It makes me very happy that morganhole has us on ABC
Turkey leg for Roxys, that shit is delicious. Have they opened their new restaurant near Deep Ellum yet? I moved out of Boston six months ago, haven't kept up with the beer/food scene.

They also built a Yard House near Fenway that rivals the beer selection at Sunset. Also the Roxy's Grilled Cheese truck will be in Cleveland Circle from 11-3p on Sat... def worth a stop if you're visiting.
I cannot wait for Ford to get on campus. I have a feeling this guy makes a Facyson style statement and doesn't redshirt but gets playing time.
we wouldn't have an empty case in our field house.
Also, any TKPer's going to the game, the Red Sox victory parade starts at 10am on Sat, so expect the city to be a zoo.
Dammit now I need another damn drink!
Very good read, thank you for the post
Sweet Cheeks in Fenway is better but more expensive. Blue Ribbon in Newton, and the hole in the wall Smoken' Joes in Brighton are also excellent options (and all are much closer to the stadium)
don't forget bukowski's in back bay
The "swinging-gate" punt protection formation (3 man wall) favors protecting the punt block but at that same time puts 3 potential tacklers further away from the punt returner. The punt protect formation Beamer has been using brings the maximum the amount of tacklers the closest to the returner to minimize return yardage. Considering that Beamer uses the field position battle as a sticking point for his scheme and has said as such, I highly doubt that formation will change anytime soon. Football is a game of inches, so every bit helps, or hurts.
Besides, VT hasn't had that many, if any, more punts blocked than those that use the swinging gate, so why mess with something that doesn't need to be fixed? There's plenty of other things in our special teams that needs attention...
Logan stated that against Duke he was going through progressions too fast. It looked like that to me as he was too quick to go to the checkdown where he often threw into coverage. I think Duke just decided to cover the check down knowing LT's recent tendencies. LT couldn't make the adjustments and correct reads. He does not seem to have a clock inside his head to naturally count and feel the timing of the play. If he does it was way off last Saturday. You only get that through experience and practice. If he was not being taught that prior to this year it is no wonder he still hasnt got it right. I hope it clicks in soon.
Redbones is pretty good for BBQ in Summerville, recommended.
And yea, Sam Rogers begat Sam Rogers, and the Lord saw and said it was good. But then Cody Journell did swing his mighty boot, and the Lord saw, but it was no good. And verily did St. Joe chug bourbon, and St. French eat pie, and St. Mason stare blankly into space. And there was much weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Point of information: Am I supposed to use quotations when referencing those 'voices in my head?'
remember when sergio render let his helmet go the whole year? that thing was battle scarred by the bowl game. it was awesome.
I was going to reply in an off-color fashion, but then I realized from reading your comments that you are female (right?) and I put on the brakes out of respect.
is it ok to laugh again?
it is, it is.
There really is just something that feels...not quite right about using the hashtag. It's even worse saying it.
It has been too long since a lefty played QB in Blacksburg. I anxiously await Mr. Ford's arrival.
On a related note, Mark Summers now hosts a "Dunkel Dare" challenge during Philly Beer Week each year and the audience loooooooooooooooves his vulgarity

Mannnn beat me to it
I would agree your passion is there, but it sure came across the wrong way. For me I will stomp and scream every time they lose but I will never disparage the team or call them 'the name'. But that's just me.
