watch: erin andrews shows wvu love on jimmy kimmel

When College Gameday announced they were going to Morgantown, I was ecstatic, but also pretty nervous. We're known for getting rowdy, and we're damn proud of it... but I don't think we always know when to calm the f down.

Luckily, Erin Andrews confirmed that we do know how to get down and dirty, but also be respectful to ESPN! YAY! Apparently she loved us.. or so it seemed on Jimmy Kimmel.



I'm loving her more and more... She's pretty awesome.

And Morgantown really did look awesome on Gameday last Saturday. Not on the field [obviously], but the weekend-long show was fantastic. Here's to hoping they head up the mountains again!

watch: espn sport science on gymnastics

It may only be gymnasts who want to watch this, but everyone should!

ESPN broke it down on gymnastics! The balance, the strength, the speed... All things science! How it starts: "The best athletes on the planet could just be gymnasts."

Ya damn right, John!



Anyone who ever watched gymnastics and thought it was no big thang, now ya know you're wrong.

And now I know I was a BFD! Also- I'm on my way to the gym now before the chat tonight, thanks to this video!

watch: dasean butler's operation comeback

You know by now that I'm a WVU Mountaineer... I'm obviously a gigantic fan.

I'm also a big fan of Da'Sean Butler... for obvious reasons, and just because he's a great guy and very deserving of an awesome future.

I met him and hung out with a couple of the players a couple of years ago [which I'm 98% positive he probably has no memory of, but that's okay] and he just seemed so humble and level-headed. I heart that.

Anyway, if you didn't know- He got injured in the Final Four and it was probably one of the most emotional things I have ever watched in sports.

Now he's trying to get better so he can get drafted into the NBA.

Just like every other video I've watched about him, this one is awesome and emotional in every way... And you'll like it whether you're a fan or not.



I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him big time! I'm sure he doesn't need it, but I shall do it anyway.

for all you 'skins fans... and the haters

Mike Mosley of ESPN added another article to his blog last night.. this time about how different the Washington Redskins are playing since week 1.

Like everyone else across the nation, he's somewhat shocked to see the Skins keep winning, after being dubbed the "cellar dwellers of the NFC East." Now he's noticing that it's a different game, and Coach Zorn and his boys are out to win.

Zorn is no longer being looked at as a rookie coach who is in way over his head, but someone who is aiming to be coach of the year.

Mosley's blog is just like every other reaction I have been getting as I walk around WVU's campus today with my "I'm a fan" shirt on. Things like "Wow, your skins are really pulling out those wins, huh?" And "how are your skins doing it?! I always say 'oh they're surely going to lose this one.. IN Philly.. but you win!'" My personal favorite that I just got-- "Ya boy Merril Hodge just said the skins are the best team in football. Wow."

Only thing about that comment is I'm a firm believer in jinxing things. I'm also a believer in the fact that the Washington Redskins are doing so great this year because they have been brought together by a set of terrible things. They are putting their heads in the game and working TOGETHER. We've always had good players, but they haven't always worked together. And now, they finally are.

So to the haters, watch out. But keep doubting us, because it only makes us stronger. To my fellow fans-- HAIL VICTORY!
