My text exchange with my former gator boss
Gator: Congrats on your win! (shocking for a gator fan btw)
Me: Thanks. Couldn't believe the defense held on. Easley is the best defensive lineman I've seen in awhile.
Gator: Your defense didn't hold. Sorry to burst your bubble. Our offense stunk up the joint and couldn't capitalize at all when we got into field goal territory.
Me. Typical gator, the defensive had nothing to do with the turnovers. No pressure or big hits or jumping routes.
Gator: I'm gald you recognize that. You are right. It was mostly our terrible quarterback.
Me: He was atrocious. But averaging 2.8 yards per rush will make you put the ball in his hands on third down.
Gator: We dominated the entire game in every statistical category but turnovers. A couple of the fumbles were obviously caused by the canes but the interceptions were bad throws. The blown 2 point conversion (stupid call) was huge as was the missed 4th and inches (how do you not gain inches). Otherwise we dominated. But the score is all that matters.
Got that win was so sweet yesterday. I swear every gator -- even the few that I can tolerate to be friends with -- has a certain level of smug and self righteousness that is repulsive. i hope they are all balling their eyes out to sweet baby jesus tim tebow today.
