# | From Justin Fuente to the Water Boys, Tech's Staff Takes Aim at Improving Ball Security Remind me, besides Moss, what other LB attrition have we had?
I really don't think we need to keep going down this sub-thread, which was initiated by a textbook example of "what not to post on TKP when asked to be mindful that this is a hot-button topic."

# | Blakeway Gigapixel Panorama of the Battle of Bristol is out I am super pixelated, same as at the OSU game, but overall this is still pretty cool.
I know, right? It's almost like when people say Moe's is better than Chipotle. Unreal.
Okay, Ron Swanson.
It's a little better now, only about 3 months or so.
Just read the entire thread. I can't believe some of y'all. Don't like mayo, don't like ranch, don't like eggs!! What has happened.
Sadly, can't sell any merchandise with coach or player likeness.
If it we truly an offseason E$PN list, it'd have a hackneyed pairing of each salad type with coaches for each conference.

# | From Justin Fuente to the Water Boys, Tech's Staff Takes Aim at Improving Ball Security I think what happens with some guys is they get caught up in paying time
I am not one who usually will point out typo's, but this one has some egregious implications!
I am also thinking that it may have been a good thing that the 'ol glove-on-a-stick hurt a little bit. Make the guys used to bracing and squeezing that pigskin at contact.
Bud seems to been as perturbed by the single play breakdowns as the rest of us based on his more in-depth than usual breakdown of several scoring plays. You can tell it's been eating him up. I was also a little glad to see Bud speak a little more directly about players transferring because of PT, but do you think the coaches recruiting pitch might have something to do with the player's expectation or is it just the mental transition for the players going from BMOC at high school to grunt at the college level?
Some people did a great job discussing the topic without talking about the premise. Why do you feel the need to warn about political nature? Can you seriously not discuss a good host site for a championship game without getting into politics? It's just a little self control man, it's so easy. You're sitting here attacking people for not being able to avoid talking politics when you yourself can't even stay on topic. Do you not see the issue here?
We're all adults, we don't need someone telling us when a topic can be a hot button issue. It's quite obvious that it is, but some of us are trying (and doing a great job avoiding it). You're not.
Thank you for demonstrating my point clearly.
Some don't agree with the premise of the NCAA's action, the premise the whole topic starts with in the very first sentence of the OP. They are told, essentially, choke on this bit of politics, and instead discuss something else.
Then, when my warning about the political nature of the topic is born out with many comments in support of either side of the premise, I am accused of being an "offender" of community rules and told I probably don't belong on the website.
This is exactly why topics like this are generally frowned upon and removed. The sense of community disappears when you start pointing at others and saying they aren't acceptable company to keep.
Richmond people, there used to be a place that made a salad with apple in it with this great dressing, used to bring food to VCU hospital all the time. Anyone?
Couldn't agree more.. no doubt Cobb is the best salad.. BACON AND EGGS AND AVOCADO!!! Really can't go wrong!

# | From Justin Fuente to the Water Boys, Tech's Staff Takes Aim at Improving Ball Security Beat me by a minute. I also think it's unfair to criticize a player after a penalty that is just now being called this season.
The NCAA and soon the ACC moving all championship level competition out of NC to me is huge new information.
No love for the Greek salad anyone? Cucumber, tomato, bell pepper, onion, kalamata olives and a whole mess of feta... heaven.
That is the problem with conference championship games in general. It's not fair to expect your fans to travel to that game and a bowl game within a month of each other.

# | From Justin Fuente to the Water Boys, Tech's Staff Takes Aim at Improving Ball Security If you watch the video, Vice channels his inner J-Law to describe one of Wyatt's penalties, and follows that up with the comment about running him for one of them.
Besides being flagged for the same penalty twice in a game, what other history does Teller have of making the same mistakes over again?
It's unfair to assume Teller's issue is flat out stubbornness. If his technique is off, then the coaches need to fix that during practice. And given all of Tech's fumbles, I have doubts about the attention to detail happening throughout the week. Football plays occur at bang-bang speed, it's all reflex and instinct, not conscious decision making.
Vice's comment about Wyatt being "day-to-day" is the most forthcoming assessment as to why he's not starting. And it's absolutely Fuente's prerogative to demote him if he's not honed in on practice each day. However, great leaders find a way to motivate those they are in charge of.
If someone can't overcome a need to "assert dominance" to talk about where they want to see the ACC Championship then I'm not sure they belong on this website anyway. It's not that hard to do, yet you have exacerbated the situation by not actually discussing what the topic was intended to discuss. You're one of the worst offenders here by your own standards. There's no reason we can't be mature Hokie fans and talk about host sites.
I wonder how the ACC would feel about moving soccer championships to DC United's new soccer specific stadium. Not to take anything away from the 757, but DCU's new stadium seems ideal when and if it ever gets built haha.
