Is anyone else watching on the CBS website?
These announcers crack me up. Are they just not turning off their microphones?
That lack of advertisements is awesome, I just watched the band on TV during halftime for the first time ever!

Did you pay for the access? It wanted eight bucks from me.
I did not pony up.

Hahaha guys. Be glad you have Flat Me, because I'm exhausted. Wiped out. Hopefully I'll get a 2nd wind because I need to go to Target tonight.

I tried to get the game on ESPN360.com but my effing VPN is a piece of crap (Do you hear that USC? Do you? It SUCKS!) so I can't even see if it's on there and at this point in the 2nd half, I'm not ponying up 8 bucks (el cheapo). Anyhoo, I think I'm too wiped out to even try to keep up w/ the chat room so I'll sit here and mope. :(

Hope y'all are having a great time... LGD!

Agree I am wipped too and I didn't do anything today! CBS wanted to charge me about 8 bucks also. Couldn't find any audio or streaming video. Kept checking the chat room but nothing going on. The GoDuke.com site was having technical difficulties..... how frustrating X( X( X( .

I checked out and my son and I built his starwars battle trooper carrier, he is sooo excited. I'll have to post a picture! :D I had to assist with a win for someone today! ;)

16 to 24; Richmond. Final score. :(
We were out to stomp some spiders and wound up bit! Dang it!!
I posted a few notes during the game on my facebook account. I tried to access Crazietalk but it was too involved to do it.
Pictures from Brunchgate and from the game will follow (tomorrow sometime)

Special teams problems. The blocked punt and 2 not-too-difficult missed FGs made a huge difference.

I forgot about the blocked punt. Am still steaming over the guy who spiked the ball and cost us 15 yards. Wonder what Coach Cut is going to make him do.

Oh, I saw a really cool t-shirt, it read "I Cutcliffin' love Duke Football."
I worship the Blue Devil!

I did lots. And was toast by about 2:30-3ish when I left (of course I'd already been there for 8 hours by then). I had plans to do stuff tonight, but I'm too freaking wiped, so I took a bath instead. Now I'm sitting here in the La-Z-Boy (literally) with my feet up and my knees aching. It's not so bad, though- 2 days off in a row and 2 pool parties to attend! :-bd (Though, ugh... swimsuit in front of people... ugh. :-q :ymsick: )

In fact, CB&B and I were so upset with our showing tonight, we thought we'd be extra busy until the wee hours moderating (and breathing) heavily that I fully anticipate banning someone tonight or tomorrow.

Tilly and knights68 and VeryDukeBlue sat 2-3 rows behind us and near the end of the game, I turned around and told them I would probably just come home and ban myself to get some practice and get things started. :oops: :roll: :)) =))

I've had lots of practice banning myself from things, unfortunately trips to Connecticut are not one of those things.

I was able to bribe one of the neighborhood kids, with fine orthodontics, to hold on to the car radio antenna while the car was turned in 'just the right' direction, so I could get acceptable reception of WIST-FM, from Thomasville. The radio continued to receive transmissions but I faded out shortly after the start of the 4th quarter.

I discovered this year's edition of Sam Adams Octoberfest has been released and picked up a few yesterday. They came in realllllly handy last night.

Spending today, going out, shopping for tires. I can hardly wait!

I heard somewhere that it was on XM. I need to get my XM set back up so I can hear these games.
