The Struttin’ Wolf

No, I’m not wasted. My day is though!

So, after dropping my wife off at school I went by the local P&C (think Food Lion of the North) and picked up a 4 pack of Guinness and a 6-er of Harp. This before reading that TOB enjoyed a Black and Tan after the game Saturday! So, really you would call a Harp and Guinness a “Half and Half”, a variation of Black and Tan. Most pubs (like Hibernian) use Bass for a plain Black and Tan. Snakebites are good too (Guinness and Woodchuck). Anyways, point is, I started pounding the pints at 11:30 in preparation of the Third Eye Blind concert tonight. Oh, and I’m playing poker online. Therefore, have neglected the blog today, until now.

On to things Wolfpack.

All are expected to sign today when the fall signing period begins.

N&O: Pack high on Meineke Car Care Bowl radar

Meineke Car Care Bowl officials are taking a strong look at N.C. State after the Pack’s four straight victories.

“N.C. State is very much on our radar,” executive director Will Webb said today. “If they win one more and become bowl eligible, we’d be very much interested in them.

“We’ve been watching them closely, especially the way they’ve come on. You have to be impressed with them given all the injuries they’ve had.”

Webb said representatives from the Charlotte-based bowl would be at the State-Wake Forest game on Saturday. The Demon Deacons also are high on the Meineke Care Care Bowl list, Webb said.
