VIRGINIA BEATS DUKE, REDSKINS AT MAIMI

The Virginia Cavaliers are now 7-3 after beating Duke yesterday 31-21 in Charlottesville.  I don't think anybody would have predicted that the Cavs record would be as good as it is and they have 2 games left to improve on that in games that they will be heave underdogs.  The Cavs really didn't play that well on offense or defense yesterday but were still able to come away with the W, however if they want any shot at beating Florida State next week they are going to have to play much better.  Next weeks game with Florida State will be played on Saturday night at 7:30pm on ESPN2.  In the NFL today if there was ever a chance for the Redskins to win another game this it will be today when the Skins travel down to Miami, but I would not bet anybody that they were going to win.  The Packers don't play until tomorrow night at home against the Minnesota Vikings.  Matt Kenseth capture the pole for today race at Phoenix edging out A.J. Almendinger for the top spot, Tony Stewart qualified 8th while Edwards will start 9th.  Did you know there are only 41 days until Christmas and I am only about half way through all my shopping.  MICKEY
