The Myth Of Harry Bailey

Pottersville ROCKS!

George's confusion, even dismay, is understandable -- it's always a shock when the laws of space and time cease to apply. But if he'd hung out for a while, had a few drinks in the Indian Club, dropped a couple dimes in the dance hall, maybe checked out the action at the burlesque, he would have gotten a whole new take on the situation. Pottersville has its problems -- its bartenders can be undeniably ill-humored, for example -- but compared to the snooze-inducing Bedford Falls, it jumps.

...

And, of course, there are the town's many fine taverns. Alas, we will never know what delights are hidden behind the door of the Indian Club or the Bamboo Room, the Midnight Club or the Blue Moon. But we do have firsthand knowledge of one hostelry -- Nick's, formerly Martini's, the first place into which George and Clarence stumble and from which they are rapidly ejected. And if Nick's is any indication, a night out in Pottersville is not one to forget.

The first thing we see in Nick's is a black piano player, stomping out some righteous honky tonk. A Lauren Bacall-type babe at a crowded table catches the eye. Tough-looking men in fedoras and worldly-wise broads in low-cut dresses are bellied up to the bar. In a word, it's a happening place -- until George and the egregious Clarence come in.

Jacob Copeland (WR Florida, transfer to Maryland)

Login to view embedded media
Ex-Florida wide receiver Jacob Copeland is transferring to Maryland. The redshirt-junior wideout announced his commitment to the Terrapins Friday afternoon on social media. The news comes just over two weeks after Copeland entered the NCAA transfer portal. Despite his decision to transfer, he elected to play in Florida’s bowl game Thursday night, making two catches for 35 yards in the Gators’ 29-17 loss to UCF in the Gasparilla Bowl.

Copeland finished the season as the Gators’ leading receiver with 41 catches for 642 yards and four touchdowns while appearing in all 13 games and making 12 starts.

"After much thought, prayer and discussion with my friends and family, I have made the decision to enter the Transfer Portal," Copeland wrote in a farewell note on Dec. 9. "This has not been an easy decision or one that I have taken lightly; however, I want to do what is best for my development by pursuing my goals and furthering my career.”

CHRISTMAS CONFESSIONS...

Before the clock strikes midnight, I have to confess this...

I actually enjoy visiting Indianapolis for vacation.

Granted, I've only been there during large events (NCAA Men's Bball Final Four and the Indy 500), but I've always enjoyed my trips there. I also like the monument row and that building that Kurt Vonnegut's grandfather designed. Speaking of Kurt, the Vonnegut museum is also a nice spot to check out.)

2020 Fiesta Bowl - Ohio State vs Clemson

I take the long view, enjoy and relish every single win, and don't focus on the disappointments. Disappointment is the ONLY guarantee in football.
Buckeyes give us a whole lot more great wins every year , and only one bad Saturday or 2, like what happened that day with Clemson, and this year's TTUN. 99.9% of schools fans don't get seasons like we have, dont have something as great as the last 20 years. Look at all the USC, Nebraska, Texas, fan misery. They don't even get to be RELEVANT this past decade. They have REASONS for sadness. TTUN has the most misery this decade probably, (and its mostly cause of us!) Their fans are so demented by suffering, and traumatized by Urban Meyer era, they desperately troll 2021 Jaguars Highlight (Lowlight) reels.
So we don't win it all every year, and TTUN finally got one. You're torrenters hopefully collecting archives; Cherish and re-watch all that glory. Lots are up on Youtube, somebody recently put up the 2012 undefeated season, download them and make rewatching that an offseason project.
