Turkey Bites

• My Old Hokies/New Hokies opinion piece from yesterday drew a flood of eloquent and heartfelt email from some old Hokies, so I've updated the Mailbag page with some letters that I think you'll enjoy. Check it out.
• Bryan Still caught a 14-yard touchdown pass in the Chargers' 23-20 preseason loss to the Vikings the other night. I was not able to get his complete stats, but he caught the TD pass early in the fourth quarter of a tight game, so that's good news, at least.
• For those of you who, like me, consider tailgating in the Animal Science parking lot to be a tradition (nay, your birth right as a Hokie), you may have to find a new place to park. The AnSci parking lot will not be available to the general public during games this coming football season. Instead, it will become a Hokie Club parking lot, due to the loss of parking spaces elsewhere during the construction that's going on near the football stadium. The Hokie Club level is donations of $100-$250, and although I'd like to think that all Hokie Central readers give at least $1,000 a year, I know that's not true, so many of you may be displaced when you come to visit for a football game this year. I know, it kinda makes me sad, too. I'm in the Hokie Club, so it's not a problem for me, but it's just weird, you know?
• The new official Tech football web site is looking pretty snazzy. I liked Damian Salas' old site, but the new one is packed with info, including a page dedicated to the new Merryman Center, complete with a picture of the architectural (did I spell that right?) model.
