Georgia Used Fake Spy

[TigerOne 895]

From The Huntsville Times

"You always hope to play in the SEC Championship Game,'' Georgia athletic director Damon Evans told the Huntsville Quarterback Club Tuesday night. "But sometimes, it's not all bad if you don't.''

"One day in practice leading up to the Auburn game, the players noticed somebody hiding in a tree, filming the workout. Suddenly, a police car pulled up. A cop rushed the tree, hauled the cameraman down, clamped him in handcuffs and drove him away.

The players lustily cheered the arrest of the spy.

"To this day,'' Evans said, "the players still don't know that Coach Richt hired the guy and set that up.

"Sometimes, gimmicky things work.''

I'll verify that this is true. A co-worker was telling me about this before it even happened. Apparently his brother is a huge Auburn fan that lives in Athens. His brother is also a former small college coach who knew someone on the staff. To make a long story short, the guy called his brother asking to borrow a Auburn hat so they could put it on this "spy."

Has Richt been possessed by the devil? Does he need an exorcism?

I'm not kidding. Does he need help? Has his family turned on him? Did UGA make an evil clone?

How did Mark Richt go from being a respected man of class to being one of the most pitiful son of a bitchasses in the game?

If he gets one, I am stuffing that Devil right back into him

This seems completely flabbergasted - hiding in a tree? Arrested? And it comes out now.... riiiiiiiiiight.

If you were going to spy.......why would you sport a hat with a logo of the team you are providing the info to?

If I was spying, I would wear a bammer hat. If I got caught/arrested, and my picture made the newspaper/TV; that would instantly throw a 'bad light' on bammer.

There are some real scholars on that UGA team if they actually fell for this.

Typical reply from a Dawg fan. Win at all costs, and look like a bunch of thugs while doing it. I CAN'T WAIT for revenge. I will happen

[SouthLink02 8]

It hope not

At least he didn't throw a dummy off the roof of a building. And oh yeah, they kicked our arse. So whatever works as long as it's not underhanded. And I see no problem with using a little skit to fire up the team. Pretty creative.
