If you follow me on Twitter or are friends with me on Facebook, you know that not only did I have to deal with the pain of seeing my Gators lose to Alabama, but I also had to change my profile picture and Twitter logo+background. Thankfully, I am no longer Nick Saban on Facebook. If the Gators lose again, I may have to be Les Miles. But it should not have to get to that. I will be up in Gainesville this weekend, making my first return since this past summer when I was studying for the Florida Bar Exam. I’m going to throw up another link to the new ChangeLegal.com. If you read this site, I have to imagine that you will enjoy reading the posts on that site as well. Here are some stories I missed over the past week:
