Doc’s Football Fashion Follies


by Doctor S
August 26, 2009

We admit it. Doctor S is obsessed with uniforms. With the threats that pour in every year (especially from Hattiesburg) after his SWAGs, you'd think he was dissin' the quarterback's grandmama or something. No, but he does believe that the way a man dresses matter.

«DO: Keep rocking those dreadlocks. Just keep your helmet on when it matters. Oh, and WINNING is like the perfect little black dress. Of a fashion.

»DO: Remember that in football, it's all about swagger and confidence. Coach Nutt has that part figured out, anyway.

«DON'T: You know what they say: Keep the eye on the ball, not on the bling.

»DO: Now that they have the bothersome logo problems solved, Ole Miss has achieved uniform perfection. As for State, the new maroon helmets make it imperative to avoid all-maroon uniforms when they play in Starkville.

«DON'T: Going green is trendy, but looking plain-old-plain ought to be against the law.

»DON'T: That is not gold, it is yellow. It is ugly. And when the Eagles go the all-yellow or all-black route, they scare small children. Or at least Doctor S.

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Izzy: it's not enough to just study something - at some point you have to act. Systematic exclusion can be read as hatred, even when those involved in it do not feel it to be that. This is ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
J.T.: Wintrhop, your last sentence "I don't want a small and manageable God. I prefer one that I can't fully understand." bears out that we each have perceptions of God. And, when the ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Wintrhop Sargent: Funny you should mention the gender issue of a deity. I was at lunch with a St. Andrews priest one time and a very conservative member of the Cathedral came to our table ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Izzy: I wouldn't be too sure your church doesn't preach hate if your liturgy is not gender-inclusive. Think about it - is God really a "He" or a "Father"? Those are some images or visions of ...

ladd: A fail-safe principle I've always sworn by: If the Kluckers agree with me about something, I need to rethink it.

[Doyle] From Dixie, With Love
Goldenae: I would truly be ashamed of myself if I looked at life and others the way the some people do. Some folks can not put themselves in another person's shoes to save their lives. It is ...
