Hoss Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Can't wait for the Hokies to pull off the upset over Tennessee tonight ... Grew up a Hokies fan but it's been a few years since I've been this excited for a game. Probably because College Game Day is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inkman Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Is this the game that's at a racetrack? I don't really understand the point of said game location. Watching games at the Ralph is bad enough, let's make that experience three times as bad!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabel79 Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 I don't really understand the point of said game location. Watching games at the Ralph is bad enough, let's make that experience three times as bad!! It's a cash grab / publicity stunt. Bristol is half in Tenessee, half in Virginia. The venue enables them to make a claim for the largest US sporting event crowd or some nonsense. Blech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Is this the game that's at a racetrack? Yep. I don't really understand the point of said game location. Watching games at the Ralph is bad enough, let's make that experience three times as bad!! But don't you want to say you were 1 of the 150k fans at the best attended football game in HISTORY? :rolleyes: (That is IF you don't count the self-reported attendance at the Euler-Bill game in January '93 which at last report was 372,007.) It's a cash grab / publicity stunt. Bristol is half in Tenessee, half in Virginia. The venue enables them to make a claim for the largest US sporting event crowd or some nonsense. Blech. Doubt sporting event, as that should belong to some LTL race, right? (Probably Daytona or Brickyard) But biggest non-motorsport crowd? Yep.

Hoss Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Va Tech killing it so far. This offense isn't like the offenses run by any top Frank Beamer team. Normally run by high-speed, power-arm QBs likes the two Vicks or Tyrod the new coach has an emphasis on size and a ton of pre-snap personnel shifts.

Rooting for national power houses is like bring a supermodel to the bar and have her give you head in front of everyone. I ran cross country and track for Mississippi State.

When I replied I didn't see this post. Try to picture it as pulling for Vader to take out the Emperor when he was trying to kill Luke Skywalker.

There's not one team you always want to lose?PatriotsYankees Irish I'm so blinded with sports rage that when the Red Sox needed a Yankee win to get into the post season, I couldn't root for them. One game vs my team reaching the promise land and I couldn't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoPre Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 I'll second that. No matter what Ole Miss could do to help MSU I just couldn't pull for them. Quite sure everyone has their own opinion. Some may say a love for their team is greater than a hate for another team. That is understandable. I'm just on the on the side where hate is greater than love. Let me add this is all about sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
