Male College Athlete of the Year

And the winner is...two years in a row...Tim Tebow was awarded the ESPY for the BEST MALE COLLEGE ATHLETE of the year.

“It truly is an honor to even be invited to an event like the ESPYs and be able to be in the same room with many athletes that I have the utmost respect for,” said Tebow. “And then to be named the Best Male College Athlete, which was decided by the fans makes this night even more memorable. I want to thank my teammates and coaches, but a special thank you goes out to the entire Gator Nation, the best fans in the country.”

Florida-Georgia week

The big game of the year is almost here. I think it is officially called the Georgia-Florida game this year. I know I will miss the atmosphere of the game in Jacksonville this year. Even though we only went to a couple of FL-GA games - and that was to work concessions and earn money for the school - I still miss the anticipation of the game. No one seems to talk about it up here in Georgia. Florida quarterback Tim Tebow is making the news this week, as he is now at the top of most everyone's list for the Heisman Trophy. After the Kentucky game was over, Tebow was left with a bruised right shoulder. Since he is a left-handed thrower, it should not be a problem this week. AJC.com has a nice webpage for the Georgia-Florida game. Also, you can read the preview of the game at CBS.com - the game will be televised on CBS this Saturday at 3:30 pm from Jacksonville, Florida.
