Captain My Captain

Monday, August 31st, 2009

I can’t believe it is finally here.  I am doing a game week post!  The long hard wait is over.  There is going to be a lot to discuss and a lot of information revieled this week, so check back often.  However, I just want to give a quick look at our upcoming schedule (for [...]

Saturday Morning Terp Notes

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

Since it is raining this morning, I am not about to go out and jog, so I figured I would post some notes on all things Maryland.   There is not a lot of major news out there, but there are some things worth noting. First of all, we all know this site was started for [...]

Notes From Terps Football Final Scrimmage

Friday, August 28th, 2009

It is really starting to hit me.  Summer is coming to an end, and fall is rapidly approaching.  This time next week we will be on the west coast getting ready to tour Napa Valley before the Terps’ season opener at Cal.  Yesterday’s scrimmage was the final for the Maryland football team before they shift [...]

Forecast for Cal

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

Throughout the season, as part of our weekly preview, we are going to look at the current match up from a meteorlogical side.  It is certainly too early to do a weather forecast for the Cal game, at least when you look at a calendar and see how many days it is away, but when [...]

Terps To Hold Last Football Scrimmage Today

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

There isn’t a whole lot of news worthy information floating around out there following yesterdays practices, but it does seem Maryland Coach, Ralph Friedgen has began to work on putting a travel roster together.  He hopes to have that figured out after today’s scrimmage. If you remember from previous blog entries,  the ACC set a [...]

At Long Last, ACC Realeases 2009-10 Terps Basketball Schedule

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Let’s face it.  Those of us that attended Maryland in Mid 90′s until Friedgen’s arrival, knew exactly when basketball season began, because football was usually over in late September despite what the schedule said.  With that in mind, the ACC finally released the 2009-10 basketball schedule, and I for one can not be more excited.  [...]

It’s about Friggin Time!

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Shaun Hill was named the starting QB for the San Francisco 49′ers today.  As for me, my first thought is what has taken so long?  Hill played really well last year and actually sports a 7-3 record as a starter.  Now I’m not saying he will be the next Joe Montana, but going 7-3 with [...]

Quick Notes From Terps’ Second Summer Scrimmage

Monday, August 24th, 2009

This summer season is flying along, and before you know it, yours truly will be boarding a plane for San Francisco to see the Maryland Football opener against Cal.  While I am getting a little more excited each day, I am still hanging on to what is left of summer up here in New England.  [...]

Water, Water, Everywhere!

Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

As most people could probably imagine, Marylands Scrimmage last night was postponed to Sunday afternoon at 1:35 pm.  I have no idea what the weather was like in College Park yesterday, but I can tell you what it was like in Caroline County….BAD! Because we have Satellite internet (no Cable here in the sticks), we [...]

Some Saturday Morning Notes

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

It is hard to believe but we only have this Saturday and next Saturday before the chaos of College Football begins!  The good news is that every year the season seems to come faster and faster, the bad news is, well the very same thing.  When we were young and had no responsibilities the time [...]
