  1. I honestly believe WVU will be higher than an 8 seed. The BE lost a lot of players this year due to NBA or Grad. Teams will be reloading. Casey Mitchell will be missed every three games. But then again, they may not miss him at all. It will be interesting to see what Huggs does with these guys. Look for a big year this year or definitely next !
  2. That's pretty cool, did you make it?
  3. Here is a local guy celebrating Osama's death. What do you think?
  4. LOL......You seemed like you thought you knew an awful lot about Boone County.
  5. Is that where Gman originates? When's the reunion?
  6. http://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/asiapcf/05/05/osama.many.wives/index.html?hpt=C2 "He was first married at the age of 17 to a cousin, Najwa Ghanem, who was probably two years younger than him. They had 11 children, but after a peripatetic life together Najwa finally left him (and Afghanistan) a few days before 9/11." The video says it was a first cousin. I found this a little odd.....wonder if this is common in the ME.
  7. at least you are honest! I really understand this side of it, but I get delaying it.
  8. My comment wasn't aimed at you, it was aimed at those simply saying it didn't happen because they have yet to show us photos. I agree with you. I can't stand the SOB and I'm glad he can't hurt anyone else. It's a huge victory for us in the war or terror. I'm proud of our President as well as our Military, especially the SEALS. I have mixed feelings on celebrating a death, but parading these pictures would not be the best idea right now.
  9. I really was dissapointed, because I want to see it. It's not that I'm a sicko, it's a point of closure I guess. But, if we have waited10 years +, I can wait a little longer. I feel that everyone's point is valid except for the wacko's who literally feel that it didn't happen. I understand the stance on wanting to wait. I feel that we may be trying to be too politically correct, but it may be the right step. I'm not a politician, but even the republicans that have seen the photo agree that it's him in addition to the DNA results. Sure the photos will come out sometime, even if it's when the next President comes along. I honestly think Obama will release them at some point, just not now due to trying not to look boastful. It's very sad to see some people so Anti-American / Anti-Government. When you sit there and say that it didn't happen, you simply take away from those Seals that did the deed. Do you not think that Bin Laden would have put out a video saying.....ummmm "I'm still alive, I kill you."? You are so ridiculous and sad......if you are so unhappy.....find another country!
  10. President Obama chooses not to release photos. IMO, They will be released for you to view at a later date. I know there is a huge diff of opinion. Both Dems / Reps have agreed it is him both by looking at it and verifying it. I agree with delaying it to let some tension dissolve. I think they compared to "spiking the football after a TD." Your thoughts.
  11. LOl, seriously, if he isn't affiliated with some gov't agency......he must out of his mind.
  12. This is really interesting to find out who gets it, both coach and AD. I've heard some rumors of some that put in for it. I wonder if there are any seasoned / veteran area coaches looking for a change or a job. Any guesses?
  13. WOW! Either he's a wacko or there is some truth to it. I'm interested to see if he worked with any agencies or if he was on his own, if he has been in a dark room playing too many video games. Time will tell.
  14. No, you are right! I'm just saying maybe the rest of the team quit due to no coach.
  15. http://whitehouse.blogs.cnn.com/2011/05/03/even-more-on-the-photos/?hpt=T1 Maybe we will see something soon.
  16. LOL, OH BROTHER! Why don't you move to a small remote part of Pakistan and run for office? I hear they are looking for a new leader. Not the country the crazy fools who hate everything we stand for. I hear a mansion is available too! Look , I'm messing with ya, but really? This whole thing is a political ploy? I call BS on you. If they have followed him for 8 months and built a model of the compound just to practice the drill on, why didn't he wait until close to election time for his next term and just keep following him and pop one in his head at that time? It's kind of pathetic to see a grown man act like this. It's like the kid who didn't win at kickball stomping his feet and going home. No need to be on Obama's case, he's an American, he has a birth certificate, te majority of your fellow Americans put him in office, and he was the head of the operation. He made the decisions based on the hard work of the people in positions to do it. No President will be in harms way , Grant isn't coming back from the dead and bringing Washington with him. Great job !
  17. I agree....I'd like to think that no matter the president, I would give credit where it is due. No he didn't pull the trigger, but our President's no longer serve inthe military (something I think was great about our history). He did however make the decision to follow up a lead with intelligence and the decision to carry out raid. I could on and on about how some leads weren't followed up on prior to 9-11 but I won't go there. I'm happy of the job that our government agencies and military have done in regards to this. There is so much we don't know about the SEALS and the JSOC teams and probably never will, but they are highly trained and do what they do to protect our rights and our way of life. Good job!
  18. And there is the political nonsense! Not starting crap, but really, can we not just be happy that he is gone, proud of our men and women that work so hard, and even more so of the Seals and the team including our President who made sure this went down. Yes, Obama will win over some fans or voters with this and yes it will be used as a political tool as anyone did or would do in similar situations. My response was to the 50 million Facebook posts from Republican friends who were griping over Obama instead of being a proud American. It's pretty sad in my book.
  19. 1. I just want to say thank you and how proud I am today. 2. I really hate to see the political nonsense.....I've already heard the whining from both sides about giving Bush or Obama credit. Give it up already! I haven't read it here....I'm just venting. Obama has been overseeing and gave the order...so he gets credit there. I don't think that he sounded like he put the initial bounty on his head so to speak. He did say that was a priority when he took office and I remember hearing that in speeches prior to winning the election. A lot of hard core republican friends of mine want to give Bush Credit......IMO, he had 8 years and chose to spend that looking for WMD, ridding the world of Saddam Huessein. I'm not bashing any of that...really. He may have initiated the war on terror and for that he gets credit. 3. Let's give credit to the Seals and everyone else involved in bring justice to our country and most specifically the people who lost someone in 9-11. 4.. It's a great day to be an American!
  20. I honestly don't care where his parents are born. He was born in the U.S. and is eligible to run for President. The majority of people that voted understand that and voted him in as the best candidate available. Whether some like it or not, he is there and will finish his turn and will run for reelection. If his name was John Smith.....NOONE would have chased this ridiculous crap. If it were a congressman of my state chasing it, I would want to know exactly why he was getting paid because he does not represent us by chasing this ridicuous crap. Go solve a REAL problem. I don't know if I will vote for him again or not yet. I'm waiting to see and hear the other candidates as well. I know some of his policies weren't popular, but doing the popular thing hasn't always gotten things done. The economy and such was in such a crap place that it was going to rear it's ugly head on whomever took office. I just don't understand the childish games that some play to make others look unqualified. The proof of his birth is out......even the long form.....get over it........find a hobby.....!
  21. I still can't believe that anyone is still crying over it! Why wasn't it an issue before he won the election? Why would any educated person not understand that this is a prerequisite to becoming president? Aren't there bigger things to tackle in this world.
  22. It's a shame what that man had going and threw it all away.
  23. No matter who walks into this job will look great! Graham has football history, more so than any MED school. Their biggest competitor would be Galax every couple years, Ft. Chiswell every couple years, and Grayson I believe has more students than they do. Grayson at one time would have gave them a good game but they have fallen off in recent years. Graham had a pretty decent jr. high team last year. I just really think whoever steps in there will win all or all but 1 game in MED year in and year out. They will lose a couple of OOC games to old SWD foes and Blfd, but will pull one of those out from time to time. Graham will see a state championship from this division in the next 3-5 years.
