I was at the game on Sunday night and have not yet had the opportunity to watch the telecast on Tivo. However, multiple friends who watched the game at home have mentioned that ESPN’s coverage of Marcus Vick and brother Michael Vick was (conservatively) exhausting and (biasedly) nauseating. On PackPride’s Premium Message Board, a Wolfpacker […]

Pivotal Year for Still Popular Amato
The Winston-Salem Journal’s John DeLong set the stage for NC State’s 2005 Football Season as one that is most pivotal for the Wolfpack program and Head Coach, Chuck Amato. As much as I think that Chuck Amato is (as he should be) on extremely strong footing in Raleigh…I do agree with DeLong’s perspective that this […]
Football Junkies Happy
I don’t know if you are a Wolfpacker who only surfs the internet during the week while at work or if you also have a computer at home to keep you sane on the weekends. But, whatever kind of Wolfpacker you may be…you may want to do some ‘back-surfing’ through the weekend archives of many […]
Quote: State fans have Delivered
“There is no doubt. NC State fans have to be stretched pretty thin because they have been asked to dig into their pockets big time and they have delivered. That is a tribute to both Coach Amato for kinda rallying the troops and also the fans because all of that new stuff – that beautfiul […]
ESPN Gameday Preview
ESPN’s “Gameday” College Football Preview show aired Saturday. If you didn’t see it, then you didn’t miss too much as it was about what you would expect. A few quick notes: (1) The “tease” at the beginning of the show – that has taken the form of music video in recent years – was set […]
Mr. Smith: “Pack to be Darkhorse”
About a month ago, I got an email from a professional colleague who was forwarding an email from one of his friends who is originally from Texas – also known as football country. Let’s call the author of the original email, “Mr. Smith”. Mr. Smith currently lives in Big 10 country in the Midwest. Each […]
State Strongly Represented in Harris Poll
As if Buddy Green wasn’t enough throwback for one morning…Steve Czaban also made an off-handed reference to former NC State football coach Dick Sheridan when he was criticizing the new Harris Interactive BCS college football poll. I don’t know how much that you know about the Harris Poll, but basically, “it will rank the top […]
More Hotseat Ridiculousness; The “Grumble Test”
This is becoming so comical that my tears from laughter are now turning into tears of pity. It has to be a joke…I just can’t figure out where it started. Do me a favor and take a look back at this entry and the links that comprise it. What you’ll find is some background surrounding […]
Hotseat Talk that is FINALLY accurate
On July 22nd, Tony Barnhart of the Atlanta Journal Constitution decided to throw some words down regarding “ACC Coaches on the Hotseat” to help fill some space in an article that he wrote. The RedandWhitefromState did a good job of calling out Barnhart for the ridiculousness of some of his ‘work’. Today, Fansblog.com logged a […]
Wolfpack Dominates Comeback List
I’ve got tons of old entries that I began during the past 9 months but never posted. As we work our way up to the start of football season, I will work to just “dump” them onto the site for future use. We will start with this article from the Las Vegas Sun that took […]
