# | Excellent SBNation article on Fuente and his anticipated impact on VT's offense It's absolutely no lie that Rogers>Rudy. It's not even close. Not even fair.
I agree, when "he was on", he lit up the court usually when no one else was. He was a key player, but hopefully Hill canpick up the loss. He seemed to be a key component,when called on.
Driving in with a crew of 8 from a couple hours away.
Bourbon (probably Buffalo Trace as it is inexpensive and good quality) and wings for fuel.
Got a nice big chunk on my desk that I use for a paperweight. Picked it up at Checkpoint Alpha in 1990 while visiting my brother (USAF).
Wow, you call that our of his mouth anytime Great music. Really. Now that's funny. Don't insult Scott.
Golf is fun to watch right now. I hope some of the big young names cluster up at the top of the leaderboard for a fun weekend
Done lottery 3 times over 10 years got nothing. Maybe this year is my year. My neighbor a retired FBI agent in charge goes every year to the full week long event. Not sure who he knows but he loves it.
For those of you who don't know, on Monday the lottery will open up for practice rounds + a small amount of tournament tix for next year. All through the masters website.
I've signed up every year since 18 (32 now) and won practice round tix 2x, so cross your fingers and toes. Also, only 1 entry per address so get your friends to sign up on your behalf!
100% true TV does it NO justice. The elevation changes are just ridiculous, you won't see a single weed and green is all I have to say. And of course, the pimento cheese sandwiches are amazing!
Happy masters week!

# | To beat a dead horse: MSU thinks that a constant running back rotation isn't good Teams with a great rb don't rotate and put up good numbers.
Teams with 2 great rbs rotate and achieve excellent numbers.
Teams with average rbs rotate and put up average numbers.
Teams with average rbs that don't rotate put up average numbers or less.
I feel like we're struggling to accept the truth that we would have been option 4. If the offensive staff should be faulted, it was not trusting McMillian a little sooner, but they aren't the first coaches to be hesitant with green talent.
Watching the video makes you feel bad for the guy. http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:15154595
"That was a disaster," Els said then. "Anybody who has ever seen the yips, obviously that was the perfect yip stroke you've ever seen I your life. It is what it is. The game of golf you've got to do some silly things when you play long enough. ... Hopefully I won't have too many of those again, because you can't play golf like that."
Edit: That was actually an old quote. Apparently he has a history of the yips. http://espn.go.com/golf/masters16/story/_/id/15155410/ernie-els-7-putts-...
Ouch.
I got Day, Scott, Matsuyama, Kuchar, Schwartzel, Walker and Haas in my pool. We get points for 1st-6th finish, low daily score, miss cut (-) and make cut. There are four tiers of players, so you get to choose but you have to make some tough choices (Scott was Tier 2, which was a no-brainer).
great way to follow the tourney. $20 entry, 1st place is over $500.
He's a Master of The Cones of Dunshire.
It's going to be excited to see what Clarke becomes next year. I'm guessing he becomes the starting 4 once Leday graduates. They are basically the same height (if Clarke is 1" shorter, he jumps a helluva lot better), both gritty post defenders. Clarke has more slash from the perimeter whereas Leday has that set shot. Athletically, Clarke and LeDay are very dissimilar, but their games are odd parallels.
1 each. Never gotten tickets on my own. Practice round for Mickelson's first win in 2004. First time seeing Tiger he about holed 13 on second shot. Was there for first round 2 years ago.
Scratch that! he came back. Last I saw he was 2 over. Come on Phil!!

# | Jalen Hudson Leaving the Hokies After Two Seasons with Buzz Williams Yeah Delaney only got one offer from the NBA before last season, a season in which he was coming off being the MVP of the top European League. Houston offered him a 3 yr, $900,000.00 deal. Lokomotiv in Russia offered him essentially $6M for the first year. Not sure what he is making this season as he signed back on with them again but I imagine its something similar. Even his first season though, he made $130,000.00 playing in France.
You might as well forget about ole lefty...he's not looking so hot....
Adam Scott, actor, locks up the Masters.
I'm considering driving up from SC. This spring game has a lot of obvious intrigue.

# | To beat a dead horse: MSU thinks that a constant running back rotation isn't good Yeah It definitely does, itd be a lot of work going through and pulling out rushes only by Running Backs, i just dont know the rosters well enough to do it quickly, obviously, I know the starting QBs for the most part but not sure about the wildcat quarterbacks for other teams.

# | Jalen Hudson Leaving the Hokies After Two Seasons with Buzz Williams I forgot about little Hank Thorns, I really liked that guy.
I believe it was you who said Delaney was making millions of euros a year playing in Europe and had turned down a few smaller offers to come to the NBA. That was a real shock to me, just realizing some of these european guys are making really, really great money.
Im an Adam Scott fan, but right now Speith has to everyones favorite to win it, especially with his opening round.
I heard the same thing. From what I've heard we'll soon find out.
