Open Letter To Mark Richt

Thanks for the Memories Mark.Wow. It’s been one heck of a week, hasn’t it? In just one week you’ve somehow managed to defeat one of your rivals (Georgia Tech), get fired from one job, and then accept another one. That’s quite the feat; I’m not sure how many people can say they’ve done that. I’ll go ahead and own up to it. Yes, I called for your job after the Alabama game. And Yes, I was hoping this would be your last season at Georgia (as head coach) all along. Then it happened. Sunday morning I woke up to the news that they actually fired you (Something I had begun to think was impossible). I (along with thousands of other UGA fans) finally got what (I thought) I wanted. I should’ve been happy, ecstatic, and optimistic about our football program’s future. But, I wasn’t. Instead, I was surprisingly scared and depressed. Old people always use that saying, “Be careful what you wish for, because it might actually come true.” Well Mark, that phrase took on a whole new meaning for me on Sunday. Often times in relationships, one person can be taken for granted, mistreated, and sometimes even dumped by their spouse. And more often than not, once it actually happens, the guy/girl who dumped the other realizes that it was a mistake. They wish that they could take them back, but often times it’s too late. Well Mark, you’re that girlfriend/boyfriend, and I never thought that I would say this, but I wish we (Georgia) could take you back. Unfortunately, both you and Georgia appear to have moved on though (Not gonna lie, that was pretty quick). So, if you don’t mind, I’d like to take a trip down memory lane, stir up some old recollections, and reminisce on the good times.
