A buddy and i were talking on our way back to our hotels in the blithe Jacksonville sun. He asked me, " Do you ever wonder if we are cursed?"
"It sure seems so", I said.
That was JAN 1, 02 after yet another FSU loss. Now im not saying FSU is a part of our curse, they are just our football nemesis.
Im talking about certain occurrences, happenings etc that surround our sports program then and since then. Every program has had their fare share of tragedies over the years..ie marshall, tex AM fire. This post isnt intended to address anything on that level- Im talking more about boneheaded things our players, ex players, coaches, and AD's do to shoot themseves and vt in the foot. Let me reveal part of the Laundry list of blunders, mishaps, mistakes, and misfortunes mostly outside the lines of Virginia Tech football and basketball.
1) hiring of brian stinespring and his perrennial 100th rated O. With a 50th rated O, we would have a natty right now.
2) Marcus Vick Stomp/drugs/guns at mcdonalds/drunk driving/etc- with him at the helm, we may have gone to the natty title game.
3) not offering Stephon Curry a scholarship- we need him, we need his character, we need his game, we need a boost in the arm. he wouldve done so right by us. !someones head should be chopped off for not offering the curry brothers a scholarship!
4) Michael Vick/dogs-no explanation needed
5) countless last minute comebacks, close losses and the wrong side of buzzer beaters in bball- really how much more can we take? coach- fire them up somehow?
6) TV commentators- negative bias against VT in every sporting contest
7) deron kicking melchionni in the F"N face
8) stupid NFL d**kheads..Deangleo/Jimmy Williams
9) branden ore- crackerhead
10) bowl games
11) druckenmiller sexual assault in downtown bburg
12) football players beating up track players.
13) macho getting shot at
Is there a native american burial ground underneath cassel colliseum? is there a nuclear waste facility underneath the atheltic dept offices? Why else is there a rain cloud around vt sports? Is there a shaman sticking a Frank Beamer voodoo doll with a pin in a circular fashion ala the maharaja in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? Is bstines eating chilled monkey brains?
as for keeping bstines on the coaching staff- weaver, beamer, "dont drink the juice"
where are our proverbial shankara stones that will save our civilinca from Kalee?
