N.C. State vs. the Cheats – 7pm

Ordinarily I attempt to construct a game thread entry with a brief and fairly objective look at State’s upcoming opponent … A simple frame of reference for those who may wish to invest some time into an upcoming game and/or invest some time here at the site during a game. Usually, I’ll utilize a photo of an opponent’s mascot or some other fun-type photo as the featured image. The tone is, hopefully, light. Yay … Fun.

Please forgive my indulgence, but I’m not doing any of that today.

You see, in my opinion the program State is facing tonight deserves no photos, deserves no pomp or celebration, no part of a fun, yet fierce, friendly rivalry. Hell, as evidenced by the title of this post you can see that I don’t even believe they should be referenced by their proper title. Over the past few decades, that program State is facing tonight just up and threw all of that away. Their reasons are their own, but I’m sure you can guess.

It’s important to note that the team coming to Raleigh tonight has some good kids – and they are kids. Marcus Paige in particular comes across as a really swell guy. For my part, there is certainly no hate for anyone – least of all the kids on that team. After all, they were brought into a program by adults who made certain promises to them. Adults that have – as we now see – turned that program into something ugly. All that said, those kids and that team represent ‘that program’.

And what ‘that program’ deserves is a beating.

They so richly deserve it, especially from our long suffering group in Raleigh. Sure, it’s just one game – and State could very well lose. ‘Deserve’s got nothing to do with it’. True that. As we see though with recent news and happenings surrounding ‘that University’ – eventually in one way or another, one form or another, people will get what they deserve.

Speaking only for myself, I typically hope most involved directly with State athletics avoid online forums and message boards because hey – let’s face it: us fans can get a little wacky at times. That said, if someone from our program does happen to come across these words – here is a message from me to you:

Kick that ass.

    They are not even a “program”, in my opinion. They are nothing at all.

    My newborn will get his first dose of this rivalry. If his mother has him dressed in baby blue tonight, I’ll be making a trip to the GoPack store. He’s brought good luck so far. Wore his Pack hat for the football beatdown.

    A fraudulent program will arrive in PNC tonight to provide the opposition. Everything they are was built on lies and cheating. Hopefully the league office will continue to use tendencies for years to come and keep them on some form of double secret probation for the next 20 years.

    It’s a hour and forty five minutes until tipoff…

    Back in the day the ghosts on the South Smoking Porch would have already had the upper quarter of Reynolds blue-gray…

    We would have ALL already been in our seats courtside around the lower level and in the endzones… yelling and stomping…
    and waving the back page of the Daily Tar Hell…

    The part time party time pep band would have been blaring the Red & White…
    and the noise meter would be climbing…

    … some kids today GOTT a lot to learn…

    I have a couple of images from an article in The News and Observer from 1940 that I would love to share with everyone. The article pertains to NC State celebrating 50 years as a university, and how it was perceived in its beginning from those of the powder blue persuasion. Can anyone give me a tip on the best way to post these images?

    Would love to see those images…Glad I wasn’t around at that time, but did they use the term “university”. We were still a “college” until early 60’s…I think we still were in 63 when I started. My father in law always said “State College” until he died because it was ingrained in his brain…

    Coyote, I think you have to put them on a “website”, then link. I haven’t done that in so long that I’ve forgotten.

    ^Joe…

    easiest way is to use links…
    if you have links just click on the “img” button in the editor and put the link in the pop up box…

    if you don’t have links… then upload the images from your desktop somewhere and use those…

    once you got that in your comments… you can control the width by putting

    width=”400″
    and / or
    height=”400″
    at the end of the code string… just before the ” />”….
    just make sure you leave one blank space before the ” />”

    widths are good up to about 700…

    BOTB, I uploaded them to Facebook, and then used “img”; I submitted, and the images would not display, only icons that would link you back to the photos on Facebook. Sigh…I really want you all to see this.

    Hi Joe – hopefully Bill will be able to help you out. I took a look at your image sources, but like Bill said – Facebook kills the images.

    You can upload your images to an image sharing service, such as photobucket or imgur and then repeat the process that Bill outlined above. Hope that is helpful 🙂
