ONE WILD FOOTBALL GAME

I went out see Matoaca play in the high school playoffs last night and I have to say that it was one of the wildest high school football games that I have seen. In the 1st half Matoaca couldn't do anything wrong and went to the half with a 35-7 lead over Deep Run. I was ready to leave because it was so cold and I didn't think there was any way that Deep Run was coming back the way they played in the 1st half. Well I stayed and witnessed one major comeback by Deep Run as they tied the game on a field goal as time ran out 38-38 and went on to win the game in OT 41-38. Just as Matoaca did in the 1st half Deep Run dominated the 2nd half enroute to the victory, Deep Run will play Edison next week in the semi-finals. Down at the beach Manteo beat Camden 35-7, Manteo will now play in the 1A eastern divsion finals against Northampton West with the winner moving on to the 1A sate championship game. Today in college football UVA will travel to Virginia Tech in a must win game for the Cavaliers if they want to go to a bowl, it will be a tough task for the Cavaliers. Also today East Carolina will play at NC State, there isn't anybody in the country that ECU would rather beat than NC Sate. In Georgia today Georgia Tech will be at Georgia in the battle of Georgia, I think Georgia will upset Georgia Tech today. In SPHL action last night the Renegades beat the best team in the league the Knoxville Ice Bears 4-0, tonight the Gades will be back at the RC against the Fayetteville FireAntz. Where in the world is Scott at, he has been very absent from the blog lately. MICKEY

Got your bacteria?
Yogurt is crawling with bacteria -- and the more of it you eat, the better. Be sure to buy yogurt with a seal that guarantees it has live, active cultures. These cultures -- especially acidophilus and bifida -- colonize the lower intestines with beneficial bacteria while muscling out disease-causing bacteria. Eating yogurt may help prevent diarrhea in people taking antibiotics. Yogurt is easy to digest, especially for those who are lactose-intolerant, and is an excellent source of calcium, protein, riboflavin (a B vitamin), vitamin B-12 (which may be low in vegetarian diets) and vitamin A. To avoid unwanted saturated fat, choose nonfat or low-fat yogurt.

1ST OFFICIAL DAY OF SHOPPING

Well the say today is the 1st official day of shopping, well I have to question that since I know several people who have just about finished all of there Christmas shopping. None the less the one place that you want to stay away from today is shopping mall, with sales starting a 5am in most places and shoppers on a mission the mall is place that I will be trying to avoid today. In college football last night Miami upset Boston College 17-14, the win makes Miami bowl eligible. The win also makes Saturdays Wake Forest and Maryland game a battle for the Atlantic division title with the winner advancing to the ACC championship game with Georgia Tech. In high school football action tonight Deep Run 11-0 visits 11-0 Matoaca and at the beach Camden visits Manteo 13-0 in the semi-finals of the 1a eastern division playoffs. In hockey the Renegades offensive woes continued in Huntsville as the Gades fell to the Havoc 5-2, the Gades had 90 PIM'S in the game. The Gades will travel to Knoxville tonight to play the 1st place Ice Bears. It is going to feel like spring the next 6 days with temps in the mid to upper 60's, for November you couldn't ask for better temperatures. Well I hope everybody has room in there stomach for all the leftovers that you will need to eat today. GO SHOPPING. MICKEY

Score Nutrition Points!
Watching the game with friends? Bring along some lower-fat snacks to share, such as baked corn or potato chips, air-popped popcorn, or pretzels. Load up on salsa, which is a tasty, nutritious, low-calorie dip. Cut calories from drinks by sticking to water or seltzer, light beer, or a wine spritzer. To avoid overeating at parties and events, eat something before you arrive. If you show up hungry, you're more likely to overeat, and to reach for the most fattening fare.

Get Hip to Tofu!
It's not just for hippies! Tofu has timeless health benefits, and is one of the most nutritious sources of protein there is. Try it as a low-fat stand-in in dishes that normally call for meat. Tofu comes in a range of densities: silken, soft, firm and extra firm. Firm or extra-firm tofu holds its shape when sliced; use it for stir-fries, stews and braises. Soft and silken tofu is creamier. When pureed, tofu adds richness to dips and dressings like hummus and baba ghanoush.

WELL IT'S THANKSGIVING WEEK

One good thing about Thanksgiving week is it is short work week for most of us bloggers, 1 day off for some while fellow bloggers who work the government will get 2 days off (people who work at schools or for the state or federal gov't). Also on Tuesday there is a fellow blogger with a birthday, well some of you bloggers know whose birthday it is the others will just have to wait and see. The Packers and Redskins both lost again on Sunday, GB lost to the Patriots 35-0 while the Redskins lost to Tampa 20-17. The early line on Saturday's football game between Virginia Tech and Virginia has Virginia Tech favored by 17.5 points, Virginia has to win to become bowl eligible and still might not get invited to a bowl. Jimmy Johnson won the Nextel Cup yesterday at Homestead holding off Matt Kenseth for the title, Chesterfields Denny Hamlin finished 3rd in the chase for the cup, not bad for a rookie. Greg Biffle won yesterday's race. Also I did do a little more Christmas shopping over the weekend, I don't know about the rest of yall but my list is getting smaller and smaller every day. MICKEY

A surprisingly small serving of sweet potatoes meets your entire daily needs for vitamin E. Most vitamin E-rich foods, such as vegetable oils, nuts and avocados, contain a hefty dose of fat, but just 2/3 cup of sweet potatoes provides 100% of your daily vitamin E needs, and it's virtually fat-free. A medium sweet potato has just 118 calories, and its orange-hued flesh is rich in cancer-fighting beta carotene. Sweet potatoes also contain vitamin B6, potassium, iron and fiber -- pop one in the microwave for a great late afternoon snack.

VIRGINIA UPSETS MIAMI, ECU & RENEGADES FALL

The Virginia Cavaliers upset the Miami Hurricanes 17-7 in Charlottesville yesterday, with the win the Cavaliers need to beat Virginia Tech to become bowl eligible which will be a tough task. The UVA defense played a great game with the exception of that 1 play Miami scored on and the offense did enough to win scoring 17 points on a very good Miami defense. Miami offense sure didn't play like past Miami teams, they just didn't look like they had much speed, I have posted a few photos that I got from the AP of the game. The East Carolina Pirates may have lost the east division of CUSA yesterday giving up 9 points in the final 2:37 of the game. The Pirates lead the entire game until the last 3 seconds but those are the ones that count. ECU will play at NC State next weekend and have to get some help from Marshall to win the east division of CUSA. Rutgers miracle season came to an end last night losing to the Cincinnati Bearcats 30-7, the Scarlet Knights never showed up for this one and in the biggest game of the day Ohio State beat Michigan 42-39. The Richmond Renegades offensive woes continued last night in Jacksonville losing to the Barracudas 3-2 in OT, the Gades didn't score a goal until the last 5 minutes of the game, it's apparent to me this team needs some more goal scorers. Matt Kenseth won the final race of the season for the Busch series at Homestead last night, the Nextel Cup series will finish there season today at Homestead. MICKEY

BROPHY EJECTED, I AM HEADING TO UVA

The Richmond Renegades had a tough night in Florida last night falling to the Seals 6-1 and coach John Brophy was tossed with 1:02 left in the game for try to make a point to the ref. Brophy was upset that the Seals had received 13 power plays in the game while the Gades only received 2. After Brophy was ejected there were 4 fights in the final 1:02 of the game, I guess the Gades were trying to send a message. I will be heading up to UVA to see the Cavs upset the Miami Hurricanes, I just feel UVA will some how when this game I guess we will have to see. I went out to see the Matoaca game in the playoffs last night and I left a halftime with Matoaca up 42-0, the held on to win 42-9. Matoaca will now play Deep Run who beat Huguenot 34-7, Deep Run is 11-0 also so next weeks game should be a close one. The only other team in the area LC Bird lost to Highland Springs 18-7. Down at he beach Manteo pounded Roanoke 56-0, next week Manteo will play Camden. Kasey Kahne will be on the pole for the final race of the Nextel Cup series Sunday, he edged his teammate Scott Riggs for the top spot. In some other college football games of interest East Carolina will be at Rice, if the Pirates win they will win the east division of CUSA. Virginia Tech will be a Wake Forest tonight in what should be a good game and the biggest game of the year has Michigan visiting Ohio State. I have posted a photo that I took yesterday afternoon in front of the house of the clouds and the fall colors. Well I have to go get on the treadmill before I go to the game. MICKEY

There is a chance of some pretty will weather here in CH and at the beach today.
