Guess they didn't meet the high academic standards of the BIG 12. I mean, they are no WVU, amirite
Oh, greens too. THEY HAVE REALLY GOOD DOUBLE FRIED FRRNCH FRIES. Best in the burg
Get the Tugboat. Also add Sub Station II. Legendary subs. Dirt cheap.
Wait. What? I was going to answer 117 S. Main. Damn, I'm old.
For a second I thought this was about linebacker recruiting. Sorry.

# | Athlon Sports: Twitter Accounts Every College Football Fan Should Follow (2016 Edition) In my opinion the @HokiesFB account is tolerable. But whoever is tweeting from the @VT_Football account needs to be fired 12 months ago. They're embarrassing our football program and our school.
Short-term replace private lots in the downtown core with metered lots
Wooh, what happened to private property? Private parking is private for a reason. $$$$$$$$$$$$$. And $.
He looks like an ANIMAL.
You think Ped traffic downtown is minimal? I never got that feeling but I've been gone for a while.
There aren't many sites or opportunities for higher density residential that close to downtown, but when there is, it should be encouraged. Developers need certain ratios: enough land to get their density, space for parking, etc (no, structured parking won't work for high density residential in a market like BBG). That land is available on the periphery of town, not near the core. Ther have been a number of boutique MF in the core the last decade, and those should be encouraged.
I noticed no one has said sycamore deli anywhere. Don't know what the reception is amongst other Hokies but I love that sandwich shop. Cool location too in a basement area in the building in front of rivermill.

# | Athlon Sports: Twitter Accounts Every College Football Fan Should Follow (2016 Edition) Which "official" account? They recently got HokiesFB verified as well so we now have TWO "official" accounts to follow. The dumbest. HokiesFB used to just be for "recruiting" but that ain't the truth.
I unfollowed both during the offseason. I'll probably get back to it this weekend.

I was not. thought about taking it. and I need to update my profile haha. I graduated in May and just started my masters
Might be out dated, you know, with a closure and everything.
We had a thread about Blacksburg restaurants. Don't know know if we should get w new one or bump that one?

Tigers
yeah, nice try..you're not going to get points for this unless you specify Auburn Tigers or Clemson Tigers. Just sayin'
but them not joining a P5 might just be the excuse we need to shred the contract we have with them and halt the series. The TV deal is going to require the ACC to restructure their schedule and scheduling rules and we might be able to boot ECU to the curb if they're not a P5 team. I would rather not play ECU at all than play them as a member of the BigXX
My wife n I live in Christiansburg. We would love to go eat in Blacksburg more often as the restaurant choices in christiansburg aren't as good overall. The parking situation in downtown deters us big time. The downtown 16 blocks in blacksburg needs ped traffic to survive.
Student housing near downtown n more parking is essential to downtown viability. And, the city council needs to relax it's fix on parking meters, it's crazy.
