NFL Draft Around the Corner

ACC’s NFL Draft Picks & 1st Rounders
An interesting table of information available in this link. The information just adds to anyone who wants another reason to criticize Chuck Amato or John Bunting. But, why bother at this point?

Friday frivolity: “GOOOOOOOOAL! ROD-NEEEEY! ROD-NEEEEY!” etc.

UPDATED 4/1/2007 @ 17:00 (Scroll to Bottom) Since this is the third time that I’ve documented the OOC strength of schedule for the ACC, I couldn’t come up with anything new and interesting to put into an introduction. But I can point new-comers to the first two entries on OOC SOS and especially to the […]
Very Nice Article by the NY Times on Coach Yow
If you have a couple spare minutes today, take the time and read article from the New York Times. Yow has persevered even though the disease has spread to her skeleton and liver, and she knows that it will probably become fatal.
