Anyhow...I can truly understand the non-UGA fans perceptions of Spikes...and maybe even of Urban's punishment...or lack thereof. It's embarrassing for the conference...it embarrassed me as a Gator. But any Gator will tell you...in spite of how Brandon "looks"...or what his brother has done, he is a good guy. He does tons of community work in Gainesville and often accompanies Tebow on his weekly treks to Shand's Children's Hosptial. He's a decent guy...he just let his emotions get the best of him on one play. I don't think any Gators on this board agree with what he did...but considering how much shiat he'd taken up to that point, I'm just amazed an all-out brawl didn't occur first. Brandon had a target on his back from the opening KO. He got his eyes raked...and unlike Ealey...his eye was minimally damaged...he actually had to go to the sideline, Ealey kept going. Brandon took several late hits to the back by OL...had his helmet ripped off twice...heck, he even had his hair pulled. Nobody gives a rat's ass about all that, though...
What I find monumentally hilarious is the fact that poodle fans are creating the biggest ruckus...knowing their entire team played as dirty as any team not in garnet and gold that I've watched in many years.
Forget the fact that one of UGA's starters was arrested last week...and started the stinkin' game!!! They're pissed that Spikes isn't being punished more severely...GMAFB!
Honestly...the pups got taken to the woodshed in J-ville...again...and this is the only subject they can post on without holding their heads in shame. I'm not bunching all you UGA fans together...some of you are sensible...but to the few that embarrass your fan base, think about what your coach and team done this past Saturday before throwing stones our way.
GO GATORS!!!

Honestly, I'm pretty much the only Dawg fan talking about it... and even I quit talking about the Spikes issue hours ago. It's actually mostly other fanbases vs. UF fans on the issue.

GH, he was arrested for driving without a license but with his old learners permit instead. A believable accident. You're reaching worse than FloridaGator.

An arrest is an arrest...I'll throw a little of your logic as far as analogies go...it's no different. Why don't you google hypocrisy.
Fact is...an UGA player was arrested last week...and wasn't punished. So...again, if you live in a glass house, you...well, you know the rest.
As far as another thread on the issue...this is not the SEC Talk board...nor is it the Trash Talk board...it's the FLORIDA BOARD. My post is for Florida Fans...the rest of you are free to leave. (this is our club house)...
I think it was Travian Robertson that had an eye injury against Tennessee? Was he gouged? Was it intentional? Who knows? That tape hasn't surfaced, but I know he came out and had is eye washed out on the sideline. It happens in every game. That doesn't make it right, but everyone needs to comply with a universal plan if we want it stopped. Self-policing isn't ever going to work.
If we're going to stop it, then let's stop everyone from getting away with it. The fact that this one was caught on tape makes it more disturbing, because you get to watch it over and over up close and personal.
There needs to be a PF flag anytime another player is caught with his fingers inside a helmet. A player that gets caught gouging an eye needs to be immediately ejected from the game. That would stop it. But if they aren't serious about it, then why should one team be the scapegoat while their competitors keep doing it?
The problem with gouging eyes is that sometimes your finger misses the eye and finds a row of teeth. Players have lost fingers in the past for attempting such crap. The helmet shield was invented for this very purpose.
