Gate 21

Just an FYI…
Gate 21 is undergoing updates and upgrades today, as Lawvol tries to shift to the newest and fanciest version of Wordpress — Wordpress 2.5.
Thus, it is possible that things might look a bit out of place or generally messed-up during the process. Please bear with us while the “brain trust” tries to [...]

I intentionally waited a few days before airing this complaint, mainly because I didn’t want my vitriol to be mistaken as nothing more than “sour grapes” over the BasketVols loss to the Louisville Cardinals.
Trust me, this has nothing to do with Tennessee, Louisville, or any other specific team…

I somehow managed to miss these yesterday in the run-up to the game against Louisville, but the boys over at Awful Announcing have discovered a site with pictures of Bruce Pearl from his high school yearbook, with a Superfly afro.
