Recently the author group here at SFN were having a discussion that veered off into who had the worst sports experience during their time as a student at NC State. Reminded me of the comparing scars scene in Jaws. Several of the SFN brain trust made valid points as to why they had it the […]

Oh look, Technician suddenly has time to write articles! [Updated 6:46pm]
Oh look, Technician suddenly has time to write articles!…and, they are just my ‘favorite’ kind of articles where some douchebag who doesn’t know jack shit about NC State history sits on a throne and ordains that they are better fans than everyone else!!! (GREAT MOVE, TECHNICIAN!!! Just what you need to be doing right now […]
One Week Left
We have one week (and a couple of days) until the end of the regular season. I would have waited until Monday for the last regular-season update, but I didn’t want to put this up on the same day as jigawatt’s game preview. After last night, I don’t have much energy for lengthy intros. So […]
Why do we bother caring?
After all of the calls for ‘illegal breathing’against anyone in red & whate that dared played defense near James Michael McAdoo tonight…the video below shows…of course, no foul on McAdoo and out of bounds off State. Without the bad call, there is probably no way that Carolina wins with State up two with 35 seconds […]
Parting Thoughts on the Syracuse “Win”
It still hurts. I’m still mad. Am I an NC State Homer? Yes, and unabashedly so. Did the overall better team win on Saturday? Yes. Did the better team on Saturday win? Emphatically, no. NC State came with a recipe to win that game and for all accounts, we should have won that game. Would’ve, […]
Sunday’s salt in the wound – NC State, Phil Ford article in N&O
I know that the timing of News & Observer’s string of articles around the 40th anniversary of NC State’s 1974 National Championship Basketball this morning was pre-determined…nonetheless, this one focusing on the shift of power really stung. Despite the torture it created for me this morning it is worth reading; particularly for our younger audience. […]
Snowy ACC Update
Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night can stop our weekly ACC updates. I hope that everyone stuck in what passes for a blizzard in the southeast is most of all warm and safe…followed closely by continuing cable/satellite and internet access. Just remember that you can’t fix stupid because I’m sure […]
ACC Mid-Season Review
Now that we’ve reached the half-way point in the conference schedule, you would think that we could divide the conference into the good, the bad, and the forgettable. But somehow over the last two weeks, various teams have managed to change directions and are blurring the cross over points between the expected groups. For starters, […]
One Month In…
This update might get lost in the post-game threads, but let’s look at where the ACC stands after the first month of the conference schedule. We’ll start with the top 1/3 of the conference and the teams that are playing for seeding in the NCAAT tournament. Nothing earth-shattering going on here, but FSU is beginning […]
Mess in the Middle
In the latest update on the ACC, we’ll highlight what’s going on in the middle of the conference…otherwise known as the “mess in the middle”. Depending on the author, a picture is not always worth a 1000 words…but we’ll use one for the summary of both the middle of the ACC and where they are […]
