The fun police at UF and UGA have asked television networks not to refer to this weekend’s game, The World’s Largest Cocktail Party, as “The World’s Largest Cocktail Party.”

Ya know, instead of putting a moratorium on the phrase, why don’t the presidents pressure Jacksonville to mix in some extra security after the deaths of two UF students in two years? It’s a warzone up there, and it’s not because of a tradition-rich moniker.

> ESPN’s Chris Fowler: “How about ‘The World’s Largest Outdoor Cleaned, Scrubbed, All-America Picnic?’”
> CBS’s Tim Brando: “If my superiors don’t want me to say (The World’s Largest Cocktail Party), that’s fine. But as a broadcaster, I’m a little offended by the assertion that our use of (The World’s Largest Cocktail Party) has any kind of influence over how people behave at (The World’s Largest Cocktail Party).”
> UGA president Michael Adams: “I’m not on any crusade. I’m trying to preach realistic moderation, which happens to be what I believe personally. But I do not think the university can condone some of the behavior that has gone on (at The World’s Largest Cocktail Party).”
> CBS’s Verne Lundquist: “If I thought not using the phrase ‘World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party’ would diminish the amount of public drunkenness (at The World’s Largest Cocktail Party), then I would be more than happy to refrain. But in my experience is that is not the case. I wish the omission of the phrase (The World’s Largest Cocktail Party) had more relevance. But I’m afraid it doesn’t.”
