Breaking News from my 2 year old...

Sydney looked at me today with a serious face and said, "I pooped!" I think that's as honest and innocent a statement as I've ever heard! :)

Let me just say...

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!!!
;)

Tim Tebow...

All he does is win games. It isn't pretty, his passer rating isn't great, he isn't this, he isn't that, it doesn't matter! I am not a man of faith but Tim Tebow says he is. He says he believes and let's that belief guide him, will him to victory.

I judge no man for I don't have the right to. His faith drives him as money and sex and family drive other men. All I know is that he just wins games. He just wins games.

And he believes...in a higher power. I believe in ME...are we both right?

The BCS...

I have no problem with the National Championship game. I have a huge problem with the greed bowl, I mean, the Sugar Bowl. You people make me sick; all about the money, not about the win-loss record. I hope the game sucks and you don't make a freaking dime. Go Big Blue only because TECH SUCKS!!

The ACC Championship game....

Clemson 38
VT 10

Best team always wins! My son Sydney drew a picture this weekend and when I asked him what it was he told me "bird poop"! I believe bird poop sums up how the Chokies played...nice in-depth analysis, baby boy! GO HOOS!!!

Breaking News!!!!....

VT STILL SUCKS!!!! Go CLEMSON!!

What can be said about this week's opponent...

VT SUCKS!!!!!!!!

CAVS beat FSU on the road...3 times...VT is next on the...MENU

The officials made sure that Virginia broke their win less streak in Tallahassee not once, not twice, but three times in the last minute of the game. Bad call here, bad call there, hometown calls, it was as if the game was in freaking Blacksburg!! But as they have done all year the HOOS didn't fold!

The charge up the middle of the line forced the Florida State kicker to put a bit more height on his kick than he wanted to producing a bit more spin and a fade at the end to the left as the now finally victorious CAVS stormed the field! The team played hard all night and overcame the talented home squad as well as the inept officiating crew.

The plane ride home was very jubilant, full of hope and promise. The CAVS lost a good man to an injury, get well Billy Shautz, and Dom Joseph was hobbled a bit, but the TEAM prevailed! They now have everything to play for against the SCUM from Blacksburg...I'M READY...ARE YOU??

Cavs beat Duke...When did Duke start acting like VT??

The Cavs took care of the Blue Devils and their punk Coach this past Saturday. With a false swagger the Blue Devils entered the stadium in the middle of the UVA fight song. On the field they talked smack and couldn't back it up. I could have sworn it was VT on the field with the thug mentality that was going on.

After the 8th Duke player was drug off the field on a cart, the punks started to whine to the refs about rough play. In the fourth quarter the HOOS ate up the clock by running the ball down the throats of these punk chumps from Durham!

VT wannabee Duke minus the wins...PUNK A$$ES!!

PSU...

If it's all true, the entire administration from the top down should be fired IMMEDIATELY!!!!!

Maryland...

Big game Saturday for the HOOS...a win over the hated and always lewd terps and the Cavs go bowling!! LET'S GO HOOS!!!

UVA vs. Miami in primetime on ESPN..."The U" ain't shi..

As Perry Jones raced to the end zone to complete a 78 yard scoring strike former Hurricane great Michael Irvin was shown sobbing as his Alma mater was gashed in front of a massive television audience. The swag that "The U" claims to have is clearly a thing of the past and Irvin and his brethren had better get used to it!

The visiting Cavs dominated the time of possession, the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, and punked the Canes in their sorry half-full stadium. It's a good thing that the Canes were celebrating a former National Championship team because at it's current rate there definitely won't be any future squads holding that trophy.

Coach London and his staff executed their plan perfectly. Kudos to Perry Jones, the ACC's most underrated player, and to the offensive and defensive lines. Michael Rocco did a very nice job of beating the blitz and David Watford was very supportive and enthusiastic on the sidelines! A message to the clowns in Blacksburg...YOU BETTER BE READY NOVEMBER 26Th!!

N.C. State???

WTF happened this past saturday against N.C. State??? I'm not happy Coach London, get it together...another missed bowl season will hurt every aspect of the program!!! LET'S GO HOOS!!!

GT goes down in C-Ville!!!

How about those HOOS!! Underdogs at home to the mighty GT Yellow Jackets and their high powered running game! The return of Al Groh and his 3-4 defense...BLAH BLAH BLAH! The HOOS win 24 to 21, the crowd was great, Groh saluted the crowd as he left the field, bring on the WOLFPACK!!!


By the way...my 10th anniversary was this week...I have the most beautiful wife who gave me the most beautiful little boy...WILL YOU MARRY ME AGAIN MISS POOKS???

A wonderful fall weekend...

This weekend the "Team Scuba" family had a great time! Music class was outstanding complete with a very enthusiastic version of "grey squirrel" and free form noise making bells...and that was just the opening act!

Saturday afternoon post-nap turned into river's edge "walk in a weeds" olympics featuring Sydney's jump off the curb directly into traffic. Scared me and Mrs. Scuba, but thankfully everyone was ok. Despite the spike in blood pressure everything turned up roses. Sydney hit the slide, did pull-ups, and flexed for a little girl named Veda. Did I mention the sunshine and mid 70s temps?

Sunday was the crown jewel of the weekend. We hit the countryside for a little pumpkin patch farm fun. Sydney's first hayride, cow train ride, and bounce on the trampoline were moments treasured by the proud parents. He was fearless...which puts fear in us! Anyway, I know what you're all thinking, where are the sports in this post? Well, freinds, Tampa Bay lost and that other school in Blacksburg won, so you didn't miss anything and neither did I! Did I mention the sunshine and those mid 70s temps?

Coach London needs to pick a quarterback and how about those Clemson Tigers!

Michael Rocco or David Watford, that is the question! I really like Mike London but he must get his quarterback situation under control. Pick one and go with him NOW!! The offense had moved the ball but hasn't scored enough points. It is my humble opinion that there is a direct correlation between rotating quarterbacks and a lack of points! Other issues include poor special teams play and questionable coaching. Pick it up Coach London, pick it up staff, pick it up players!!

On the way home from the Virginia game last night I had the pleasure of listening to the radio broadcast of the Clemson vs. VT football game. It was such a treat to hear the boos raining down from the Hokie fans at LAME Stadium. The so called Hokie Nation headed towards the exits with plenty of time left in the third quarter after Clemson scored to go up by 20 points. The Tigers talked the talk and walked the walk. Speaking of talking the talk, the "U" invades LAME Stadium this weekend. Have the Hurricane warnings been issued yet, Mr. Beamer?? C-A-N-E-S!!!

Great win for the HOOS...9-11-11 and NYC

The University of Virginia played at Indiana University last night. After building a 20 point lead the young Wahoos imploded with turnovers that lead to immediate points for the Hoosiers. Panic would have been the normal reaction in this situation, however, the young Cavaliers remained patient and calm. Down by 8 points with 5:45 left in the game, they drove 77 yards in 15 plays to draw within 2. They then converted the 2 point play on a beautiful pass by Rocco to even the score at 31.

This set the stage for the play of the game by Senior defensive end Cam Johnson. On third and five he came free and leveled the Hoosier quarterback while stripping the ball from him at the same time. This play was worth of ESPN's top 10 play of the day, but because it was the team in orange and blue and not orange and maroon, ESPN didn't air it. No accounting for taste and we won't have room for them on our bandwagon after we take the reins of the State!

Robert Randolph kicked the game winning field goal as time expired securing the 34 to 31 win. It was a wonderful comeback, a true building block win that showed this young team's character. Coach London will impress upon the young squad that they must limit their mistakes but I fully believe they will learn and move forward. Bring on UNC!!

I am really looking forward to tonight's game between the Jets and Cowboys. It will be a very emotional night in NYC and I expect the patriotism and passion to be on full display tonight. The game should be outstanding, but the show of strength and national pride will far overshadow the contest. USA...you can't beat us, you can't beat us, and you never will!!!

US Open, opening night in the NFL, and College Football week 2

Love the US Open!! Can't beat good hard court tennis in Flushing New York! Great crowds, great passion, wonderful television! It's a shame we don't have more outstanding US players...Where have you gone Andre Agassi, John McEnroe, and Pete what's his name!



Lambeau field is the perfect setting for opening night of the NFL season. Historic, pristine, and as a bonus they are my wife's favorite team. Hmm...tonight I'll be pulling for the home team, not because I want them to win, I want my fantasy team to win...DUH!!!




Week 2 for the young Virginia Cavaliers brings their first road test against Indiana University. The Hoosiers are young as well and have a first year head coach. I'm hoping for a very spirited contest. I'd like to see the HOOS squeak out a tough road win and I'd be thrilled with a double digit victory. Let's hope that Coach London doesn't pull a GROH!!

Ines and Irene.......

We hosted a foreign exchange student this summer and it was a wonderful experience. Her name is Ines and she has really carved out a place in our hearts. She is friendly, caring, kind, beautiful, and comedic. We purchased a train ticket for her to depart Lynchburg and head to New York City for her last stop in the States. We were to drive her up yesterday and say our good-byes. But Hurricane Irene had other plans and altered our path tremendously.

Irene and her timing have ensured we won't get to say good-bye to our new friend; perhaps we shall never see her again. I miss her. We all do. It would have been nice to see her smile and hear her voice once more before she departed for her French homeland. I hope she gets to read this post, realize the impact she had upon us, and know that she is always in our hearts. Future students will benefit from her visit as we will open our home again after such a wonderful experience with her!

Bye Eye-nez...hope to see you soon!

Two weeks from today...College Football begins!!

We are only two weeks away...it's almost here! I think about all of the issues going on with the debt ceiling, the upcoming Presidential campaign, the sagging economy; I could go on with all the negative events creeping into the American psyche! Nobody seems to have any answers, only negativity and attitude.

Neither political party seems to care about anything but getting elected - full of hollow promises and venom. No substance, just hype. Speaking of no substance and just hype, a peek at the top 25 poll released this week shows many familiar names to college football fans. One name jumps out at me - Virgina Tech - the biggest reason is that they embody all that's wrong with the political system; no substance, just hype. Their fans are full of themselves, their schedule shows only one tough road game (in Charlottesville), and they haven't done anything in a big game for the last three years. Wait, neither has the man I voted for who promised me hope and change...

Did I mention it's almost football season??

College football practice begins...

Today the University of Virginia football team took the field for their first open practice. It's upon us, the joy of college football and all it's pageantry, there is nothing else quite like it. And boy am I glad it's back!

Tomorrow I will introduce a young French woman to her first American football experience and she is highly anticipating our trip. This will also mark the first live event my beautiful baby boy Sydney will attend, the first of many wonderful experiences with UVA athletics. My very patient wife will also be attending, very patient indeed!

So to all my followers and lovers of college football, I bid you goodnight with the promise of a full report of the festivities in tomorrow's blog!! GO HOOS!!

Is Belichick crazy...or crazy like a fox??

The New England Patriots have been very active in the free agent market. They had cap room and they had areas of need. The areas of need included a pass rushing defensive end and a go-to wide receiver. These areas of need were noticeably skipped in the draft by the Patriots. They decided to focus on other areas to bolster their roster. Instead, they gambled that with the lock-out firmly in place, they'd be able to acquire veteran help.

Of all the free agents available, it was obvious the Pats wouldn't be looking to pick-up any of the side show vets available, you know, like an Ochocinco or a Hayneswoth. That would truly be crazy...Belichick isn't that crazy, is he? Well...define crazy!

Belichick signed not only one, but both of the above mentioned players. Ochocinco and Albert Haynesworth are now with the Patriots. I've listened to all the pundits say this is crazy, it won't work, blah blah blah. The last time I checked, Belichick had three Super Bowl rings...crazy like a fox!!

NFL...............

FOOTBALL IS BACK...now let's fix the debt ceiling...wait...where are our priorities again?

SEC Media Day...

I love SEC Media Day, the coaches, the reporters, the cheating! Oh wait, I wasn't supposed to mention that part. Only the boosters, alumni, fans, and local sports radio talk show hosts can talk about that. Paying players, purchasing cars for players, lining up jobs for players, no class still play policies, the lowest academic standards possible...these are just a few of the everyday activities that take place in the SEC. Check that not the SEC as a whole, only those programs not named Vanderbilt.

The dominance of the SEC on the National Scene can't be questioned, the proof is in the winning percentage. But does anybody believe the playing field is really level? I mean OSU Coach Jim Tressel did some very creative things during his tenure to try and compete with the SEC during Bowl season and yet the Buckeyes were usually destroyed with the exception of the choke job Arkansas pulled last year.

All I heard today was academic support and resources, ladies and gentleman that's code for we have figured out how to cheat and make it look legit. Having said all of that, I don't blame them for what they do. It's a very lucrative business this college football, why wouldn't you have boosters and staff find every loophole that the NCAA hasn't closed to get an edge. I'm never going to stop watching because of any of the items I've mentioned...but maybe it's time we removed the term "student-athlete" at certain institutions.

Wait a minute...did the ole' ball coach just say he would pay his players out of his pocket and other coaches agreed??? That's honest and upfront, I like it, it makes sense and that's precisely why it won't happen, the same as in most lucrative venues, the only logic is money and profit, not common sense!

Good effort in Omaha Hoos!!

I am disappointed with the University of Virginia's baseball team not winning the National Championship this year but I couldn't be more proud to be their fan. The young men played their asses off and battled the defending National Champions for 13 innings before meeting defeat.

The post-game emotion poured out; tears of dreams now lost forever. During the press briefing afterward, one reporter who drinks at the throne of the cow college in Blacksburg asked the losing pitcher how he would ever cope with this loss. The young man gave a very polite and honest answer as he fought back the tears.

Watching him stand tall in this unenviable spot, watching as this jack-ass tried to hit him with questions to sell his rag copy to fans of an institution that will never sniff the College World Series, let alone an ACC Championship, I couldn't help but be proud of how he handled himself and represented the team on his jersey.

He could have pulled a Vick, said a few obscenities, and stuck up his middle finger, or maybe stomped on the reporters foot...but instead he gave him a well-thought out and articulate answer. Yes, Virginia, there is life after football for Cavaliers...not so much for castrated turkeys.

Hoos are OMAHA Bound!!!

How about those Cardiac Cavs!!! Two outs, two strikes, bases loaded, down one run, and things were looking bleak...until the Cardiac Cavs rip a base-hit up the middle that scores 2 and sends the Hoos back to Omaha for the College World Series!! Coach O'Connor is outstanding, poised, and has such belief in his team!

On Sunday the Cavs closer was roughed up a bit and hung his head after the game. With everything on the line on Monday, Coach O'Connor put the ball right back in the closer's hand and told him he had FAITH in his ability to get it done. This act of loyalty and confidence is exactly why these kids play so hard for this coaching staff. They BELIEVE!!

It was almost as if the Cavs heard my now famous expression, "in lieu of gifts, send gifts!" and boy, did they give me a gift I'll never forget. I was able to share this moment with baby boy Sydney and we both clapped and jumped and celebrated the dramatic win...I'm hoping a National Championship is the encore!!

Rafa wins...Again...What's wrong with LeBron?...

Rafa won the French Open for the sixth time in seven years on Sunday and his victim was once again Roger Federer. I am a very strong advocate for Roger Federer; he is classy and extremely pleasant to his fans. His game is effortless and his artistry unmatched! It's truly a shame that he just doesn't match up well with Nadal. Nadal is all effort and hustle, which I do appreciate, but it isn't the type of style that I enjoy watching on the tennis court. And now it seems he is getting a bit cocky, which works just fine if you have a rival who will engage in this behavior. McEnroe vs. Connors anyone??

LeBron James had a woeful game 4 in the NBA Finals. He didn't shoot well, had several turnovers, and seemed to shy away from the ball at crunch time. I personally like LeBron James, but in order to erase all the doubt about how good he actually is he must STEP UP!! He had a few moments in the Eastern Conference Finals but so far in THE FINALS he has been little better than a role player.

As I saw in a recent movie trailer, the debate about Kobe vs. LeBron is heating up at water coolers everywhere. But right now, the argument is, in fact, one-sided...Kobe has 5 Championships...LeBron has a nice endorsement deal and a the moniker "King James"...better shun the shrinking violet routine, LeBron, lest the haters bury you!

Jim Tressell...The University of Michigan's favorite head coach!

The man wore a sweater vest...A SWEATER VEST...he had to to be guilty of something! He promised to beat the Wolverines and he delivered 9 of 10 times. He promised to win a National Championship, which he did once. He promised that Ohio State fans would be proud of their team and it's effort, and for the most part they were. He won National Championships at Youngstown State, he was the classic intellectual head coach. But look deeper...

Fast forward to the present...Mr. Sweater Vest is on the front page of Sports Illustrated, looking oh so professorial! There is only one problem, the sweater vest was as filthy as an SEC recruiter or booster!! This man suckered in the Ohio State fan base, delivered on his promises, but only under the most false pretenses!

Players selling rings, gear, tickets, whatever they could sell! Accepting cars, accepting cash, accepting who knows what else...and ole Sweater Vest turned a blind eye to everything!! As this investigation goes deeper and deeper it will reveal that the same behavior was taking place at Youngstown State, it just wasn't being investigated by Sports Illustrated and Michigan's irritated fan base!!

The NCAA needs to SMU the Ohio State Football program for the good of all College Athletics! The message needs to be sent clear and hard, this garbage and win-at-all-costs attitude needs to be checked immediately...but will they have the guts to do what needs to be done??

The End of the World...Wait...Oh...the end of the Bulls!!

Hello, World! I'm so excited that the World didn't end on Saturday! It turns out the gentleman who made this prediction had counted so many dollar bills donated to him by poor souls desperate for a messiah that he got his days mixed up. I guess after you count to 72 million all the other numbers kinda jumble together and it really messes up your spin on how you interpret the good book.

How does this relate to sports, you may ask? Well, it doesn't, but I couldn't let this go without pointing towards the greed involved with this little prediction. I understand how desperate times lead folks to look for hope anywhere they can; it's a shame they chose this gentleman and sent him their hard earned money. Wait a minute...this guy could run for the Republican Presidential Nomination...and Sarah Palin could be his Vice President...no...Donald Trump??

On a happier note, the Chicago Bulls are just two games away from finishing a respectable second place in the Eastern Conference. They have had a wonderful season but it's Lebron's time! He is the King, just ask the media...He can do no wrong...he made a prediction that...OH WAIT...the world is going to end...when Lebron wins the NBA Championship! Unfortunately, I don't have a date and time!

The NFL Draft.......Russell Wilson.....and the NBA Playoffs

Cam Newton was the first pick of this year's NFL Draft. Or should I say, Scam Newton. Usually the most important position on the field is the one spot where character truly counts....apparently not to the Carolina Panthers. The off the field issues with Scam Newton are well documented and I have no idea why the Panthers management has chosen to disregard them. By the way, Mr. Clausen, you're best bet is the waiver wire!

It appears as though Russell Wilson, formerly the starting quarterback of NC State, has been given a full release from his athletic scholarship. Rumors are beginning to swirl that he may end up at the University of Virginia playing for head coach Mike London. Wilson is a product of the Commonwealth and he would be welcomed with open arms......I'll keep you posted Wahoo Nation!!

Thankfully the first round of the NBA playoffs is almost over. The first round is truly boring....thankfully the second round starts this weekend. It would be nice for the refs to find their whistles in this round.....may make for some much more watchable games!!

The Blue/Orange Spring game is upon us!!

Thank goodness for Spring football!! The weather has taken a wrong turn and headed back towards winter, we still haven't brought all or our troops home, and now Scott Walker is breaking as many laws as possible to push through his agenda.......but Spring football is here!! The QB battle at Uva is heating up, two sophmores, one red-shirt freshman, and one true freshman are in the mix for 1st team snaps. The Spring game should give Wahoo Nation an idea of who will be running the show in September. My money is on Mike Rocco to be the starter, Strauss and Metheny co-no. 2's, and David Watford will red-shirt. Mike Rocco has all the intangibles and is a leader in the huddle. Mr. Watford will be heard from however, and very SOON!! The other big news from the Spring game is the annual jersey sale! This year it's the home uni's from 2001 to 2006, a huge amount of talent wore these uni's in 03 and 04. I'm hoping for a Hagans and Hall and Copper....we will see what happens!!

VCU and Butler........2 Reasons why I love March Madness! Why hasn't Jim Tressel been fired??

VCU and Butler aren't exactly household names in the College Basketball world. Last year Butler did make a once-in-a-lifetime run at the National Championship but those runs are few and far between unless you're an ELITE program. Well Butler is now trying to scratch it's way into the ELITE picture with a second consecutive trip to the Final Four! The Bulldogs are lead by a young and fiery Coach and a pit-bull Senior Class! They play hard-nosed, tough, man to man defense and are mentally stout. They have scrappy guards, share the ball, and function as a COMPLETE TEAM.....that's what you have to do to compete with traditional powers loaded with 5 star talent. This is an easy team to root for....they embody the underdog this country loves....speaking of underdogs... How about those VCU Rams?! The talking heads at ESPN, that seem to think they know it all, hammered the Selection Committee on giving the Rams an at-large berth in the big dance. Hmm....so how does that crow taste?? This team is gonna upset Kansas today and head to the Final Four! Once they arrive those folks at ESPN will be praising them and kissing their A$$! I almost forgot in the delirium of March Madness about Jim Tressel and Ohio State. Turns out ole sweater vest knew all about his player's inappropriate conduct and was forwarding emails to Pryor's handlers. Hmm, I guess Ohio State is really the win at all cost school they claim not to be. How does a school with a huge athletic department budget, obvious pay for play practices, and bend-the-rules-at-all-costs-to-win attitude not have more National Championships.....oh that's right...they have played SEC schools in those games.....and LOST!!! Oh wait, what am I saying, you can't out corrupt the SEC so I guess Ohio State lost in that arena to huh?!

Charlie Sheen....For President.....Really!!

With the looming NFL lockout, the crisis in Wisconsin, and the boredom of baseball upon us, it's time to focus on the 2012 Presidential election. Given the poor job done by both the major political parties right now, we as a nation need to look to a third party alternative. Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you the soon to be Presidential hopeful, Charlie Sheen!! That's right boys and girls, THAT Charlie Sheen.....Hear me out!

This man shoots from the hip, can pass a drug test, and is a proud father. He obviously can relate to everyone; just look at how his twitter account blew up one day after he started it. He believes in suing, capitalism, and himself, and he definitely thinks highly of our nation's female population. He would listen closely to his advisers due to the extensive practice he has had with his lawyers.

My fellow Americans, as you head to the ballot box next year, remember that Charlie Sheen is the only option to get this country back on track. He believes in "Winning".....shouldn't we all!!??

Mike London's first recruiting class......The Future is NOW!

Mike London signed a top 20 recruiting class for the University of Virginia on February 2nd, 2011. The class includes 17 players from the state of Virginia....much to the chagrin of the Agricultural school located in Blacksburg. Several of the soon to be 1st years will be on the field immediately! I can't wait for the Spring game this year, so much optimism and hope. Two 1st year players will be on the field for the Spring game. One a promising QB prospect from Hampton the other a promising defensive end from the '757". The 757 is fertile and Coach London is firmly entrenched there!

The only way to duplicate this recruiting success is by winning on the FIELD!!! The Cavs must win at least 6 games and go to a minor bowl this year. It's imperative for the rebuilding process and it will show the potential recruits that they will be successful here. The combination of academics and athletics would be such a wonderful recruiting tool. I'm hoping Coach London can get it done in 2011.....and a win over VT would be SWEET!!

Stanford won...Andrew Luck makes the right call..and did I mention Stanford won!

Touchdown Stanford......I'm not sure those two words will ever sound any better than they did on Monday night when the mighty Cardinal handled the castrated turkeys from VT!! Stanford ran the ball down their throats, threw it over top of them, and effectively neutralized Tire Rod...I mean Tyrod Taylor and exposed VT as a perennial fraud.....1-27 and counting versus real competition!! Now it's time for the rest of the ACC to get off their bums and take back the ACC from VT, a new Champion that's actually worthy of the ACC crown must step forward!

Andrew Luck, the quarterback who lead the destruction of Pud Foster...I mean...Bud Foster's overrated defense has decided to stay in school. He would have been the number 1 pick in the upcoming NFL draft, making millions of dollars. Instead he will avoid the bad press of the looming NFL lockout, get his degree from an elite academic institution, and win the PAC-10...not bad Andrew and you made the right call!

Wait.....Hokie Nation....I think Stanford just scored again!!!!!!!!

It's been too long..........Go Stanford!!

The last few months have exposed the role that my blog plays in my life......there haven't been any posts! But it's a New Year and I'll try to stay consistent. The Holidays were gone in a flash, time with family and friends now make way for the grind! No sense in looking back on 2010, was a year to forget with the exception of Dionne and Sydney...so let's move forward.

The bowl season has been very mixed with way too many blow-outs and too few close games. I am hoping that trend continues tomorrow and Stanford rolls the intellectually challenged squad from Blacksburg. Speaking of intellectually challenged, how about the egg that Mike Vick laid on Tuesday vs. Minnesota......MVP my a$$!!!

Uva recruiting looks good, basketball team beat VT and has been battling, things are looking up in beautiful downtown Charlottesville!! Tampa Bay has a winning record and something to build on for the future, the Miami Heat are finding themselves.....wow.....my sports world is looking very bright and upbeat for 2011!!
