Laughing to Keep From Crying

You may have noticed the dearth of University of Tennessee related posts on this blog this fall. It’s not that I’ve become a fair weather fan; far from it. It’s that I’ve had virtually nothing positive to write about. We’re 1-3 at the bottom of the conference and with Georgia, Bama, and an upstart Vandy still looming on the schedule, I have a feeling it’s going to get worse before it gets better.

Naturally, I’ve been inundated with plenty of email forwards bemoaning the pitiful state of my beloved Vols. Here are two of the best:

Apparently, Congress was so impressed with how quickly Fulmer evacuated over 109,000 fans from Neyland Stadium on Saturday, they’re expected to rubber stamp his approval by the end of the week.

Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying, you know?
