With no sports going on right now, I find myself generally doing one of two things when I sit down to write. Either prognosticating what may happen should things get back into gear, to reaching back into my memories to talk about the “good ol’ days”.
Of course, when you’ve lived in Athens, Georgia and been a part of an institution like the University of Georgia, once you begin tapping into some of those memories it doesn’t take long for the floodgates to open.
Anytime I start thinking about my years in Athens — and for those of you who live there now, we’re talking over 30 years ago — there are, of course, a lot of memories that make me glad smartphones and social media weren’t around.
