Nah it's all good. Also, on that note, let me state that I don't judge.
I wouldn't mind grabbing some players from PVI.
If I am not mistaken, Tech has usually allowed seniors from several of the smaller schools that don't draw the interest for a Pro Day to work out at Tech Pro Days so they get a chance to be seen by the majority of scouts.
Good points. Calm down though, I wasn't necessarily agreeing with him, just saying how I interpreted his statement which I didn't think was completely wrong. I tried to clarify things by saying I don't really think she's doing this to pay for school.
Maybe in Cali she will. Society is constantly changing and (for better or worse) sex still sells.
I called out sick from work today. Cough Cough...
Very close to 100% of the people in the profession are abused. They're all exploited. They don't make nearly as much money as we're made to believe. It is slavery. The vast majority of girls in movies you'll see on the internet are under 18, despite claims to the contrary. "Normal" people don't make that decision. Either they're coerced into doing it (and then made to believe they can't get out, because who would want them?) or they see it as the only viable option (and there are a plethora of reasons as to why they even view it as "viable"). There is very little difference to working in the porn industry and prostitution.
My only concern with Amaker was how he performed at Michigan in a big conference. It wasn't pretty. Right now he is the big fish in a teeny pond in the Ivy League. Not sure if its that he has improved that much as a coach or if he is benefitting from the lesser talent. His teams do play tough defense though.
I thought the same thing. Two down seasons in a row why should I expect the players to have the same energy as I do for a game. But, it was the UVa game so I thought they would be a little more jacked up. However, you could sense that they were playing with the scared to lose mentality. No killer instinct.
Oh, left off the most important part. When Sam Rogers threw that trick play TD pass to LT I completely lost it. It was obvious I wasn't a real media guy when two airplane bottles of fighting cock fell out of my fleece pockets. The UVa fans in the stands behind our bench really gave me crap for that. "Even their reporters drink during the game..." haha it was classic.
Sorry, not the first time and won't be the last time I didn't read an article.

MAKE HISTORY
I just stated it in the OP: Belle Knox. Enjoy [sarcastica]
Class? What class? I'm staying home.
I'm gonna go ahead and ask the question that's on everyone's mind, what's her porn name?
Hokie House FTW! Power hour was the best. They also served nachos on a giant pizza tray.
I'm not trying to be ugly but if I had to go into porn to pay for college I wouldn't
be bragging about it. Especially to the public. I didn't finish college because I couldn't
afford it...never once did I ever think about selling myself as an option.
First of all I completely agree with TechHokie13, I too would venture to say all porn is not "entertainment" as some people choose to call it; it's sex trafficking/slavery and I believe if more people start seeing it that way then fewer people will support it and hopefully that God-forsaken "industry"(wow I hate acknowledging it that way) will lose it's consumers.
Second, this girl is destroying her future. That's great you're paying so much for your degree from Duke, NO ONE IS GOING TO HIRE YOU. Outside of a publicity firm, maybe, she's not going to have a chance in hell to get a "normal" job.
I seem to recall that he played the position and started working as a QB coach. I'd say he realized he could probably just make more money running a QB camp than he could as a position coach, not to mention live in San Diego and have a stable job, as opposed to entering one of the most unstable professions on the planet.
And I know people DON'T want to hear this, but check out his comparables to other TEs. THAT'S why there is so much talk about him potentially being a TE in the NFL. Yes, his comparables to other QBs is absurdly off the charts, but he also knocks it out of the park at TE, and compares well to guys like Grahame and Gronk, and now we have the stats to show. With the way the NFL is starting to lean HEAVILY on the TE position right now, I would not be surprised if there is a growing market for Logan as a TE project right now over being a QB prospect, and I would suspect his future earnings potential could be greater as a TE.
I thought the Underground was the place with all the townies.
Using that logic you're a slave. Since money forced you to have a job. You don't wake up one day and decide "You know what sounds like fun? Working my ass of 40 hours a week to make some guy in a suit on the other side of the country rich." There is a gigantic difference between working in porn and the sex trade.
His statement is such and massive and erroneous generalization it's ridiculous. Some women do go into that industry because it can be extremely lucrative and pays the bills. This is not to detract from the men and women who are forced into this against their will, but don't state that normal people who make a decision are being abused.
When I started it was a sandwich shop whose name escapes me (I think it shared a name with a building on campus), then I think it was a bagel place, and then the something else you mentioned, then Woody's.
Not necessarily "against her will," but I'd say it's not exactly like she was choosing between working at Staples and getting railed by a few dozen dudes and picked the latter cause she thought it'd be fun. My point is that emotionally healthy people don't choose that profession as a viable option. I wouldn't be shocked in the least if she and Fishburne's daughter had been sexually abused at some point in their life. It's not empowering (regardless of what she says. In all honesty, she really is lying, even possibly to herself - and I'm quoting the girl that's been there before on this one). It's a demeaning, abusive profession. A 30 minute movie can take 8-12 hours to film. Extensive reconstructive surgery (I think you can guess where) is very common among those women simply because of the abuse their lady bits take. Add to the fact that the women in these jobs take home only a tiny portion (or, for strippers and prostitutes next to none) of the money they're responsible for making, and it's hard to see this as anything other than human exploitation.
That is an awesome story. I think some of the attitudes you saw were a result of the whole season almost wrapped up with the issues we all saw weighing heavy on their mind. A different, more productive season would produce a different vibe in that scene. Us fans place a lot of pressure on these guys and you saw the result.
Sounds like you had an interesting lunch that day...

I thought about doing that, and it would have been easier in retrospect.
