About Trey »

Hello everybody, I'm Trey Jones - a balding, 40-ish, sports fan who can die happy now that the Gators have a a few national championships to brag about.

Yep, I'm a Gator fan (have been for decades) but didn't attend UF because my Father insisted that I go to school out of state... SOOOO... instead of me going to Gatorland for next to nothing he paid big bucks for me to go to SMU in the early 80's... Yes, I actually saw DickerJames in action! However, rumors of "other" issues leading to the NCAA instigating the Death Penalty soured me on my alma mater... Sad story.

Oh, most every male in my family (except me) went to UF... the women in my family attended.... FSU... one was even a cheerleader. Thanksgiving is a mess at our house... One thing we have in common - Miami is never a topic for positive discussion!

Back to the bio... I love sports, played a bunch and coached a bunch but now that the knees are failing and I don't play golf I decided to search for a way to expand my interest in these important things beyond simply being a fan...

And I discovered this site.

The BR is a great place and already I have met some outstanding fans, supporters, writers, contributors, and fellow bumalongs. BT, Lisa, GG, Larry, Issac, Dawg, and too many others to name have all been generous and kind with their support of a rookie like me - and others. I hope to be able to contribute more, as they all have, to this great site.

looks like we both escaped with an ugly but huge win nonetheless. Florida and Texas seem to be a mirror image of each other right now. Solid D with an offense thats struggling. The positive thing is there is still room for improvement which is exciting because the teams that are playing the best at the end of the year usually are the teams to end up going far.

While I usually don't promote articles, I saw fit to promote this one. I feel people are not paying attention to what this article is about. They probably should. No matter if you are a fan of Florida or LSU, this is something you need to remember going into tomorrow night.
