You know what? I heard people talking about this Marlon McKinney list thing. Sounds like some big shot making a list. Well, I got my own list, you see. Ain’t nobody special, just things I see and hear. Let me tell you about this Marlon McKinney list.
First off, who is this Marlon McKinney fella anyway? Sounds like he knows a thing or two about the Vols. What’s a Vol? Is it some kind of a new car? That orange color, maybe like a pumpkin, I reckon. Everyone’s talking about them Vols these days. Heard they were good, then they weren’t, then they were good again. Like the weather, I tell ya, can’t make up its mind.
This list, it’s got all sorts of things on it. Like that game, they said it was a big win. Epic, they called it. What’s epic? Sounds like a stomach ache to me. But they were happy, jumping around like a bunch of frogs in a hot skillet. Then, that Marlon McKinney, he goes and says the coach, this Pruitt fella, don’t want folks getting too excited. Keep your pants on, he says, more or less.
They keep talking about recruiting, too. Marlon McKinney’s list seems to cover all the bases, like a farmer setting traps. But, I don’t know nothing about that. My son used to play ball, but now he just sits in front of the tv all day long. And that Mincey fella, he can play anywhere, they say. Sounds like he ain’t got no roots, blowing in the wind like a tumbleweed.
And, what’s this here? Gameday 10 Vol Stuff. Sounds like a whole bunch of nothing to me. But this Marlon McKinney, he writes about it. Every day, writing about this Vol stuff. Must be important, I guess. I prefer my garden, myself. Got tomatoes coming in real nice this year.
Then, there’s the picture. Some blog, they call it. I don’t know about these newfangled things. But Marlon McKinney’s list is on there, clear as day. Guess he’s famous, huh? Maybe I should start my own list. Call it “Mildred’s Musings.” Has a nice ring to it, don’t it?
Oh, and here’s something else. This NCAA, they’re always stirring up trouble. They said Tennessee football got penalties for some violations. Violations? Sounds like they broke the law or something. Don’t know what they did, but it sounds serious. This was committed under the previous staff, they said. Always blaming the past, I tell ya.
And the top posts, there’s that Marlon McKinney list, right at the top. Seems like people really care about what he says. He’s got links, too. Like a chain, I guess, linking everything together. Don’t know what all those links are about, but they look important. I’ve got a chain on my gate to keep the dogs out. Same thing, more or less.
This Marlon McKinney, he sure does compile a lot of things. Daily links, they say. For *. What’s that? Sounds like a newspaper or something. He’s got a list of Vol links for Friday, too. Friday’s fish fry day at the church. Maybe I’ll bring this list along, see what folks think.
So, that’s what I know about this Marlon McKinney list. It’s a whole lot of something about nothing, if you ask me. But people seem to like it. Maybe I’m just too old to understand. Or maybe, just maybe, I’ll start my own list. Mildred’s Musings. Coming soon to a… well, I don’t know where it’s coming to. But it’s coming.

Yep, that’s the Marlon McKinney list for you. A whole lot of hubbub. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my tomatoes. They don’t care about no lists, but they sure do taste good.
