Moving the entrance of the baseball field how?
My immediate thought was that losing Denise makes the Hilltop doctor that much more important. The Alexandrians now rely on Hilltop even more for a necessary skill. That's another bargaining chip in Hilltop's favor, beyond food. How much does Alexandria have to offer, outside of Eugene maybe manufacturing bullets? Looks good for now with the raid on the Saviors, until they learn that they didn't actually finish the job.
I guess that they are going to have to poach the doctor from Hilltop. I mean, he has an ultrasound and everything.

I talked to some extremely reliable sources on this last night. The design was first presented by Kevin Jones, yes, that Kevin Jones. Moving the entrance will make it visible to everyone coming onto campus from that direction which will generate ~50million views a year for Union (not bad advertising for 350k a year). Great work from the Athletic Dept. to make these types of things possible and great thinking for moving the entrance of the field to generate more views for advertising.
c'mon now. How many Bama fans even know that Bama has a baseball team? Football is not only King in Alabama, it's Queen, Prince, Princess, Jester...the whole lot.
Thanks for finding that. The changes will be extensive but it will be a huge and necessary change. One of the most important changes is a clubhouse for the baseball players. That would be a huge help in recruiting.
Of course it has become an indicator of a major plot event. As for the idiocy stuff, I'm used to writers and journalists and film people (no offense intended to anyone in these professions) not knowing anything about which they write or perform.
We knew there was going to be problems with her insisting on going and then again when they split up to go down the road and down the RR tracks.
Then again the doc goes off by herself several times. When she goes off by herself we know it's not really going to be then, that's to obvious. My Spidey sense started tingling when she started in on her strong suit, psych training. And uh, yup.
Now, we don't have anything close to even a combat medic or ambulance driver.
Somebody is going to need to volunteer to do intensive training (someone should always be cross training).
Possible job opportunity coming up for our resident conscientious objector.
I believe the PAC12 has 6 losses.

# | Hokies Anxious, Excited For Spring Football Full of Questions As someone pointed out a week or so back (JUGS, maybe?) the only distinction is: if there's a football on the field, it counts as a practice. No football = just conditioning. So he can say "football things" because clearly they were doing footwork drills and such (DBs doing backpedaling and whatnot) and as long as no one is toting the rock, it's all just workouts so there is no problem.
I believe the NCAA allows limited contact between players and coaches in terms of studying playbooks. They don't get much of a chance to work on such things, but it's not completely forbidden. So "installing a new offense" is still in its infancy.
Exactly my thought.
That statement reeks of the inflated sense of self that you see around lots of college programs. Viewed from the outside, Buzz to Pitt seems like a ludicrous notion.

Did anyone else catch this
Just some things that we've done with the early installation and early morning workouts, we've done a couple little football things,
I thought they couldn't talk football things in the off season workouts? Or has all the 'Don't tweet recruits' driven me to a heightened state of paranoia
Sit wherever you want. Normally the NEZ is blocked off. Given that the game is at 2:30 the West Stands will have shade. I'll be tailgating in the Cassell lot with friends starting around 9am - we go crazy with this every year. I'll have my TKP shirt, feel free to stop by for some homebrew I'll have on tap.
32 day countdown until the Spring game!! Is anyone doing a spring game tailgate? How does seating work for spring game? This will be my first year up there for it.
Yeah that seems wildly unrealistic. For a man with good christian morals, who grew up in the midwest and seems to favor the country life.. moving to Shittsburgh, from a peaceful little town like Blacksburg, doesnt sound all that desirable to me.
Plus Buzz has been aiming for Y3 since he started this job. He mentioned in the last few weeks how he built this team to be at their peak competitiveness in 2016-2017. The weakness of our nonconference schedule was prominent in Y1 and Y2, but supposedly jumps big time next season (I cant find any seeming plausible sources).
Our lone senior will be missed most for his character and effort, not his stat line. The only thing keeping this team from being a real contender is the need for dominant paint play. If one of those true bigs (6'9"+), can shape up and become a real force down low, there is no reason why the 2016-2017 Hokies can't compete for their first ACC title.
maybe something like this but with hokiestone.
Fuente's spring practice hype gif game is strong.

I may be in the minority but I can overlook a few technical details in a show centered around dead people coming back to life and trying to eat the living.
I do agree that a few moments of attention to detail could easily make this "reality" seem more real and thus more believable. Unfortunately, they do not have enough time to show every little step of weapon maintenance. I only vaguely remember a scene or two of someone actually disassembling, cleaning, lubricating, and reassembling a firearm. I think that they showed Andrea do it at least once. I think it is safe to assume that they are doing this regularly so all of those automatic weapons are functioning properly. If we assume that, I do not think it is much of a stretch to think that someone could ransack local sporting goods stores for appropriate crossbow wax/lubricants (I obviously have no idea what it takes to maintain a crossbow). I mean, where else has Darryl been getting more bolts? I cannot imagine that they expect us to believe that he just retrieves every one that he uses.
I also think that they get a bit of tunnel vision and focus so much of their time and money on the zombie effects, that other aspects of the show can suffer.
However, what I have a hard time overlooking is the use of temporary stupidity to drive plot and the now clichd pattern of previously underdeveloped characters getting characterization just so they can kill someone off and have them not feel like a redshirt.
-There is no logical reason whatsoever that the one remain person with any medical training should be allowed outside the walls, especially while you are actively in conflict with another heavily armed, murderous group. Period. End.
-If they were going to take everything in the pharmacy, why in the hell did they need to take someone with them that knows what each pill does? (And how the hell did they fit an entire pharmacy into two backpacks? She knew where the place was. They have maps.
-If you have to babysit someone who is totally green to the world outside the wall, maybe you shouldn't just walk away when she says that she thinks it is a good idea to try to get a cooler out of a car with a zombie sitting next to it.
-Darryl knows that railroad tracks are a bad idea, but he just goes ahead and says, you guys are right, I changed my mind because nothing happened to Rosita on the way here.
Sorry for the rant. I just get so frustrated with this show when they have shown what they are capable of instead of defaulting to someone doing something stupid so bad shit can happen.
brb tweeting this at him.
Interesting, I heard it was the first time ever that a conference put 6 teams in the sweet sixteen. The Pac 12 also set a record for being horrible, 7 teams in the final 68, and I think 5 teams already eliminated.
The ACC went 12 and Pitt over the first two rounds.
You can't put a price tag on bragging rights for Bama fans.
Full replay. There is half an hour of nothing at the beginning.

You have to respect the hustle.
Meanwhile at UVA.... snow angels in the winter, hand holding in the spring and an ass whooping in the fall.
