Let's take out some rage, after the jump...

Non-Metallica Pump-up Song of the Week

I heard this mix when I was in middle school. I instantly became the coolest kid in town.

------------------------------

Well, I think the Northerner summed up just about everything from the Debacle at Danny Snider’s. But just a few more thoughts before we never, ever think of this game again:

  • Obviously, our O-line is just anemic. WHAT THE HELL DID THEY DO IN THE OFFSEASON? Like, do they know the rules of football?
  • D.J. Coles is dead to me. He should have been cut on the sidelines immediately after he got like 6 penalties on one play. He gave Boise State 7 points, and there’s no two ways about it.
  • Yeah, Tyrod completed a lot of his passes, but he under-threw EVERYONE. Receivers either made great adjustments or earned a pass interference penalty, so he was bailed out. That is until our last… ummm… “drive”, when he missed guys by ten yards.
  • I know the N said it, but I have to state it again: our 2-minute defense is non-existent. Did anyone not think Boise would score on their last drive? I know I did. I was preparing myself to see a wide open receiver catch a devastating touchdown. 15 years of Hokie football teaches you things.
  • I had my first experience with the Pittsburgh alumni chapter, and they are freaking awesome. Big thanks to Heather, who missed three touchdowns because she was in the restroom. She went of her own accord the first time. The other two were “suggested” by the crowd at the bar. Superstition is responsible for more touchdowns than our play calling.
  • Speaking of play calling, it looks like it’s going to be another long year in the red zone. We may have scored 30 points, but Voldemort is still clearly running this offense.
  • Going for two in the 3rd quarter… remember 5 seconds before that when we had all the momentum?

That’s all I’ve got. Eff that game. Eff the Broncos. Eff FedEx. Eff Emilio Estevez. But more importantly, eff…

JMU!!

You see the best part of HateFest is how pissed off the little guys get. That makes these shit games all the more interesting. Let’s take a look at some of the comments about our JMU HateFest entry…

Is a VA Tech Grad really mocking JMU's academic standards? Thats like a JMU Grad mocking an Ivy League school.
Hating on are [sic] girls? Sucks being a VA Tech student having to travel 2 and a half hours north just to get a glimpse of an attractive woman.

Name writes…

Did you know that JMU has the only Division 1 football championship in the state of Virginia?

Are these worth a response? Absolutely…

Here’s hoping that, just for these poor saps, Tech wins by 100. JMU’s best win is almost beating Maryland. A Maryland team that finished with 2 wins all year.

------------------------------

The Bad Guys

Who the hell cares? JMU might be the first safety school for academics AND for football.

Know Your Duke Douche

Griff Yancey

Griff… Awww yeah! Badass first name! I bet this guy is freaking awesome

Yancey… Oh, nevermind.

Also, he had three tackles against Liberty. So there ya go.

------------------------------

The Good Guys

Ever miss an easy putt, walk briskly to the next tee, then CRUSH a 300 yard drive because you were so pissed off? We’re about to put the Fighting Grimace’s right down the middle of the fairway.

There’s no way these guys aren’t pissed off. The defense gave up 33 points*. They will be out for blood.

*Disclaimer: We blame at least 17 of those on the offense / DJ “No One Likes You” Coles.

The offensive line better drink a Red Bull or two before kickoff, or else it’s going to be a frustrating day. I mean, we’ll still win by a ton, but we won’t look as good as we should.

------------------------------

The Game

And why are we going to win by a ton? Cuz this game is stupid. There’s no reason we have to play this game while the NCAA claims there’s not enough time for a playoff. At least we have the HateFest “love” to motivate us, though.

RMFW Shirt Sighting of the Week

rmfw_leigh

Avid reader Leigh sends in this picture of her tailgating with... WINE!?!?!? O.M.F.G.... Someone out there has to do better than this.

For all those rocking the shirt, send us a picture and we’ll pick a winner each week. What will the winner receive? Their picture on a low-level Virginia Tech football blog and a shirt they already paid for. Hugs are also possible.

Replacement Offensive Coordinator of the Week

We’re really sad that the Young Guns didn’t come through. We had “Regulators” ready to roll as the pump up song of the week.

So where do we turn for this Saturday’s scrimmage? We can’t overdo it, but we need to create a good match-up.

So to combat the Grimace-style colors the Dukes have adopted, we’re going with a man that will always hold rank over these posers…

Mayor McCheese

He’s setting up to run for the House of Delegates.

Let’s take care of these bitches in the first quarter. Maybe we can skip halftime so we don’t have to listen to their shit ass band.

 

LET’S GO HOKIES!!!
