It should be noted trying to maintain a sports blog with a civil atmosphere, is almost revolutionary in concept! Sometimes, our emotions get the best of us.
Thank you for maintaining this site, joe, it's all first-rate work! This community of Hokies is truly something special.

Up-vote for semi-obscure SW reference...and an EXCELLENT explanation of parentage!
I'm no programmer but here is my thought process:
- Does the comment make fun of UVA?
-- Yes = Turkey Legs!
-- If no, does the comment make me laugh?
--- Yes = Turkey Legs!
--- If no, does the comment involve food?
---- Yes = Turkey Legs!
---- If no, does the comment contribute to the conversation?
----- Yes = Turkey Legs!
----- If no, then is the comment bashing, flaming, trolling, being unnecessarily argumentative?
------ Yes = Downvote
------ else, do nothing.
nice...I am an upvote whore...i throw out turkey legs like a two dollar hooker.
I thought they didn't allow planking on the football field.
That's ESPN, for ya. An outstanding base of knowledge, and cutting-edge coverage and commentary.
Oh well, the camera crews do a great job and the HD picture quality is superb.
Didn't he finish first team ACC last year? Makes it even more embarrassing IMO.
To Joe and all of my fellow TKP-ers, a golf clap for being civil and generally awesome. I love you all. Let's keep up the good work.

# | Bitter blog - ESPN's Todd McShay weighs in on Thomas, Exum, Gayle's draft stock how we may have ruined his probable NFL career by forcing him to play qb
Interesting...I would never have thought that it was forcing a kid to play a position that's the exact same he played in High School. Nobody knows if Logan could block, run routes, and do everything he needs to be a TE because HE WAS NEVER A TE AND NEVER HAS BEEN. Despite what the recruiting services wanted to call him, he was a QB in high school and his skill set came from that. So as far as ruining his "probable NFL career" as a TE, you can also say that we ruined his possible NFL career as a Punter, Safety, LB, and any other position other than QB as well.
This is why I usually end up watching the game alone, in the basement, as far away from my newborn so hopefully she doesn't pick up my full verbal repertoire until at least the age of three....will make for awkward family events if every other word out of my kids mouth is a curse word
I agree with your points.
In KJ's case, I think he is trying to house it every single time. He needs to take what is there and be happy.
In Knowles case, I think he's playing scared. He either doesn't trust his blocking, or has Dyrell Roberts' Syndrome.
Both cases can be solved with replacement and/or coaching.
I love the possibility of Dadi lining up at Whip like he did against Pitt.
VT must score first.

We need someone returning kicks who "runs angry"....straight forward and looking to inflict damage on the defenders...
I'm going to upvote every comment on this forum. Just because.
My ratio probably isn't that good as far as upvoting and downvoting. I don't know what the numbers would look like, though. I wouldn't doubt that I have 100 downvotes and 1000 upvotes
I'm not going to say from who, but a father of one of our current starters emailed me to let me know how much he thought of the site and discussions on it after the game.
The identity of the player is now the only piece of information I've ever wanted.
Yes.
Midi-chlorians.
It was a good letter all the way until the end. You are not slaves, you get a full scholarship to college. While you're there you also get to play a sport that most of us wish we could still play. Don't make stupid comparisons. When people start to use curse words while trying to make a legitimate argument it makes them sound uneducated and I tend to tune them out.
Yaaaaayyyyyyy
This site is AWESOME!
BTW- Not to be picky, but uvgay is 2-6 rather than 2-5 as stated above.......blah, ha, ha
received 50 down votes for stating my opinion after the duke game crew reporting in
-edit: first post since then. Looks like well over 50
As I was unable to watch the game, and it was a great team effort all around, what about Duke 2012? Weren't we down 21-0 in the first quarter? Didn't LT (with help, but still) come back and beat Duke 40 something to 20 something?
Sorry, no offense meant.
(There goes my shot at any upvotes.)
haha, thanks. I try to work it in whenever I can.
Yes, Buck.
