 This is what I meant about cheering for Virginia Tech for the wrong reasons. College Gameday is beginning in Blacksburg for their game against VT which isn't a bad thing but their opponent is East Carolina. They aren't going to talk about the teams and their strategies (I mean come on, it's East Carolina) but instead about the sad event that happened in April.

 Now before you p.ussies start to think I'm disrespecting VT, I'm not at all.  It's quite the opposite because I feel they aren't going to be judged on their good team they will have this year but instead on how tragic it is they must play against the back drop of the April shooting.

 Everyone looks forward to the opening day of College Football but now when I wake up I will be watching Nesslar, Herby, and Corso talk about something depressing killing any ultimate joy I could possibly have.

It's not that they are "cheering" for VT, but the whole premise of Game Day is center their attention on the game that will grab the most national attention. Like it or not, the Virginia Tech game will be a big story just for all of the wrong reasons. But rather than talk about the tragedy all day, they will of course center on how much the university and fan base have pulled together. I have no complaints about Game Day being at VT for the opening weekend.
