    Jeff,

    What a genius idea to have a player on the team start a blog! Do you plan on updating the site throughout the season? I know your time during the season will be at a premium, but it would be really refreshing to get away from reading all of the newspaper columnists in the fall and getting some REAL perspective and insight from someone on the frontline (no pun intended). Hate that you got hurt 9 plays into the 2008 season, but I can't wait to watch you and Geno clog up the middle in '09! Good luck to you sir!

    These profiles of your teammates are well done and a great idea. It really helps people understand that the players are real people with lives working hard to make us fans proud on game day.

    I know getting injured was awful but you're doing great things with your extra time here in Athens.

    Keep it up!

    Ridge
