A friend of mine played for a high school football team called "the Dots" and then played for the U of Hawaii and was a "Rainbow". Did your friend play at Poca HS in WV,,,,,??? North of Charleston there is a town called POCA and the HS nick name is "Dots" I am partial to the Lansing Lug Nutz too...One of the best small baseball parks I have ever been to

Sure is a lot of loot for that loogie

Marcus Vick....I can see him in Silver AND Black with Randy Moss as his buddy...

Peter Gabriel....Secret World..... I think this was from 1993 or 1994,,,but still is good, IMHO

The fake punt call showed the chutzpah Coach Rich has,,,I loved it..... re: Couches..I too have Sat on a couch in Morgantown that later became part of the atmosphere.....There is a candle guy who is selling 'couch candles' that are to be burned instead of the couches... $20,,,but it is a BIG candle and I will try to find the link.... on a side note..please pray hard for the 13 miners who are trapped in the collapsed mine in Upshur...

Flutie's drop kick was pretty good...But I am more amazed that the film from the LAST drop kick in 1941 was found... Then in the press conference Bellichek (SP?) gave kudos the Chris Berman for mentioning Flutie's drop kicks in the CFL.... I remember fooling around in HS football practice with drop kicking...We used to have contests between the old fashioned straight on kickers and the new soccer style kicking.... Geesh that was a LONG time ago, since the soccer style kicking was just starting..... Damn I am old.....

13 more hours... LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS !!!!!

Happy New Year to Bills fans everywhere...

-- Pat White, the freshman QB who took over for the injured Adam Bednarik, ran for 220 yards himself, setting a WVU QB rushing record. I've never seen a quarterback run for over 200 yards in a game before. -- The fans. West Virginia is an often maligned state, for everything from being poorer than say, New York, to the kids in Morgantown that burn couches everytime the Mountaineers win. I saw that there were still a lot of people in the stadium when the final gun sounded, even though the game had been decided late in the third quarter and the wind chill was plunging near zero. One tradition WVU fans do at the end of games is sing "Country Roads" by the late John Denver, so I would think most of the fans who stayed wanted to do that at the end of the "Backyard Brawl". Next year, the Mountaineers and the Marshall Thundering Herd start an in-state seven year series. Most West Virginians are fans of both teams, so it will be really interesting to see how this series splits the state. The Marshall--- WVU game next year and for the next several years will be interesting to say the least...Many peeps here in WV are ardently WVU OR Marshall and bad mouth each other a lot....I'll post the links to newspaper articles next fall... I for one cheer for both and have a front lisense plate that has the WVU and Marshall logo on it with the phrase " The House Divided" I also have a daughter at each school so it really doesn't matter to me who wins this game....Both places love my tuition checks....

I got a new Bills flag ..... a Bills Bottle opener that plays the Monday Night football song and a pair of Bills socks..... Already have 22 shirts so I don't need any more of those... except when I get a customized LewPort # 71 jersey next summer

Bill....Merry Christmas to you and your family.... ps...Good analysis

Miller Lite Beer just had a commercial with "The Lights" and the catch line... "enjoy the Lite" What this guy in Ohio did was pretty cool... If ya want to see great lights, go see Trans Siberian Orchestra in concert..

Thanks for the update JoeF... Continued prayers for a complete recovery

Generally my two daus were well behaved in a public setting....If they misbehaved at a restaurant, they got "the LOOK" and knew that trouble was brewing... About the worse they ever did was a monster belch ( aided by Dr. Pepper ) that shook windows.... As a kid I misbehaved one time that I can remember...'cuz later that night I got a reminder about what proper restuarant behavior meant.... If the parents do not control the kids, I have no problem with the manager asking the family to leave...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Cindy !!!!

Exactly..... 70--3 would be fine by me.... GEAUX BILLS

I hear what ya say......I am not holding my breath either...

The TSO Concert last night was great.... Superb musicianship A light / laser show that is un real... Entertaining as all get out......... They performed for 2 hours 40 minutes and a portion of the tickets sales is donated to a local charity..... re: the light show...TSO must use a gigawatt of electricity...More jobs for the WV coal miners...LOL.... So, if you were thinking about going to see them, get going and call ticketmaster.... A new CD will be released in 2006,,,But it will NOT have a Christmas theme

On Friday we order Chinese food (since they deliver ) and General TSO's is a favorite...So that will be in 21 hours... T S O .. Trans Siberian Orchestra.....

"...hives about ticket prices".. But THAT is a concert I would spend the $$$ for... PG fronting and PC on the drums...Yup,,it would be worth 'it'.

Like Eric and Fezmid say, the age range at a TSO concert goes from 8--80..All ages like the show.... Of the 4 CDs...I like Beethoven's Last Night the best...but thats just me... 10 more hours ...tick...tock...

12 more hours until me and Mrs. Lew see TSO in Charleston. We went last year and it was great. This year they will play in the Civic Center which seats @ 12,000. Last years show was at the Memorial Auditorium which seats 4,000...It was kinda cramped.... I can highly recommend TSO... Great concert.. www.trans-siberian.com

Yes,,I hope the Colts 'run the table' and go 19-0..... Bill Polian, Peyton and Tony Dungy are three examples of what is 'right' with the NFL... The h#ll with those old Dolphins...

Congrats meazza21 on your first game at the Ralph...!! sitting low does stink...in that your view is blocked... Make your plans for the home opener next year and join the TSW party...It is a blast and Jay always gets great seats ...

I thought the color on my TV was bad when watching the Bears highlights... Geesh those were ugly....Miami's orange was worse though..... Orange is OK on helmets,,,but not on the unis...IMHO...
