Memorial Day Quick Links

Happy Memorial Day to everyone. I hope you are all enjoying the extra day off, but don't forget to take some time to remember the meaning behind the holiday.

There's a lot on tap for us this week. I'll be stopping over to chat with the Diamond Dogs after regionals are announced at 12:30 on ESPN, then I'll be in the car en route to Destin for the SEC meetings this week.

There will be a bunch of updates coming from the meetings, plus a few other bits and pieces of news, but in the meantime, here are just a few links for the day.

-- ESPN profiled Mark Fox and the immense job in front of him as the head man at UGA.

-- Georgia is already on the minds of the Oklahoma State Cowboys, three months before they are set to face off in Stillwater.

-- In a shocking turn of events, the AJC has yet another story on the Cocktail Party game.

-- There will be at least one fewer frustrating defensive end in the SEC East this year.

-- While the baseball team waits to find out where it will play regionals, the softball team is headed to its first college world series.

-- Georgia's track & field squad had six players earn All-SEC honors.

-- And finally, I linked to this story when the Rocky Mountain News announced it was closing a few months ago, but I'm doing it again now, because there is probably no better salute to the military on a day like today than this. It's a long one, but I can't encourage you enough to read it.
