rOar

Ain't it cute how I capitalize the O in some of the blog headlines? It's cuz sometimes I just can't think of anything else to say. But this tiger-stripped OV is so cool that doesn't really matter. This is from Lauren waaay out in Colorado.

Jeff

yOga!

Kudos to TU shooter dude Jason Pratt for spotting this gorgeous OV — and in front of a yoga studio, to boot. That's like a twofer, the double jackpot on that one show and stuff. WTG.

the prize for the double thing is the bottom pic of the Mazda provided by TU photographer Bruce Lipsky.

Thanks guys.

Old Reliable

Paid off the RAV4, got the title in the mail and I'm celebrating by gOrging myself on this sweet OV provided by Larry up in Yulee. Figured "reliable" was a good way to describe my trusty RAV!

Jeff

Woot!

This one is from Liz Van Hooser. "saw this today in St. Louis and thought of you." Awww. Thanks Liz!

gOrgeous!

From Rachel Ann Elsea, who snapped the pic in Bamberg, Germany in 2008. She referred to it as a "sexy twin" to the prior post. Agreed.

Black Orange Vehicle Blog

That's today's name for the blog thanks to this super-awesome-neat-totally-cool-awesome vehicle provided by my pal and Miami U grad Lauren. She spotted it somewhere in Colorado recently and posted the pic on Facebook. She asked if it qualified for the blog, given the vehicle is only a tiny bit Orange.

I say, OH HAIR YES! The Orange trim definitely quals the pic.

I've included a pic of former UT QB Jonathan Crompton in the Vols' black jerseys just in case someone wants to argue this decision.

Thanks, Lauren!

Uh-O, Ugly-O

Orange is never ugly, except when it's on a Florida jersey (and that ain't Orange, anyway). But Tennessee's offense seems to be pretty ugly, according to reports from the recent Orange and White game at Neyland Stadium.

"There were only two touchdowns all day," The Tennessean's David Climer wrote. "Maybe the Vols are that good on defense. A more likely explanation, however, is that this team is very limited offensively, with a short-handed, inexperienced offensive line and unproven quarterbacking."

Oh well. At least the media is preparing Vols fans for what could be a difficult, ugly season. But hey, what Orange-blooded Tennessee fan wouldn't prefer to see ugly football over good hoops?

Or this awesome Orange tractor? It was provided by faithful blog reader James Rink up yonder in Coffee County, Tenn. He snagged it off a Web site somewhere and it's so sweet I decided to break the rule against publishing non-original art.
