Hello everybody,

My name is Mark J. aka Faja (to my daughter at least). I’m starting this blog/vlog for a couple of reasons. One, I have a passion for college athletics, namely Southeastern Conference college athletics and two, I’m retired and don’t have a lot going on. LOL!!

Okay, full disclosure, I have no formal qualifications except that I was born into an SEC family. My parents were both Florida Gators, my uncle was a Georgia Bulldog, two of my sisters are Ole Miss Rebels and another is a Tulane Green Wave (formerly an SEC school). One of the Ole Miss Rebels went to medical school at OU in Norman. Of my three best friends in the world, one went to LSU, another went to Mississippi State, and the third is a military veteran and crazy Florida Gators fan. My favorite connection to the SEC, however, is that my beloved daughter is a Mississippi State Bulldog.

Fortunately, or un-fortunately for yours truly, my parents were both academics, and I was able to attend college at a small private university for free and NO, IT WAS NOT VANDERBILT, …in case you’re wondering!

I live in the Houston area now, so I’m beaten to death with UT and Texas A&M on a daily basis. I have former in-laws that live in Columbia, SC and old friends that live in Columbia, Missouri. And for the sake of transparency, I have two ex-wives that graduated from Ole Miss, you woulda thought after the first one that I…well, nothing. I’m guessing that’s partially why I’m a big “Hail State” guy! I’m just sayin!!

So, Let’s get started! In the header at the top of the this page there are drop down menus that list each team. Follow that to the page of you favorite team, or your least favorite team, or whichever team you happen to be trolling this week.
