It Has Been The Most Fabulous Offseason Ever

How Great Was That Play? So Great I Could Punch My Coach In The Face!
BeamerBall had a new wrinkle installed before its clash with Boston College in the ACC Championship yesterday. Anytime Virginia Tech comes up with a big play, someone walks up next to Coach Beamer and knocks him upside the head. Must've worked, as the Hokies took care of business yesterday and walke...
Virginia Tech Hokies
1. Nobody saw this coming. The Hokies came into this season having lost All-ACC guards Zabian Dowdell and Jamon Gordon in addition to their only real capable low post offensive threat, Coleman Collins. Those three were the heart and soul of a Hokies team that went 22-12 overall and 10-6 in the ACC, ...

Mangino, Orange Become One
He went down to quick defeat in the SHOTY First Round, but Kansas coach Mark Mangino proved his mettle last night; that Kansas team might have pretty good, doggunit....
Another "BCS" "Bowl Game"
Forgive us for not doing much of an update on the gripping Fiesta Bowl last night. As happy as we might be for West Virginia and their new coach — and we're so, so happy, no question — but it's difficult to be too fired up for one top 10 to beat another top 10 in a meaningless bowl game just because...
Michael Vick Hall Shall Stand!

The Best Possible Reason To Buy An MLS Jersey
I don't know if I can take another second of NFL Draft coverage. No matter what I look at now, a tree, a drunken hobo, a bag of cocaine, I see a scrolling "team needs" bar underneath it, and I hear Mel Kiper telling me about its ability to explode. So we leave you today with something, hopefully, ki...
One Terrifying Ebay Discovery, A Few Months Later
So all you want to do is go to see your beloved Georgia Bulldogs play in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl against the Virginia Tech Hokies. You hop on eBay and buy a pair of tickets, go to the game and watch your team win. All is well....
How Virginia Tech Touched Our Little World Here
As you've surely noticed, we haven't gone into the Virginia Tech horrors too much around these parts; we felt we had nothing we could possibly add to something so unfathomable. But there are still ways the tragedy has touched our little world over here....

Virginia Tech Hokies (20-11) vs. Illinois Fighting Illini (23-11) When: Friday, 7:10 p.m. Where: Columbus...
Virginia Tech Hokies
1. Can't Win the Small Ones. The Hokies finished their ACC season 10-6, their best mark in the conference and one game out of first place. The weird part? Tech was 5-2 against the top four teams in the conference, including 3-0 against teams ranked in the national top five, but only 3-4 against the ...
Frank Beamer's All-American Ballot
In case you had any doubt left — though we don't know how you could have — that a ballot in the hands of college football coaches is a dangerous thing, here's the All-American ballot from Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer....
Kirk Herbstreit Hates Your Funky Dance Moves
I promised you more Kirk Herbstreit vitriol, and here it is. During Thursday night's Virginia Tech/Boston College game, Herbie delights in verbally lighting up Virginia Tech linebacker Brenden Hill....
New Mexico's Woes Continue
Bad Jocks has been all over this story, and they've got their confirmation from the NFL Draft Almanac: Apparently Marcus "New Mexico" Vick scored a lowly 11 on his Wonderlic test at the NFL combine last month. That's slightly better than Vince Young's badly graded score, but somehow still lower th...
The New New Mexico?
Perhaps the quarterback position at Virginia Tech is merely cursed....
New Mexico Packs Some Serious Heat
