They have these at the PNC Arena in Raleigh. Those seals are pretty good, actually. Not only does the weight of the beer keep it pinned down pretty well, but is also held together by magnets.
Seriously, though... I need that chair
That's awesome until you accidentally set the cup down on something that isn't flat, breaking the seal and spilling your beer out the bottom of your cup. SUCH AS: the keys in your pocket, as you rest your beer on your leg.
4-Star LB Ellis Brooks from Richmond decommitted from Duke. Any chance VT is on his radar?
Wait, you married into a WVU family?
I believe we have a decent chance at Brooks, other major concern would be Mich.
Nope, didn't see either.
Maybe he is looking at Wilson's scholarship spot opening up.
For the record, as the person who posted the highly controversial Debbie Downer gif, I DO realize that.
I posted what I intended as a lighthearted way to express my disagreement with what I felt was an overly negative tone, and got royally blasted by the community for it, so I guess it came across as highly critical of the author's efforts. Gif commentary is a blunt instrument.
My differences in opinion with the article were minor relative to the overall sentiment. I think we're all in agreement that the climb is going to get steeper from here for VT basketball, and that we need to temper expectations, which I believe was the main point of the article. Sadly, the firestorm over this hijacked the thread commentary, which I regret.
I'll try and be more careful with my gif selection in the future. One man's "light hearted" is another man's "snarling dogbite" in gif commentary land.
Due to my scheduling I can only go to one game year on average so since I can't be at the stadium I can guess I will settle for this for my gameday enjoyment.
The Dutch are responsible for Orange carrots, so....
Mostly looking forward to this game because of a house-divided rivalry with the in-laws. Otherwise... meh
Hey, if you're still interested, welcome home.....
I've heard one 3rd hand #weaksauce he is interested in Mich
That sounds like the name of a bad punk rock band.
Ellis just de-committed from Duke!!!
Are you saying he received the gun for making a squat cobbler tape?
I pretty much agree with recruiting guys who like to work and
earn their position on the team.
At the same time, you can't argue with talent. Maybe looking for
a mixture of both attributes is the way to go.
I enjoyed this article. It's definitely the reality of the situation. One line stood out to me from the rest:
Texas A&M got to the Sweet 16 this season and saw two assistants get head coaching gigs.
From Chew's perspective, that right there is encouraging and inspiring to see for an aspiring head coach. If he stays in Blacksburg and if/when Buzzketball takes its first steps deep into the dance then the credit from the public's/media's eye will go solely to Buzz.
Chew's placing himself in a position with a program already established where he can showcase his ability to coach at a high level and receive credit for it. As much as Buzz would deflect the credit to his staff, Chew just probably felt he would get lost in the mix if he stuck around in Blacksburg any longer. In addition to previously said reasons, can't blame the guy. Gotta get yours.
A clothed model with a surfboard is USFW?? Geez, this was a step down from the Emma pole pic (& no obvious photo-shop for that matter). EDIT
The family tree has a branch!!! The cycle has been broken!
