Lost somewhere amid the sounds of our sporting culture - the perfectly miserable mix of fan booing and player bellyaching that so harmoniously blend to produce the NBA All-Star experience, the heavy breathing of XFL fans (all nine of them), and the constant in-house gripes of Minnesota Vikings - was the unassuming timbre of Jason Williams' voice.

I know, I know, the NFL isn't what it used to be.

Only 24 months removed from teenage status, Kobe Bryant is basically your run-of-the-mill adolescent: equal parts exuberant and immature. Plus he dunks on Dikembe Mutombo in his spare time.

Walk into any broadcast journalism class at any communications school nation- wide, and some middle-aged media mogul cut directly from the image of Edward R. Murrow will be preaching composure, stressing objectivity and emphasizing elocution. In other words, don't be Dick Vitale.

I used to watch the 1989 New York Giants' defense brutalize opposing offenses. I recoiled at Lawrence Taylor's incoherent yet nonetheless intimidating rants, cowered at the spine-cracking spear Leonard Marshall delivered between Joe Montana's shoulder blades and thought to myself: "Who unleashed these monsters?

First a presidential election and a nation's future hinging on a dimpled chad. Then Alabama, North Carolina and every other collegiate institution in the western hemisphere engage in a heated check-writing contest for the services of Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer, whose personality is often confused for that of a dimpled chad. Next thing you know, Aaron Brooks is going to be a starting quarterback in the NFL.

I've heard many a hypothesis as to how a football program ranked as high as sixth can so precipitously plummet in just two short seasons - how a team borderline elite and perennially powerful only 24 months ago can morph into mediocrity, or even worse, outright abomination.

This isn't your father's college football anymore. It's your trigonometry teacher's.

Oh, how we love to rip Ronald Curry. He's our whipping boy, and when anything dares run amiss in our perfect little college lives, there's always ol' Benedict Curry to blame.

Bobby Knight's trachea-grabbing, secretary-belittling tactics did much to sully the once-venerated coaching profession. They also taught every leading university man from Charlottesville to Cheyenne one very important lesson: Carelessness kills.

Alas, the Virginia football team ... or what's left of the hamstrung hodgepodge after Dan Ellis' right leg crumpled beneath him, has the week off.

Joe Paterno was crying.

After Illinois performed a 63-21 woodshed job on his powerless Cavaliers in January, George Welsh promised a "reinvented corporation."

Historians will tell you the original Renaissance man was Leonardo da Vinci. If not Leo, then Benjamin Franklin or Thomas Jefferson are next in line.

Pete Gillen's brief two-year stint as Virginia men's basketball coach is a cheesy Matthew Perry romantic comedy waiting to be made.

As a true orange and blue blood -- one of those guys who judges his self worth by the number of Virginia football players who call him by name, one of those guys who knows the helmet size of the backup long-snapper - I should be sullen. I'm not.

The recruitment of Virginia basketball target J.C. Mathis has been more like a nine-month NyQuil infomercial than a never-ending episode of "The Bold and the Beautiful."
(04/27/00 4:00am)
Twenty-four hours before his son makes a final official visit to Georgia Tech, Johnny Mathis confirmed for the first time what had been speculated for months: Virginia is the heavy favorite in the heated race to land J.C. Mathis.
