1. I did not threaten to shut down TKP. I was being extremely transparent about its future. This is what I wrote.

After this year, if there resources aren't available for me to decouple myself from TKP's day-to-day there will be some major changes which will range from TKP closing up shop, to becoming a pay website, or to scaling back content.

That's the truth. TKP occupies way too much of my time. I am burned out. Almost every weekday I get up around 6:00 AM, do 2-3 hours of TKP work, then go to work. When I get home from work I do 2-3 hours more of TKP work. I am done doing that after this season. Instead, I would like to hire someone full-time to provide folks with excellent coverage of Virginia Tech athletics. If you enjoy TKP, don't want it to change, and are financially able to support, then that's who The Key Players Club is for.

Then you go on another thread and comment on how terrible the discussion is on the site.

No. I said it was ridiculous to get salty because an objective reporter didn't say nice things about Virginia Tech. Because it is. TKP doesn't publish Q&A's to have sunshine blown up its ass. It's done to provide an outside perspective. Before the UNC game, Andrew Carter's outside perspective on the Hokies was "meh". Then Tech went out and whooped UNC's ass and earned a lot of respect outside of Blacksburg. I also wrote, "What's worse is the lack of intelligent discourse is trending on TKP, and that makes me sad." This is true. And it does make me sad because I don't want this place to go to shit because I care about it too much.

3. Your opinion was fine and I appreciate it. However, you and The Conductor are banned. I'm too tired to figure out if it's the same person behind both accounts, but the coordinated down/up voting and sheep trolling is what did the accounts in.

I have that flag. It's nice. It always flys too. But just about everyone has it. I wanted something unique. Who only flys one flag? We have the American and VA state up as well.

I heard something recently on a podcast from an ex Miami player talking about how it was common for kids to troll teams to just to pad their offer lists.

Not saying this is the case since I'm pretty sure he has a VT offer. But ever since I heard that, it makes me wonder kids motives.

True this ^^^^^^^^

Did anyone mention The Key Players Club.....

If you enjoy the easy to use interface and the enlightening and occasionally entertaining content, then I hope everyone chooses to join the Club and support this endeavor. It's really worth it.

And after this short commercial break, we now return to our regularly scheduled program....

Than You.

I've only half-watched any of the Friday night games this season, but I'm pretty sure I've heard him mention Vince Young and Colt McCoy every single time.

Guy in his banner pic and Instagram is current OSU commit and 5* CB Shaun Wade. Dare to dream?

I don't think people really care what she says but with all the positive "hype", its a downer to hear her ignorant diatribe...

I mean if this was offensively challenged teams of the past I get it, but how does anyone with any sense of intelligence accept that UT was a better team that night? I mean I am VT guy to the T but how can you remotely say the better team won? Take away one penalty on Teller and maybe only one fumble and VT wins by a landslide

You may be on to something, those splits are awfully tight. And it's noticeable on inside runs, the RB often plows right into the back of an O-lineman. There's not a lot of room in there. So what your saying then is the edge is easier/quicker to get to if the D-line is in tighter?? Very intriguing......

It could of been possible (to levels during that time) to leverage the success into more Hokie Club members, more marketing and sponsorships to do something to make the program have stronger footing.

In The Year 2000, VT was not in the ACC.

Improvements in the non revs was impossible when we were writing the BE a $3m check every year instead of collecting conference revenue.

Does anyone besides me REALLY wanna kick Duke's ass this season, all the way back to oblivion and irrelevance?

It is my personal vote that this thread be put down in as humane a way as possible a fiery inferno of glory.

But seriously guys, we are better than this. I dislike HD as much as the next bloke, but I'm not going to put her down personally or get nasty. Seems as if this has gotten a little out of hand IMHO (not your fault Alum07).
