With Bowl Season in full force now, some contestants are separating themselves from the rest of the field.  Of course if Mary H continues to pick at her astounding rate, or if she had simply rated them 35-1 instead of 1-35 we may be singing a different tune.  Mary has picked 16 of 18 correctly [...]

There is no denying it now.  We are in the heart of Bowl Season.  Starting today and running up until January 2nd, there will be 15 games played.  That is more than the total 14 we have already put in the books, so look for things to start shaking out.  In fact, if you aren’t [...]

Last night was special for a couple reasons.  First and foremost (because it’s about me) I attended my first, and potentially only Maryland Basketball game of the year.  Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t like I don’t enjoy our Terps and Comcast, but living on the Eastern Shore makes it tough to get over to [...]

It is really hard to tell at this point who is in a good spot and who isn’t.  For example, Mary H only has 42 points, but she has a ton of points left to win, so being in last place could be a little misleading.  And those at the top, well they got to [...]

It wasn’t a pretty game.  It was however a win.  The Terps shook of the rust from a ten day layoff for finals to hold off a pesky Radford team, who is currently on a 10 game losing streak.  If you think it was bad, you could always be a Pitt fan.  The 13th ranked [...]

Before I get into this, I had to post it prior to tonight’s Boise State game, yet it will go up after the Boise State-ASU game, so it isn’t 100% updated, but it’s pretty close… As we anxiously await the Maryland Radford basketball game tomorrow night, I thought I would hold everyone over with a [...]

It’s Official, Mike Locksley is our new Offensive Coordinator.  This could have been called the world’s worst secret, if it wasn’t for the fact that no one was really trying to keep it a secret.  Coach Locksley returns to Maryland.  It is yet to be seen how this will affect our success on the field, [...]

My wife’s aunt recently bought my daughter a statue of a Maryland themed Santa with a little girl in a Terps Cheerleading outfit sitting on his lap.  On her list is written “Beat Virginia”.  Though I totally agree with the little girl, I also have a few other things I would like to add to [...]

Bowl Season is upon us.  If you tuned in for it, you saw a couple of games come down to the wire.  Temple rolled over Wyoming.  Extremely bad news for the Forrest entry, as he had 29 points riding on the Cowboys.  You could say quite the opposite for LeAnne’s entry as she jumps to [...]

Looking for some good Maryland Football news, wait, why am I even asking that?  Of course you are, we all are.  Well here is some, the Baltimore Sun is reporting that WR Tyrek Cheeseboro, DB Matt Robinson, DL Isaiah Ross, and LB Kenny Tate were all approved for medical redshirts.  I was certainly worried about [...]
