Good question. I think of "status symbols" having more to do with financial worth, rather than image of coolness, but I can see how one could say that status symbol relates to the coolness factor on a social level. Still, I don't like the way you tend to use the "hip-hop" culture to define black people in urban settings. That is about as huge a generalization as saying all white people from northern Georgia are a bunch of hicks and drink moonshine.
Dammit, SJ, I resemble that remark.

Thank Gawd you didn't say that we're all UGA fans...

Did not hurt my feelings, I am a Vol, Rebel, Peyton and Eli fan. Seaside2 is the Tiger High fan. ;-)

I do watch Memphis basketball and will root for them unless they are playing UT or Ole Miss.

But yep, they stank big time in the bowl game.

Yeah, Tommy is my neighbor. gotta watch out for the folks in the hood, I guess. They did stink, but I'll bet that the news will come out that he gets a raise and an extension. TH is a basketball school and I think that what they got is about the best they can do, with a few D'Angelo Williams exceptions. Told Tommy the other day that he needs a GOOD defensive coordinator BAD!!! He knew that.:cool:

While not a Vols fan, I think they did good in the W game. Proud for them and Lady D, the birthday girl!:clap:

Thanks seaside2, I am proud they held on and won and went out this season with a win instead of a loss. Ainge made good on his word that he was going to make amends for the SEC championship loss. Thanks for the birthday wish also. :D

So UGA kicked Hawaii's butt, eh? Wish we could have had some competition.

It was a bloodbath. Georgia very nearly scored again in the end. Lost the ball on a 4th and goal.

The commentators were fascinating in the end. There was very little ballgame to discuss, so they kept talking about the coaches and teams' character and spirituality. Very touchy-feely...I wondered if Oprah was in there somewhere.

I said that the hip-hop crowd likes Courvoisier, not urban blacks in general. You can't believe how often it's mentioned in hip-hop music.

Heck, I know more about hip-hop than many urban blacks I know.

Anyhow, this is the wrong thread for the above conversation. Still can't believe Kitty and Skunky beat the bookies' odds by so much!

AU beat "Clempson." :bang: My godchildren, as Clemson grads, are flipping out. Me, too.

Skunky and Kitty -- how do you do it?

:wave: Everyone knows to always pick Auburn to win.

The SEC is going to be a scary place next year...
