^^^he was right of course...know this isn't sport, but I wonder how we can solve the highly dangerous and complex problems in this world, when the "voters" now have the attention span of hummingbirds, don't read books, know nothing of history, and think everything can be summed up in a tweet. I tell my children all the time...stop worrying about what people think until someone can convince you they actually do think. works for me. you guys certainly have been put through it the past couple of yrs...seems like a nice community.

I agree. Our great Country has slipped. It's all about greed with our Government, politicians, and people wanting a hand out. The illegials in the USA get it freely. Kids today don't have critical thinking skills. They are sitting in a classrom and performing to a test. No Child Left Behind. We have gone away from creative and real life experiences in teaching kids. Things that teach us how to do the simple things in life.
Go back to Ready for Football. page 11. I wrote about Mt. Airy, and East Forsyth.
read it...you know I was at East when an unknown broadcaster started his career calling h.s.games...he came there. his name? billy packer. believe it or not. my aunt was in the same class as andy griffith and all she remembers is he used to read comic books inside of other books...half the family(a very large family)was from mt airy, the other half, southern va mts. weird to walk the main street and see the plates from all over the country.
Heck yea. Glad you caught it finally. I married a woman from Pilot Mountain. Too much education and not enough of compromise.
UNC will wipe Elon.
Wake Forest will shock UNC with a 1st ACC loss. Mark it down. I don't care how much Ken D writes on here with the hurry up offense. Wake will beat my son's school. Go little Hokies!

Ah. "Tombstone." Val Kilmer stated this to the uneduated when he took out the guy to finish Wyatt Earp. What was his name?
No one on here is my" Huckleberry" Total Recall. I like my avatar from VT. Love the Hokies through the thick and thin. Our basketball team isn't much to talk about. But. VT has owns more ACC Crowns than anyone to date in football lately.
WF will upset UNC. I'm glad that you used some creativity in this one. Ol Val Kilmer is proud. Numbers don't mean a heckeva lot until there is some substance. This is to you.
There is a person on here that isn't a UNC grad, but heckeva fan, She(he) writes more stuff about basketball, football, and all things petaining to UNC than any Graduate of UNC. She has loads of fans and people that respond.
Still. Some of us can read through this too. Maybe a New Yorker. Go Hokies. I hope that some will read this one. No harm nor foul. I'm just tired to reading so many from a few that claim to know everything on here. Go UNC. Go Hokies.
RE: New info on CJ Leslie
I think alot of folks got the WRONG impression about Calvin leslie for one he did very well in School and on his SAT's, he's very smart, I think the problem he had was when he went to Word of God which is a good Church and school but some and not all of the folks their put him on a pedestal and I think that first year at STATE when things didn't work out well the fans got down on him alittle and he didn't know how to handle it and the lack of focus showed, he's never been a thicked headed kid the CJ I know is very laid back and smoove type guy, folks I'm here to tell you he's a really good person as well as a very academic person it's so funny how some people talk about this guy like he's troubled or like he struggles to make good grade....I bet half of you didn't even know he finished his high school requirments early for his Diploma.

Actually Hokie, Doc Holiday said it to Johnny Ringo when he was drunk in the street, and then when he met him at the Big Oak by the creek. Johnny Ringo was "an educated man" and spoke fluent Latin. I'm only thinking a one week bet on the Avatar. Can't have you compromising your standards for too long in here. You never know where 'ghostly spirits' of 'deceased rams' are hiding to take advantage of an Avatar bet. Have I ever mentioned Logan Thomas is a heck of a football player?
Oh, "I'm your Huckelberry" means "I'm the man for the job" or "I'm a sporting fellow" from what I've read.

understand about that education/compromise thing.lol. my sis lives in pilot mt. mom one of 11, so I have relatives I wouldn't know if I ran into them on the street. Not much to do there, so everyone gets started early...wink. Hey I have no expectations. elon is a football program for the division they are in. wake...well I hate to break it to the wolfpack nation, but wake is the premiere football program in the state...last time I checked they have won the ACC more recently and gone to a BCS bowl. hmmm. I know we haven't won the ACC in a while and no BCS,although we would have gone during the last yrs of mack brown. we finished 4th in AP late nineties, something state has NEVER done...so I guess we are the second best football school. Of course, if we beat them, I assume your expectations will rise. I love westerns so I know the movie well...High Noon will always be #1,but I like them all. must have shot some bankers in another life...almost sure of it...lol

The hurry up offense can be intimidating, but so far nobody has figured out how to play a hurry up defense. :)

certainly those tapes from the Butch era won't help much since Fedora has changed everything. We'll see how Butch's recruits fare with trying to fundamentally changed offense/defense, and I expect, once he can stock the team with his own players, they should be better.

Oh, "I'm your Huckelberry" means "I'm the man for the job" or "I'm a sporting fellow" from what I've read.
I always thought it had to do with Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer but i saw this and it sounds plausible:
All these responses are silly assumptions!
In the movie he didn't say "I'm your huckleberry", he said "I'm your HUCKLEBEARER". His accent in the movie makes it hard to hear. In the 1800's little handles on a coffin were called "huckles", an English term. Instead of pallbearers the people who carried the coffin were called "hucklebearers" at the funeral.
This is why the other guy got so bent outta shape when Doc said "I'm your hucklebearer". He was telling the other guy "I'm your pallbearer" or literally I'm causing your funeral. This is why it was so offensive and the shooting started.
