It’s getting closer. I’m honestly not sure what to expect this year. The talent is there, but we’ll have to wait and see how it all comes together. But two Pack players are getting some big time ink. One of whom hasn’t even suited up yet. Ranking the top 100 (and one) college basketball players […]
Pack Heads to ‘Ville…Upset Special?
Hello again my Wolven friends. I’ve been away, but now I’m back (everyone groans). In all seriousness, my apologies for being absent since baseball ended. Life has a way of inserting itself into….well, life. I’m kinda doing this on short notice today because our good friend, BJD95 is on loan to the gods of Best […]
Pack Goes to The Gates For a 12:00 Post
Ahhh…a pic so very relevant this week, too. I’ve not set one single foot on the campus of the University of Louisville. Nor, have I ventured inside the house that really sh#tty, pepperoni, mushrooms and onions built. I have, however, spent some time under the Twin Spires, a hired hand in fact. I know pizza […]
WTH Does Clemson Have To Do With…
Unless you spent your honeymoon, there, over the gala surrounding New Years of ’81/’82, it means absolutely nothing. My new bride ( as if there was an old one ) and I, spent January 1st recouping from Prosperos Ano, at a quasi – gringo joint called “Senor Frogs” for a full day of American Football. […]
Wolfpack’s 10-3 victory over Notre Dame – a look back
H/T to Ethan Hyman (N&O) On Saturday, NC State was going to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Carter-Finley Stadium. The athletic department had no doubt spent countless time, effort, and a decent amount of money to make sure that the event was done right. And what happens? Hurricane Matthew drops over 6 inches of rain […]
The Irish-Catholics Prepare…But wait…
24:37-42 37 For just as the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day in which Noah entered into the ark, 39 And they did not know […]
Here comes Dennis Smith Jr.
h/t for picture from NC State basketball Even though that this is a few days old, we wanted to make sure that everyone saw this really good profile of incoming freshman basketball point guard Dennis Smith Jr. Joe Giglio of the News and Observer. In the article, Smith says: “I want to come in and […]
Wake Forest Comes to Play…Rack ‘Em
Eight. Keep that number on file. It doesn’t refer to Yogi, Cal, or anyone on the gridiron as Wake Forest comes to C-F on Saturday. I’ll not say anymore, just put it in your wallet. State opens its ACC schedule coming off a bye week against an improved 4-0 Deacon squad. That week’s worth of […]
ECU
Every picture tells a story. More? Ok. I like the Pirates Down East. Yep, sure do. I do not share a Wolven disgust for where those Purple and Gold peeps mark their scent trails. I pull for ’em every chance affordable…football, baseball, pig pickin’, oyster shuckin’, striper catchin’, COWGIRL boot wearin…name it. Back in the […]
Gameday is here!!! Football is back
Tonight kicks off the beginning of the 2016 football season. The Pack hosts William and Mary at Carter-Finley Stadium tonight at 7:30 PM. The Tribe will not be a pushover as they are ranked in the top 10 of the preseason FCS poll. A few questions that hopefully will be answered starting tonight: 1. Who […]
