After a morning flight from Omaha and a night on the town in Athens with several Georgia baseballers, it's time for our season wrap-up.
To start, I'd like to send out a congratulations and thank you to the team and the Georgia baseball program for the amazing season they put together in 2008. Though second place hurts now more than last years season did, the memories we forged throughout the spring on Kudzu Hill will last a lifetime.
We will remember Gordo, Peisel and Matty O for all of their contributions over the years and are eternally grateful to the team for the way they embraced our antics in right field. Though the players and their families have thanked us numerous times, we cannot emphasize enough how much they did for us as Bulldog fans and eventually as friends.
Omaha did not pan out the way we had hoped but the Dawgs exceeded expectations and brought the Red and Black to the forefront of the national baseball scene. They are understandably upset about the loss Wednesday night to Fresno but being one win away from a national title is nothing to hang one's head over.
To avoid a rambling and drawn out post, I'll leave it at that. It was a great season and it was a lot of fun.
Here's to continued success at Foley Field and elsewhere on campus like we experienced in the "Year of the Bulldog" 2007-2008.
Go Dawgs!
