You are, sadly, right...most probably. Although you never know.
YES a hundred times over!
Thoughts on the transfer portal? Jk.
I keep being told they will call me. I have been hearing that for 3+ weeks. I wish that they understood that this impacts travel plans, sign-ups for the alumni event, etc., and may impact whether folks are able to make the trip at all.
My daughter goes to Tech, so I reserved a hotel in downtown Blacksburg as soon as I heard we were playing down there. I, unfortunately, canceled the hotel yesterday after not hearing anything from Mason about being able to buy tickets.
Believe it or not, I saw this line posted somewhere and the response was something like, "Hey, you idiot, the Germans did not bomb Pearl Harbor! It was the Japanese!"
That response was wrong. Bluto knows what he was talking about.Believe it or not, I saw this line posted somewhere and the response was something like, "Hey, you idiot, the Germans did not bomb Pearl Harbor! It was the Japanese!"
The ticket office does finally have the ticket allotment from Tech, so if you gave them your name when they collected the interest list, you should be covered, just try to be patient.
I always liked Buchantz on Channel Five. He was there when Channel Nine had Glen Brenner, Channel Four had George Michael and Channel Seven had Frank Herzog.....the "Golden Age of Local Sports Anchors" in D.C.. Buchantz year he had all four competing anchors on for a get-together for a meeting of the local sports anchors on his Monday Night Redskins Show timeslot at the end of the football season. I ALSO I remember Brenner and Michael (who knew each other because had worked together or were competitors in earlier in Philly) making jokes at each others expense while filming a "promo" for the "Baseball in D.C." movement about 1990. Brenner had his "stroke" during the Marine Corps Marathon in Oct. 1991. That stroke was caused by a Brain Tumor that took Brenner's life only a few days after the Redskin's first playoff win against Atlanta in Jan. 1992. They are all gone now. Brenner and Michael dead, Herzog retired to Florida (I heard him about a year ago on a podcast.) and Buchantz now off the Wizard's broadcasts. He must be "around" seventy years old now. .....Geez' I'm old.
I remember Brenner coming out and giving a speech in the Student Union and wearing a stupid Mason hat during his broadcast that night. He was hilarious, and it was a sad day when he passed way too young.
Probably the one with ear flaps (the kind worn in the "Fargo" movie!). That was a giveaway at some point in the past--maybe the one where we lost to Duquesne in a game held in the RAC gym due to the beginning of a big snowstorm-the Duquesne bus got stuck on the Pa Turnpike for many hours returning to Pittsburgh after the game
Nah. It was one of those old "pimp" hats that the Jackson Five used to wear, with alternating Green and Gold panels. Someone gave it to him as a goof and he put it on during the speech.
