Meet Orson Charles — Georgia tight end signee, Class of ‘09

Orson Charles, of Plant High (Fla.), signed with Georgia to play tight end. Here’s a little bit more about this new Bulldog in the recruiting Class of 2009. Welcome him to Bulldog Nation with congratulations below in our “Comments” area.

Why he likes UGA:“I feel very comfortable with the coaches. They [recruited] me the longest, one full year. I like how they attack at practice. They get after it. Every time [fellow UGA signee Aaron Murray] and I went to watch practices last year, they’d always have at least one fight. That’s not hatred; that’s tough love which builds character.”

George P. Burdell, aren’t you that same gender re-assignment person I read about, you applied for surgery, but the doctors asked why, because you don’t appear to have any male parts! Go back playing with your Barbie’s, and grooming your palm hair. Btw, son, fix my toilet while you’re at it, that’s what tech grads do best, well that and buying self-esteem books for virgin losers. At worst, OC won’t bolt for a DIV II team, like techies do.

It is funny to me how the gtu fans have replaced scu fans as the most delusional in college football. I must admit that scu has had more success againg UGA during the last 18 years (with out cheating as per the NCAA) than has gtu. I really don’t hate tech, it goes much deeper than that.

Mr. Burdell, The perspicacity with which you bloviate on this blog leads me to believe you are nothing more than an envious anthropod of the vespula genus from North Ave.

Using big words does not prove your point, it only emphasizes what an elitist piece of canine excrement you are, and we all laugh at your posts.

Please do, carry on Coleoptera Scarabaeoidea (dung beetle).

Hey George is the ‘p’ for pedantic? After you finish looking that one up you can take a look in the mirror and repeat “I am good enough. I am smart enough and gosh darn it, people like me.” If you repeat it enough times you just might begin to believe it. Then you can get off the UGA blog and go make some Techie friends. This way you have someone to share your hurt feelings with when the DAWGS roll all over your Jackets, beginning yet another winning streak over the North Avenue Trade School Bees.

Furthermore, anyone with a lick of football sense knows full well that the bug’s fluke “win” was a total gift from the vastly superior Dawgs son! UGA handed that game (gift-wrapped) to the Yellowjack@$$es in the 3rd quarter son! Next year, the UGA dominance over your 3rd rate ticks shall indeed continue!

Hey, G **PRICK”” Burdell, you’ve worked long and hard to broaden your vocabulary. It’s amazing what plenty of time and a dictionary can help you accomplish. Just imagine what you could have accomplished in life had you devoted the same time and energy to, say, building relationships? Had you done so, not only might you have friends, you might even have a woman. No, not the kind of woman you rent, but a real woman. The kind you can establish a relationship with, be intimate with, build a family with. Nah, not G “PRICK” Burdell. He’d rather embrace a dictionary than a woman. For a change, he’ll even caress a thesaurus on occasion. I hope you enjoy all future conversations you have with yourself.

By the way, spare me the drivel of how you have a beautiful wife, Ivy League educated children, and a fat retirement account. I don’t think either are found in a dictionary or thesaurus.

Georgie’s Kids did not have a chance being raised and forced into going to North Ave Technical School. Poor Kids. And on top of that listening to the way he talks. Hey George, that secondary education that you speaking about isn’t that the ones who have to ride the short bus and dropped off at the side of the building.

News Flash……..George P. Burdell, who originally posted as a Georgia Tech fan, has recently visited the UGA blog sites. Coach Paul Johnson has asked the AJC to “pull” his posting priveleges. Johnson went on to say he explained the word “commitment” to Burdell and a commitment was his word of honor. Stay tuned for further developments…

George P Burdell - speaking of “dense”, Chief said nothing about you riding his bus. He just asked you to pay his fare.

I mentioned that I heard you did a remarkable keeping his bus in service. You help him “carry on” as you always plead. Congrats, grease monkey.

  • The window of opportunity just shut in Athens
  • If UGA cannot win a national title with Stafford and Moreno, how do they win one without them?
  • If UGA cannot beat Georgia Tech with Stafford and Moreno, how do they beat Georgia Tech without them?
  • No “blackout”, “redout”, or “anything else out” can save them next year.
  • UGA fan just has to hope that they get more wins than players arrested in 2009!!!

George P. Burdell, I am a 14 year old 8th grader and I find it pretty humorous that all of your “big boy” words are on my vocabulary lists. Now it looks like to me that you have a son in the 8th grade and that when you feel like looking for nice words to make you sound smart you whip out his vocab list. Plus, I know you are not that smart because you are using thw words either incorrectly or not in the right place or at the right time. That shows me that you do not know what the word means or how to use it therefore you are just trying to throw out big words hoping someone doesnt notice that you are not very bright because they are used incorrectly.
