ya, I hear ya.

uhhh one of them might. I know my boss will be there. He's at just about every home VT game. We have a pretty large VT alumni base in our office but we're in VA Beach so a lot of our younger alumn's probably don't go to as many of the games as our older folks.

Last night we had the ODU Dean of Engineering in our office doing a thank you for your support and presentation/update on what's happening in the college. We have a handful of people who went to VT for undergrad and ODU for grad and there was a good amount of ribbing going on related to how much better ODU is than VT in not only Engineering results in the state but also... football. It was a nice moment.
