USwag


The following story was translated from Spanish to English for Big Pop


USwag


October 4, 2069


Pop, Junior, and me linked up for an old-fashioned talk out the other day. I had forgotten how happy they could be. Watching another people shout out to conversation and bring answers is something that I havent seen done for some time. In todays hectic world, sometimes we forget to hook up with our familys and friends and speak with other peoples.


During our linked talk out, Junior, who is all of 10 cycles, prodded Big Pop into thinking back to a time long ago. A time when USwags were the house name in NCAA Football.


“Big Pop, how good were the Swags back when you were a kid?”


“Oh Junior, they were beholding. You know, there was no one better. Most peoples forget that five editions were the best in the land. NCAA1983, NCAA1987, NCAA1989, NCAA1991, NCAA2001. That’s no lie.”


“NCAA2001? Man, that’s better than MaddenNFL2001!”


“Yup, NCAA2001…thats right. You know some history.”


“But Big Pop, that’s not far ago, is it?”


“Nope, thats from when I was your size.”


“Thats too much to belief Big Pops. I mean they not no good no more.”


“Thats ‘They aint no good no more.’”


“Sorry Big Pops.”


“But you right on Junior. They aint. But back then they was. You know that back then they wasnt called no Swags.”


“Really? What was they called?”


“Now if I remember this right, they was ‘The U Hurricanes.’”


“So how did they get the name USwags? I heard that a Swag was a swamp gata. You know…a swag?”


“So many questions! Thats what everone thinks. What you need to know is this. Swag aint really no swamp gata. Swag actually comes from the tude. My Pops told me that back in NCAA1991, The U was so good that the playas would dance around on the field and nobody could touch them. Peoples started calling that Swagga. My Pops said that sometimes the Swagga would go away for cycles and then it would come back. Peoples began celebrating the Swaggas return. Sometimes people said Swagga was back but it werent. Peoples were swagga this and swagga that. Soon peoples started calling the team the Swags. And since the team was Universal they was called USwag. And thats where we are today.”


“Big Pops, have you ever been to see the USwags play the game?”


“Naw, nobody ever see the USwags play for as long as I know. Its better to watch them on the wall. Seeing the game at the grass is only good if its the Fins playing.”
