Mostly Virginia Tech and Packers stuff.
(And McLaren F1, and the Nationals when they actually try to field a team)
Pinned
Created a Virginia Tech Fans Starter Pack and I hope to add more to it as I see more folks on here.

I'm sorry, what? On those roads with short notice?

I hate that under normal circumstances I would want to go, but you couldn't pay me to go to this.

The new WTC 700 Spa race in GT7 with the update is very good.

You mentioned in FTWc Canadian TV shows that you've seen and you didn't mention Shoresy. Please do yourself a favor and watch it. While it's based on Letterkenny, you don't really need to have seen it to like it. Each season is 6 30 minute episodes.

Not seeing a whole lot of athletes, but there's a reason why I stopped buying jerseys of living Green Bay quarterbacks.
Question for the Skyline: What was your HARDEST "cancel"?? Like the actor/singer/athlete that was the hardest to drop.

I feel like it's always people I don't fw getting canceled so it's never really a loss.

The hardest one was maybe TI because I actually liked multiple albums by him.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Brent Pry is back as VT's DC because when they asked Bud Foster if he was interested, he replied "Never leaving Lake!"

My first thought was of this scene, but this would also require the news to report on billionaires in compromising situations, so it's still just a work of fiction.

Didn't leave a voicemail, because this didn't seem up to the floor of story expectations:

Age 10, first time/last time skiing, at White Tail. I had just learned how to French fry/pizza and tried the green bunny slalom. A mom zipped past me and told me to get out of the way. I flipped her off.

Saw this yesterday, and while not bike riding, I think still fits this week's episode.
