lol at Chuck's sense of humor when Bunting says he can't live without his wife and adds that he loves his dog Josephine to which Chuck quips "at least it's a she." Call him out Chuck. Was a nice video, but on the whole Chuck and Bunting are way too buddy buddy, it makes me sick.

7/21/2006 2:40:20 AM

good stuff

7/21/2006 2:43:35 AM

nah if you notice they get in little jabs at each other here and there. it's just not always that apparent. i like when Chuck is asked what his favorite word/words are he says referees and the media. didn't it seem like Coach Roof kind of sulked a bit when Bunting named State the most intense rival of Carolina. oh now how are the UNC faithfulless gonna back up the whole "State isn't our rival" crap now that the man in charge of their football team contradicted that statement.

7/21/2006 2:47:24 AM

yo we've got to start planning a big drinking party on Hillsborough the night before the first game. it needs to be a tradition. i think i remember telling people that we need to get people out there the night before the VT game last year. there were a ton of people out at Farmhouse and EV that night, and the WOLF...PACK chant got started back and forth between the two bars as well. i'm trying to think of a good name for it. help me out people. perhaps Howling on Hillsborough Night? i don't know, but i just want to get a good pre-gameday atmosphere going the night before the season starts. a way for students and young alum to start the season off right. it'd be nice to get something like the Hillsborough Hike type atmosphere, with out the need to go to a whole bunch of different places. just get all the bars full with drunken people. how long has Katmandu been open? i don't really remember it before this past Hillsborough Hike. maybe i just haven't paid enough attention to that building while driving by it. the good thing about that place is it is really spacious.

7/21/2006 5:11:15 AM

^^actually correct that. it was words he'd most like banished from the English language.

Quote :

"After three coaches stumbled to complete the sentence, "You won't catch me?," Amato didn't hesitate -- "at Thee DollHouse," he said."

Is the App St. game going to be broadcast locally?

7/26/2006 11:15:26 AM

^ doesnt matter, youre going.

7/26/2006 11:38:13 AM

^^ I doubt it, but since it is such a big game for people in-state, they may broadcast it on Wolf-Bytes or something like JP-Raycom.

They are the 1-AA champs by the way...

^I hope he isn't the #2 FB. I know Reggie Davis moved to LB but I thought that Cedric Hickman and the Bedics brother who tranfered from Penn State were going to play some FB along with Octavious Darby playing a role TE/FB

7/27/2006 7:47:45 AM

last year at this time the thread was about 35 pages long

7/27/2006 3:21:11 PM

I think we all know NCSU isn't all that strong and the delusions of 10 win seasons are gone. I am almost glad too. It was too much work and not much fun. I am tired of the booing and thinking we are gods gift to football and that we should win every game. Its a little more fun expecting to win 5 or 6 games and maybe winning 7 or 8.

I really think we will struggle to make a bowl but I'm looking foward to just enjoying myself this year instead of getting pissed every game. Maybe they will suprise me and win more than 6 but I'm not getting my hopes up.

7/27/2006 3:43:07 PM

^our schedule is pretty soft though

no miami or va tech, and a week ass out of conference schedule, even a shitty d-1 program should be able to put together a 6 win season against this schedule

7/27/2006 4:19:12 PM

I actually feel pretty good about this season. The weird thing is, I feel better about this upcoming season than I did last year at this time. (I don't know why though)

7/27/2006 4:44:23 PM

Yea.

I think I'm mentally blocking out the massive fecal explosion waiting to happen known as Basketball season so I'm pretty pumped for football.
