Barry Saunders Mentions SFN In A Column About His Son
As I write this, it is on the keyboard of my laptop — the external one that I use was ruined when I spit out my coffee laughing out loud a few minutes ago. I was reading the online edition of the Raleigh News and Observer, and came across local raconteur Barry Saunders’ column defending […]

The new school year is upon us and I still have some summaries of the 2008-2009 season to share, better late than never I suppose. This entry will take a look at conference and national titles for both the 2008-2009 school year, for the 9 year tenure of Lee Fowler as AD and for the […]
Best fans sellout season tickets – AGAIN – in midst of economic recession [Updated 12:45pm]
Shhhhh! I’ve got some secrets. The NC State football program has had only one winning season in the last five years, when the Wolfpack posted unspectacular 7-5 record in the 2005 season that we mustered more than 24 points only once (when we scored 54 points on Eastern Kentucky in the second game of the […]

NCAA strikes a much needed blow against injustice, SEMOST style
“The NCAA hasn’t busted a single big-time men’s basketball program in nearly two years. It hasn’t nailed a major football program in nearly 15 months. It’s the longest stretch of compliance for the once iron-fisted organization in 46 years and the second longest ever according to an analysis of the NCAA’s major infractions database.” […]
