The defending Super Bowl Champions the New Orleans Saints bought a ticket to the NFL playoffs last night by beat Atlanta in the Georgia Dome. There is only one spot left in the NFC and the Packers and Giants are hoping they get in.
Last night Georgia Tech began the Bowl Season for the ACC losing to Air Force 14-7. Today the Wolfpack will try to give the ACC their first victory playing West Virginia in Orlando. The big question of the night will be whether this is the last game for Russell Wilson. My guess is yes this is it.
Wilson having played professional baseball last summer did not sit well with Tom O'Brien showing up for summer camp right off the baseball field. It was nearly half the season until Coach O'Brien quit saying that Wilson was trying to get into football shape. The last home game Wilson walked with the seniors. O'Brien does not want to half to go through Spring Football and all summer without his #1 player preparing for his last season.
Field conditions being the way they are it will be interesting to see if the Coleman Pitt baseball camp is able to hit the field this week. Proceeds from the camp are to help support the baseball program from Post 58 American Legion. Nash Central is the site if it goes on. The biggest problem with moving the dates is the availability of coaches like Billy Godwin of ECU. Once school starts back his focus will be putting a baseball team on the field in the middle of February.
Greg Crudup told me last week during the Nash County Christmas Tournament that fifteen players showed up for the try outs held at South Rocky Mount Community Center and fifteen more were in Greensboro all trying to make the Renegades. They will be a new team in the ABA from North Carolina next season and he is sure that the team will be competitive.
