As the great sage Kenneth Rogers once wrote: Twenty years of crawlin was bottled up inside him. He wasn't holdin nothin back; he let 'em have it all. When Tommy left the barroom not a Gatlin boy was standin. He said, this ones for Becky, as he watched the last one fall. And I heard him say, "I promised you, dad, not to do the things you've done. I'll walk away from trouble when I can. Now please dont think I'm weak, I didn't turn the other cheek, papa, I sure hope you understand: Sometimes you gotta fight when youre a man." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
