But entertaining show. Good stuff.

It might help viewers understand his "Nappy" nickname, and it'll remind me why I find Randall the hunkiest Hokie writer out there.

Well, him and the spikey-haired guy out of Norfolk. Nappy, take that young'n under your wing and teach him to use your wonderful wit.

Long live the Clidesdales.

Kisses, Susan

]]> Regarding: Moon over Wyoming

]]> Evidently, Doug and Randy have picked up a few fans since their debut a few weeks back. However, Lee Moon and the state of Wyoming may not be so fond of the guys. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/moon_over_wyoming.html#c8946 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/moon_over_wyoming.html#c8946 Fri, 08 Sep 2006 11:18:19 -0500 Comment by Mehokie on "Time to get offensive" Mehokie said: Randy,

Do you still have the Lumina? Can you check if Engleberger still has his?

Thanks,

MEHOKIE

]]> Regarding: Time to get offensive

]]> As far as Doug and Randy are concerned, all eyes are on the UVa and Tech offenses -- or the lack of it. And for those Lee Moon fans, well there's more news on the old Roanoker. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/time_to_get_offensive.html#c10285 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/time_to_get_offensive.html#c10285 Mon, 18 Sep 2006 05:30:03 -0500 Comment by Frazier Hughes on "Orba's picks, late hits and the Hoos" Frazier Hughes]]> said: My friend and I were talking UVA football a couple of years ago and the discussion came up whether or not Al Groh is a good coach. "We were amazed when he got his contract extension." Today we still are. Go hokies.

]]> Regarding: Orba's picks, late hits and the Hoos

]]> The mystery picker in the Fearless Forecasters has ties to Tech coach Frank Beamer, and Randy and Doug discuss the UVa QB shuffle. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/orbas_picks_late_hits_the_hoos.html#c10954 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/orbas_picks_late_hits_the_hoos.html#c10954 Thu, 21 Sep 2006 17:34:18 -0500 Comment by Jack Wilkerson on "Orba's picks, late hits and the Hoos" Jack Wilkerson said: Give me something to comment on...like finding AG a PR person and wondering where Musgrove is coaching, Atlanta? AG needs to show all of us Wahoos a little humility..a word he can spell but has no clue what it means. We are in fact a baseball, soccer, and lacrosse school and in a few years a basketball school..

]]> Regarding: Concerns over Ramblin' Wreck, Blue Devils

]]> Doug's picking against the Cavs. Randy says the Hokies will lose, too. Do they even know what they're talking about? http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/concerns_over_ramblin_wreck_bl.html#c12489 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/09/concerns_over_ramblin_wreck_bl.html#c12489 Fri, 29 Sep 2006 00:55:08 -0500 Comment by mark on "Pirates and pot shots" mark said: I haven't missed a show yet - and it is good. Just like the podcast before. The guys are getting more comfortable with it, loosening up. Are there adult beverages involved after all it is a tailgate. Nappy probably has a beer tucked away on the set somewhere. Keep up the good work it is getting even better.

]]> Regarding: Pirates and pot shots

]]> Randy makes sure we’re all clear how off Doug was in picking Duke over UVa, and we look ahead to Tech-BC. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/10/vacation_edition_with_pirates.html#c15425 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/10/vacation_edition_with_pirates.html#c15425 Thu, 12 Oct 2006 11:56:54 -0500 Comment by Don on "Herbstreit and the Hokie bad boys" Don said: Randy and Doug must be related to someone highup at in Roanoke Times, a brother-in-law?? Mabye the RRHA drug money money is going around for sports talk shows now. These two guys are lost and represent the "good old boys" at VT, money talks----they couldn't catch a football with a basket.

]]> Regarding: Herbstreit and the Hokie bad boys

]]> Doug and Randy talk about the unwanted national attention Virginia Tech received last week and also look ahead to the Virginia-UNC game. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/10/herbstreit_and_the_hokie_bad_b.html#c17557 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2006/10/herbstreit_and_the_hokie_bad_b.html#c17557 Fri, 20 Oct 2006 08:43:48 -0500 Comment by honest on "From TDs to slam dunks" honest said: nappy buries him again!

]]> Regarding: From TDs to slam dunks

]]> This week, Doug and Randy switch lanes and talk about big wins and puzzling losses on the hardwood for Virginia and Virginia Tech. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2007/01/from_tds_to_slam_dunks.html#c48435 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2007/01/from_tds_to_slam_dunks.html#c48435 Thu, 11 Jan 2007 20:56:30 -0500 Comment by Doug Wright on "Working OT on signing day" Doug Wright said: Hey Randy , I did to do a double take at first glance..My only question, were you Jake or Elwood ?

]]> Regarding: Working OT on signing day

]]> Our veteran scribes worked way past their bedtime Wednesday (well, at least past Doug's bedtime) to find out all we need to know about the newest Hokies and Hoos. http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2007/02/working_ot_on_signing_day.html#c66763 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2007/02/working_ot_on_signing_day.html#c66763 Mon, 12 Feb 2007 10:35:43 -0500 Comment by Bob Scates on "Keys to victory for Tech" Bob Scates said: I think the keys to Tech's Basketball success rest with Coach Seth and a determined group of players. Both have worked very hard to make the Tech Basketball what it has become of late. They are a CREDIT to Virginia Tech!

]]> Regarding: Keys to victory for Tech

]]> Well, when it comes to keys, there is plenty to talk about. Keys to UVa and Tech winning the ACC, keys to Randy's car, etc. ... http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2007/02/keys_to_victory_for_tech.html#c68470 http://blogs.roanoke.com/sportstimescast/2007/02/keys_to_victory_for_tech.html#c68470 Fri, 16 Feb 2007 10:17:27 -0500
