It's easy to be passive about this, but here is where I have the problem..


When VT CLEARLY has a top 25 team, and they ignore us for as long as possible, until they have no choice but to rank us, which seems to be the Norm now with ESPN, and instead, take a mediocre SEC school with more losses, and bounce it in and out of the top 25 all season, what they are truly doing is stealing publicity from Virginia Tech.

The publicity of being ranked in the top 25 for weeks, has a financial value to it, and the ranking system publicised by ESPN etc, is purposely leaving Virginia Tech (and other schools) Out of the rankings for as long as possible, and passing this free publicity on to schools that are financially associated more directly with ESPN / Media Outlets that do not deserve it.

If would be one thing if this was an occasional thing where VT had to lose it's time in the sun.
But it's not an occasional thing. IT'S AN EVERY DAMN DAY THING.
EVERY WEEK THING. EVERY MONTH THING, AND EVERY YEAR THING.

I don't know about you guys, but I have my kerosene handy and my pitchfork sharpened!
