    Dude I've been teared up all week. Between all the awards, the Cannon family letter, and then to cap it off with the Heisman last night I have been a crying machine(well almost). I'm 62 years old and have been a Tiger fan as long as I can remember. I thought the NC in '03 would be best ever moment as a Tiger, and even in '07, but this year...THIS WEEK... and to think there is even more to come...it has been totally off the charts. If we win the NC and I were to die the next day I could have been any happier going my grave as a Tiger fan. As has been said before, I only wish Billy Cannon were here to see it.

    I know I can just like this. But this is too well said to.

    I remember as a young boy watching Brian Piccolo movie and it was very moving for me. I wanted to solve all the world's problems right then and there.

    A Facebook fundraiser has raised $75K (and growing) for the local food pantry because of that speech.

    Edit... now up to $170K.

    We have been waiting for Joe for a long time, and I think we got a great one based on his speech.

    I don't think so, I have seen Coach O wear one as well.
