OT: Deadspin or Reddit or Foursquare-chan-net? MSU Desktop Background?

[CochiseCowbell]

Would one of you fine internet-savvy gentlemen do me a favor and re-post the link to the desktop backgrounds with Dak? I thought they were from one of the sites mentioned in the title. I searched the interwebs, this site, and went through six pages of posts and found nada.

Thanks in advance.

Awesome. Thanks. Too much gaudy UGA red and black around this office.

Be sure and tell those UGAs that we had a bulldog first

I am also surrounded by them. They actually aren't so bad. They hate Auburn and Florida and Alabama.

They do get irritated when I point out that we had our first bulldog in 1935 whereas they got theirs in like the mid 50s. They get so mad because they really feel that they are the REAL bulldogs...

Half of them are bearable. The other half, and all of the sidewalk fans, are truly clueless. When I lived in Athens and State came through town for a weekend SEC baseball series, even students there didn't realize we were in the same conference. Most only care about one sport: not football, but only UGA football. They don't follow professional teams of any leagues; only one team, one sport, once a year.

And yes, they still had a goat as a mascot when we adopted the bulldog as ours. They don't like being reminded of that.

Don't forget our first association with the bulldog in an article predates theirs by almost a decade. My parents live in Watkinsville, and I enjoy referring to State as "the original bulldogs" during my visits.

My ex-brother-in-law is a Georgia football season ticket holder. I took him to the SEC baseball championship game. He told me he didn't even know the SEC had baseball. Heck, he didn't even know the Georgia players from yesteryear, and could barely name the players they have today.

Some more fun trivia...

We were also the Aggies and had the colors "MARON and WHIT" before TAMU. As PJ the Clemson fan learned, many A&M schools were modeled after good ol' Misipi A&M college.
