Liberty Mutual has COACH Of The YEAR award for each NCAA division. Go to

http://www.coachoftheyear.com/

and vote for Jerry Moore. Liberty Mutual will donate $50,000 to the charity of his choice and $20,000 to the Appalachian State Alumni Association.

I think it's worth giving them your email address. I have Liberty Mutual and they have always done me right!

Stupid headlines from the W-S Journal

Don't get me wrong, I DO INDEED admire the Winston-Salem Journal. They consistantly report on the Mountaineers. For this they are to be commended.

But these 2 headlines just stink! ...

"Tar Heel defense difference in victory" http://www2.journalnow.com/content/2009/sep/06/tar-heel-defense-difference-in-victory/
Oh yeah, like the Heels were so big and bad in defeating a bottom feeder of the SoCon. I wonder why Butch wouldn't schedule ... ummm ... an in-state foe - like maybe ASU or Elon?

Here's the other totally stupid headline...

"Richmond pulls shocker, knocks off Duke 24-16"

OK, really. Where's the shock value?

Armanti on the sidelines

Fan Fest was a ton o fun today! The weather held out and the event was very well attended.
There's Armanti on the sidelines with his crutches and big red and black shorts. He seemed to be smiling, so we'll take that as a good sign.

The Battle of The Beards

Need a couple of tickets to the ECU game? Here's a good deal...
