Twice this year I have written in a BLOG about how WVU was going to beat their opponents this year in football. One was the Syracuse BLOG which we managed to lose that game 23-49 and then this past Friday I did it again when referring to Louisville and we lost yesterday 35-38.
Dear Dana Holgorsen, how am I supposed to trash talk inferior opponents that we have been favored to beat by two scores when you can't seem to beat them? Come on coach, if you were better prepared (and didn't make a statement that you invite the pressure) maybe we could win one of these games. Something tells me you're about to lose an already fickle but over expecting fan base. Bob Huggins is from Morgantown, an Alumnus, lead us to the Final 4 and has been named the Coach of the Year before. He has the history and fan support to allow for games like Friday night, you on the other hand are a first year cocky coach who can't say "you know" enough in interviews and do not enjoy the leeway that Coach Huggins has earned.
Here is my advice to you:
1.) It's a simple game. All you have to do is move the sticks. When you are playing sisters of the poor that home run ball works more often, but as the weather gets colder (you didn't have that element in Texas) you have to understand this simple concept. Move the sticks, get a fresh set of downs.
2.) Special teams. They have cost you in all three losses this year, especially yesterdays game. That blocked Field Goal for a Touchdown alone was a 10 point swing. This was the fourth opponent this year we have given a special teams touchdown to (Marshall Punt Return, LSU Kickoff Return, Syracuse Kickoff Return and Louisville Blocked Field goal for a Touchdown) this season. We have lost 3 out of those four games. We had a punter that had an 11 and 12 yard punt. This is after we benched the first punter who had two in a row like this. You should be able to go to any Jr High school and find the average kid in any Phys Ed class that can consistently beat this. Why can't a Div 1 Football school with a well paid coach find one that can do this? Let's not forget the missed chip shot field goal either because Geno rushed third down at the end of the third quarter to throw an uncatchable fade pass.
3.) Defense. I understand they have lost a lot of players, however when they give the offense a gift and they can't capitalize on it, that is the problem. If someone would teach these guys there very simple principals of tackling instead of trying to blow someone up, we may very well be undefeated right now.
4.) Energy. It's your job as the head Coach, you're the one making the big salary, to have these guys ready. What are you doing in the locker room if anything? What ever it is, it's not working. Find a solution.
Have a great day.

Saturday Morning Ramblings
A little later this morning than I usually post, Michelle and I are both already up and have made breakfast and are planning on what we are going to do for the day. The Mountaineers play at noon and I think we're going to make a trip to Sam's club this morning when they open up to do some of our weekly shopping.
I had to come home from work yesterday early, I thought I had the start of kidney stones or something along those lines. I was actually in a lot of pain, I had went in with all intentions of working out but never made it to the gym. I took a trip to the OHU (Occupational health Unit) and they checked my urine and it came back fine, so I went to WVU urgent care to get looked at and I have to say I left that place less than impressed. Dr wrote a couple prescriptions for a muscle relaxer and a narcotic for pain, and never even looked at my back. I'm not a junkie looking for a quick fix so needless to say I wasn't looking for nor do I have any intentions in getting either of those prescriptions filled. I can deal with the pain, I just wanted to make sure there is not an underlying medical issue causing this.
I have to say that I find it ironic that Urgent care has a sign out front that says they do not prescribe pain killers or refills for pain killers and the quack that saw me did not even look at me and wrote out two prescriptions. His diagnosis without even looking was generalized back pain. No shit Sherlock, please tell me you did not graduate from West Virginia University Medical School, there was no one else there and you seemed to be more preoccupied with the sports page than your The Hippocratic Oath. At least the Nurse at OHU did a urine test ton test for blood (everything came out normal). What a quack.
Anyways, good news is Chad has got a job now with Xerox. He'll be starting not this Monday but the following Monday in Cleveland on a job working with his cousin Jonny for a month or so on that job, then they will get him something local. Michelle and I went out last night and bought him some business causal attire to work in. It's actually a VERY good job, it's the chance off a lifetime for him, I just hope he makes the best out of it and builds on this opportunity.
Have a great Saturday and Let's Go Mountaineers.

Big Ole Hairy Friday
Looking for some High School Football? The Morgantown High Mohigans close out their regular season tonight when they travel Brooke to play the Brooke Bruins. Out in Blacksville Clay Battelle tries to register their ninth win of the season when they play host to Madonna.
The Mountaineers play host to the Looneyville (yes I spelled that correctly judging on how their fans have been acting this week) Cardinals tomorrow at noon on ESPN 3. I hope Geno and company light up the scoreboard and send the couple whiny Looneyville fans that are going to show up for the game home disappointed.
Some of you might want to note that you will get an extra hour of sleep this weekend as we will set the clocks back Saturday Night/Sunday Morning. So the weekend will be an extra hour longer that normal.

Photo Flashback Thursday
Once a week I like to take a little bit of time out and look through all of the digital images that I have. Some have been scanned and some have came from digital photos. I like to select just one, and recall the picture a little bit in my BLOG.
Today's picture is of my sister Terri's three kids Val, Amy and Bub. This is the earliest picture that I know of of the three of them, and Terri used (may still) have a pig picture that hung in her home of this image. As I recall it was embedded on a frame to look something like a block of wood from a tree.
My guess is that this picture was taken not too long after Bub aka RJ was born, hence my assumption that this may be the first picture taken of the three of them.
They were (and still are) some cute and lovable kids.

Cured Foundation
Cured Foundation
My niece Amy has really taken to this cause, mainly because her Sister in Law's son (her and Ralph's nephew) suffers from this.
In a Repost of her facebook:
**PLEASE READ..Reposted from Sara Dalton**
**This is not a chain letter of any type, PLEASE take a minute to read!!**
Dear Friends,
As many of you know, my child Hunter age:2 , suffers
from a rare autoimmune disease called Eosinophilic Esophagitis ("EE"). Kids
with EE are quite literally allergic to food. The proteins in food cause a build up in the digestive tract and blood of a white blood cell called an
eosinophil.Eosinophils are meant to attack parasites, but the body of a child with EE
mistakes food for a parasite. As a result, the build up of eosinophils
cause numerous and very serious health problems, including, failure to grow
and thrive, uncontrollable vomiting, severe stomach and throat pain,
inability to sleep, joint pain, just to name a few. Many kids with EE can only eat
1 or 2 foods and have a feeding tube to survive. CURED is a charity that I
am actively involved with that raises money to find a cure for EE. CURED has
donated over $2 million to research over the past 6 years. CURED has begun
a $1 challenge. We are looking to find 500,000 people to each donate $1 or
more to CURED, since that is something that almost everyone can do in
these hard economic times. If you are interested in donating, please write
Hunter Friend on your donation and mail it to CURED at P.O. Box 32,
Lincolnshire, IL 60069. or go to www.curedfoundation.org and make a donation
via pay pal. Furthermore, if you wish to go even a step further, please forward this email to your family and friends. The more we get the word out there, the more
likely it will be that we will reach our goal. Thanks for your help!!! Happy Holidays!!
She has mentioned about trying to organize a benefit for this this spring. OK Readers, any suggestions?

Hump Day
I was sitting around and thinking last night, we're already in the month of November. I mean Summer is long gone, we've already seen the first snow of the season and I've started warming the car up in the mornings. The trees have lost most of their leaves and days are getting shorter and shorter. heck we are just a few days from setting our clocks back an hour and getting an extra hour of sleep this coming weekend.
I miss the spring time, the time of a dawn of summer and warm weather. I guess this is just the weather I am going to have to get used to over the course of the next six or so months. Yuck.
With the days getting shorter and the weather getting colder, I guess I could start to get ready for the Holiday Season and Michelle's Christmas cookies that are probably a month or so away.

Tuesday's Tidbits
* Well Monday is finally behind us and we are now looking straight down the barrel of a Tuesday, can't think of a better reason than that to do a tidbits.
* It's been 1,327 days since mine and Michelle's first date.
* 550 Days since our engagement.
* 87th day of marital bliss.
* 54 more shopping days left until Christmas.
* Unfortunately we did not make it to Jean's yesterday for Trick or Treat, Michelle who has been sick for the last week came home sick yesterday and we didn't want to infect anyone she may come into contact with.
* West Virginia University is suing the Big East to avoid the 27 month exit time frame in a legal attempt to allow us to join the Big 12 for the 2012 season.
* I'm waiting to see some family pictures from last night, I can't remember the last time I was not at East Gate Manor for Halloween.

Happy Halloween
It's time for Trick or Treating again, and once again we will be going to Jean's to be handing out candy to usually between 3-400 trick or treaters on an average year. I will once again be on hand and try to get as many photos as I can of the evening.
On a side note, Michelle is finally starting to feel better, I guess seeing the Steelers beat the heck out of New England yesterday was a good cure for the cold.

Sunday Morning Rumblings
I am sitting here in a quiet house once again, in the early AM and not a creature stirring in the house. Just watched Love and Other Drugs on HBO (Great Movie) and am now watching Jerry Maguire on Encore.
A special thank you to the my brother Gary, the best brother in the world for coming over yesterday and changing the rear brakes on the Taurus for me. I can do front brakes, but I have only watched the rear brakes get done once and that was the best brother in law in the World 20 years ago. There is always Youtube, but I would prefer to have someone who knows what they are doing rather than me guessing.
Michelle is starting to feel a little better, but broken foot and all she is still under the weather. She has been pounding the vitamin C over the weekend and getting plenty of rest.
Todays agenda is grocery shopping and watching the Pittsburgh Steelers play this afternoon.
Have I ever mentioned I hate snow?

Saturday Morning Tidbits
* I usually do this on Tuesday, but I have a few things that I wan to touch on this morning.
* First of congratulations to the Morgantown High Mohigans for winning the MoHawk Bowl yesterday evening 49-27. Way to go Mphigans.
* The Big news of yesterday however broke yesterday morning and was actually almost news earlier in the week.West Virginia University would be leaving the Big East and Officially joining the Big 12 on July 1, 2012. It ended a few months of speculation by the Mountaineer nation. After Pitt and Syracuse announced they would be leaving the Big East for the ACC, the Mountaineers flirted with the SEC initially and later with the Big 12 where we were finally given an official invitation yesterday.
* Speaking of the Mountaineers, who will be leaving for the Big 12 next season, we will be losing many of our traditional rivalries. Today at 3:30, may be the last game between WVU and Rutgers in a Nationally broadcast game at 3:30 on ABC.
* OK, I'm already tired of the cold weather, the snow and the shorter days. Cam we do a repeat starting at about Spring? Not a big fan of the snow.
* Have a Great day and Go Mountaineers.

Looking for a little bit of High School Football? Well tonight is the night, the night when the Morgantown High Mohigans travel across town to their rival University High Hawks to take part in the yearly MoHawk Bowl. I'm picking my alma mater to once again extend their series win streak in this rivalry, it should be a very good game. It was just a few short years ago this game was #1 vs #2 in at Mountaineer Field in front of 20,000 people. Those days however are long gone by, but it is still going to be a very good game tonight.
University High needs to win this one tonight to extend their season into the playoffs, a loss could mean the end of the season for UHS. Morgantown will be trying to gain and secure a first round playoff game at home.
Both teams will be playing for something tonight, should be an interesting game.

Photo Flashback Thursday
Once a week I like to take a little bit of time out to select one of my tens of thousands of digital photo's (not all porn believe it or not ...LOL) and select just one photo to just tell a little story about. It is one of my favorite BLOG's of the week.
This week, the honor goes to one of my oldest and dearest friends that goes all the way back to my High School days. It's on none other than Smitty "aka BIG DADDY (or silly daddy depending on how many beers he had has that night)).
This picture was taken five years ago, when John and his daughters Emily and Brittany (Not sure where Meg was that night) were attending a Morgantown High School Football game. Something John and I used to do together on a regular basis. This night was one however that we both showed up on the same night to watch the Mohigans, who by coincidence will be beating the University High Hawks tomorrow night in the MoHawk Bowl.

Like Sands in the Hourglass
As a die hard WVU fan, this season and our conference association has been nothing short of roller coaster ride. The season starts off with the Big East talking about adding Villanova and adding TCU. Pitt and Syracuse decide they have had enough and boot scoot to the ACC. TCU then spurns the Big East and accepts a Big 12 invite.
There were rumors a few weeks ago that West Virginia would be heading to the SEC, but that would all hinge on what Missouri was going to do. If they were going to stay in the Big 12, we were possibly the 14th team to go to the SEC. Missouri on the other hand is rumored to be first in line for the SEC over WVU, so things started to look bleak and that was before Syracuse schooled us last Friday Night.
Yesterday the rumors shifted to West Virginia going to the Big 12 to replace Missouri. Big East football as we have once known it, is quickly dying. If we leave, their BCS affiliation will be out the door. Stay tuned for any official announcements.

* Michelle is feeling under the weather once again, hopefully the 2000 MG of Vitamin C and the hot shower last night plus the electric blanket and hot tea will solve that problem today.
* A very Happy Birthday wish to Michelle's nephew Jon Paugh. He is 31 on this day.

Back To Work
Weekend is over and it's time to put our noses back on the grindstone and get back to doing what we do so we can enjoy our weekends.
It was almost a good football weekend, only the Mountaineer game on Friday evening was the only blemish, the Pittsburgh Steelers kicked the Arizona cardinals butts yesterday afternoon. You have to love Mike Wallace's 95 yard Touchdown reception.
Now it's back to the office, and back to work.

Sunday Morning Rumblings
Here I sit, early in the AM on a Sunday morning in a quiet house that has every other living creature sleeping. It is only I that is awake at this early hour. Rightfully so, because I was dead tired yesterday and kind of called it a day while the sun was still up in the air and the days daylight had yet to expire.
Michelle and I feeling a little bit of cabin fever yesterday afternoon took a drive just to get out of the house. Nothing major, I took her to Bruceton and through Rowlesburg and to Kingwood and back, as she had never been in the area. We tied stopping at Coopers Rock to see the changing of the leaves, but I guess we were not the only ones who had that idea on a nice Saturday afternoon because they were parking clear back by the pond, all the parking lots were full.
Today is going back to being a normal day, shopping this morning followed by a Steelers game later this afternoon. The weather has been cooling and the crock pot has been crying for us to make a batch of Chilli, so I just may answer that call today.
Have a great day.

Ouch
Wow talk about getting schooled, last night was one of the worst game that I can remember in some time. Syracuse beat our asses in every aspect of the game while rolling up a hard to watch 49-23 victory against us. It was probably the worst game I have seen this team play in a few years. Syracuse controlled the game clock and prevented us from getting off the field on 3rd down, absolutely atrocious special teams play and an offense that even though Syracuse was doing the same thing they did last year defensively, really made no adjustments to the blitzes.
Dana Holgorsen, welcome to smash mouth football and showing me last night that you really didn't have much experience with this type of game. When a team is blitzing like they were last night, you want to hang your QB in the pocket and let him get hit time after time.
Hands down to Syracuse, they won every aspect of the game and won all 4 quarters last night.

Big Ole Hairy Beat Syracuse Friday
Looking for some football? Mountaineers will put an ass whipping on the Syracuse Orangemen for revenge for our in last years game tonight at 8:00 on ESPN. This isn't last years teams and we are going to light it up tonight.
High school football on your mind? The Morgantown Mohigans are going to host John Marshall tonight at Pony Lewis, the Monarchs have not won yet this year and it's not going to happen tonight either. University High played at Preston last night and Clay Battelle travels to Tygarts Valley this evening.
I'll put a bold prediction and say by the time the clock strikes midnight tonight, the Hawks, Mohigans, Bee's and Mountaineers will all put one in the W column and none of them will be close. I am confident.

Photo Flashback Thursday
Once a week I take a little bit of time out and look through all of my tens of thousands digital images that I have stored and just select one image to write a blog about. This week is no different and I actually saw this picture earlier in the week and knew that this was the one I wanted to use.
This week's picture comes from the Spring of 2004. I was getting ready to graduate College and I was playing softball for Recourse. We had one heck of a team that year, but that is another story. I had a high school kid playing Right Field for me, he also played baseball locally at the High School level.
Today's picture is from a game he was pitching all those years ago. A high school kid pitching a High School game, ironically against my Alma Mater who I was actually cheering against that day. The pitcher was pretty good that day, I think he even managed to make a living playing the game and has been the subject of quite a few of my BLOGS.
Seven years from High School to the Major Leagues.

Hump Day
Hopefully this day is much better than what I experienced yesterday. Don't EVER use FedEx, the assholes claim no one was home and didn't leave my package at the door even thought Chad was home all day. I called FedEx and it has to be a live signature for them to leave my replacement iPhone, and the bitch on the phone was not helpful at all. SCREW FEDEX.
I called Apple to see if we can change the shipping plans. After being on hold for an hour and a half, they could not get through to who they needed to get through to to email me the form to sign and stick on the door so FedEx would leave the package and content that I have paid for, not only the product, but the shipping included. After 2 1/2 hours on the phone with Apple after being initially told that they could e-mail me a form and I could sign it and stick it on the door, I was then told that they don't.
I even went in early at work yesterday to get a good workout, long story short I was at the office for 12 hours yesterday, 4 hours of it taking care of personal business because Hayley's printer is out of ink.
This better be a better day.
