I should know to hold off on hitting send until all my thoughts on the 
matter settle a bit.

Remember that there are mirror servers involved, so the fact that I can 
reach functional git servers from Virginia (or my test point closest to 
you physically, in Kansas City) doesn't really prove that you're not 
hitting a broken one from Texas.  Try something like

wget -S https://git.freebsd.org/src.git/

which will show you the redirects and IP addresses of the actual servers 
you're hitting, and complain bitterly if wget itself can't validate the 
certificates, from one or more machines on your site.  This should be 
informative.

And if you have actually tripped across a mirror server that is broken, 
reporting the IP address involved would be very helpful.
