ME MA EVELYN IN THE HOSPITAL, HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEE

Me Ma Evelyn fell last night at her house and broke her hip, she is at SRMC in Petersburg and they are going to have to do some surgery on her hip in the next few days. Well it was 21 years ago today Lee Olds was born, HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEE it seems just like yesterday that you were born. The Virginia football team continued to shoot themselves in the foot yesterday at Boston College when they had a chance to win, the biggest play occurred early in the 2nd half when the BC quarterback was hit and the ball dropped right into the hands of a defensive back who would have scored easily and he promptly drops the ball. Last week another defensive back had a ball go right through his hands which should have been picked which lead to a Maryland TD and opened th flood gates for the Terps, you simply cant win at this level unless you make the routine plays. Speaking of bad play the whole East Carolina defense is guilty of that, the Pirates gave up 62 points to a team who hadn't won but 2 games all year, the Pirates offense has to score at least 45 points a week if they even want to have a chance to win. Today in the NFL the Packers will be on the road at Minnesota and the Redskins will be on the road at Tennessee. Denny Hamlin will be looking to win his 1st Nascar championship today try to hold defending champion Jimmie Johnson. It looks like we have a new leader in our college football contest, details will be released soon. MICKEY
