A Word from our Sponsors. Sunday, October 5, 2008. A word from Governor Palin. Governor Palin, could you please explain how the Terps lost 31-0 to the Virginia Cavaliers on Saturday?

It Never Rains in College Park: Notes from the Bucknell Blowout
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008/11/notes-from-bucknell-blowout.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Sunday, November 16, 2008. Notes from the Bucknell Blowout. In case you missed it, the Maryland men found success in their first game of the season. They shot down the Bucknell Bison convincingly, winning 81-52. It highlighted some of the ideas I talked about in the preview, but solidified some other issues I wondered about before everyone was healthy and on the floor. I'm going to approach this with the mindset that there is no "bad" stuff, just "not-so-good" stuff. He managed ...

http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008/10/also-you-should-probably-know.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Thursday, October 2, 2008. Also, you should probably know. Maryland got their first 2009 commitment for basketball, assuming of course that Jin Soo Kim. Is considered eligible for this fall. A 6'7 power forward out of New Yawk, chose the Terps over West Virginia, Pitt, Tennessee, St. John's and Florida, so that's a nice pool to be picked from! As always, Matt Bracken of baltimoresun.com sports has the scoop on the Brooklyn big man. And so on and so forth. And a three-star guy on...

It Never Rains in College Park: July 2008
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Monday, July 21, 2008. Holy Crap, Go See Dark Knight. I try not to make ludicrous claims about movies. I don't think I generally buy into movie hype, especially those with the most hype of all: summer "blockbusters.". But if there's one movie that should. Be overblown this summer, without a doubt, it should be The Dark Knight. Let's talk about what separates DK. From the rest of the pack:. COMPLEX AND VARIED THEMES. One of the most annoying things about superhero films to me are...

It Never Rains in College Park: Rising Stars in Terp Basketball
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008/11/rising-stars-in-terp-basketball.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Saturday, November 8, 2008. Rising Stars in Terp Basketball. So it's been pretty hard to get out of the negatives when it comes to Men's Basketball at the University of Maryland. However, the team gave the fans some hope today in a 104-60 win over Northwood. Gary Williams had to put the Terps' reputation of "playing down" to competition to bed, and they did that and more, scoring an epic 104 points on a remarkable 50.7% FG percentage. You wish like hell Gist and Boom hadn't left...

It Never Rains in College Park: June 2008
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Friday, June 27, 2008. James Gist taken in the NBA Draft. I just have a few small wishes in this world, and several of them have to do with Maryland alumni making it at the professional level of their respective sports. This spring, I was denied this privilege when linebacker Erin Henderson, the defensive star on Maryland's football squad, went undrafted due to injury concerns. I was pleased enough to even overcome my marked distaste for Tony Parker. Obviously he still has a lon...

It Never Rains in College Park: The Essential Maryland Terrapins Preview
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008/11/essential-maryland-terrapins-preview.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Thursday, November 13, 2008. The Essential Maryland Terrapins Preview. Here we are, folks - on the edge of another basketball season. We all love the pigskin, we really do. But basketball is where it's at. There's no feeling like gathering together inside the Comcast Center, screaming your lungs out while watching the fast break across court end with a hellacious dunk. Admit it, Terp fans. When the Fridge gets a ring, maybe we'll think about switching religions. Please consider ...

It Never Rains in College Park: On the frontlines at DeMatha v. Good Counsel
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008/10/on-frontlines-at-dematha-v-good-counsel.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Saturday, October 4, 2008. On the frontlines at DeMatha v. Good Counsel. This Thursday, I attended the nationally televised high school football game between No. 10 DeMatha and No. 2 Good Counsel. I wrote this story for class:. However, the Good Counsel Falcons (5-0) took the air out of the much-ballyhooed contest in the first quarter by scoring 28 unanswered points on their way to knocking off the overmatched Stags, 42-21. DeMatha (3-2) looked virtually helpless as its defense ...

It Never Rains in College Park: Dominant Defense Downs Demon Deacons
http://kgooncp.blogspot.com/2008/10/dominant-defense-downs-demon-deacons.html
A Word from our Sponsors. Sunday, October 19, 2008. Dominant Defense Downs Demon Deacons. Before we start: Note the alliteration in the post title. Unless you were hiding under a rock, you probably heard the Terps absolutely crushing No. 21 Wake Forest last Saturday, 26-0. Grinding offense, stifling defense, another upset victory. shocking, right? Weeeellllllllll, I don't know. I mean, isn't this kind of typical of the Terps? Win a game against a ranked team at home? Well, keep it going - in more ways th...
