IMAGES FROM SOUTH CAROLINA’S EPIC EGG-LAYING IN GAINESVILLE
The University of South Carolina football team gave away its shot at a dream season this weekend in the “Swamp.” Literally.
Three first-half fumbles led to three Florida touchdowns and a 21-6 halftime lead – and the seventh-ranked Gamecocks folded like a cheap suit in the second half against the No. 2 team in the nation.
Florida’s 44-11 victory puts the Gators one win away from their first SEC East championship in three years – while the Gamecocks must win out if they hope to match their school-record 11 wins from a year ago.

If you lay an egg just make sure its golden. This team went from peacock to feather duster in 4 quarters.
I once had a fighting Bantam rooster who only had one leg. I called him Peg-leg Morgan after the infamous pirate. After several more fights he lost an eye and I fashioned a small patch for him to wear. He never lost his spirit and he even went on to win a few more matches.
Many haters tormented him and called him, “Lame Cock.” Of course, it didn’t bother him ’cause he was who he was no matter what. More than several people told me to give up on my rooster and that it would take forever to bring him back to his full potential.
And I replied, “What is time to a chicken?” My old rooster eventually went on to that blissful coop in the sky when he was cornered by an old cur yard dog. No matter how tough you are or what your record was there will always be someone capable of making chicken soup out of you. That is just the way it is my friends.
So you’re one of those redneck cock fighters? Have you moved onto pitbulls?
Don’t fight dogs. George Washington and even Andrew Jackson had noble fighting cocks. I learned all my stuff in Vietnam. Every village had a master ganoi. YouTube Ganoi.
My chickens probably sell for more than your wife’s car. Philippines is my biggest market. Many buyers even pay for my ticket and lodging just for me to deliver my prize winning fowl.
Thanks for inquiring.
MajorC – That’s quite the life accomplishment, watching chickens fuck and selling them. Do they make you ride back in the rear of the plane with the goats and chickens? Is a chicken really worth more than a $60K SUV? I hope you remember to report your chicken income to the IRS.
MajorC – I did some looking around, are you associated with Oakridge Game Farm? They have sort of an E-Bay site for chickens… quite the lucrative business, the highest priced chicken I saw was bid up to $200, most sell for $50-$75. So excuse me if I call your little story bullshit. It makes for a good story to tell the other drunks at the bar on a Wednesday afternoon.
Where the fuck is Ron Morris when you need him? You suck Steve.
Gators just scored AGAIN !
ALL IS NOT LOST, ALL IS NOT lost, ALL IS not lost, ALL is not lost, all is not lost, all is not, all is, all,……..
