Is Pittsnogle the greatest name ever or what?

Just thinking of it makes me smile.:)

Congratulations to Kevin and the Mountaineers!

1. Good...

...but not as good as Jarvis Basnight (Syracuse?) or Nevil Shed (Texas Western).

2. Those are good, but I think I like Pittsnogle so much because he

plays for West Virginia, but really sounds like he should be playing for Pittsburgh!

3. Yep, he's the nephew of my next-door neighbors

Sweet, unassuming kid -- comes around for visits to the neighborhood. I always thought "Pittsnogle" was a great name. Family has a long history here in the Berkeley County (Eastern Panhandle) area. I think the family name is old Pennsylvania Dutch. From what I've seen of the family, they're all tall as oak trees -- at least the men. LOL!

4. Too bad they lost last night!

I'm a Notre Dame fan, then UCONN (from CT originally) and then I was cheering for WVU--gotta go with the underdogs and the great names!:hi:
