VIRGINIA TECH PUNNDS VIRGINIA, ECU WINS



The Virginia Cavaliers played well for about a half yesterday before the wheels completely fell off in the 2nd half. The Cavaliers actually trailed just 14-13 in the 3rd quarter before a fumble and the Tech tout was on en route to a 42-13 win. It looks like the Cavaliers will have a new coach next year but the question is going to be. The East Carolina Pirates knocked off the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles yesterday 25-20 and with the win will face the Houston Cougars at home in the CUSA Championship game. I saw them play Houston a few years ago and the Houston QB is very good, but the Houston defense tends to give up allot of points so this game could be a very high scoring affair. Also in the I-AA playoffs yesterday Richmond beat Elon 16-13 and will now face Appalachian State at home next week, William & Mary also won yesterday 37-0 and will face Southern Illinois on the road next week. In high school playoff action yesterday Thomas Dale beat Hermitage 7-0 and will face Oscar Smith next week at home while Petersburg fell to Hanover 42-8. Today in the NFL the Redskins will travel to Philadelphia to face the Eagles, the Packers have already won this week beating the Lions on Thanksgiving Day. It looks like Keith held on to his lead this week in the Mickey's Place College Football Pick Em Contest, however there was an upset winner this week. I will update the standings later this morning.

See the big picture. When obstacles pop up, ask yourself how stressful the situation really is: Will this matter in three months? Three years? For issues with long-term repercussions, write down exactly what you think the problem is or how the situation needs to change. Brainstorm about what you can do to move toward a better outcome, itemize the steps that must be taken, then create a concrete plan of action.
