ESPN host has spirited response when asked if 'this is the year' for UGA football
ESPN personality Elle Duncan was a guest on Tuesday’s Paul Finebaun show, and she was asked “if was the year” for the UGA football team. That launched the Atlanta native into a spirited reply: “(ESPN colleague) David Pollack said to me at the beginning of last year, ‘You watch them Dawgs this year?’ Watch them do

OMG
That is one of the most **** comments I have ever heard, the Civil War ended in 1865, and Georgia has Won National Titles in Football, Baseball, Golf, Swimming & Diving, Gymnastics, Equestrian, Tennis, and Track & Field, I'm pretty sure if they had been cursed, they wouldn't have any titles at all, I wouldn't even waste my time watching, or listening to Paul Finebaums show, he's no better than a Jerry Springer.
Elle Duncan needs to have a baby and name it Tecumseh to help break the curse. I can't believe anyone is actually responding to this notion like she was serious, but in this climate of today it does not surprise me one iota. Holding on to statues, flags, and lost causes is so funny to me while our state of Georgia is purple turning blue. Yall have a blessed day.
Civil War....? Weren't Alabama and South Carolina part of the Confederacy? What a silly, silly statement.
Bulletin board material if I ever saw it!!!!!
We've got any number of posters here more qualified to offer opinions on the Finebaum show than this ESPN bot. Go Dawgs!
Who?
That is the expression of suffering from a long-standing Georgia fan. LOL! I feel her.
After reading the comments below, you guys do know that her husband was joking, right?
"cursed because of the civil war"? THat explains Clemson and Alabama's lack of success.
Airhead.
Ah, a local girl. So like the rest of us, she really wants UGA to dominate but secretly knows it will never happen.
And yeh I know it was a joke, but didn't really care for the southern shaming about the civil war. What we should shame is the ongoing culture war.
Good idea. All of 'em should quit trying to pick winners this far out. They make these definitive predictions when the probability is obviously against them. Then want to blame the team for not meeting expectations. Worst is, then another bonehead thinks the story is worthy of writing another story about!!! **** and wait for the season to get started.
When ESPN farts, we can rely on Dawgnation to smell it for us.
Great work, Mike. The Pulitzer is on the way.
Who?
With that defeatist attitude we probably won’t. Geez
I watch ESPN only when I have to (GA football telecasts), and I'm sure that I'm not the only one with that opinion.
She chooses UGA Basketball, and talks about being "burned".. Get the medics ready, she'll suffer 3rd degree burns cheering for the DAWGS roundball team. Another so called sports "expert" who is truly clueless.
