a comedy classic!
1. White Reece's pb cups (you just don't get too many of them, unfortunately, because the parents eat them before the kids make it to the door).
2. Those round caramels with the white center (sorry, don't remember the name, because the wrapper never lasted long enough for me to read it).
3. Anything dark chocolate (the really cheap kind of chocolate is never dark)
4. Any regular chocolate (except the really cheap stuff, like Palmer).
5. Any cheap chocolate (I'm sensing a theme here.....).
The things I hated to get when I was a kid (some of which I don't think they make anymore, thankfully). This is the kind of stuff that made me stop going trick-or-treating:
1. Candy cigarettes (you can't even gauge how disgusting I find these).
2. Those little wax bottles that look like soda bottles, but with some disgusting syrup kind of stuff in them. Or anything else with/or made out of wax. There used to be little orange wax harmonicas that people handed out, that were supposedly edible. Really? Wax? Come on people. Glad I haven't seen anything like that kind of stuff in a long time.
3. CPJ taffy (see post above)
4. Any kind of candy made to look like or with a wrapper made to look like a body part. (exception: chocolate eyeballs-see #5 top candy rating above).
5. Candy corn. This stuff is only marginally better as a decoration than it is as a candy. It's way too much like wax (see #2 bad candy rating above).
It's easy to think that way, but remember you have to do that EVERY set of downs all the way up the field. You only have to not do it once and you're punting most likely. If you think 4.8 yards a play is good, check out the yards/play by every team in the country:

4.8 yards per play is good for 105th in the country.
I think you switched your 5s. Because Nerds are gross and Milky Way is awesome.
This is the U's Cultural Problem in a nutshell, so elequoently put by former Cane Lamar Thomas, after the brawl with FIU. The brawl, of course, happened after Butch Davis "cleaned" the program up.
"You can’t come over to our place talking noise like that. You’ll get your butt beat. I was about to go down the elevator to get in that thing...I say, why don't we meet outside in the tunnel after the ball game and get it on some more? You don't come into the OB, baby. We've had a down couple of years but you don't come in here talking smack. Not in our house."
The U is so damn great at "talking noise", but even better at playing mediocre football.
Well, he didn't seem very enthusiastic to participate in this interview. Short direct answers, not giving any depth to his answers as previous interviewees have given.
Paul Johnson hands out the black and orange peanut taffy shits that end up the only thing left at the bottom of your bag.

...blacklisting that was said to keep him out of college football for four years?
it's a hard thing to verify, but it would be damning in the eyes of the VT system. Beamer has too much invested, not only in his own program but as a leader in the the college football coaches realm to sign up a potential rogue OC. Troy, Middle Tennessee, La Tech...they can afford to take chances.
Maybe someone will take a chance on Franklin this year at a major program, but I seriously doubt it will be VT if there is reality in this "blacklisting" label.
- Peanut M&Ms
- Snickers
- Reece's Cups
- Mike and Ike
- Caramello
NC State is Twix. It has everything and should be good, but it isn't.
Top Halloween Candy (ie, the house you go back to every year)
1) Reese Cups (If you disagree, I can't take you seriously as a football mind)
2) Kit Kat
3) Peanut Butter Snickers
4) M&M's (all varieties)
5) Nerds
Worst (ie place you avoid next year)
1) Tootsie Rolls
2) Candy Corn
3) Anything wrapped in saranwrap
4) Offbrand Sweet Tarts
5) Milky Way
If by "everyone hates candy corn," you actually mean "everyone loves candy corn," then you are correct.
Also, uva probably promises all the kids in their neighborhood great things like full size candy bars, but only 6 people show up.
I'd also like to believe that VT gives out full size candy bars, and also invites the parents in for a beer.
My co-workers with kids had damn well better bring some candy in tomorrow
That's weird, because I don't find UNC delicious and awesome.
UNC would probably be Worther's Original. Just seems right....
I don't get how people have such a dislike for UVa. They should not be a rival - they are a COMPLETELY different school than Virginia Tech, and both schools complement each other well. We do engineering, architecture, agriculture, math/science, etc. and they business, English, law, liberal arts, etc.
In reality, I consider West Virginia a rival, and I can firmly say that I dislike everything that they are. Furthermore, UNC should be UVa's rival.
they'll both be learning a new offense.
Marshall has been better the last two games than Collins, especially against the run.
Fleck?
2 mins left, down 6 midfield. That puts the epic in epic fail.
...thinks highly of Miami.
...plays
JR Collins is listed 2nd string behind Marshall. Another motivational thing, or are they just that much more impressed with Marshall?
ohio is obviously a strong squad and reading your sum up makes it seem like it was a pretty competitive game. if we can hang with them first game out of the gates then we can compete in the acc.
haha maybe i was just really gloom and doom for this years hokiehoops but this makes me feel a little better.
i've wondered what the blacksburg equivalent of the shapiro stuff would be. . .
a day on claytor lake and a night at southern exposure?
sounds like a good day
I don't get why we don't run any running back screens. They'd slow down the pass rush and get JC Coleman into space. Even with David Wilson I didn't think we ran enough of those.

Last (I would rather eat toothpaste). Candy Corn
