Sidney Lowe continued his mastery of “Basketball Grobe” tonight as the NC State Wolfpack won for the third time in the last four games. The Wolfpack is now 15-7 with an ACC record that now stands at .500 at 4-4. NC State never trailed in route to our second consecutive win over a team ahead […]

Sid Takes on “Basketball Grobe” Tonight (VT Thread)
There’s an early (7:00) tip tonight, as the Pack takes on the Castrated Turkeys on ESPNU.

Good Luck, Clemson
The Clemson Tigers take the field tonight in the Chick-Fil-A bowl in what I think will be the ACC’s ‘defining’ bowl game of 2007.

Here’s my breakdown: – Engin Atsur – Obvious, with clutch 3s, hustle plays, and steady leadership. – Ben McCauley – Pretty much carried the offense in the early going, made some tough rebounds, and put the dagger in […]

CFball Announcers Beware the Vick Network
It was a bad weekend to be a college football-related personality on ESPN, ‘The Vick Network”. Generally unpopular analyst, Trev Alberts, was fired on Sunday when he failed to show up for work. This article does a good job explaining the situation. Alberts is/was a highly intelligent analyst whose delivery style generally rubbed the audience […]

On a bathroom wall at The Caterie – a great little bar in Baton Rouge, Louisiana – these oddly poetic words were once written: “all I want out of life is a fourteen year old woman who knows how to roll a joint.” “In a Q & A with the Richmond Times-Dispatch earlier in his […]
