Hour #1

11:10 am

It's 11 a.m. and I have a beer. Twenty beers on tap, and the first one of the day is Bud Light. Woo. (Just so you know, yes, I am using a laptop in a sports bar. I know, I know. Sorry.). The only other guy in the bar is an Alabama fan, which goes to show how nobody around these parts has gone to college or cares about sports. Not for me, no sir. Appalachian State is beating the crap out of Michigan. I never liked Michigan - not for any good reason, there are some teams I just don't like. In that same vein, there are some teams I like for reason, like the Denver Broncos and Bobby Knight-coached basketball teams.

I am so happy right now, I'm watching ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU on giant big screens with a beer. It's the little things.

VaTech is NOT honoring the memories of those who were killed in the worst shooting in American history. Go Pirates!

As much as I want Tennessee to whomp Cal because I hate this state, I don't think they have the offensive power. Cal returns all of its offense, UT lost its top 3 receivers. Ainge is lukewarm at his best, the players around him make him any good.

WE WILL PREVAIL. WE ARE VIRGINIA TECH.
