The B.S.C. is pleased by this video.
Alright, so there's nothing really to complain about from the draft. I have nothing to rant about. Yeah, it sucks that Danny Coale is with the Cowboys. Yeah, it sucks that David Wilson is with the Giants. Yeah, it sucks that Boykin is with the Packers. But hey, our boys drafted pretty well. No complaints. Moving on.
Andre Davis has joined the Hokie Sports Hall of Fame this year. Well deserved.
Something else well deserved:
"Wednesday: Arizona (Flagstaff, Ariz., Northern Arizona University)
How the first day of camp can lift an entire organization. If you blinked, you missed it. Or if you were gazing at the imposing San Francisco Peaks just north of the practice field in this lovely college town, you could have missed it too. Ryan Williams, who'd provided so much hope for the Cardinals' running game last summer before rupturing his patella tendon in a preseason game, took a handoff up the middle in the first practice of the summer. Then the second-round draft pick out of Virginia Tech in 2011 did something he hadn't done in 49 weeks: He juked one defender left while planting and cutting right, then did the exact opposite -- juke right, cut left. The crowd oooohed. "Go Li'l Sweetness!'' someone yelled, because that's what Williams likes to be called. Two hard cuts. As heartbreaking as it was to lose Williams last year, that's how thrilling it was for the Cardinals to see that two-second cut-cut scene. Quarterback Kevin Kolb and wideout Larry Fitzgerald were talking about the play afterward with a camp visitor. "Amazing,'' said Kolb. "Great. The comfort level you've got to have after whatever knee injury he had --" "Patella,'' Fitzgerald said. "Yeah,'' said Kolb. "But three, four cuts, after an injury like that. To trust your knee to make moves like that ... Wow." On the field, Williams was reliving the play over and over, as reporters crowded around him. I asked if he'd heard the "Li'l Sweetness'' shoutout. "I heard it,'' he said. "I heard it. Felt good.''
To all you Logan-haters out there, SHUT IT! Hate on the problem: B-R-Y-A-N S-T-I-N-E-S-P-R-I-N-G. Don't hate on the boy for wanting to be a hero. I have major hope for him. And, oh by the way, you should, too. Hokies Respect doesn't mean respecting Austin Peay, it means dealing with the asinine coaching decisions that happen on the Offensive side of the ball. Stiney is an idiot; we all know this. Don't blame The Giraffe for it. So SHUT your yaps on the boy, and let the 6'10" behemoth play ball. You all should be ashamed for hating on your own QB. Moving on.
Well, that's it. I've used as many two-word sentences as any English teacher could stomach, so my time here today is done. I just wanted to tell you that I'm baaaaaAAAAAAAAccccccccccckkkkk. Back to my two-a-weeks for your reading enjoyment. I've done my leg presses and my dead lifts, and I'm ready for all the nonsense that Stiney can throw at me this season.
