    I got this email from a colleague in Atlanta:

    "I just wanted you know that Les Miles gets my vote for the Sportsmanship of the Year award for calling a fake punt (and converting it) leading 38-3 with 8 minutes left in the Chick-fil-a-Bowl game.
    Happy New Year!"

    My response:

    "Paul Johnson should have kept his mouth shut at the press conference.

    Also, Troy led LSU by 28 in the 4th quarter and we came back to win. With that juggernaut of an offense at Ga Tech, you can't play it safe. :)"

    Les was only trying to ensure that no more of his defensive lineman got chop blocked. Safety supercedes GT's feelings every time. Thats what I would have told him, with a few choice words about classless rednecks thrown in there

    Ah, yes.

    I remember those days fondly.

    Sausage, Turkey&Provolone, Meatball&Provolone were exceptional also.

    When i was at USL we had to move out of the dorm for the summers and we rented the house right next door to the Old Tyme Grocery. Man that brings back memories.
