Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

Threatening murder on a sports message board - very cool, very normal. Taking a tongue in cheek comment on a message board to seriously. Very normal, very cool. The worst harm you would come away with is probably a hangover from some high gravity, Savannah brewed beers. Sounds much more fun than ge...

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

Going 7-5 and beating your rival is better than winning the conference and being ranked. You don’t have to convince me! Ignorance is bliss I guess. Being happy after Going 10-3 and 8-4 and beating your two rivals two years in a row after going 5-7 and 4-10 is a good thing and far from ignorant my f...

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

Think I’m alright here pal Organically: used in this sense of the word means to come about naturally and not by force Stolen: something taken into possession via illegal means. Exactly where did I miss on these terms sir/m’am? You said it came about organically, PAL, then said it was taken from UGA...

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

I didn’t justify anything because we don’t have to. The fact is the man that created the mantra brought it to the program he created. How can you imply that was taken? Sounds more like it was given. Also what’s your definition of stolen? Let’s hear the origins of App States use of GATA in the 90s? I...

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

Our traditions came about organically and were not “stolen”. GATA with out a doubt was brought to Statesboro by Erk Russell from his UGA days. Way back in the early 80s...not mid 90s. Our School busses and uniforms were a result of not having two pennies to rub against each other (athletic tape had...

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

I never said it was taken from UGA. I said Erk brought it with him from UGA. He came up with it by rearranging GTAA during the GT vs UGA game one year. GTAA stood for Georgia tech athletic association and he switched them around and told everyone it stood for Get after Their Asses. Given that he was...

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

Agree 1,000%. We're better than that and it's also too much like the low-class, tacky GATA thing Ga Southern has. Looks like we're trying to copy them on something. GATA was actually something started by the early/mid 90's App team and was stolen by Georgia Southern when they rekindled the rivalry....

Re: Appalachian Unpopular Opinions

The whole "sandpaper their asses" line was fun and awesome, but I don't want it to become any kind of slogan going forward as it'll become cringe worthy. Agree 1,000%.
