I started posting with this icon (graciously enhanced by DBamaC) as a tribute to my friend...our friend...HoustonReb! during the week prior to the Ole Miss/LSU game. As I posted then and many of y'all know, the LSU game was a favorite of Jeff's and I knew how excited he would have been to see the SEC W come down to that game.
After that loss, y'know what? It was still pretty damned great to be an Ole Miss Rebel. I decided then to keep the HR! icon until the 2003-04 Ole Miss football season came to an end.
As Ole Miss's season progressed up to that point and beyond, I couldn't help thinking how much Jeff would have loved it. Not just the wins, but the whole experience. For those of us who grew up during the Steve Sloan years, suffered through Billy Brewer's probation, experience the humiliation of Tuberville's defection, and watched our Rebel's always seem to come up short on the big play, this has been a storybook season. I know HR! would have been in Oxford for the LSU game. I don't see how he could have missed it. I'm sure he would have been cheering for a Thanksgiving Day shut-out against State just like us. And it seems somehow fitting that this incredible year ended with a Cotton Bowl victory in his home state.
Y'all can poke fun at us all you want for being so excited with our 10 win season. It's been a long time come and we want to enjoy it...too long for some of us it turned out.
Yes, I wish that HoustonReb! could have experienced this Ole Miss football season. I wish even more that he could have lived to be an old man and seen his kids grow up. Most of us would have traded any or all of those W's for that.
Hotty Toddy, Gosh A-Mighty!
Who the Hell are we?
Flim Flam, Bim Bam,
Ole Miss
BY DAMN!
Hotty Toddy, HoustonReb!
Hotty Toddy, Jeff
That's All.
