Slash and Burn
MOSCOW, IDAHO - OCTOBER 2000 I'd been out of the Army for less than 6 months and still had my head on a swivel. Now I found myself climbing cell towers for a living, trying to find an adrenaline high that matched my time in service. Idaho was under siege during this time. Not from a foreign...
Resolute
Dawn. Mornings in Knoxville were always something special to me, especially this time of the year. On some mornings the fog was so thick off the Tennessee River you could almost smell it. The colors are changing. On the hill stand hundreds of the flowers from where we drew our school colors. The...
$5 "Thanks, Jim!" Clearance + Another Thanks
Thanks for the memories, #25! With that, the last of our Thome Tees are only $5 each on the Blorch! Shop. Any help to clear house is much appreciated! Remaining sizes vary per color. And psst... if you have any friends or family in "The Forest City," these make wonderful Labor Day gifts. If...
Who Are We? Where Are We? Terps!
I've been reading this blog for quite some time and over the past few months the amount of readers and contributers has exploded. I feel this community is the most active of all the ACC blogs. I thought it would be great if we were to share some information about each other to better enhance our...
Do all Yellow Jackets do this?
As I spend these long, football-forsaken days of summer longing for the steam-whistled roar of Grant Field touchdowns on a sunny Saturday afternoon, I find myself mindlessly watching replay games from College Football Classics on Sports South. And as I watch games like past Egg Bowls or NCSU vs....
Proper fan etiquette
We've seen it a thousand times if we've seen it once. A fan of an opposing team is trash talking to anyone around him that will listen...and tempers start to flare... After the latest story of an incident in LA that left a Giants fan in a medically induced coma, I am compelled to write this. Story...
Why is it so damn hard to find a decent bar to watch the fight?
Since giving up cable TV, I no longer order the UFC pay-per-views. I'm also the only one of my friends that really likes MMA, so none of them order it at their house. Sucks. My only viable option for watching the fight is going out to a local bar, which is cool with me. I like bars and the...
Please Help Me - I do not understand
I consider myself a life long Jets fan. Until I retired and moved out of the country, I was a season ticket holder. Of my two best friends, one is a Pats fan and one is a Fins fan. We get together each Sunday (Monday also if our teams are involved), and act like fans. Calling each other crazy,...
Are we not "FANS" of the Jaguars?
Why have so many fans lost faith in the Jaguars? Many teams in the league have been much worse over the last 5-6 years, yet our fans seem to take it the worst. Is this because the NFL is still "new" to them? Do they really not understand the differences between the NFL and college? This...
Couture vs. Toney Taught Us More About MMA Fans Than It Did About MMA
Let us turn the clock back to May 27, 2006. At the time, your humble correspondent had been watching MMA as a casual fan for roughly eight months, drawn in by the second season of "The Ultimate Fighter" reality show. I was now drawn in by something far more fascinating than anything I had ever seen...
