Boo-hoo, they cry. The Cavs will never compete for an ACC title - let alone a national one - until they get a true center, a 6-11, 7-foot monster who can swat shots and dominate the paint.

Some of you may be angry with Darryl Strawberry. You're bitter that he threw away a Hall of Fame career in the sport you grew up on, wasting his life on cocaine and hookers, ducking child support payments and beating his wife. You watched from afar as the bizarre soap opera of his life spun out of control, as he learned he had colon cancer and then miraculously recovered, returning to baseball to help the New York Yankees win the 1999 World Series. But then came the seemingly inevitable relapse, and now Strawberry appears on the verge of collapse and perhaps even death.

Three days after getting bounced from the ACC Tournament in the first round, the Virginia women's soccer team had its collective feelings soothed by receiving one of 16 first-round byes in this week's NCAA Tournament.

The New York Yankees had their third straight ticker-tape parade Monday. When you weren't looking last week - and apparently you weren't, judging by the record-low television ratings - they won their fourth world championship in five years, the 26th in the storied history of the franchise.

Numbers might not lie, but this time they're fibbing a bit.

Two weeks ago, college basketball fans around the country celebrated the imminent arrival of the 2000-01 season at their respective Midnight Madness extravaganzas.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.-When Dan Ellis missed a start last season, backup David Rivers had the good fortune to make his first and only Division I start the next week against Georgia Tech and the ACC's most porous pass defense. This time around, with Ellis out with a nearly healed hamstring injury Saturday, Bryson Spinner ended up with Florida State. At Doak Campbell Stadium. Against a Seminole defense ranked sixth in the nation. Poor Bryson.

After reaching the NCAA Tournament in each of the last two seasons, the Cavalier women's volleyball team has experienced a frustrating first 20 games this year. Tuesday night in Chapel Hill, Virginia dropped two games under .500 with a lengthy 3-0 loss (15-7, 15-13, 18-16) to North Carolina.

At the risk of sounding like a crotchety old man, what in tarnation is going on in college football these days? When did everyone get so politically correct? It's almost enough to make a guy long for the days of leather helmets and drop kicks.

Tied at one with less than four minutes left, Wake Forest's Gabi Lieb scored the game-winning goal as the Demon Deacon women's soccer team handed the Cavaliers a deflating 2-1 loss in Winston-Salem last night.

Anyone who's anyone in the world of collegiate soccer knows to disregard the National Soccer Coaches Association of America poll at the beginning of the season. No one is silly enough to put stock in a system that starts off with teams ranked where they finished last year. They know enough to follow the simple logic that one season's plaudits should be based, strangely enough, on that season's performances.

The Virginia men's basketball team received a verbal commitment from 6-foot-3 guard Jermaine Harper yesterday, but waved goodbye to two prominent targets. Cave Spring shooting guard J.J. Redick will play for Duke and 6-10 power forward Jordan Collins chose N.C. State.

Did I miss something? Did someone announce George Welsh was getting fired? Maybe I'm out of the loop.

The Virginia women's volleyball team continued its rollercoaster season this weekend, splitting a pair of ACC road matches. The Cavaliers fell at Georgia Tech, 3-1, before heading to Clemson and winning by the same score.

Virginia freshman forward Alecko Eskandarian continued to pile up the goals, but he couldn't keep the Cavalier men's soccer team from swallowing a 3-2 overtime loss to unranked William & Mary last night in Virginia Beach.

So there I was in my half-furnished living room two nights ago, watching "Monday Night Football" and putting off all kinds of very necessary homework, when Terrence Wilkins makes a 27-yard touchdown catch for the Indianapolis Colts.

I know most of you Wahoos are kidding - or at least I hope you are - when you brand Ed Moses a loser because he is not bringing an individual gold home from Sydney. What scares me are the few among you who aren't kidding.

Early yesterday morning, U.S. swimmer Ed Moses was half a world away, applying the finishing strokes to a performance that earned him an Olympic silver medal in the men's 100-meter breaststroke.

DURHAM, N.C.-After a year handing off to Thomas Jones, quarterback Dan Ellis expects opposing defenses to devote an exorbitant amount of energy to stopping the Virginia running game. Even with Jones gone to the NFL, longtime understudy Antwoine Womack gives the Cavaliers a supremely talented tailback to spearhead their run-first offense. That kind of focus on the ground game is fine with Ellis, as long as opponents do as Duke did Saturday and give him free license to throw the ball.
