Red-Headed Tickler

I don't have much as far as tickling content is concerned. I will tell you what the Tickler has been up to so far this week. REST. I mean to tell you, weddings wear me out. Especially with this ole rickety back, the Tickler doesn't spring back as quick as he once did. That being said, I have been raving about the idea of Rhinestone Cowboy themed rehearsal dinner. Man that was fun. Dressing up is fun. I think that has a lot to do with wearing a mustache. Whether those lifers, you know the ones like your dad who has had a mustache for 40 years, care to admit it, a mustache is a disguise. It is a totally different persona than the naked lipped cousin that hides underneath. So, when you find yourself dressing up, or grooming your tickler, you find yourself stroking a different persona which always promises to be a good time. Still nekid lipped here at TTHQ but feeling good about it. Glad to hear that Rod Battle and Trinton went through successful surgery. Here's hoping to a speedy and healthy return.

I know there are questions out there about what type of team we have on the field. Where's the fire, where's the commitment, where's the discipline? Well as fans, you have to ask yourself the same question, where's your loyalty, where's your love, where's your G? You see, I find myself looking at it time and time again out there in the message board pedestal or the comments on some poor basterd's blog and that is the cannibalistic talk in the Dawgnation!!! I heard that some yocal decided to berate Coach Bobo post game last week after the ASU game. Bobo is a Dawg, bottom line! He is doing his best day in and day out to give us the best offensive product he can. Yes there are questions of whether we have the best personnel out on the field, but here is my question? Don't you root for your team and your coach when they stand behind the red-headed stepchild. The red head has been tormented for generations and here when they have been given the perfect opportunity to get out there and wail on ole Joe C, they stand behind him. You know why, because Joe C. has been doing what he was asked to do for the last 4 years. Work hard, go to class, and pay attention. Now his chance has come and he is being rewarded for his commitment to the program.

So I ask all you non Tickler toting venters hiding behind your costume handles like dawgfood6969 and dawg4life to step out from behind your disguise and show support for your team. Show support for those kids who risk everything to win the game, show support for those coaches who give more time to their school than they do to their own family, show support for the nation, the Dawgnation that is, led by a red-headed step child!!!!

GO DAWGS!!!!

BedazzleTickler!

Here I am finding myself in none other than the Music City celebrating the nuptials of a good friend and Bulldog aficionado Clay Ezell. Being the brilliant man that he is and a testament to type of lady that he is marrying, those amazing Americans had a Rhinestone Cowboy themed rehearsal dinner at the Ryman Auditorium. That's right, the same Ryman that Elvis made a livin shaking his pecker at all those adoring fans. Well if you know anything about the Tickler by now, he loves him some attention. The best way to pull off some good attention is bedazzling oneself. Bedazzle he did.

Hopefully these pictures don't overwhelm, however I feel that it is fitting to give the loyal fans a show. How can you still call yourself the Tickler without the fuzzy sensation that we all love, because the fuzzy love is just the public Tickler. The true Tickler resides deep within and will never be misplaced and yes, I had bedazzled representation.



The idea was long ago but it came into real life bedazzlement this Wednesday night with the love and support of the Bedazzlelette. After starting, I realized there was no stopping short of perfection. Two night later and glue gun burns all over these tickling typers, perfection was achieved. There was input from all over including the finishing touches of the Bedazzleslippers by the artistic genius known as BedazzleWonnie.



Az State comes in between the bush, here's to hoping the Dogs deliver. To all you defensive haters out there, shut your naked mouths. I'm looking for turnovers for that Junkyard D and points from the Ginger Express. Go Dawgs!!!

Tickling with the Tailgunner....

Tailgunner's, aka Gillis Carter, wedding brings me deep into Dawgnation in Macon, Ga. Macon has some good things to offer, one being Jim Shaw's. If you haven't had the chance to do so, go get a fried seafood platter at Jim Shaw's. Tickler, what the F, inland seafood. I know, I know but it's as fresh as you can get anywhere. Not to mention for blackout seafood, it is all you could ask for. TT loves him a good hush puppie and these were amazing.

As for last week, I was happy with the win. The Dawgs definitely made us earn it but hell, I shaved the Stache. Of course they would make me earn it and earn it I did. I was happy to expose my girlfriend and her sister to their first Dawgs game. I also let them in on a little culinary carrot known as Clocked. If you like tots and a belly bustin burger, hit it up. They also have hand dipped milkshakes; vanilla, chocolate, or coffee. Go check em out on the end of Washingston Street right next to the 40 Watt across the street from the ole Frat Castle. Another friend got to experience first gameday in Athens. He was featured on here last week and has been before. His name is Gordon Sutton and has started a business College Weekends and in Athens it just fits. As we all know, sometimes friends have weddings during weekends that we would expect to be in Athens cheering on the Dogs. Post your house on College Weekends and make a buck. Hey, just cause you can't be in Athens doesn't mean that someone else shouldn't be allowed to enjoy the Classic City.

TTHQ was once again crushed to think of Rod Battle miss out on the rest of the season with a torn ACL. Get better Rod, we at TTHQ are rooting for you!!!!

Now it wouldn't be the TT blog without a little mustache love. This guy is known at RRM, Radical Randy Means. He loves the Dogs and loves a sick Stache. His line to the ladies last night was that he is now doing impressionist dancing. You up the ante with this pencil then Tickle Strip. Go Dawgs!!!!

Tickler no more.....

Yes it is true my loyal furry followers. This past Tuesday I got aggressive with the clippers and shaved that sucker right off.

NO, i did not give up on the season but as a testament to Trinton Sturdivant and the frustration he has endured over the past year and will continue to endure for the next year, I cut it off. I have never felt a sickness for a kid like I did for him this past week. It ruined my Saturday long before the game was ever over. So here's to you Trinton, naked lipped til you get better!!!!!!

I have not been thoroughly impressed with the Dawgnation this past week. GET FARGIN REAL!!! Quit hating the players, the coach, and the team. Yes, we would have preferred to win, but it didn't happen. There were some bright spots and some spots to work on but we lost nothing other than the game. SEC is still there and for the taking and it starts tomorrow.

Speaking of tomorrow, I will be supporting my good friend Gordon Sutton at his tailgate. He too is suffering from MWS(Mustache Withdrawal Syndrome.) Quit F-ing laughing, it's a serious disease! He also is the one I told you about with the business www.collegeweekends.com. He is going to be tailgating right below Tate where Reggie Buzzell has had a few beverages to share with his closest 1500 friends. It will also be right next to the Dawg Walk so come show some love.

Be positive tomorrow and be prepared to watch the Dawgs do the same thing we at TTHQ are planning to do this season, win em one at a time for Trinton!!!! Get better big fella!!!

Just a taste

I can't believe it is finally upon us. The glorious days we know as fall when the nights get cool and the nipples a little harder. It's a great time. I know my nipples are definitely getting harder just thinking about it. The anticipation has been killing me and now it is finally upon us. Thanks to the nibble that was fistfighting and defensive showcase(sarcasm) last night, reality is beginning to set in. The boys are boarding a plane this afternoon and venturing out today to start their quest. There will be bumps and there will be bruises. There won't be teary eyed promise speeches written by Kirky Herbbbbstreet and delivered to Carolina Red aka Joe Cox to read. Sidenote, I fargin hate ESPN's bias even more after I saw that Tebow remix of "The Speach" on the pregame last night. GAH!!!!!! Also, you would think that after all these years of getting paid the big bucks by ESPN that Lou Holtz would get some dentures that fit so he could get rid of that slurping sound. SHEESH!!!

Enough with the rants. Rumor on the street that the "Ginger Ninga" aka "Carolina Slaw" has the Flu. Hope that's not the case. I just received word from the ole Biscuiteer that TitleTickler has it's first promotional video, that excites TTHQ.

This weekend is going to be great and lazy due to back ailments. TT isn't quite back to fighting shape. That being said, let's remember that it's just a game and that it's most important to those boys playing it and those men coaching it. Let's stay positive and believe that there is no reason this can't be our finest year.

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You look like S**T Tickler!!!

Yes, yes I know, the posts have been scarce around TTHQ. The format will resemble last years where I or some other worthy Tickler gives a weekend recap of a day in the life of a Tickler, that brings me to this post.

You see, I was well aware that on Monday this said blog needed a little tickling however the Tickler took a tumble on the bike this weekend. Fortunately I was able to walk away from the crash, unfortunately that walk was to the the stretcher and then to the ambulance and then to the ER. TT had to get a CT scan where I learned that I fractured the wing of my L2 and L3 vertebrae. I will be not bedridden but close to it for the next 6 weeks. I know you are all thinking, yes, more time for you to share the inner secrets of the TitleTickling Doctrine. This might happen but for the most part, I will be focusing on taking care of work while getting myself better. What happened was I was practicing for a downhill race at Beech Mountain and didn't quite clear a jump that I had in prior attempts. Catching my front wheel on lip of the lander I was catapulted in a somersalt motion and landed directly on my back. According to the Doctor, if it hadn't been for the TitleTickler being a physical specimen and also wearing a spine protector made by SixSixOne, I would have been in much worse shape. He informed me that I was very lucky to be in the good shape that I was and I assured him that I knew how lucky I am. So that's the story, don't ask for more details. The only thing the Tickler has to say is when you do crazy things, protect yourself with good gear. I have attached a picture of my back showing where the rivets in the back protector bruised me. I can only imagine what my back would look like if I hadn't been wearing that protector.




The good news is that I will be out only six weeks and won't be out many more games than old Justin Houston. I am hoping to be at the USC-UGA game on September 12th.

The Dawgs are looking great and I am very pleased with what I am hearing out on the practice field. Keep up the good work boys. I feel that last year I had good health and the Dawgs did not so this year I am flipping it around. Bad health for the Tickler and Good Health for the Dawgs!!!!!!!!

Most ferocious Dawg is an UnderDawg!!!!!!!

Thanks for the well wishes.

TT

TitleTickler 2.0

Oh yes my doubting brethren, it's back and bigger than ever. Stay tuned throughout the season for weekly updates of the journey that is known to many as the TitleTickler Express. There will be guest appearances by Ticklers aplenty and a many.

Did you really think that I wouldn't be part of documenting a good ole ginger from North Carolina bringing the Bulldogs back to there rightful spot at the Top.

01.07.10 I'll be there furry, will you?

hello, hello, is there anybody out there????

Coming at you live from MTTHQ(Mobile TTHQ) wanted to share a couple of things that are relevant to the love of the BULLDOGS and also Ticklers!!!

You see, our boy, Knowshon Moreno was selected by the Denver Broncos and TT's furry lipped brother over at http://stachesblog.blogspot.com now reside in the same state. My friend Gordon Sutton has been working on for the past few years a company calledwww.collegeweekends.com which allows us college has beens the opportunity to go back and relive the glory days in someone's home in Athens. That's right, he just launched the Athens version after many successful years of running the same operation out of Charlottesville. Go to his website and check it out, rent a house or rent your house!

But TT, you are rambling again! No shit, that's what I do! Well how does Gordo and Knowshon have anything in common. Besides the fact that they are both residents of Colorado, they both have sick endzone dances. Knowshon shows his here Gordo is still getting me his dance but if memory serves correct, his moves challenge Knowshon's.

Every hairy day gets me closer to the football season and ever more excited. By the way, some mustache humor occurred during a wedding between great friends last week in Balto area. You see this "lady," a complete stranger, slightly older than the Tickler referred to the Tickler as a "Dick Duster." The tickler being ever sharp with the tongue said to the "lady," "o contraire, this duster dusts no Dicks, this my friend is a "whoom broom." Tickler that's not how you spell it. It's "womb broom." Well I thought it was "whoom broom" until this "lady" who had just referred to the Tickler as a "dick duster" threatened to kick me in the groin. Well you can spell it however you like. It is a great broom for the womb but we at TTHQ refer to the whoom as you know, the whoom.

BROOMING WHOOM!

Rumblings....

are that the Tickler has returned...Stay tuned. My good friend Biscuit at the www.thebiscuitblog.com reminded me of former ticklings.



See you soon!

Dear TTN,

Death.....to the South Beach dream. It saddens me that this day has come. This day came at the hands of the nemesis of the Dawgnation. This last week has been an exact replica of our season, started out with a lot of potential to be great and continually was pummeled as the week went on. Started with wonderous recruits committing and then the news of Stafford and Moreno and closing with having to watch Fox and the rest of the world chug Tebow's urban meyer weiner for four and half hours. He must be exhausted. I know I am. This season was great. It took me to new venues that I have never seen. It took me to old ones that I dearly love. There was great excitement and optimism during numerous occasions. My elder brother got to experience his first Georgia game, and my younger co-captained the TitleTickler express long past what was asked of him. There were random mustache strokings that I would never have expected. There were numerous females that let it be known that they love mustaches "cause their daddy had one when they were two." There were numerous males who also let it be known that they loved mustaches because they personally couldn't grow one. And of course there were the jean short wearing razor toting variation who did not like the mustache at all. All in all it was a wonderful experience that made me a flagrant target when I subjected myself to the folds of SEC football. It excites me to know that I will get to do the same thing again next fall and year in and year out until we do bring the National Title back to where it belongs. It excites me that we might have to do so by playing a playoff and ridding all of the excuses that the Utes, the Lhorns, the Trojans have made for why their teams deserve the title more than the others. I appreciate the reading of these coffee induced tyrades and the support that many showed by joining me in the quest to will a national title home to Athems via a mustache ride on the TitleTickler Express. Stay tuned, stay positive, and look forward to the best year ever for Georgia Bulldog Football in 2009. Thanks for the memories and the mustard in the mustache. See you all in Pasadena Jan 7. 2010!!!!

Yours Truly,

TT

Week 21...22....

Well I know, some of you out there probably see me as a slacker. The truth is, I was duck hunting in Arkansas last week and did not have access to the TTHQ database. It is a heavily encrypted system and the technical support was not able to grant me access from my location. Don't fret, I have some week 21 documentation. Please watch the video in all its furry glory.

Well after that documentation and a journey to Arkansas and back, El TitleTicklero was able to catch some good football during the last week. Most importantly, those Hairy Dawgs traveled down to Florida and were able to take care of business against the formidable Big Ten opponent. I hope that our defense hasn't been that good all season because that would be a letdown. Big Ten speed, wowva. Overall I am very proud of the boys for getting to that 10 win level once again. It would have been very easy to give up but we did a great job that second half and played a great game. If that was Stafford's and Knowshon's last game, then what a game. Stafford showed in that second half why he has so much upside. Knowshon once again never quit and then caught that ball out of the backfield to give us once more clip of some Knacrobatics. In fact, before any of you start thinking "Knacrobatics, what a great word" TTHQ is in exclusive talks and has already filed patents to get a certain someone provided he goes pro to teach and even guest appear in some training videos on how to properly fly. Please stay tuned to TTHQ.

Back to the growth. As my loyal readers out there know, this would be the week of anticipation and excitement had all things gone as planned. Should be a good game, I would have just preferred to have seen what the Bulldogs could have done provided we didn't have 19 season ending injuries. Not going to lament on the fact that we had some bad breaks, the good news is that 2009 is looking better and better. We at TTHQ have a good source that believes there might be a slight possibility to see #7 and #24 in a uniform next year. Now whether or not the names read Stafford and Moreno will only tell. However, we have picked up two big time recruits in the last three days for the 2009 season and Coach Richt continues to keep the program stable by retaining all of our very desirable assistant coaches. So before all you razor toters out there say, "thanks TT for jinxing the season!" knowshon this, the upper lip on this man's face will be warm next season too.
The posts aren't done though sports fans. TTHQ will be continually providing material throughout the offseason however it will not be weekly. That being said, be on the lookout soon for some of the pics that have graced the halls of TTHQ this past season. Oh, and kids, don't go play anywhere on ole raintree lane, rumor is there's bigots that live in them parts. GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!!
