Wake Forest 27 - NC State 23 Grrrrr + A Broken Windshield

Absolutely no excuse for losing to Wake Forest. Telecast nationally on ESPN's Thursday Night Football for everyone to see. Grrrrrrrrrrr. I have nothing else to say about that game.

Last night sucked for more than just a lost football game.

When we got to the stadium - this SUV was parked in my reserved parking spot. First time I've ever had to have someone towed from my parking spot.


When we got back to the parking lot after the game - some asshat had smashed in my windshield!


Campus Police and Wake County Sheriffs responded and took down the information. Of course, it's unlikely the cowardly piece of $#!T who did this will be tracked down. Law enforcement has more serious matters to attend to.

It could simply be a totally amazing coincidence that someone randomly picked my vehicle to vandalize out of all the cars in the parking lot. It may have absolutely nothing to do with the vehicle that was towed from my spot.

BTW - here's another photo of the car that was towed -



OK Karma - ball's in your court.

WTF?!?

Facebook (and others) track your browsing habits, purchasing habits and so on. And they tailor ads according to what you do.

So, just now, on Facebook - this showed up.

The table attachment for the Ozark canopy - yep, makes sense. I have one of those canopies for tailgating - the table attachment is a good idea.

But WTF is up with the other thing?

Invasion of the Body Snatchers



Who stole our team and replaced them with these guys?

New coach; start of a complete program rebuild; wait a couple years and we could see results; picked to finish 14 (at best) out of 16 in the ACC; definitely a losing record this year (both ACC and overall); maybe, maybe win 3 or 4 ACC games. Maybe.

Here we are - with 2 ACC games to go -

20 - 9 overall; 10 - 6 ACC

ACC standings are Virginia (#1 in the country); Dook (#5), UNCheats (#9) and tied for 4th - NC State and Clemson (#18).

We've beat UNCheats, Dook, Clemson and have lost to UNCheats, Clemson and UVA. We've also beat Arizona when they were ranked #2 (currently #19).

I was kind of hoping we'd be good enough to go to the NIT - maybe get to see a couple more home games. Turns out, we're better than that.

Looks like we're going to the Big Dance instead.

2 regular season games to go - then the ACC Tournament - then seeding for the NCAA Tournament.

A lot can happen in the next couple of weeks.

This is my favorite time of year.

Dennis Smith Jr

Crooked Sports Agent Andy Miller, ASM Sports: "Hey Dennis, since you stiffed us and signed with another agent, we want you to repay that $75,000 loan we gave you back in High School."

Dennis Smith Jr.: "What loan?"

LOL


NCAA: "Hey NC State, since DSJr took money from Crooked Sports Agent Andy Miller in High School, you have to forfeit your 2016 - 2017 basketball season. (15 - 17 overall; 4 - 14 ACC)"

NC State Fans: "OK!"

ROFL


For the record - Here's NC State's letter to Andy Miller, ASM Sports back in 2012 telling him to [bleep] off and stay the Hell away from NC State and any of our coaches, staff, athletes or recruits.

Pretty




Power went out last night at 6. Came back on this morning right after 10:40.

Closed up all the bedroom doors, stayed in the living room and kept a fire going all night.

With a couple of blankets, sleeping on the couch was cozy.

WRAL says Moncure officially got 9-inches; Pittsboro 11-inches.

I measured in three places: 8 - 1/4+ inches.
