| I don't know why a chip block would be illegal though. Chop blocks have been outlawed since the early 80's in the NCAA, I thought.

| I believe the block you are thinking of when referring to vandy is a clipping type of block. |

| Things I'm worried about more than Hunter taking a cheap shot:
- our run games
- our OL play
- Dools having the team ready for NC state
- if my friend Tony Vincent will make it past the next round on The Voice
- if the supreme court will overturn Obamacare
- my 13 year olds braces are hurting her teeth
- my son thinks that Jesus, not the Easter bunny, will bring him candy on Sunday
- is eating cereal before I go to bed bad for me in the long run?
- my 10 year old daughter's obsession with her ipad's cam wow feature
- my refrigerator leaks water about once every 10 days
Why is it so hard to sleep in hotel rooms?

| | Junior Member | How awesome would it be to see Dooley throw off his headset and go across the field after Franklin when he sees the cheap shots that are sure to come? I love seeing Dooley get fired up. and Franklin is a douche. |

I think I've made my point. Posted via VolNation Mobile | What's funny is that I always see that picture of Reagan and imagine you as a 65 year old. Then you talk about your young kids and it weirds me out. I realize I had no reason to think you were that old. Odd. |

| this is football, there are players on every team in the NCAA on both sides of the ball recovering from major injury
if it has healed as well as the trainers say it has then he is not any more likely than anyone else to have a tear - just part of the game so not worth worrying about |

I think I've made my point. Posted via VolNation Mobile | Are your concerns for or against Obamacare? For Jesus or against? For candy or against?
