Whatever he said to Joe this past week must have worked.
Damn Good Dawg. We'll miss you, "Loran's Best".

As a Gator fan I hate the Bulldogs with a passion. But I met UGA VII at a game once and fell in love with that damn dog. He will be missed.

=(

Well, damn...I'm sick of watching the games this year too, UGA. But I don't know if I'd pull a heart attack from having to watch anymore.

After review, the SEC officials have declared him alive and in perfect health.

It would be nice. BTW, how do you mourn the loss of a single bug?

here's a great shot of him in action -

We'll be sure to give the new one a nice warm welcome in Atlanta next week.

/11-1

/11-1

No, silly, we're only 7-1 against Tech this decade!

Hope your enjoying the golden fire hydrants in the sky and all the legs you can hump.

According to various speculation by media, Georgia had tried to keep Uga as close to the family tree as possibly, resulting in an inbred lineage of dog. Don't know if that is true or not, but given that this guy suddenly died it seems relevant.

Damn good dog. RIP

RIP you son of sons......you scotch of earl............you lord of............

Remember when one of the UGAs tried to bite the Auburn WR (Baker?) in the leg? Ahh, good times. Good night funny dog.

Robert Baker, the coke-deal maker?

Inbreeding is also bad for dogs, Georgia.

Are you accusing Georgians of inbreeding, or are you speaking from personal experience as a West Virginia resident?

He was doing too good an imitation of Georgia's secondary.

/RIP, Uga VII.

I'm not a GA fan, but I like the Uga dogs. RIP puppy!

How will the university remain accredited without the dog's test scores?

The hedges in the stadium are still taking tests for the players.

Get PETA on the phone, this smells like animal abuse and a puppy mill.

Uga VII was the only Uga to never beat Georgia Tech or Florida.

Grim Reaper has failed
Uga taken too early
Why not Smokey, why?

Touché, sir.

Hokie fan, dog owner, vick (marcus and mike) hater extending condolences to UGA and the fans.

Even though we lost I had a lot of fun down there. I also loved all the bulldogs all over the place (I own one myself). My bulldog is 5, so this news is really disconcerting.

I lol'd, would lol again.

This has been a bad month for mascots.

Well, UGA VI also died of heart failure so that may have something to do with it as well.

elvisaintdead: here's a great shot of him in action -

excellent shot.

Further proof that Georgia sucks. Their season is so bad it killed their mascot mid-season!

//RIP UGA VII

Mentat: This has been a bad month for mascots.

I don't think this constitutes as choking.


But I think the definition of choking is giving up 27 4th quarter points to Nebraska and losing 12-27. Although I think the alternate definition would be giving up an uncontested full-court layup in 4.8-seconds to UCLA and losing 74-75... (new window just because)

Meh

16-7 is not a good record for a school football team such as Georgia

8-3, 8-4 on average. Not awful, but they should have higher expectations

Damn Good Dawg.

Goodnight UGA. You done your part.

generaltimmy: 16-7 is not a good record for a school football team such as Georgia

Are you insinuating that UGA isn't a good academic institution? If so, be prepared to lose an argument.

You can do it now, Earl, I don't think he'll bite you.

Sending his best regards on November 28th.

As comforting as that may be for you, you know what will happen in 8 days. 11-1! (oh, and 2-7 this decade!)

/THWG
/Sorry about UGA VII, shocking and sad for us all

Romulox: As comforting as that may be for you, you know what will happen in 8 days. 11-1! (oh, and 2-7 this decade!)

Yeah, UGA is 2-7 against UF this decade but you wont see us bragging about sucking for a decade against their biggest game of the year.

GT fans are mind numbingly stupid, win one and they suddenly act like anyone gives a damn they are winning but even with being in the top 10 UGA still leads the local sports. Get over it GT you will always be second best in the state and you will still get up in time to get stomped in your bowl game, again.

/rip UGA
//couldnt stand this season either

/Goodnight, funnydawg

This gets greenlit and the Stephanie Spielman story doesn't?

Ponzholio: I don't think this constitutes as choking.

I mock Kansas football and you immediately start talking about basketball.

Yep, things are finally back to normal in Lawrence.

one of the best mascots in all of sports.

Surely his brother/son is ready to take over. Same way they replace the season ticket holders when they pass, isn't it?

Say hi to Lewis Grizzard for us, he'll be the first one to pet you up there.

"Uga VII was not as active or mischievous as his father but more distinguished. He realized his role when he put his shirt on. He was well-behaved and always appreciated the significance of his role."


which translates into

UGA VII was a dog. We put a shirt on him and he could care less as long as he could lick his own balls.
