In risking the chance to derail my satire as critique of the endless stupidity found in west Raleigh I’m not sure if I can take your bet.
Ok I’m in. I will even give you a chance to adjust the record since you don’t have a clue of how many conference games the Pack will play. Give me a corrected guess and I will gladly put $50 if it somewhat correlates to the original proclamation.
Part of the point in calling for 5-11 was to outline the general aparty toward all things State. Do it right, field winners and people notice. Play the endless circle jerk known as the athletic department at State and even graduates of the school don’t know(and mainly don’t care) how much you play.
I also want something in return. I don’t want your $$. Really don’t need it. If I win you have to proclaim that your knowledge on NCSU sports is non existent. That you will stop making bombastic statements just to troll people. You will not post on anything sports related unless it’s insightful and has some validity. None of these comments where you let us know what you are about to drink or eat for dinner. Ok, no posting for two weeks. That’s the only way to be sure there are no grey areas. The last two sentences is the agreement. This will be acknowledged by you by starting a thread that acknowledges the above. This will begin just after the record surpasses what you predicted. The thread will state “I know nothing and most people don’t care what I do”.
1) My knowledge of NC State is rather non existent. I know they field a bunch of losers, endlessly harass the students, the alumni and the limited fan base. I know they like to be cheap. Cheap in essence is not bad but State’s efforts at cheap almost always equate to bad results.
2) I love trolling people. There is a beauty to the reaction that is better than the best of times at the Carolina Inn with blondes from Myers Park who’ve got daddy’s money to spend and all weekend to do it(plural sense applied). And I’m not speaking to the point of angering people but rather getting their thoughts, their views, their beliefs while foregoing the contemporary retort of “I’m offended”.
By gosh I’ve been booted off more message boards for trolling than you’ve got hairs on your head. In fact I’ve been tossed off Pack Pride so long (around 14 years by my count) and I burned them so deep that my old account is still banned which probably has more to do with their lazy/forgetfulness than my narcissism.
3) I’m all about some rational empirical data and discussion but at some point it becomes clear that people in high (and low) places have no damn idea what they are doing.
Case in point, we all recognize how brilliant Herb Sendek was as 1) a dresser, 2) a promoter of hair gel, 3) finding odd names in the Moore County phone directory and 4) a coach.
All that said, when he started 6 players on the floor AFTER A DAMN TIME OUT there is no need for “insight and validity”. It was damn stupid, period.
4) I believe I have excellent eating and drinking habits.
I eat what I like but am typically spartan in my approach to daily consumption. Lots of coffee, a dip of tobacco (bachelors delight) from time to time, high protein and lots and lots of fiber. I do enjoy cooking, simple basic culinary models with bursts of complexity from time to time. I enjoy a good restaurant, price is rarely an object so long as the flavor and atmosphere are in play. I HATE CHAIN RESTURANTS outside of unabashed Christian businesses who are hypocritical cheapskates in all but name.
Alcohol has its place which is generally in my right hand.
Love dark chocolate, do not like (Un)Sanitary Fish Market down near Morehead City. That was(is) one overrated dump.
5) I already know that I don’t know very much thus underscoring my Socratic method. I also know that most if not all people could care less what I think, what I eat, how many bowel movements I have per day(4) or that I used to set up at the old Greenburg and Friedman real estate offices off Franklin Street in chapel hill on game day and charge people to park. It was a Saturday, there was no business hours so I figured the owners wouldn’t mind while I 1) made some easy cash, 2) stuck to the heals.
The delightful shock on their faces as they told me they had parked there free for years.
If you win I will start a thread that says you are all knowing and I paid you $50 bucks for your advanced knowledge.
Are you in?
Well they play 18 games since I finally gave a damn to check so in pure NC State fashion I’ll stick with 5-11.
And I only do handshake deals so I ain’t starting no new damnn thread about yes to this and no to that.
McCallum
Hate Gott?
Nope.
His biggest issue is that his teams are not fundamentally sound. They play horrible defense and haven’t come close to playing defense since Richard Howell walked out the door.
In fact he couldnt coach Woody Durham to ask for the Hold’em Heal meal deal at Wendy’s.
McCallum
A few minutes popping off about the the charging at wind mills Wolfpack does not qualify as much of a “sacrifice of time, pleasures and comforts”*.
Spending time rolling up and down the road is where the franks and beans meet the road, ain’t happening.

*nods to the Builders of Men
Boston College will clean their clocks.
Of course since you typed what you typed the thomas dude probably thinks Yow will quit on Monday.
Same pattern here as at Maryland.
McCallum

What is your point?The problem I have is finding a refreshing low far cigarette. I paid my dues in Wake County, I can do as I please.
McCallum
astute, yes
loyal, nopeIt was just a school I attended, endured and from which I gained degrees.
I could give a tinkers damn what Yow does come Monday. Her pattern is well established now, bad hires for major revenue sports, good hires for non revenue sports.
Troll, back away from the edge.
McCallum
Almost is a good term to put on it.
It allows the mystic and supernatural to enter into the discussion. The stars must align perfectly for NCSU Almost to win; bad coaching hires, abusing the fan base with insane bullshi.t rules, etc all mean little to nothing. In fact those concrete items have about as much impact on the situation as a gnat flying into Reverund Barbers a.ss, it must be the mysterious logic of a divinely inspired Curry Math of sorts.
Good planning, smart hiring, hard work, etc doesn’t mean doodly squat.
McCallum
I see the glistening dew of hope again.
“if we almost beat x and x beat y by a-b then we would have been that close to z who plays x for the championship”
State is the same bunch they’ve always been. Unless they can move beyond standard deviation for more than 4-5 seasons in a row nothing will change.
As for me, I think I’ll have a Fresca.
McCallum
They don’t move their feet on defense, they surrender they base line like a cheap whore on Saturday night, and they have no team identity or idea on how to develop an identity.
They can’t box out, they don’t understand after shot ball trajectory and they probably sniff glue.
State will suck and they ain’t getting any of my precious time or well counted moolah.
McCallum
I feel pretty about myself after I wipe the floor with some 9-12 year olds in a game of chess.
Beware of that bitter taste in the kool-aid.
McCallum
The glistening dew of hope.
Trapped as I am here at Appalachian there is little for me to do other than hurl stones of reality and soak in all the damn 80s music a man can stand.
Flashdance theme once more Ringo.
