Some Damn Good News



Well good news Gator fans. After suffering the devastating blow that was the season opener against Hawaii being played at 12:30 to accommodate Raycom sports, lady luck has smiled on us today.

The second game of the season, against the University of Miami, will be played at 8 p.m. and featured on none other than ESPN -- the WORLDwide leader in sports.

We may sweat our collective asses off in the sunshine seats for game one but a night-game, in The Swamp, against a quality opponent, on high-definition television is well worth it.

On a side note, the fact that we have to accommodate Raycom Sports for anything is a damn shame. Besides the fact that they have low-rent announcers, questionable camera work and the picture quality of the lunar landing, it's just embarrassing to be associated with that trash. They should be calling pee-wee hockey in Fargo, Minn. And even that would be a great disservice to those poor kids.

Go Gators! The U at night, in The Swamp, is truly a godsend. May the drinks flow early and often in celebration of righteousness and college football.
