Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Your RBR Word of the Day: knell

knell \NEL\, verb:
1. The stroke of a bell tolled at a funeral or at the death of a person; a death signal; a passing bell; hence, figuratively, a warning of, or a sound indicating, the passing away of anything.

intransitive verb:
1. To sound as a knell; especially, to toll at a death or funeral; hence, to sound as a warning or evil omen.

I have to admit, even though I just can't get on board with the Hokies, having Enter Sandman knell their entrance into the stadium is pretty awesome.

VT Hokies

I grew up in Virginia and I still root for the University of Virginia (of course now that I have been living in Bama I’m Crimson through and through). I attended a VT vs. UVA game back in the 90’s in Blacksburg and I would say that Virginia Tech fans are a combination of UT and AUB fans. Yeah, that bad. Also, other teams in the SEC comment on how annoying the elephant roar is at Bryant-Denny….try going to Blacksburg and hearing that damn gobble gobble every 2 min. However, I will admit that the “Enter Sandman” entrance is pretty cool. Can’t wait for the ’09 Bama vs. VT in Atlanta. ROLL TIDE!

Wow

I love that song. It fits Saban much better than Beamer though; but he doesn’t have time for that ……
