Anybody have any ideas on how to save money on food? We just boiled 2 gallons of spaghetti. That should last us at least a couple of weeks.
I just googled "save money on food + youtube" and came up with this.
I'm gonna be on Court 27 at 9:00 am on Saturday. I'm prepared to see some good volleyball.

There's a lot going on
Okay, I haven't really kept you guys updated on my status. I no longer reside in Tusca-bama. From what I observed, they DO love the governor in Burningham. I moved up to the IC (Iowa City) and have had no real time to settle down. For crying out loud, I had a club practice after being here for 2 hours and have been going 100 mph since.
I'm planning on heading to "The Good Life" on Wednesday. The convention starts on Thursday as well as the first of the final four matches. ICE, even though we witnessed some good matches when we were in Lincoln, I think we missed out on one of the greatest wins of all time last Saturday. Max and Truth kept me updated during the last game and they did a fantastic job. They were also about 2 seconds behind Gametracker so I knew the Huskers had won before they told me. Max should definitely get into broadcasting, though.
I've got the mountain man beard going on right now. Don't have a reason to shave right now. I'll trim it down for the FF.
The Steelers are awesome. They may not win with style but they sure do hit hard.
I'm really excited to see everyone together this week. It's been a while. That's about it for now.

Heather, you broke my heart
As we all know, the Fightin' Willies hailing from Furman University have captured the SoCon and have an automatic bid to the big dance.
ESPNU was gracious enough to delay the selection show by 45 minutes so that we could all watch the 3rd place (blowout) game between to crappy mens basketball teams. With much anticipation I waited to see where the NCAA would send Furman (and the Huskers). As Heather took us through the bracket she revealed that the Paladins would have a short trip to Clemson for a showdown of biblical proportions against the Utes of Utah (way to be original). On a side note, the Huskers face Liberty at the Coliseum.
The bracket show continued down the right side of the bracket. I sent Ice a congrats and right before ESPNU headed to commercial we all heard that Stanford would take on Alabama in the first round.
WAIT! WTF!! DID SHE SAY ALABAMA?!?!
Hell yeah, Suede and Ice will both be dancin' this week. I couldn't believe it. I fired off a text to Suede to congratulate him as well. I called Max and as I was leaving him a voicemail, ESPNU came back and revealed that Stanford would be taking on ALBANY!!!
Heather you cruel woman why would you do this to me? Bring me to the point of pure joy and then bring reality crashing down. I should have known better than to fall for your games, but you knew exactly where to cut the deepest.

Billy, good luck on Friday. For those of you just tuning in, first serve is set for 5:00 p.m. EST on Friday December, 5th. Hopefully there will be a webcast or someone at the game can send me some text updates throughout the match.
IN A BATTLE WHERE NO ONE WILL WIN... WHO WILL WIN???
For those of you thinking I was talking about another Heather, shame on you. She's a nice girl

CHAMPIONS
Well Suede beat me to the blog-o-nets but it is true..Furman is finally going to the NCAA tournament!! This is the first time Furman Volleyball has made it to the big show. It was an amazing four days at our conference tournament and none of our matches were boring. All of them went five and the last two were complete upsets. It was an amazing experience for me and I have to admit that it rivals our experience with the National Championship team of 2006. I am very proud of our team and cannot wait to celebrate this year's accomplishments with everyone back home! Let us not forget the Professor's great State Championship with the Pius X ThunderBolts.
As a side note, all state outside hitter Natalie Braun will be wearing a Furman jersey next season and we cannot wait to get her here.
Boys it has been an amazing ride so far and I cannot wait to see what happens next.

That's a Hell of a Match
They're going to the show!
I love it when a team wins that has a lower hitting percentage...

We went 2-0!
Wow. I didn't think it was a possibility but we swept a weekend in the SEC! We beat Arkansas 3-1 on Friday and then beat Ole Miss 3-1 on Sunday. We switched the lineup from a 5-1 to a 6-2 and we increased our kills from 40 kills/match to 60 kills/match. That'll do it. Now we just have to do it vs Florida and Kentucky.
I saw that Furman lost to Samford. Dude, we played Samford in our pre-conference tournament and they are good. They got that transfer from Middle Tennessee State (the lefty) that is rediculously good. She just decided to go to law school at Samford for her senior year...and said, "Oh, by the way, I think I'll play volleyball for these guys, too!"
I'm upset but encouraged by the Husker's performance this weekend at Texas Tech. I'm very upset about the way it ended. Joe, you just gotta take that sack and score on one of the next two plays. But still, we've got a good season ahead of us. GBR!

Volleyball Iron Bowl
Like many people from Nebraska, I had never heard of or cared for the stupid Iron Bowl. Don't get me wrong, I've come to enjoy my Alabama football. The atmosphere is great on gameday and they're actually good now. Having said that..."GBR!"
Anyway, the volleyball version of the iron bowl is taking place tonight in Tuscaloosa in the CAVE where Alabama is 15-1 against Auburn since the turn of the century. We are currently trying to take our team "From Good to Great" (Which is a book, too) and we're not exactly sure which team is going to show up tonight...the great one, or the crappy one. We will see. We will see.
...The Huskers are good.

spooner land
so much is happening in lincoln right now it's difficult to put it all down on the webonets. football team is a mess, and the 'skur vb team seems to be struggling right now. it will be interesting to see if / how they put it together going into the ncaa tournament.
high school season has hit the last week and the thunderbolts have qualified for state for the 13th straight year. this will be my first experience coaching in the state tournament, and i'm pretty pumped to see how this goes. max and i have friday off, so we will probably hit up a local booze house after league on thursday night.
oh, and the 50" plasma is wicked sweet too...
