Hi AJ,

UGA alumnus here. I just wanted to pass along that I really enjoyed watching you wear the red and black here. If you had to pick your favorite college opponent, the one that really got your motivation up, which would it be?

Pleased. You should be pleased.

Thunderpants... the only acting role Hulk Hogan can get anymore at this point is the washed up version of Thunderlips.

Most of the time I would just say they were annoyed at taking 5 minutes to show us where to hook in.

Thanks for the response. What are you up to now?

Hey there,

I'm a TD for the videoboard for a big SEC school. I've been doing it for 7 years now, as well as camera/replay/graphics programs. Done football, basketball, gymnastics, baseball, pretty much all the major sports. Tons of fun- high pressure sometimes, but the knowledge that 100,000 people are seeing what I'm doing on the big jumbotron gives me a rush.

We always go out and take 3 clean camera feeds from the TV truck to supplement our own cameras (we have 5 of our own). Do the TV guys hate that? They oblige us, but sometimes they seem to act pretty annoyed. Also, CBS/ESPN never shares the Skycam which is a bit disappointing but I guess I understand not wanting to give up the "specialness" of that angle.

Also, if I ever wanted to get in on the production team of the TV guys, what would be the best way to get in do you think?
