And the band played on

Today is the first day of the Tennessee football season. Scott got ready this morning by wearing an obnoxiously bright orange shirt and dressing Owen to match. Then they downloaded "Rocky Top" from Limewire. It is actually the best version I have ever heard, and boy have I heard a lot of versions. If you have never listened to it you are truly depriving yourself and you should click here immediately.

Scott sat in front of the television rather impatiently waiting for 7 to roll around and finally, finally, it was here. The moment. That we wait for.

"Owen! Owen, come on! It's time! The game is coming on!"

"Oh, oh, football! Yeah! Oh, Go Dawgs! GO DAWGS!"

And right then and there I think Scott may have died just a little bit.
