Looks like an End to the Quarterback Controversy at VT
...But for real this time.

An announcement was made today that Marcus Vick is suspended from athletic competition as well as all team activities until further notice. The announcement made on the Virginia Tech website didn't give much detail as to why he was being suspended, so I went to the Roanoke Times online and found an article that gave a reason. Don't you think he would've straigtened up after the first close call earlier this year?? I guess not.

Update
Happy Belated 4th of July! :)

Well... Summer session one is finally over! :) So I had a breather for the weekend and classes start back up again for summer session II tomorrow.

While I was at home this evening after our weekend at the lake, my parents showed me a newspaper article from Myrtle Beach that was given out at Gary Epperly's funeral. It talked about how they speculate that a change in the current has been the cause of three drownings there in the last few weeks. Apparently that's what caused Gary's drowning. They said that he and his son were out swimming around 8 pm and that they caught the current. Benjamin, his son, says that the last thing his dad said was "Get out of here as fast as you can, Ben" and then he gave Benjamin a shove into shore until ben could touch again... but it was all he could do to save his son. Benjamin is in 4th or 5th grade now, but is autistic and still doesn't quite grasp what happened. He still asks "When is daddy coming home from the beach?"

Gary was a big influence on a lot of kids lives. He was really involved in the youth ministry at my church and, especially for some of the guys, he was someone you trusted and could go talk to about anything... Dad said that there are some of the guys that are really struggling with this because Gary was so influential in their lives.

Anyway, that's the word. Keep that family in your prayers if you will.
