Apparently you septics have college rodeo teams. And more interestingly, a bull rider from Iraq says it's still safer than going home.

In honour of Ichiro's 3000th hit, here is a great commercial he did with Griffey Jr. back in 2010.

I mention it because of this article.

Oh, that's nothing. You know what Virginia Tech's only national championship is? Bass fishing.

Hey now! My wife's nephew is on the three time national champion NC State's bass fishing team.

Did State give him a full scullership?

If not, I'm sure he was at least angling for one.

I'm sure a full scullership would be alluring enough for him to angle for one. Though, I'm not sure why he wouldn't be casting for one.

Bass fishing?

Only motor I got on muh swamp skiff is a trollin' motor. The Evinrude spooks the muskrats.
