Wife is an Urbandale HS grad, her parents moved around several places before their passing...WDM near where the mall is now (it wasn't there when they lived out there), out on Hickman in Clive. My college roomate lived a few blocks from them at one point (don't know if he's still there or not). Her brother still lives in WDM, works for AE dairy. I love it out there, especially in the summer. We haven't been out there since 2007, and I miss it.
Yes...that's what I meant by potentially good news.

Edit...nevermind:

I agree. For as much optimism and hope (with recruiting turning around and what not) that we could be headed for greater things, I don't think any Hokie fans want to even think of the possibility that it is equally as likely that we have seen the pinnacle of Hokie football come and go already.
To make it clear, I do not believe the sky is falling, but either eventuality is equally as likely at this point. Which is why it would be silly to look back at those 10 win years and all of these bowls as "failures", as by that definition the season of every single team save one each year is a "failure". But I do agree there were some opportunities to be had that we just couldn't seize perhaps

Crap. Mason is a Stanford guy too, seriously doubt he would steal Moorehead away from Tech, but you never know.
Is he mooning NYC? If so that is amazing.
You almost make it seem like it's easy to win football games...
I am certain that every single player for VT has tried their hardest to win football games. Winning such a high number of them should be seen as a huge accomplishment, because it's not easy. Yet you look at it as a failure. I guess you're just going to have to settle for always being disappointed in your sports teams, because I don't think it's possible for any team to have the level of success that you seem to expect.
Hug it out fuckers.
I'm awake now.
You think a TV network is behind the technology curve... you should see some of the NASA centers.
That's right, NASA.
I think I'm in love. [Checks down at pants]. Yep. Definitely in love. [Gets up to go change pants].
What about Kyle just wrecking GT (pun sort of intended)? He was such a beast just diving through the line and screwing up everything for PJ.
I'm not sure where you're seeing that Santana Moss was better on the Jets than with the Redskins? He's had some great years in Washington for a guy of his size, multiple 1000+ receiving seasons.
Carlos Rogers had himself one good year when he left Washington, and now is playing at his normal level in San Francisco (i.e., football comes floating down from the heavens as a gift from above, hits his hands as softly as a feather, and he drops it.)
Michigan got lucky too, remember their first touchdown when Whitley and another defender (can't remember who, I think it was Fuller) collided into each in what surely would have been an incompletion if they didn't.
As soon as I saw the video box I knew it was going to be this. Classic.
is he standing on the window ledge? If that's a floor to ceiling window, he has really grown... what kind of experiments are they doing at that "hospital"?
Right, uh that's whatever this thread article was talking about.
Even though we shit a turdsandwich, the LOGAN LEAP against UMD (btw, you know if you interchange u & m they MUD? Kind of appropriate and explanatory).
Doesn't look like we will get to find out. I wish it had been Morris, but Mason makes sense. Defensive mind from an academic focused university. He'll fit in well at Vandy. Had Morris gone, it would be Vandy trying to imitate the success of Auburn and Mizzou from this past year with the up tempo high powered offense mentality.
Stanford D coordinator. Great hire. RT @sbterry247: Sources tell @247Sports that Derek Mason will soon be named #Vanderbilt head coach.— Stewart Mandel (@slmandel) January 17, 2014
Nope. Legit loss. Never should have come down to overtime, let alone a video review.
We were dominating that game between the 20s, only to coach ourselves out of an easy W. That game was the quintessential Big Game Beamer.
Great, now I'm fucking thirsty. I am Bender, please insert liquor baby!
Yep. That's whatever it was you were talking about is for.
Just that entire game for me. I could watch it again and again.


I lost it with the smile at the end.
