Georgia State 38 Tennessee 30

This is the OFFICIAL TWITTER account of University of Tennessee FOOTBALL.

This is the last tweet from today’s game.


And that is just PATHETIC.

Georgia State 38 Tennessee 30

Early this morning a boat, one of the Vol Navy,

caught fire


in the Tennessee River next to the football stadium,

and sank.


So yeah. That happened.





Five Murdered, >/= 21 Injured in West Texas Shooting

Three police officers among the wounded. A crazy, random shooting that began at an intersection. The murderer was shot and killed. 

FT Georgia State 38 Tennessee 30

Georgia State 38, Tennesssee 30, F. Not as close as the final score would indicate. This is what the Vols fans wanted when the took charge of the hiring and firing, right?

That's it. The #Vols lose to Georgia State, 38-30, to start their second season under Jeremy Pruitt on an ugly note.

I have watched Tennessee football since I was 3 years old and this is rock bottom. Beyond words. Beyond belief.

Georgia State hands Tennessee its first loss in a home season opener since 1983.

The Vols were 25-pt favorites.

Entering today, SEC teams had won 82 straight as a favorite of 25 or more pts.

It's the largest loss by an SEC team in the last 40 seasons when favored by 25+ pts.
He's right, too.

And . . . the #Vols are trending #1 in the nation on Twitter, embarrassing not only the #SEC, but all university alums.

What a sad day for the Tennessee program.

3:50 PM - 31 Aug 2019

Now you may say, "No shame in losing to Boise!" And I would say "FSU led 24-6 and 31-13." Then you would say, "For shame!"
Let's check in on the "Vols."

Premier League

Only one match left to be played, Liverpool at Burnley.

Manchester United drew at Southampton 1-1. United had a man advantage for the final 17' but couldn't win it.

Swine Chelsea blew a 2-0 lead at the Bridge against Sheffield United. The "Blades" tied it on an own goal in the 89'.

Palace 1 Villans 0.

Lester 3 Bournemouth 1.

Rooks got another point at St. James against 'Arry the Elk 'Ornet.

Hammerheads 2 Tweety Birds 0.

Aymeric Laporte had to be stretchered off today for City. That is a defensive blow.
Full Time Manchester City 4 Brighton 0. King Kev in the 2’, King Kun with the brace and Bernardo Silva late.

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

City 4 Brighton 0, 79'

Bernardo Silva gets the Angels a fourth!
goal
Manchester City 3
Brighton 0
57'

11 a.m. Advisory

8/31 8 AM EDT: There's been a notable change overnight to the forecast of after Tuesday. It should be stressed that the new forecast track does not preclude Dorian making landfall on the Florida coast, as large portions of the coast remain in the track cone of uncertainty

MIAMI NOT EVEN IN THE CONE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

"Of course,"














Hurricanes are terrible things that destroy billions of dollars of property and kill thousands of people.


"Of course."


















"But maybe,"















If we continue to build homes and communities and cities and live in hurricane disaster areas it's a tiny bit our fault.

A beautiful terror: Dorian lightning.


All hurricane, all the time. I walked out my door this morning, the condo association president is talking to two older women residents. "Are you evacuating?" After court I went to a restaurant to get pick-up, a lawyer friend of mine was there. "How you doin' Pat?" "Ugh. Just watching this thing trying to decide what to do." It's the only thing on people's minds, the only thing we talk about, and it's going to be that way for a full week. All hurricane, all the time: tedious, numbing, draining.
Put this down to things a weird guy notices. I got out of the shower this morning and looked out my bedroom windows and saw complete, utter stillness. Not a breath of wind to stir even the top-most leaves, nor that little bird perched there. Nor was it a fleeting moment. It is still utterly motionless.

I have two things to share tonight before closing. First:







Second:





And two sentiments to add: Thank heaven for little girls. And for those who love them.


Good night.

The Story Must Be Told

This is a very interesting piece on Hurricane Dorian. Imagine: an historical, analytical article on a hurricane! This is why this is the Washington Post.

Hurricane Dorian could strike close to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago — or even his Doral resort

(Miami Herald)

Trumpie, better tell Putin he should leave. Too bad!

Puerto Rico is in great shape with President Trump taking a largely different route than anticipated. Best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico!

By stipulation President George W. Bush suffered a frisson of the moment that no president ever suffered on 9/11/01. I ran across these photographs today on Publocc as I was searching I now forget what. This first, the famous photograph in the Florida school when Andrew Card has given him the news. Bush is a million miles away.


These were taken when he arrived back in Washington. They are exquisitely painful to view and the heart, any human heart, instinctively empathizes with the cataclysm he now faces and the pained, dazed emotions of the man.


Cheney is looking deeply into Bush's psyche. Is he processing information or is he consumed with grief yet.

Consumed with worry. Cheney gives him some distance.

Staring at the television images.

Numb. Lost.


Bush has separated himself from the others. Andrew Card is worried about him and is keeping an eye on him.


Never was there a president more alone in the moment than Bush.


Years later, a Bush self portrait, alone in the shower, examining his soul.

My heart breaks for the man.

Good night.
This is what should be done more often.

Man, this is fun. My goal is to change one word.
The New is letting millions of GREAT people down! We have to start looking for a new News Outlet. Fox isn’t working for us anymore!
