Prior to the start of his sophomore season, the popular Ilian Evtimov encountered a horrible knee injury that sidelined him for the entire season. At the time of Evtimov’s injury, the world famous NCSEC (NC State Excuse Club) immediately went into high gear and before you knew it was proclaimed (I think by Coach Sendek?) […]
Philip Rivers
Brees’ Time in San Diego Ending?
The NFL off-season is heating up in San Diego as the Chargers have been working hard on their quarterback position with some moves that significantly impact Philip Rivers. Earlier in the week, the Chargers re-worked their deal with 3rd string QB, AJ Feeley who was acquired in a mid-season trade with Miami. More recently, Drew […]
NFL Viewing Alert – Rivers is Playing
Drew Brees injured his thumb, and is not expected to return. Philip Rivers will finish the game for the Chargers, now showing on CBS. I’m still rooting for my Broncos to pitch the shutout, though.
A Job Well Done
Other than the snarled traffic on Edwards Mill Road, it was a very good night at the RBC Center. It’s been a very long time since a Wolfpack revenue sports team earned a standing ovation from the home crowd – but that particular drought ended tonight. Herb Sendek’s cool, composed squad disposed of a solid […]
NoRedZone Fired After One Year
Former NC State Offensive Coordinator Noel Mazzone didn’t last long at Ole Miss. He was fired today after leading the Rebels “with one of the nation’s worst offenses.” Ole Miss must have really hated NoRedZone as he still has two guaranteed years on his three year contract that pays him about $230,000 annually. Ole Miss […]

Basketball: Let’s start on the hardwood since we’ve had plenty of time to discuss football. ===> See, that wasn’t so tough was it? It wasn’t difficult at all to schedule a decently-named team AND get a win. Who cares how poorly Notre […]
ESPN: Great Rivers Feature
About every Monday or so, a different member of the Pack Pride and Wolfpacker message board communities will have identified a new team to which they project Philip Rivers could be traded. Well, ESPN has provided an excellent piece on Philip that is a must read for Wolfpackers. (Maybe it will help you forget life […]
ESPN, The Vick Network
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 […]
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 […]
Optimism – Is Jay Davis “the Man”?
There is no secret to the primary key for NC State’s football success in 2005 – quarterback play. You name the publication, internet site, or general analyst and you will hear the same general comments almost verbatim: “Despite losing a lot in the secondary, the Wolfpack’s defense should be more than adequate based on the […]
