No complaint on the time, but of course on the one game day that I have to work this season, it's on a channel I don't get on the TV there.

Yeah, there's streaming options, but I try to minimize that at work...

Time is odd, because it's a Big Ten game on the U at noon, either Iowa at Purdue or Minnesota at Maryland, and those are notorious for finishing on time or early.

But the ACC has taken over the late afternoon window across all four of the primary mouse channels: http://www.theacc.com/news/acc-announces-game-times-networks-for-week-7-...

Same - well... before I get a KeySmart....

Hmmm, I should probably swing by Lowes and pick up 20 or so blank keys to put on a ring for the UNC game this weekend.

Its almost as if by having an offense that can score points, we're getting more favorable time slots due to network execs thinking people would actually want to watch us

This.... so, so, so much this. Blows my mind that the jingling of keys became something people did instead of yelling on 3rd down as opposed to being on top of the yelling.

Yeah, I know, but there you have it. I'd rather hear full throated screaming than the muted jingling sound of keys when we're up against it. I do get the "key play" idea, but unless you're also screaming loudly while jingling those keys, I just feel like you leave something on the table. Please understand that the key jingling came along many years after I formed my Hokie Habits, so I readily admit that it may just be a generational disconnect. For the record, though, I really did like the "stick it in" chant, and loved the addition of Enter Sandman, so I'm not completely old fashioned. And yes, I also understand the irony of loving TKP while meh-ing on the jingling deal. And yes, I have observed quite a few fans jingling the keys while taking selfies, yakking with seatmates, and whatever, as if jingling the keys makes the kind of noise the Hokies deserve on third down defense, so maybe that is what started me down that road, but I know I speak only for myself, and my whistle, on this matter. Now, if you've already lost your voice from cheering and the keys is all ya got left, I approve, but I'd rather everybody learn to whistle loudly instead. Leg for asking, though, thanks.

Will be exciting to see how dramatically his athleticism improves. He was plenty good on a foot and a half.

My guess he'll need a lot of PT etc. to re-learn how to sprint and explode off the floor. That's a lot of years of muscle memory to re-train.

Yeah Radio is still around at the school everyday, it's a really nice thing how much they take care of him. I do think he will be done soon though, he is getting quite old. I did not enjoy our yearly games against Dorman, Byrnes, and/or Gaffney. We were good, but we were a tier below overall and they rarely went well haha.

The offer list says 5*, yet is listed as 3* on Rivals. Saw that with numerous members of our 2016 class who had 4* offer list but were at 3* leading to fan consternation of the quality of the class.

Yeah, last week was rough, there is still about 8" of standing water in some areas of Corolla. Beach road in Duck, in some places had 5 feet of water on it. Ground is super saturated already, with more rain and hurricane force winds, we're going to have a lot of downed trees I'm afraid, makes me nervous with the 5 pines I have in my yard.
