awesome news.
hey, that's where we'll be. yeah, it's a good hump, probably comparable to walking to lane from price's fork. plus you have the woods right there to avoid the port-a-potty lines.
Carrots with a little bit of brown sugar on them are always fantastic
tysean glenrod did pretty ok for a stretch there.
forget you guys, i friggin love cranberry sauce haha.
gimmee extra helpings of stuffing, green beans wrapped in bacon, buttered rolls, and baked mac n cheese. and then there's the pies, oh lord the pies, pumpkin, apple, lemon meringue (drools a little).
the day after thanksgiving my mom always makes cream turkey. i look forward to that almost as much as the main meal.
Like : Braised brussels sprouts with bacon and a little red onion (as mentioned above). No contest.
Dislike : Cranberry "Sauce" that is really chutney. Too tart.
Cranberry Sauce [that I will eat - guilty pleasure] should look like this, and it should have the ridges gosh darnit:
Welcome to Hokie Nation Michael! 2015 could be a scary good class.
green bean casserole ftw!
Dont like cranberry sauce
No Wonder FSU is winning so much, nobody that knows football wants to go to UF anymore.
BTW, Miami is not back.
Can't stand cranberry sauce.
I like roasted brussels sprouts with bacon.
I'm chuckling rather uncontrollably.
Welcome to the Nation, Michael.
Two conflicting thoughts:
1. UVA's best chance of winning is having Watford come in and follow a similar gameplan as CJ Brown. Organized chaos, let the rush come up field and look to run as your 2nd read. But Watford is a significantly worse passer than Brown, which is hard to say.
2. Lambert is what's for dinner. Dadi is licking his chops at his mobility. But, Lambert has proven, mostly against backups, that he deserves more minutes. He should have been starting all year. He's not great, especially right now because he has so little experience, and throwing to his sad-sack receivers against Kendall and Facyson and Tone is probably not going to go well for him. But, hell, why not?
Of note, I've been watching them all year to see how this specific issue went down. I expect we will have a similar issue next year, with an incumbent who is just good enough not to bench and a raw freshman QB who could be better if we'd just bite the bullet and play him. I think Leal should be better than Watford, at least passing it, but Ford very well may give us just what Lambert is giving UVA right now.
Boom. Great get, and a great start to a great week.
Connette has come in for relief a number of times this year, throwing and running, and saved their bacon. The NCSU game, #7 was off all game and Connette came in and stabilized. Looked like he did something similar in the comeback vs. UVA as well.
Loosing to an FCS school at home? Very Bad! OL's blocking players on same team? Priceless!
Connette is much more of a wildcat qb. When they put him in on 3rd/4th and 1, you know exactly what hes going to do. Problem is, we still couldnt stop him the couple times he did go in so he's pretty effective.
To pull a recruit like this out of SC with that offer sheet is impressive for this staff. Recruiting is definitely on the upswing. Sucks that we have to wait 2 years to see him play, but it's great to see us starting 2015 off with a bang. Welcome to the good guys Barnett!
Now this is a way to start out my Monday. Awesome news!
By the way...this week's "get more points" is probably one of the easiest for us, though I can't think of many other things besides what we already have.
25 points = If your mascot started a country, what would it be called? (Duh, Hokie Nation)
100 points = Design a flag for the country and take a picture of it or post the image of it.
I think that can be done!
It's in the "vote", but I'll make it easier.
I'll be there - will probably be tailgating in the Fontaine Ave Research Center parking lot. It's a bit of a walk to the game, but it's very close to 250/29.
edit: nvm..found the link
And then I remember how fortunate we were that HBCML called those time outs....
Oh yes. I do a dish that's carrots in butter and brown sugar, roasted at a low heat in the oven for a long time.
