by Eric D. GrahamOver the past couple of years, the ACC has made some "difficult financial" decisions to "kick-out" the University of Maryland, while adding Pittsburgh, Norte Dame, Syracuse, Boston College, Va.Tech, Miami, and Louisville to its ever-expanding conference.
With all of those additions, however, one must ask the question-while addressing the GIANT (Greenville) purple elephant in the room? Seriously!!! Why? in the hell, hasn't ECU, who, seems to be, the state's ugly step-sister, (NOT) been invited to participate in the party. I mean, really, how can the ACC overlook East Carolina-and select it's archrival Va.Tech instead. It doesn't make any (cents). But, I know it makes dollars.
Honestly, the Pirates are probably the best football program in the state and have proven it (time and time) again in head-to-head competition against ACC schools. Matter of fact, they had a six game winning streak last year until losing to Va. Tech (17-54). That's right, even with a disappointing record of (3-9) under rookie head coach Scottie Montogomery, they still managed to defeat NC State 33-30.
With that said, local sports fans will still have to rely on Google Map in order to manuever through the geographical mixed up jigglesaw puzzle-now-known-as the Atlantic Coast Conference, while continuing to wonder why a school only 85 miles from Raleigh isn't good enough to be in it.-www.bobbeethehater.blogspot.com
