So this is the weekend I hate every year. Last year I talked about the best things of the greatest cocktail party on earth and this year, it is going to be one painful game to watch. Not only are these teams struggling more than they have in years(and may I add what an incredible change Mark Richt and the Bulldogs have done since my last blog post!), but they have very similar records and very similar motivations. Both Florida and Georgia can play for the SEC championship despite their dismal records. Florida is in the driver seat and controls its destiny, while Georgia basically needs to win out and get another loss from South Carolina. Regardless, they both have a chance which means, who has a slight advantage of me cheering for them this year? Lately, the Tebow factor gave the Gators a slight edge over Georgia, plus Florida was having an opportunity to play for the National Championship. When David Pollack was with Georgia, they had a slight advantage, and so on.... Literally this year is going to be a celebration and despair on each play. Quite a bittersweet feeling when these teams are both your favorite. If you think it is hard on me, ask my parents! They can't really even watch the game together as one must watch upstairs and the other downstairs. Honestly, my dad has played a lot of golf on this day so we shall see if he decides to actually sit down and watch the game this year. Oh well, at least I get to eat nachos and a chick-fil-a biscuit in celebration of my first weekend home with Robert! I do love Saturdays in the fall regardless of what awaits for me at 3:30pm on CBS!
