yeah, seriously - who were "tigers" first? us or them? the internet doesn't know, at least after a good drunken 10 minutes of searching....

history question (settle a bet)

Posted by tigerkge on 11/26/09 at 1:01 am
sorry if this has been done to death ... i'm a noob auburn fielded their first football squad in 1892; LSU followed a year later. was auburn's squad called "tigers" from the outset? i've read the history of lsu adopting "fighting tigers" as the nickname/mascot/moniker after a louisiana-based ...
[quote]ForeLSU[/quote] you almost got it right. but the bag is a ringer, and it's filled with gary crowton's underpants. expecting the money, and not skidmarks, the official will let the zebras officiating the game know to carry on with plan 2-B: throw the game the Tide's way. if only skip b...

we certainly used to have a wienerschnitzel ... highland rd past the north gates. drive thru open till 3am. i remember the stomach cramps fondly. did they tear it down?...

[quote]Meyer is doing what a coach should do. Anyone saying different is a victim of exactly what he is wanting. Miles would do the same, if he's smart. [/quote] See, I disagree. I think it perpetuates the cavalier attitude in football that a knock on the head isn't a big deal. It would set a m...
Yeah, I can't get on board with this idea that the injury wasn't as bad as everyone thinks. It was very serious. I was skeptical until I saw the vomiting ... that wasn't stomach flu, kids, that was elevated intracranial pressure. And GeauxBob, you're so right, it sets a terrible example, this rus...
[quote]So what are the potential risks to Tebow..just another concussion, coma, death?[/quote] All of the above, as well as permanent disability, paralysis, speech problems, loss of motor skills, stroke, and even more fun stuff like loss of bowel and bladder control. All kinds of stuff the NFL l...
I still want to see some reliable info backing up this claim that the LoL docs have cleared him. Where did you hear that?...
It kind of reeks of gamesmanship, though, don't you think? Most reasonable people with a smattering of medical knowledge (or even common sense) know that TT shouldn't play tonight. Yet the UF machine keeps dangling this possibility out there, to stoke the hype and shift people's focus. He won't p...

You should really eat the gator. Seriously, what's life for, if not to try new things? It's freaking delicious. I'd eat tiger if I could find it....
