How's it Hangin? Vol. VII

The week that was........

UGA FOOTBALL
If no news is good news, it's been a great week. 2008 true freshmen start filtering in about 3 weeks from now for summer workouts. Fall practice begins in August, exact date TBA. 114 days until opening day.

UGA BASKETBALL
Practice cranks back up in October. The 2008 recruiting class is full. Recruiting news here.

UGA BASEBALL
UGA won another SEC series taking 2 of 3 from Ole Miss over the weekend. Georgia lost to Tech on Tuesday finishing the week with a 2-2 mark. We're heading to Vandy to take on the 21st ranked Commodores this weekend for 3 games and finishing the Tech series on Tuesday @ Turner Field. Right now, UGA appears to have a lock on the #1 seed heading into the SEC tourney that begins on May 21. UGA currently has a 3 game lead in the SEC East over 2nd place Vandy with a conference record of 17-16-1. LSU leads the West with a 12-11-1 record.

ATLANTA BRAVES
Kickin' ass & taking names. 6 games in 7 days.......all W's. I dunno how with 8 players on the DL, but whatever you're doin, keep it up. A 4 game set with Pittsburgh starts tonite followed by 3 in Philly. The Braves are currently 1 1/2 games behind NL East leader Florida with a record of 18-15.

ATLANTA FALCONS
Mandatory mini-camp opens tomorrow and finishes on Monday. Practice times are 10:30 am and 4:15 pm on Saturday and Sunday. The public is invited and it's free if you want to get on up to Flowery Branch & catch it.

ATLANTA HAWKS
The fairy tale didn't have a happy ending, with the Hawks absolutely not showing up to any of the 4 games played in Boston. On the brite side, we did take the team with the best record in the NBA to 7 games. Currently looking for another GM since Billy Knight resigned earlier in the week. Since Atlanta made the playoffs, they're not included in the draft lottery and will have the 15th overall pick in the draft.

ATLANTA THRASHERS
Have the 3rd overall pick in the draft coming in June.
