Very interesting. Very interesting, indeed. I wrote this morning how stupid Georgia’s rules were, and hours later the SEC bends the knee to remove restrictions.
Did I single-handedly force the SEC to change their policies? We might never know, but the rules were repealed only hours after I said I wouldn’t attended a Georgia game until changes were made.
I’m not an expert, but there’s clearly something going on.
Georgia’s football team requires a $25,000 donation before you can buy beer.
As a blue-collar man who had to fight and claw for everything in my life, I won’t be attending Georgia games until this rule is gone. I stand in solidarity with the common man. https://t.co/D0oxRHlMZc

Do I expect a hero’s welcome or a parade throughout the streets of SEC campuses? A true hero never asks to be honored or praised. (RELATED: Georgia Will Sell Beer At Football Games For Those Who Donate $25,000)
We don’t do what we do because we want people to clap for us. We do what we do because nobody will look out for the common man if we don’t.
I don’t do what I do for me. I do it for all the guys out there who never had a chance. I’m not boycotting Georgia football games for myself. I’m doing it for the guy who works a 60-hour week to feed his family and then wants to drink a beer while watching the Bulldogs.
For as much as I hate the SEC, there’s no question the conference repealing the rules was a smart play. There’s also only one way to celebrate.
Grab a cold one right now, crack it open and take a long drink to celebrate the conference finally doing something smart.
Now, once they find somebody to compete with Nick Saban, then they’ll really be rolling.
