A couple of notes. . .
1. Leave the lighters at home. Apparently someone is sick and tired of hearing about the couches being burned and you don't make the State Legislature mad in WV by God. Just remember, you only get one so make it good.
THE STATE LEGISLATURE IS TRYING TO SNUFF OUT A HAZARDOUS POST-GAME FAN RITUAL.
A PROPOSED COUCH FIRE BILL WOULD MAKE FURNITURE TORCHING IN THE MOUNTAIN STATE A FELONY ON THE SECOND OFFENSE.
RIGHT NOW, BURNING PUBLIC PROPERTY IS CONSIDERED A MISDEMEANOR.
THE FELONY CHARGE WOULD CARRY A POSSIBLE TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR FINE AND A THREE YEAR JAIL SENTENCE.
2. I don't know what the ceiling of this basketball team is yet, but I know what the basement is. The first half of the Marshall game was as bad as we could play. Joe Alexander didn't score and Ruoff sleptwalked through the first 3/4 of the game. Young kept us in the game early singlehandedly. After Summers got into foul trouble Smalligan came in and, I can't believe I'm typing this, took over the game. He hit a three, picked up key rebounds, dunked on a backdoor, and even picked up a technical foul for oldest looking guy not named Greg Oden in college this year. WVU rallied from 13 down to cut it to 5 at the half and took over early in the second half. Apparently Marshall's plan of "turn it into a wrestling match" for the third straight year only worked for a half as they finally started getting called for the holds and pushes late in the first and bringing a switchblade onto the court early in the second.
3. Is it really a rivalry game if no one outside of West Virginia can see it? I'm not sure too many people around the country set up late waiting for those highlights last night on Sportscenter, but hey it makes the State Legislature happy. And we know what happens when they get angry.

Wow!! After the big wigs in WV made it legal in West Virginia to legally eat road kill (without be prosecuted if you lived) I thought they would never touch on another serious topic... I stand corrected

Keep taking that "better than thou" stance as a Maryland fan (raised in WV btw) and keep rioting in the streets after non-important wins.

Might want to use this one instead, they rioted after they won the National Championship , you guys riot for beating Pitt.. There is a difference.
And you are a "better than thou" West Virginia fan (raised in MD btw) who grew up a Miami Hurricane fan
They rioted after winning a Women's National Championship. Little difference there. Keep it up and I'll post a picture of you and John with a deer.
The article is from the mens championship (2002 in the title jackass) , we won both.... Keep talking shit and I will post a pic of you dad making apple cider with your uncle in the background milking a cow...who also by the way has a stuffed deer in his living room
Oh and that isn't your uncle too? The article I found was about rioting after a womens championship. Which just shows how much you guys like to riot. Any excuse will do, such as "hey my uncle killed a deer and stuffed it in his living room. Let's burn shit."
OK OK, The article I sent you was for the mens team but I get your point.. If I dig deep enough I know you guys have burned a couch for beating Temple or some other worthless game. Maryland guys are not too bright when it comes to burning shit, they set bond fires right in front of their homes, didnt take genius to catch them.. at least you guys burn your neighbors trash
Well it is a little easier when it's already in the front yard anyway.
