Georgia Bulldog Nation as UgaVI passed away just shy of his tenth birthday. Uga VI had the best winning record of any mascot in the school’s history. He will be missed, particularly in the season that Georgia starts at the top of many pre-season polls.

Georgia 41, Hawaii 10

“Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel,
Like I been tied to the whipping post,
Tied to the whipping post,
Tied to the whipping post,
Good lord, I feel like Im dyin…”
-The Allman Brothers – “Whipping Post”
Better a bully than a Sooner. I guess this just goes to show you how absolutely wrong the BCS got it this year. Fortunately [...]

Georgia 31, Georgia Tech 17

Seven in a row over the North Avenue Trade School. It was a wild and weird game – as Georgia – Georgia Tech usually is – but a solid win for the Bulldogs. Senior tailback Thomas Brown was the Big Dawg of the day with 139 yards rushing and one touchdown.
It’s a great way to [...]

Game Day: My Old School(s)

“It was still September
When your daddy was quite surprised
To find you with the working girls
In the county jail
I was smoking with the boys upstairs
When I heard about the whole affair
I said oh no
William and Mary wont do…”
What a year in college football! Both of my alma maters (or is it almas mater) are in the [...]

The Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry

I imagine that every good Georgia Bulldog fan has seen this photo of Uga V trying to take a chunk out of Auburn WR Robert Baker’s midriff thousands of times. That’s just one (of the best) moments in this Southern college football rivalry that started in 1892. These two teams have clashed nearly every year [...]
