Three days before the Tennessee/Alabama game and the local yokels of Doc, Jeff, and Heather in the morning spent nearly an hour discussing where the hi-five originated.
Truly riveting.
Almost as riveting as their discussion the previous day about whether Eric Berry should play some offense for the Vols. The obvious answer to this question is yes, which is probably why none of the three thought so. Old man Deerstone/Dearstone/Dear Idiot, gave the argument that since UT already had Gerald Jones running the shotgun package that there was no real reason to use Berry.
Ignoring the fact that Jones is going to be out for two weeks, plus the fact that although Jones is a good player, Berry is a great one and could contend for the big trophy if he was given the chance to shine like Charles Woodson did for Michigan on both sides of the ball. Ignore those two little details and here's the big one: what are we risking? The team is 3-4 and the season has become the Nightmare before Christmas (about the time we'll be looking for a new coach). What have we got to lose at this point?
The three did not know that Woodson played on offense when he won the Heisman.
Why am I not surprised.
