"I JUST WANT TO KISS YOUR FACE"

DISCLAIMER: This entry is being rushed because I need to go sit in line to get a good spot in the Oakland Zoo tonight. I was going to put in the afternoon nap, but over 2 fans asked where the entry was for today. So I threw in a rub and here I am. I really planned on waiting until Tuesday for this update, but I'm keeping the fans happy.

If you don't know what the title is referring to, then you just DON'T KNOW. Rock of Love 2 started last night and was a huge hit. I am not going to give detailed rankings like I did for American Gladiators because all you need to know about last night is A+. Bret Michaels is way cooler than any athlete or other rockstar. Also, as far as sidekicks go, BIG John is a man's man as well. As far as VH1, they also get an A+ for the women they brought to the show. They are much hotter than last season. Not as many tatted up girls, just smokin hot bombshells. They also brought a great melting pot of women for Bret to chose from. They brought chicks from every decade. The 45 year old chick, Catherine, is pretty slammin for 45, god knows Bret isn't picking her, but she will be everyone's favorite by show 3. As long as she isn't an annoying c-word like Rodeo from season 1. I might boycott the episode when Rodeo comes back because she was that annoying. Inna, hopefully pronounced IN-YA, because if it is, the line I wanna get IN-YA pants has to have been said to her over 100 times. Did you see the split she could do? That alone was an invite to the final 8. Kristy Joe is the germaphobe who wouldn't slip the toungue to Bret. She is playing the hard to get angle, a very rare type on this show. It will propel her til about the final 10, then she will tell Bret how she is falling for him, slip the toungue and bam final 4 for Kristy Joe. Early prediction is Kristy Joe final 4, mark it down. The Floss' favorite is currently Destiney. I like strippers, and with a name like Destiney with the -ey, she's done it before. I actually envision her goin to a strip club and having to be Destiney with the -ey because Destiny was taken. The early favorite of the people is clearly Megan. She is the hottest. She won Beauty and the Geek on MTV though. That signals RED FLAG to the Floss. She is clearly a reality TV cunt not in it for the right reasons. Bret will see this and get her out earlier than people believe. The only reason he keeps her a long time is because she seems the most sane and is gorgeous. The worst girl on the show is by far Ambre. She thinks that this show is the goddamn Bachelor. It isn't, to win Bret Michaels heart, you don't try and be classy. You need to be slutty. Bret went classy in season one and look how that went for him. He wants sluttier this time around. Daisy is another early front runner because she has a bangin body and some tattoos. Bret digs tattoos and will keep her around a while. She does define butterfact though. The girl with no chance is most definitely Angelique. She is the French girl who can't speaky no English. She was the first girl to show her boobs, which prompted the line of the night from Bret Michaels, "The first set of boobs is like a trailblazer, like Lewis and Clark". That is sheer brilliance from the MAN. Two girls that went home who were great last night were Erin and Sara. Erin was the black girl with the afro. She was a VIP girl that went home on night one because of her profound intelligence. She had another one of the better lines of the night, "I learn a lot about what's going on with the World through MySpace". Seriously, she should have just screamed that she had skeletons in her closet. The other girl who went out guns a blazin was Sara. When she got there, she immediately realized that the season 2 girls were way way hotter than season one and that she was probably 18, 19, or 20 on the hottness power rankings. So she decided to get blackout drunk and not make the elimination. Her family was not pleased to watch the season premier last night. Bret also had some great lines to the girls last night. He finds one thing about the girl and says it makes him real hot for her. I hope next week this may happen, "Man, she has 6 toes on one foot thats hot, I love sucking toes and 11 is always better than 10". I just can't wait for next week, it's going to be awesome again. Sidenote: This upcoming weekend I hope I get drunk enough to drop the "I just want to kiss your face" line. I figure nothing else works, maybe if I'm drunk and she's drunk and a Bret Michaels fan, this can work. The only tough thing is, Bret and I don't have much in common except that we both love the Steelers.

FUCK YOU ROY HIBBERT

Tonight is a huge game for the Pitt Panthers. I hate Roy Hibbert with a passion. He owned Aaron Gray way too many times. Tonight he is going to get owned by a 6'6 C, Dejuan Blair. If the refs keep Blair out of foul trouble, he should have a big game tonight. Pitt is really good at home and Sam Young is playing way too good right now. We are going to win tonight. Matchup wise it's going to be tough. They are a lot bigger than us, but the home crowd should be awesome. Rumor has it that Terrelle Pryor is coming to the game tonight. I am fully aware it is probably because it is a big game and nationally televised. He is coming with 2 Pitt basketball recruits as well, Lamar Patterson and Zeke Marshall. There is also a rumor that he recently met with Jamie Dixon and Uncle Dave. Shady committed last year at the Georgetown game, coincidence, I think not. As far as the game at hand, I'm saying Blair with 15 and 15, Young drops 20+ again, Benji puts in 10, Ramon hits a game clinching 3, and Mcghee gives 7 to 8 quality minutes with 4 points and 4 boards.

PI-TT

Big home game today for the Panthers. We went 1-1 on the road to start up conference play. I for one, expected that start before the year started. Road Big East wins are very hard to come by. Today we take on the New Jersey Butt Pirates at the Pete. When talking about the state of Pitt basketball with a friend recently, he summed the season up for me quite simply. "This team will definitely make the tournament, they are good and they are REAL good at home". This was a fact that I knew was true, but someone other than myself saying it, it just sounded perfect. This Pitt basketball team with injuries is still a top 20 team and I will go out on a limb and say they are TOP 10 at home. Everyone is better at home in college basketball, but Pitt is REAL good at home. It makes sense, but all the players shoot the ball like they are shooting into an ocean. We score more at home and the crowd helps our defense. The Butt Pirates are one of the Big East bottom feeders, and Pitt will show them what the hell is up today. It's Saturday morning and I'm still riding a buzz, but I smell Monday upset. Today though, no problem for the Panthers. Pitt beats the New Jersey Butt Pirates and wins the AJ Alexander sweepstakes. What a weekend.

EVERY ROSE HAS ITS THORN

I knew I was going to write an update today covering the Pitt basketball team and the new Rock of Love premiering Sunday night at 9. Bret Michaels would be proud that I am using his song lyrics to describe the Pitt basketball team. The Floss has been lacking in creative titles lately, but this title fits the Pitt team perfectly. Last night during the Pitt-South Florida game, TNT was symbolically showing the movie "The Replacements". The thorns of Pitt's basketball team the past 3 years have been more often than not 3 players, Keith Benjamin, Sam Young, and Tyrell "not so" Biggs. Keith Benjamin has given sub par bench minutes for most of his career and he really hasn't had a high point in his career until now. He is averaging 18 points per game and over 30 minutes since entering the Pitt lineup. Sam Young was the "black hole" of the Pitt offense last year. Once you gave him the ball, you weren't getting it back. Understandably, he was just trying to make a push at more minutes over garbage man Levon Kendall last season. Now he is having the best year of his career averaging over 18 points a game. He has developed his jumper and his driving game to a nice level. If he continues to improve, he could be scary good. The final thorn who is still quite thorn-like is Tyrell "not so" Biggs. Biggs has finally started to go into the paint lately. It seems that Coach Dixon(might as well be the White Rose) finally just told him that he is not a shooting guard. Although Biggs still thinks he has a polished jump shot, he has finally put his 6'8 250 lb frame into the lane. In the last three games, he has got offensive rebounds, put backs, and finally some points in the paint. Dixon gave him the mantra they give big kids in 3rd grade, "See, isn't it easier to make layups than 3 pointers". Seriously they should have this conversation daily.

Some other thoughts from last nights win:

Gary Mghee playing his first meaningful minutes of the year. He played awesome in limited minutes. He scored 6 points and had a handful of rebounds. Mghee proved that he can play serious minutes if Blair goes into foul trouble. What was more impressive was how well he plays on defense. He moves his feet exceptionally for his size. Wish we had Cassin Diggs scholly for DeAndre Kane or Travon Woodalls.

Ronald Ramon is still a thorn on this rose. His defense is not too bad, but his offense and ball handling leave a ton to be desired. I still am confident that he will get his 3 point stroke back and will probably win us a game this season. He will still go down as one of my favorite Pitt players.

BRET'S BACK

Rock of Love 2 is back this Sunday at 9. Woo hoo. Rock of Love is better than Tila. I am thoroughly pumped for Bret to be back on TV. I don't know much about the cast for the show and I want to be surprised on Sunday, so there isn't much of a preview to talk about. All I know is with Bret being the man that he is, I hope that at least 66.666666% of the cast has stripped or is currently stripping somewhere.

Thirsty Thursday is dedicated to strippers and Bret Michaels

NEW SEXY SIDELINE REPORTER

While I was watching the WVU game, I noticed a new sideline reporter and I just wanted to give her a little love Floss style. Her name is Laura Okmin. She works for FOX Sports Net and actually has a background covering sports. Since she works for the worst network on TV, here's to hoping she gets snagged up by a major network such as CBS or ABC. Sorry for the picture, apparently she gets all of her sexy ones removed from the internet. Shits wizzzzeeeeeakkk.

AMERICAN GLADIATORS BROTHER

Much like the rest of the 18 to 30 demographic, I was tuned into American Gladiators. I was not overly excited for the return because I don't really expect much from NBC shows. NBC is the ho hum of the network tv world. ABC and CBS have the big name shows that get the viewers. FOX has came up with enough reality tv shows to be re run until global warming ruins the Earth(over 60 degrees on Jan. 7th) and have only had one succeed(American Idol). NBC just tries to fit in with their tv shows. They are like the 6 hitter in baseball lineups. They are the in between guy, sometimes they hit like an 8 hitter, sometimes like a 3 hitter. NBC can give some production, but can't be counted on to be the power 3 hitter or the stud cleanup hitter that ABC and CBS are. NBC did a good job of promo-ing American Gladiators. They did plenty of commercials during the 2 playoff football games Saturday. I'm going to break the show down into parts and throw out some ratings on the A through F-(only the Floss pulls that off) scale since it is back to school time.

HOSTS BROTHER

Hulkamania is back. He was miserable. I don't care what anyone says. He makes the show have a cheesy FOX feel. Maybe I pay to much attention to show value, but I get really frustrated with shows that give off that cheesy feel. I still love Tila, but I expect more from the networks. He said "dude" over 10 times last night. "Dude" would have been more relevant for the first American Gladiators in 1988 or BOF(Birth of the Floss). I might take heat for this, but Hulk was lame. He should focus on his divorce and his son.

Laila Ali was Hulk's sidekick for the show. NBC was smart to have a backup plan for when Hulk got old. She didn't appear it seemed until 20 minutes into the show, but she stole the show in my eyes. She should get more tv time and Hulk less. She was good not great, but next to Hulk anyone could do good.

Lets root that the season finale of American Gladiators will involve Laila and Hulk competing against the gladiators. This won't happen on NBC(ho hum), but FOX would put Simon Cowell out there for ratings.

FLOSS RATING: C-

CONTESTANTS BROTHER

I don't want to get too much into each contestant because they weren't that interesting. A NYC fireman won the first event. NYC firemen is always the good guy. Since 9/11, NYC firemen and policemen are everyone's favorite people(deservedly so). He dominated the whole competition. I can't imagine NBC was too happy about his 16.5 second lead going into the Gauntlet. Sidenote: The half second for every point you are up is a bullshit way to do the whole show. Anthony completely dominated 3 events and should have all but been handed the Gauntlet. He was almost screwed by the dumb rules. The women in the first competition was interesting because the first girl apparently tore her ACL in the first competition, so they brought in the Venus Flytrap(Floss Nickname). She made a valiant effort to eventually defeat Koya the Destroya(Fans Nickname) in the Gauntlet. These chicks sucked and neither could win the whole thing. The next show had two "dudes" that were less than stellar brother. Molivann was a 5'8 155 pound little guy who ended up beating a washed up guy who was stuck in traffic 14 years earlier on his way to an audition. I know Pittsburgh traffic isn't exactly LA traffic, but really with such a big opportunity, how could you let traffic interfere. The only thing I took from the girls competition was the legitimate shot that the winner of the girls challenge has at being a real live American Gladiator. Bonnie, a retired Marine, looked and played the part of an American Gladiator. Look for her to win this thing.

My problem with their selection of the contestants is that none of them were physically imposing like the Gladiators. Apparently the Gladiators are allowed the juice, but the contestants aren't. It just isn't as competitive this way. Another problem I had is how they picked everyone with cheesy background stories. This show isn't for the single mothers of the World. The real audience of the show doesn't give a flying F about their kids or life profession(unless they played pro football or another sport).

FLOSS RATING: C

GLADIATORS BROTHER

The gladiators overall performed poorly. When I imagine American Gladiators, I expect sheer domination. They lacked that "holy shit, they're GOOD" factor(see '07 New England Patriots). They didn't have that, not anywhere near total domination. They should have beat the crap out of their smaller counterparts. Plus, they all looked like they were on 'roids. Act like your on 'roids. I also blame NBC for not giving Justice(6'8 290) more publicity on the show. His only competition, he shot a gun from a pedestal. In that competition, they should have used Jimmy, a deer hunter from PA who had about 12 PBR's(Pabst Blue Ribbons) in his system. He woulda picked off both those fools. I will give out some MVP's for the Gladiators. For the men, it was Wolf. He was cool and actually gave a shit. He has good show value. I will also give props to Toa because he has a cool look and gimmick about him. For the women it was an easy choice, Crush. She has looks and skill. She is legitimately good looking and not that intimidating on the outside. Then on the show, she was a fiery competitor who did better than the other girls. Good job to her. She will most definitely get a Playboy offer, take that to the bank.

FLOSS RATING: B-

EVENTS BROTHER

This is where NBC really messed up. Not nearly enough new competitions, no creativity, no real excitement, just nothing really. They kept a lot of the old school stuff and put in minor twists. 20 years has passed, they could have done better. The Pyramid competition is nearly impossible for the contestant, way too tough. If the gladiator is the superior athlete, how hard is it for them to just throw them back down the pyramid. The rock climbing wall competition is dumb as well as the rings competition. Assault, the gun challenge is really flippin' dumb. The Hit and Run challenge was the talk of the town yesterday for how easy it was. The gladiators are basically isolated in this competition as they throw balloons at the competitors. If you army crawl the whole way, you won't lose. There were some good events, Joust is an old favorite. Earthquake actually puts strength into question and is pretty cool. Gauntlet is pretty cool because it is another physically demanding challenge. My favorite competition is Power Ball because it encompasses speed, quickness, strength, agility, athleticism, basically everything good. Overall they just lacked creativity, which was painfully disappointing.

FLOSS RATING: C-

OVERALL BROTHER

Well brother, American Gladiators is here, but it will not be staying long. This show's ratings will drop soon and plummet far down eventually. NBC ultimately choked on this show because of how much buildup it had. The show failed in giving the show a real makeover. It had most of the same events and didn't have enough changes. I like the gimmicks that some of the gladiators have, that can be built on and help the show. Hiring Hulkamania was a huge mistake for this show. They need to get some former football players on this show to get some interest and America talking. Do you know how I know it didn't succeed? Because if it was a hit, ESPN would have at least given a 30 second clip to the show. That was my litmus test for American Gladiators. NBC would be well advised to sell its idea to SPIKETV or VERSUS. Those networks wouldn't have the budget, so bye bye Hulk and maybe Laila, but it would be much less bullshit. Those networks would bring the Gladiators back into it. While SPIKE is at it, they should bring back SlamBall.

FLOSS RATING: C

The story of mostly everything NBC does, it was just average. Have fun in the 6 hole NBC.

PITT FOOTBALL RECRUITING UPDATE(LONG)

When I last updated on Pitt football recruiting and gave my top 10, the date was November 15th. A lot has happened since then. The Brawl victory coupled with the committment of Killa Cam Saddler, Shayne Hale and Jonathan Baldwin, it has been good times for Panther fans. I feel that this is Uncle Dave's best class, but I could say that any year. It is a small class, but it packs a major punch. Pitt is in a scholarship crunch year because they have taken around 50 kids the last 2 years and don't boot kids from the program early(Texas). The Panther class seems full, but Pitt is still inviting a ton of players to this weekends basketball game versus Seton Hall. To update you on where we stand I will briefly list the Pitt commitments, position, and star average between rivals and scout(since Bob Pitt Lichtenfels most certainly bumps Pitt Panthers).



Already enrolled and ready for spring ball:



Greg Cross JUCO QB *** and a half stars

Robb Houser JUCO C ***

Ronald Hobby WR/DB ***



Committed not yet signed



Jonathan Baldwin WR ****

Tino Sunseri QB ***

Zack Stoudt QB ***

Cameron Saddler WR ****

Kevin Harper K ***

Chris Burns RB ****

Mike Cruz TE/DL ***

Lucas Nix OT *****

Antwuan Reed CB 3 and a half

Mike Shanahan WR 2 and a half

Ryan Turnley OL 2 and a half

Manny Williams LB/S ***

Shayne Hale MLB 4 and a half



For those of you who can't count, that is 16 commitments. Pitt is rumored to have at least one spot left with as many as 4 spots left for more players. Out of the Floss' top 10 gets from November 15th, Pitt has nabbed only no. 1, 7, 8, and 10. However, Shayne Hale would have been number 2 on that list had he actually shown interest. The others on that list you ask, no. 2 and 3 were LB's Steve Gardiner and Doug Rippy. They would each have not been so high had Hale been involved. Rippy made a weird choice with Colorado, and the Big 11 called Gardiner with a greyshirt offer from OSU. A 4 star LB prospect is really going to settle with that offer probably. I wish he would come here. However, can't hate a kid for going to his favorite school. He is taking an official here this weekend, Uncle Dave might be able to sell him. No. 4 on the list was Hubie Graham, TE from Scranton. He chose the Fighting Illini. Kind of a surprising pick, but after watching Nate Byham not get thrown the ball and Illinois turning into a B11 power, I don't blame him. No. 5 was Averin Collier, he wants to play running back so he went to Syracuse. I can't blame a kid for staying close to home, but 'Cuse is in terrible shape. At least Pitt is sticking by there underproducing coach that brings in recruits. GRob at 'Cuse isn't going to last there long. No. 6 was Jarred Holley, he is still open on his recruitment with Pitt being the leader currently. His top 3 are Pitt, Iowa, and Virginia. Never will we lose a kid to Iowa, but UVA is scary. If he visits UVA it will be hard to keep him a Pitt lean. I still think we get another 4 star corner, booyah. No. 9 was Terrelle Pryor, he has done good not bashing Pitt in the media, but he should just bash them once and for all. I feel bad that he has all this pressure to stay close to home and play for the Panthers. No way he comes here. I just hope he doesn't go play for DickRod at scUM. Seriously, I hope Michigan never wins another game in the B11. I HATE Rich Rodriguez. I will be a Penn St. homer before I root for that jerkoff.



Tomorrow for the Seton Hall game, Pitt has visits lined up for 9 uncommitted players to visit campus. I will break them down into categories on their chance of getting a remaining ship.



WE WILL LET YOU SLEEP WITH ERICA NICKELS IF YOU COME TO PITT:

AJ Alexander: He is the only one in this heralded group. This kid plays at a loaded position, but I don't care. He ran a 4.31 40 twice this past summer. As Uncle Dave says, "we run faster".

Steve Gardiner: With Dorin moving to TE, LB is more of a need position. This kid had 140 tackles this season. He was the 3rd fastest player at the Pitt combine this summer. I sure hope Uncle Dave can pull this out.

WHY ARE YOU EVEN COMING HERE?:

Vaughan Carraway: He is a stud WR, and would give us another top WR in the state of PA. He is a very solid prospect and could fill out to an OLB(gasp). I think he may be too good to pass up somehow.



GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES, BEG, AND YOU CAN PROBABLY GET A SHIP:

Isaiah Pead: Solid corner prospect. Division 3 POY in Ohio. This kid is probably the backup plan to Holley, but I really like this kid as a prospect. I feel he could really help the team. I think he will end up at WVU. He was originally committed there. Indiana has an outside shot b/c they are in the B11.

Danny Vaughan: I think of him as a Danny. He can play DE or TE. I didn't think he was very good until I watched him play on TV in the state title game. He really needs to commit quick. If he commits, Pead, Carraway, and maybe even Gardiner don't have ships.

WHY IS WANNY TAKING YOU TO DAVE AND BUSTERS?:

Dominick Britt: I think he could have a scholarship if Stoudt decommits for Louisville. I would not be happy about taking him as a 3rd QB. He is a hell of a prospect because of his size. In a year with 25 ships, he would definitely get one.

Justin Virbitsky: With Cruz committing and Vaughan being higher on the list, his visit makes no sense. He has virtually no offers. I really can't believe we are letting him visit.

Joe Trebitz and Jeff Hutchinson: Both are one star prospects from Florida. They are the most expensive official visits. These 2 have no chance at a scholarship. It's a numbers game gentlemen. Enjoy all the free shit though.

Basically, where Pitt stands now is a good spot. This is the first year Wanny really has to worry about scholarship numbers, so I hope he handles it like a pro. It is tough to tell kids no, but he might have to tell a lot of them no. Really it is their fault. In todays World of recruiting, why wouldn't you commit really early? If you are a borderline prospect that might only get 2 to 3 BCS offers, why not commit early? Coaches will still recruit you and you can always de-commit. De-committing isn't even a big deal any more. Just don't ever de-commit without a backup plan. If Ryan Turnley or Ronald Hobby waited to visit now, they would be in the same boat as Danny Vaughan.

Now at 16 scholarships, we have 4 maximum spots left. I think we will fill all 4 spots. Who do I think those 4 will be? I think it will be AJ Alexander, as early as Monday. Penn St. sucked with Alexander. I have no idea why they didn't recruit him harder. Probably their arrogance that they would get Deion Walker. I sure as hell hope Kenny Tate goes elsewhere. Jarred Holley will be a kid that commits soon or LOI day. Sidenote, how bad does he suck at playing the recruiting game? He is the only kid who really seems he doesn't care where he goes to school. He better love Pitt considering he doesn't even want to check out UVA. The last 2 spots I believe going to Josh Jenkins and Vaughan. I said it, Jenkins will be a Panther. This would honestly be one of Uncle Dave's most impressive gets, considering his ranking, position, and where he is from. I know OSU is the leader, but I'm betting on Wanny. He is going to come to campus on January 18th. Dave is going to introduce him to the new O-Line coach Tony Wise. Wise will in turn tell him about how he will get him to the NFL. Jenkins will talk to Luke Nix and JB. He will realize early playing time and the programs upandcomingness(great word), and fall in love with Oakland. The last spot, I'm going to say Danny Vaughan. He is the safe pick. I don't know if Danny will end up with the last spot, but I hope so because Danny Vaughan has a cool name and keeps the pipeline going. I wouldn't mind if Tags took his place either, although he is held up on Louisville. I have no idea why anyone would go to Louisville, it is a shitty shitty city. Of course I'm going to hold out hope that Pryor ends up at Pitt. The only way this probably happens is if he gets arrested or some kind of huge life altering event that keeps him in Pittsburgh. I for one am rooting for this to happen.

Prediction for 2008 record, 10-2 with a BCS bowl loss.

THE MIGHTY LEOPARDS

First off, Happy New Year, as the "GREAT '08" is upon us. I wanted to give a preview of tonight's Pitt vs. Lafayette game at the Pete. Usually, the last non-conference game for the Panthers is a meaningless win, and we all know where the team stands. This year it is quite different. With the recent injuries to Cookie and Fields, the Pitt team is left very depleted at guard. I have no idea how the team will fare tonight, I can't even give a prediction on how they will do. All I know is that if Ronald Ramon needs to get out of his senior year slump. He should call up Julius Page and do exactly the opposite of what JP1 did for a whole year. Wannamaker, the Floss is calling for you to be big. I will reserve judgement on what this team can or cannot do. As for a prediction, I am going to go with the mascot theory. A panther could kick a leopard's ass. A panther would maul a leopard, and then procede to turn the said leopard into 14 pairs of women's underwear. I'm done.

WINTER CLASSIC

Much has been said about the resurgence of the NBA lately, but hopefully the NHL will make a comeback too. Yesterday's hockey game had even my mom excited. The ice conditions were terrible which made the hockey less attractive, but everything else about the game was superb. NBC brought out big time announcers, national television, and they put the game's biggest star center stage. I bet NBC was pleased to say the least with Crosby netting the game winner in a shootout. The NHL gets a big A+ from the Floss for what they did yesterday.

LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS

The West Virginia Mountaineer's will play in the Fiesta Bowl tonight against the Oklahoma Sooners. I am rooting for the Big East in this one. The Big East has been an incredible disappointment so far in bowl games, going 1-2 with its only win coming against Southern Miss. South Florida really layed the ultimate egg on New Year's Eve after losing by 35 points to Dennis Dixonless Oregon. I am rooting for WVU and not turning my back. I don't know if I will watch the game because physically it is impossible to actually root for those thugs. I also hope Steve Slaton rushes for 400 yards and declares for the NFL draft, same for Patsy White. Normally I would hope for a 2 year injury to Noel Devine, but I know all of the kids and trouble he can get into in one offseason. The line in the football game is only 6.5 points to the Mountaineers, which is ironically the same line as the over/under for Devine arrests this summer.
