Football Jersey update and VOTE on ESPN

First, a quick update on some old questions. Back in February I started this blog with a post in which I asked whose jersey will be the new best seller in the UGA bookstore (or any stores in general). I stopped by the on campus store the other day and aside from #7 and #24 jerseys being on sale, I noticed some #8s and #35s as well. So it looks like AJ Green and Rennie Curran's jerseys are already being featured in the store. I looked on the UGA Bookstore website and those jerseys aren't listed online, but I swear I saw them there. I think they had them in red and in black.

Oh, and the bookstore is also carrying Stafford's new Detroit jersey and Moreno's Broncos wear.

In other news, ESPN is doing their "50 States Tour," and they are devoting each episode to a different state's college football programs. They discuss the greatest coaches, players, and teams in each state's history. Well, Georgia's day is coming up in a couple of weeks (July 27), and they already have the polls online to vote for the best in Georgia.

So go vote and try to stop the Techies from making it look like Tech is the best program in the state.

Of Blog Starts and Jerseys

Well, here is the brand new, likely to be a disaster Dancing in the Endzone blog debut. I find myself spending way too much time making long, analytical reports to post on Georgia football message boards, only to find my posts become thread killers and disappear into the archival wastes. Now, with this blog, I can waste my time putting those posts somewhere I can keep track of, and hopefully, people will come on here to comment and discuss some in depth Georgia topics. So please do leave some words in the comments section. Other than that, I don't know what else to say other than welcome....

But let's just jump right into the good stuff.

The other day, I found myself walking into the UGA Bookstore (on campus) to buy some staples for a mini stapler. Interestingly enough, little tiny boxes of staples can be found in the very back of the store, which is about a mile walk. But that's not the point.

The point it, I noticed all of the old #7 and #24 jerseys gathering dust on the racks. I couldn't help but wonder, "When are they going to take these old ones out and put some new ones in?" But then I thought, "Wait... which jersey numbers are they going to replace them with?"

Will #14's show up in a few months, after our fearless new leader Joe Cox puts on a great performance at the G-Day Game? Maybe #8's seem like the most likely, considering AJ Green already has cemented himself in freshman phenom lore. Could #4 or #6 show up in the fall, depending on the playing time and what we see from Caleb King and backup QB Logan Gray? Or will some other number, that no one has noticed as much, become the new trend for the Bulldog Nation, as a new leader and Bulldog icon will rise forth before 93,000 cheering fans?

Interesting questions that only time will tell. I'm curious to see what others think.
