VT had a camp today in Blacksburg. Have seen at least one offer given out. Will try and embed when not on iPad.
Yep. I just read "basic strategy" as somewhere between "I know the best general strategy" and "I know how the play Blackjack." Even the basic strategy is still probably your best bet on how to lose the least amount of money, I'd wager.
Could we avoid Thurs night drafts?

LeBron claims that his kids started getting offers when they were around 10, so I guess there isn't a rule on when you can start offering.
I watched the first episode only so far... it was like watching my childhood...clothes, cars, bikes, sister. I will watch the rest shortly.
seen a lot of supercuts since the season ended, but this one is pretty damn good
It's historically true because of the responsibilities of the position. Unless he's 260+, a 6'5" mike is getting blocked out of every play with simple leverage. And, barring some kind of herculean once in a lifetime talent, he won't have the change of direction needed to fill gaps and get to the ball carrier between the tackles.
If you've seen reporting that suggest Edmunds is being seriously evaluated as a Mike then I'd love to read it. If true, he's either got Urlacher talent or it's another example of just how lean the roster has become.
I have only binge-watched one series, Newsroom, and I loved it. Wish they had done more.

Heck, at the rate his stats are changing, he might already be 6'5"!
Offers to kids after their sophomore year of HS? Even I could have benefitted from that (soph was my best), but I guess if he stinks it up or breaks a leg in the next two years, the college can always retract the offer. Kinda nuts projecting recruits this far in advance - what rules are there on how early on teams can recruit players? Seems like there has to be something on the books, but then you hear about these disturbing stories of a college offering a 7th grader.
Umm hate to break it to you but according to recruits that exactly how they have gotten legitimate offers, over Twitter DM.
You can't reasonably believe an offer over twitter is legit.
It is a really rare combo. Every time I read about big Tim or see a video of him I immediately think of Vince Wilfork. I hope big Tim continues to work hard so he can reach his full potential. He seems like a guy who gets his teammates energized.
On a side note if you did not read the ESPN interview with Vince Wilfork about the body issue, I highly recommend it. I hate ESPN but it was a really interesting interview.
Stroman punt return TD. The moment Ford and MaCmillian become 1,000 yard players (especially with MaCMillian not going to be called upon a lot this year)
Truly incredible "stay up til 5am to finish it" good. Was gonna make a post about it but was glad to see someone else already did.
Still processing but damn, incredible show, great characters.

That's scary, having that monster coming into the game after your a little tired and he's fresh and motivated.
Sorry GT dive play
I agree, those white facemasks are so much fun!
You could mix it up with some Horse on a Treadmill.
I mentioned this on Billdozer's thread, but if they don't have a QB announced at the time of the video, a pan of the Stig with "QB Hokies" on the screen would be pretty sweet (appropriate for the season we play Bristol!)
"Miami wants to talk about it" is always fodder
If you could make a short edit to mayonnaise girl on the Adonis Alexander TD pass breakup at UVA, you could make the video uniquely TKP
I agree. I don't love it either, but would like us to "brand it". I'd go as far as making the yard numbers, names on jerseys, etc with it.
i don't love it, but let's own it. I hope they're updating Lane, too. I think we had at least 3 different fonts on display last I checked.
video board (recent Nike font which I loved and we should have focused on), padding behind endzones (random block letters), endzone paint (different random block letters), and i'm sure there were others around the interior walls...
that's pretty interesting. Which actor? If you don't mind saying.
I misread the headline as: "MASSIVE DEFENSIVE TACKLE TIM SETTLE SHOWS OFF HIS HEELS" As in high heels. I was really confused why everyone was excited until I figured out my mistake.

I think I may have finally found the phenomenon that briefly caught my attention, while watching the weather channel. All I remember is seeing a graphic of two levels of the atmosphere, one high, one low, and rounding the earth at different speeds. And when the "orbits" aligned briefly, it was trouble.
I believe this Madden-Julian Oscillation may be one of the two parts:
