  • So much to say

    So, yes, it’s been awhile since I posted on here. Not sure why, but I just haven’t felt like writing anything. Sometimes I used to feel like I had to write these mini-essays about whatever was on my mind, and at times I wrote some really stupid stuff just because I thought I had to.…

  • Enough with the kicking

    We’re going to get a nasty reputation if we keep doing stupid things again and again. I know it’s getting extra attention from the administration because of Marcus, and because of that Weaver felt he had to act. I honestly believe that without the prior incidents, Weaver would have probably done nothing. And what’s up…

  • Pearl Harbor Day

    It seems a little weird to call today Pearl Harbor Day. I mean, we don’t call 9/11 Twin Towers Day or Pentagon Day. It’s been so long since 1941 that most people can’t really relate to what Americans went through back then, but there are the inevitable comparisons to 9/11, so I imagine most people…

  • Can’t Believe the Suckage

    Boy, my NCAA tournament bracket is really taking a beating. Tons of big upsets this year, but my final four are still alive (although Wake Forest is about to lose in double overtime). If I ever win a pool, I think it will be a sign of the end times. And the Hokies got smoked…

  • NIT-rific

    I’m sitting here listening to the VT-Temple NIT game on the computer since it’s only on ESPNU; we don’t get that channel (yet). It’s the second half and the Hokies are up by seven in Blacksburg. Man, it sure brings back memories of the last second Tech win over New Mexico State in 1995. Storming…

  • HBTH

    The Hokie basketball train keeps on rolling! A HUGE upset over Duke on Thursday night, and a butt-whoopin’ laid on Miami today. Might we be headed for the big dance? * I personally don’t think so. Probably the NIT, but how ’bout that for our first year in the ACC?

  • Roundball

    I’m sitting here watching the Hokies get destroyed by the Blue Devils. College football season is over, so it’s time I start turning my attention to college basketball. There hasn’t been much to pay attention to though for Hokies basketball though, except for a couple of seasons in the 90s. But, surprise, the Hokies have…

  • Bracket Busted

    Man, just as it seemed as if the first round of the NCAA Tournament was going to form in the first round (only three upsets, none of which were really shocking), the second round just destroyed my brackets. There’s always some upsets, and the trick is to pick which ones, but what’s up with the…

  • The Madness of the March

    My brackets are filled out, and the games are started. This is the best sports time of the year. I’m in couple of pools this year, and it was a tough decision filling out the brackets as there are no real dominant teams that have been kicking butt all season long. The key is to…

  • The Fit is Hitting the Shan

    POWs and casualities today over in Iraq. The reality of this whole thing has really started to set in. I’m all for this war and what we’re trying to do, but it really sucks to hear the bad news, inevitable as it may be. We really need to find our people, and stop those bastards…
