First Loss

The University of Tennessee just lost to arch-rivals the University of Florida. So much for the quest for the national championship. Going undefeated is pretty much the only way to win that objective anymore — and that means beating tough opponents along the way. Vol fans can still hope for an SEC championship but will need some help along the way.

Massive depression will strike the entire state of Tennessee and manifest itself all over the place by tomorrow. I’m glad, though, that I bought an orange tie to wear to my court hearing Friday morning.
