Well you sure had to think about it long enough!!

If Bama never wins another national championship, the Barn will match our total in the year 2593. Please God, don't let me have a Futurama incident.

Bittersweet

A feeling of happiness or satisfaction with an underlying sadness. It’s bittersweet seeing Word of the Day return. The arrival of this old favorite means the long, slow march of the offseason is underway.

We haven't had a Word Of The Day in like, 2 years! Nice.

I miss you, Javi

The only thing that really sucks about getting these great players with even better personalities is when they have to leave. Javi was FEARLESS——-always made me nervous because he’d never bail on a big hit, and he played so many important roles for us and he reminded me so much of Prothro.

But I don’t miss watching EVERYONE KICK AWAY FROM JAVI. The guy could have lit the record books up if everyone else wasn’t too SCARED to kick to him and play some special-teams football.

Maybe Rolo and Javi and Julio can change their names and we can cheat and bring them back onto the team somehow?

Wait, what am I saying? I guess I’ve been watching Auburn get away with too much not to wonder.

I've used Javy as motivation.

At the gym, sometimes I’ll think – What Would Javy Do?

I did that already.

Churches really eat ’em up. They must be huge Javy fans.

Who isn't?!

He saved us several times over the past few years. Very sad to see out PRs backslide this past year.

Wouldn't want...

…to be unfairly rakish. That’d be mawkish.

If you're feeling really rakish...

Ran into Javy last Saturday

He was at Mugshots in Ttown. Gave him a fist bump and RTR!

I got that beat!

Last week I ran into the dashing, rakishly-handsome… moi. Fuck. I ran into a mirror again. Sorry.

When I typed the above entry...

I was in a tree, armed with my bow, wearing nothing but my camoflage bandana… Juss keeping the neighborhood safe. Freedom isn’t “free,” people! It costs a buck-o-five.

I feel comfortable admitting this to you people because you are my homies and if the police ever DO catch me, I know you’ll bail me out… right?
