Frump Day Links: 5/5/2010

Better late than never for today’s Frump Day links.  As usual, spreading the Hump Day love, one link at a time… It’s never too early to throw back a White Russian.  Even at age 2. (Brahsome) How’s Dat Pack looking at the end of Spring (Dave from Carter-Finley) Bobby Cox?  Pffft.  It’s “Bobby Cocks.” (No [...]

Lee Folwer: The Final Interview

For the past ten years, one man has has reigned over NC State athletics. This man, at times, has been both myth and legend. One thing he has not been is effective. This man is @Lee_Folwer. Today, Folwer steps down from his post and moves on to the next step in his life. Not before [...]

Frump Day Links: 4/28/2010

Frumpzilla spreading the Hump Day love, one link at a time… The Lions’ Zach Follet doing a little preseason shopping…for his opponents. (Busted Coverage) Just when you thought Shannon Elizabeth had become as irrelevant as Tim Toone. (Holy Taco) A growing issue in the world of sports: Premature celebration. It’s more common than you think. [...]

Wolfpack Spring Practice: Spring Game Observations

What a beautiful day and an excellent excuse to tailgate.  As opposed to years past, both sides of Carter-Finley were open and about 20-25k Pack fans showed up…both sides of the lower levels were close to being full.  Additionally, about 300 former players were on hand for the annual reunion, including Bill Cowher, Jerricho Cotchery, [...]

Lee Fowler: Not even safe from Engadget

Guess what, Frumpsters: N.C. State University’s refreshable Braille display could revolutionize reading for the blind. Isn’t that wonderful?!? I’m no tech guru, or I’d tell you all about it myself. Instead, I’ll just point you to Engadget’s story about this promising advancement prior to getting to the real point of this post. See, as you [...]

NC STATE crushes Duke, CJ Leslie looks on…

Notes from the game: No question that this season has shown mass improvement from the previous two in terms of intensity, hustle and pride exhibited by the Pack, however that has seldom resulted in the full 40 minutes needed to beat a quality opponent….until last night.  The Pack was focused and aggressive from start to [...]

Chas McBitch

Many larger (arguable) sites have run stories on Mr. McBowling Pin already.  Consider this supplemental.  And a bit traitorous considering my special lady got her papers from there. More opinion after the jump.  

Tar Heels Win Rivalry Game

The Heels left Durham with a W, which begs the question, does a win in the team’s only rivalry game make the season a success?  Short answer – no.  Longer answer after the jump.

The Most Relevant Preseaon College Football Poll Has Been Revealed…

EA Sports’ NCAA Football 2009 rankings.  I guess I should clarify this a bit.  You see, there are a lot of things that I think need to be changed about college football, and one of the first things I’d do as dictator is abolish all preseason polls; or at least their obvious, arguably inappropriate influence [...]

Wayne Ellington: The hottest player in the NCAA?

So, just how long were Dell and Stephen Curry’s games of HORSE?

I played HORSE with my dad when I was a kid.  It was fun.  We were usually done in 30 minutes tops.  Something tells me that such father-son bonding experiences are completely foreign to Dell and Stephen Curry.

If only this were Greg Paulus, all would be right with the world

Of course, I suppose Greg has taken some similar spills, or perhaps flops, himself, though I’m almost certain none of his had anything to do with butter on the court… ***Potentially NSFW due to some foul language (assuming you have audio)***
