Remember last summer when Stewart Mandel of Sports Illustrated ranked the worst college football coaches in the country and put our lovable Chuck Amato at #1? Well, times have changed and so have Mandel’s rankings. Amato is officially off the Mandel Hot Seat and he was replaced by none other than arch-rival John Bunting. I…

So I’m watching the Virginia Tech – Boston College game tonight, amazed at just how much the Hokies were screwing up. They brought to mind that Dave Chapell skit – Man, the Hokies are f****ing up! But my thoughts on that topic were completely diverted by a second-half piece of reporting by sideline cupcake Erin…

There are really only two games of much note this weekend – Virginia Tech at Boston College tonight and Wake Forest visiting NC State on Saturday. Both games could be critical in deciding who will play in the ACC Championship at the end of the year. How weird is it that I’m writing that and…

I haven’t done one of these things for two weeks now (damn job!), so I’ve got so many thoughts that I just can’t write them all. I’m no Bill Simmons; I can’t crank out 10,000 word entries. Hell, I think I could write 5,000 on NC State alone, but I’ll go ahead and see if…

Now, it may sound a bit weird or lame to do a poker tournament through email, but I’m telling you, it’s fun. It’s also very competitive. Quite a few pros play. In the…

Caulton Tudor has a very good, interesting article up today lambasting Duke’s football program. Tudor says that it’s time to end the charade and that Duke should just drop to 1-AA. If you watched Duke’s thrilling 37-0 loss to Virginia on Saturday, you’d understand why Tudor wrote this. Well actually, Duke’s pretty much been at…

The N&O wrote a piece today about something I’ve been meaning to write about – Steve Logan’s radio gig on 620 The Bull. Logan first started showing up on the radio as a frequent guest of Adam Gold (and others, I’m sure) and very quickly became one of my favorites. When I heard that he…

I’ve heard a lot of morons rant about their teams. You know the guys, they care waaay too much and they know way more than the coaches. They’re funny and scary at the same time. Well, one of those guys is a big Michigan State fan and somehow he got a radio show. You need…
