The Shotgun/Throwdown: Monday (11/23/09) Edition

Icecoldsmbpale_main_medium

Welcome, By-Godders, to the Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU's best place for links, information and fun.  We're being brought to you today by San Miguel Pale Pilsen.  We've made it to 2 dozen.  Thanks to PM!!!

It's Brawl week.  Just thinking about it gets me fired up.  Basketball gets going again tomorrow too.  Things are still a bit slow today, but it's picking up.  Just so you all know, I'll be here all week.  I don't get holidays off (Charley and 5YS are slave drivers).  For you deer hunters out there, good luck and be safe.  The tips, suggestions and requests have been great, but we need more.  It all starts after the jump...

Anyone else notice...

…that Bill Stewart has been moonlighting as the Steelers’ special teams coach the past several weeks? Yikes.

I was thinking the same thing last night

Didn't the good luck of red/gold labels wear off some time ago?

Great reading everyday, thanks. Just thinking a change in beer label color might be good for say points, sound coaching decisions, covering receivers…heck, maybe even wins. Maybe i’m grasping, but we’re looking straight into the face of a potential 3-game losing streak to f’n Pitt.

it's not a good luck thing so much

as just trying to see how many I can get.

that’s the way it started, yeah, but now…

Has the #9 team in the country been returning tickets for this game? If so, that is pathetic, yet not shocking.
