New Mailbag Feature: Ask a Florida Gator Cheerleader
Friday, September 19, 2008
 My lack of affinity for Florida Gator girls has been well-established. Despite this fact, I'm now facebook friends with a large number of Florida Gator girls who love Dixieland Delight, the column, my beard, honestly, I'm not sure why they like me. Anyway, as a token of good will during Florida-Tennessee week, I decided it was time to allow a representative of Florida Gator women to answer a weekly question in the mailbag. The question will come from y'all, but I've provided the first week's two questions.
And I also decided the best possible person to answer these questions would be Rachel, a former Florida Gator cheerleader, who is still an undergrad at the school. (Note: The girl pictured above is not Rachel.) I didn't want you guys to stalk her so we've got a picture of another Gator cheerleader up above.
Here goes with the first questions. As you can see, in case you had any doubt, I'm an extraodinary interviewer.
1. What's the most obnoxious thing anyone has ever chanted to you while you were cheering on the field?
"The most obnoxious thing that any opposing fan has yelled at the cheerleaders would be, 'Gator Cheerleaders have the clap!' (while chomping at us)."
2. What's your favorite Little Debbie snack?
"My favorite Little Debbie snacks are the Star Crunch cookies. However, I weigh 90 lbs. and have very skinny arms, so what's up?"
Beaver Pelt Trader of the Week and more emails coming up later this afternoon. We had a rough night on the Strip in Knoxville last night so we're off to a slow start.
How lame are the American's Ryder Cup shirts by the way? Who made this decision?

Travis has become enamored of several objects, phrases or events which he frequenly references in the column. Among the most frequent:
'Bama Bangs - a term coined by Travis to refer to southern men's hairstyles that feature prominent bangs for no apparent reason. Brodie Croyle and John Parker Wilson are oft-cited violators of 'Bama Bangs rules.

When Clay Travis, acclaimed author of Dixieland Delight, decided to spend the 2008 season up close and personal with UT football, he—and every other college football aficionado—thought he was in for a rollicking ride with one of the leading contenders for the national title. After all, when the Vols kicked off the season on September 1, the defending SEC East champions were ranked 18th in the country. As head coach Phillip Fulmer prepared for the game, he reflected upon a coaching career that included an astounding 147 victories, two SEC championships, and a national title. With 34 years at UT under his belt as both a player and coach, the Tennessee native had just signed a contract extension that projected to keep him at the university long enough to become the winningest coach in program history.

There is no college ball more passionate and competitive than football in the Southeastern Conference, where seven of the twelve schools boast stadiums bigger than any in the NFL and 6.5 million fans hit the road every year to hoot and holler their teams to victory.

The newly favored man is not really a man at all, but a hairless, effeminate, germ-fearing, non-meat-eating, exfoliating, wristband-wearing woman of the worst order. We as men are told that we must embrace the sacred feminine in ourselves, even if it doesn't actually exist, and become the very quintessence of woman, plus penises. This situation is untenable. This trend must stop.

Clay Travis is the only former student manager in the history of college athletics to marry an NFL cheerleader. He managed to pull this off despite an irrational affinity for the television shows Dawson's Creek and My Super Sweet 16. While being raised in Nashville, Tenn., Travis developed a healthy obsession with college sports and Alyssa Milano. As a teenager his greatest accomplishment was taking a doo-rag wearing Luke Duke (balling as Tom Wopat) to the hole at the Nashville YMCA.
In the midst of a stellar legal career during which he specialized in rewarding the unjust and punishing the oppressed, Travis began writing for CBS Sports's SPiN section in September 2005...
