[gatortalk] Fwd: [gatornews] [SUN]: The Back Nine: UF’s Run of Ineptitude is over

What a day Saturday! I was watching Peggy Porter too! And, as much baseball, softball, and football as I could stand right on into the evening. 
11. We often take for granted how well the University Athletic Association runs things even though we only hear from people who didn't like where they had to park or how hot it was. But to pull off what the UAA did Saturday was the mark of a stellar organization, something they have done before. You had women's tennis playing for the SEC title and that place was packed (I went for a bit), you had doubleheaders caused by Sunday's weather in both baseball and softball, you had lacrosse playing at home at the same time as softball ACROSS THE STREET and you had more than 50,000 people at the spring game. So if you didn't have anything to do Saturday, why are you reading a column about sports? Everything I saw went off without a major problem and I wouldn't be surprised to see that North Lawn experience grow (with the beer garden included) next season and continue to expand until it pretty much becomes a version of the Grove in Oxford. Just don't tell Scott Stricklin I made that comparison. He still has some Mississippi State blood in him. Stricklin was all over the place Saturday and the fans seemed to appreciate his presence.
