I Bee-lieve…

I Bee-lieve…

Being a Yellow Jacket means something. It means bleeding white and gold every Saturday in the fall. It means urban tailgating and the Varsity. It means listening to Wes Durham pronounce every syllable in Touch-Down-Geor-Gia-Tech! It means remembering #19. It means toasting to Joe and Dez and drinking to forget Reggie. It means having an S.E.C. loss covered on the front page and an ACC win covered on page six. It means having to hear how we’re a nobody and a joke year round. It means having to read national columnists talk about smoke and mirrors and even though the Jackets are better on both sides of the ball the dogs will win because it’s hard to believe a UGA team will have five or more losses. Let me tell you what I Bee-lieve.

I Bee-lieve in Paul Johnson.

I Bee-lieve the Jackets are not a fluke.

I Bee-lieve beating Georgia is the most important thing in the world.

I Bee-lieve I want another shot at the Hurricanes.

I Bee-lieve Josh Nesbitt’s TD in the fourth quarter of the Virginia Tech game is the play of the year.

I Bee-lieve Jonathan Dwyer will lead the league in rushing for a second consecutive year.

I Bee-lieve Demaryius Thomas leads the league in receiving yards and yards per game.

I Bee-lieve Josh Nesbitt leads the league in scoring.

I Bee-lieve Climpsun lost to Maryland (2-9)

I Bee-lieve I’m sick and tired of underachieving and letting the brass ring go by without taking it. I’ve had enough of hearing about how ACC teams can’t achieve great things and to be happy with our season no matter what. The season is not over yet and I won’t be happy until the three yards and a cloud of dust settles.

13-1 2009 ACC Champions and 2010 Orange Bowl Champions

Are you ready to Bee-lieve?

    As announced on Monday Night Football, via Blatant Homerism: He must be a senior, because you need time and maturity to develop into a good professional quarterback.
