The Shotgun/Throwdown: Wednesday (11/25/09) Edition

Widmer_medium

Welcome, By-Godders, to the Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU's best place for sports links, information and entertainment.  Today we're being brought to you by Widmer. That gets us to 26.

There's plenty inside to keep you occupied for a while.  For one, we got good news on the BB front last night.  There will still be S/T editions the next two days.  I've already got some great things lined up for your enjoyment, so keep visiting through the holiday break as we prepare for the 102nd Backyard Brawl and the 76 Classic.  For those of you travelling, be careful and have a great holiday!!  I love getting tips, suggestions and requests, so send 'em in.  And away we go...

Happy Thnaksgiving to all By-Godders!

it’s 9:46 AM on Wednesday, and Pitt still sucks!

There’s something fundamentally disturbing about watching a small child who’s been taught to try to hurt other children, take the head off of a child who’s parents got them into football to have fun and enjoy the game.

Reminds me of those beauty queen pageants and the soccer mom’s who obsess over them.

To all you turkeys (and Pitt fans out there)

Gobble Gobble Gobble…

Let’s Go Mountaineers!

Happy Thanksgiving to all Mountaineer fans.
