Loss of 95.5 The Beat music is no big deal
The Red and Black
Atlanta’s hip-hop radio station, 95.5 The Beat, went off the air recently. Certain friends of mine voiced their outrage that a music station was being replaced by old white guys talking about boring old white guy things. Though I understood their viewpoint, I found myself wondering if it really was such a tragedy that 95.5 went the [...]

Worry about talent, not orientation
The Red and Black
I’m a huge fan of Sunday talk shows. From the “The Georgia Gang” in the morning to ABC’s “This Week” in the early afternoon, I love shouting at the TV over coffee and eggs. Between that and the Sunday New York Times, I’m glued to the sofa for hours. During my time spent with TV and newspapers, [...]

Gullickson to take on No. 1 seed in US Open: Junior hyped up for big match
The Red and Black
Last spring, junior Chelsey Gullickson walked out of the Dan Magill Tennis Complex in Athens as the women’s singles NCAA champion. Tonight, she faces a decidedly bigger challenge: the No. 1 seed in women’s singles, Caroline Wozniacki, and the 22,000-seat Arthur Ashe Stadium in the first round of the US Open. “I’m going to be on [...]

The Emmy Awards boast laughter, dance
The Red and Black
After having a day to bask in the glory of the 62nd Emmys, I realized how delighted I was by the telecast. Lately, major award shows such as this have often resulted in a few awkward chuckles, predictable winners and a disappointing overall production. Let’s first give some mad props to Jimmy Fallon. Though he has suffered more [...]

Georgia athletics made priority over academics and discipline
The Red and Black
God, country, family, sports. Such is the hierarchy of importance for many Americans since the first time we hit a baseball or threw a football. The majority of us have been surrounded since childhood with the spectacle of organized sports and the hero status accorded to those who can run fast, jump high or throw a ball [...]

Injured players return to practice
The Red and Black
Georgia’s last practice in full pads before Saturday’s season opener was one coach Mark Richt would like to have back. “I would have to say it left a little to be desired,” Richt said of Monday’s practice. “It wasn’t quite the tempo I was hoping for. I don’t think they were dogging it, but I thought [...]

Enough is enough: football players’ run-ins with the law have gotten incredibly out of hand
The Red and Black
Stop it, OK!? Just stop! Stop driving with suspended licenses, stop drinking and driving, stop getting kicked out of bars underage. University football players need to realize that there is a strong spotlight pointed as squarely at them as an ACC police officer’s flashlight. Like it or not, by signing on as a Georgia Bulldog, everything they [...]

Officials explain Florida ticket miscalculation
The Red and Black
Human error caused the recall of hundreds of student Florida tickets, according to the University’s Athletic Association. Associate Athletic Director Claude Felton said a miscalculation in determining which students met the criteria for Florida tickets was made Friday. The mistake was discovered after an initial e-mail was sent to students awarding them a Florida ticket, and [...]

WNEG treated unfairly by R&B I read the recent opinion regarding the “failing” WNEG news station. To make sure there’s no misunderstanding — you do realize that the station’s audience reaches out beyond Athens, correct? That for many of us in northeast Georgia, it is the only source of local news? The opinion expressed in your paper just seemed [...]

Man on the Street: The great debate about Prop. 8
The Red and Black
California needs to keep its flip-flopping to the beach — the back-and-forth Golden State court rulings on same-sex marriage are giving the rest of the country whiplash. In July 2008, California voters overturned a ruling that gave same-sex partners the right to marry. Earlier this summer Prop. 8 was ruled invalid by a U.S. District Court, giving [...]

Anti-hazing laws restrict our rights
The Red and Black
The University — as well as our federal, state and local governments — is denying us our right to be hazed. In the coming months, we’ll all inevitably hear stories about hazing from various University-affiliated and Greek organizations. Sometimes you’ll hear about it from a friend of a friend, or even read about it on the front [...]

After spending Monday at the Ramsey pool, Georgia was back on the practice fields Tuesday completing No. 14 of their 30 allotted preseason practices. As the Bulldogs approach the midway point of fall camp, Richt said he’s been pleased with what he’s seen thus far. “I told [the team] that from what I’ve seen I believe [...]

Cult flick ‘Troll 2’ plays free at Ciné
The Red and Black
You want to look away, but the logical, reasonable part of your mind just hurts too good to let that happen. It’s a phenomenon most people have experienced: watching movies that fly in the face of respectable storytelling and admirable pacing, movies you simply can’t ignore. They are so bad they’re good. “A lot of bad movies [...]

What’s old is new again: Historic building revived after improvements, discoveries
The Red and Black
After much construction and restoration, New College on North Campus is looking just that — new. Tuesday in the University Chapel, administration and the public witnessed the rededication of the more than 180-year-old New College — the third-oldest building on campus. During the early phase of the $4 million restoration project, campus architects uncovered remnants and artifacts [...]

Swedish sensation sweeps U.S.

The Red and Black
Three players for the No. 16 Georgia women’s golf team had at least a four stroke improvement in the second round of the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic in Athens on Saturday but Georgia was still unable to do much on the leaderboard. “Still bad, but not as bad today” said head coach Kelley Hester. “I told [...]

Diamond Dogs snap losing skid, top Mississippi State 7-4
The Red and Black
STARKVILLE, Miss. – Georgia snapped a seven-game losing streak by outlasting Mississippi State 7-4 Saturday in front of a crowd of 4,210 at Dudy Noble Field. Thanks in part to State’s deliberate style of play featuring a parade of hurlers and their proclivity for throws to first base on runners with miniscule leads, not to mention [...]
