Before I get on with this post I just want to say how relieved I was for them to win that game last night. For about an hour and 20 minutes plus it looked like one of those night, and to steal one of Chris’s texts from the game, I was fully resigned to the fact that [...]
Maryland has postponed the UVA basketball game scheduled for Wednesday evening due to the impending storm. Forecasters are proposing another 10″ to 20″ in the D.C. Metro area. This now means that the Terps will be playing 3 ACC games in the span of 5 days. Two of which will be on the road. This [...]
Before I get into the Terps, I just want to say that today was my first 100% Snow Day, not Liberal Leave, not come in late, but pure 100% Snowday, since high school. Even in the Presidents Day Storm (Click here to read an article on that very subject written by my dad President\’s Day Snowstorm 2003) [...]
Last nights win over FSU was huge, I don’t need to spell that out for you. We played hard and though it wasn’t anything that resembled pretty basketball, it looked good enough for me! The reason this game was so important, other than it being a much cherished road win, is because it puts us [...]
There is a scene in Braveheart where they are getting ready to fight the Battle of Falkirk. The English sneak a march on the Scottish and bring a whole army, including Welsh Bowman and Irish Infantry. Upon hearing the news, the Scots are baffalled. The Irish are fighting along side of the English? Only when [...]
I’m not going to recap the Duke loss. I can only re-write the same material so many times. Turnover this, penalty that…whatever. I find the fumble of the punt to end the game more ironic now than anything to get angry about. Sure if Tony Logan held on to it we might of had a chance to [...]
God do I miss “My Name is Earl”. I’m just now coming to grips with the idea that it isn’t coming back. And you know who I blame? Reality TV! You can throw one of those shows together in 3 minutes for a fraction of the price and people will watch it. But now for those [...]
Every year there is one game that comes out of nowhere and makes you scratch your head. Actually it is usually more than one game. There is the one we have no business winning, that we pull out, and there unfortunately is one we have no business losing that we cough up. So far, we’ve [...]
The athletic department at the University of Maryland has long term leases on 41 of the 64 suites at Byrd Stadium. That number is 7 short of the number required to pay the annual debt requirment for the new Tyser Tower addition. In today’s Washington Post the university also reports having only sold 357 of the [...]
Well I’m sitting down here in North Carolina, aka the heart of ACC Country as I begin my vacation. Up in College Park there are a bunch of kids in the exact opposite situation. For tomorrow is the start of fall practice, and for all intensive purposes, the start of the season. In a way [...]
