Virginia Tech Winning the ACC Championship: Priceless
Zidane’s Grand Exit
Zinedine Zidane will be remembered for his passion for the game, his ability to bring his team together, the salvage he performed on the French World Cup 2006 team, and most of all a headbutt. This doesn’t ruin his whole life or the fact that he had one of the best careers a footballer could have. Yet, it tarnishes what could have been the brightest star France has ever had. I know there are all sorts of experts that are reading Materazzi’s lips and that Materazzi has released a statement revealing exactly what he said to the Frenchman. Yet, I can’t help but think of how many times something has been said to me and I just ignore it and move on.
Marcus Vick’s Wild Ride
People that regularly read this site know that I go to Virginia Tech. People that keep up with Virginia Tech know that Marcus Vick, Michael Vick’s little brother, also goes (went) to Virgina Tech. Recently Marcus Vick was kicked off the team after intentionally stepping on an opposing player’s leg, I have to competely and whole heartedly agree with Vick being “dismissed”. All of his actions reflect upon Virginia Tech and therefore the majority of people think that we are the same as Vick.
Well a few days after being dismissed from the team, news comes about that he was arrested on firearms charges. I believe Virginia Tech’s administration did what they needed to do, maybe not as early as they should have, but better late then never.
Ten Quarters of Perfect Defense
So, we beat Georgia Tech fifty-one to seven. That marks the end of our perfect defense streak. We ended up with 10 perfect defense quarters. Georgia Tech made tons of mistakes, making it way too easy for us.
The final score was 51-7.
The Ball Was Intercepted
After multiple interceptions we managed to beat Ohio, forty-five to nothing. Hmm, I am noticing a pattern here…
The final score was 45-0.
