Seems like a very technical track.
YLVA, N.C. — The 1,100-acre Pinnacle Park west of Asheville remains closed after a runner's foot was impaled by a nail purposely placed on a popular trail that leads to the Black Rock Summit.
Brian Barwatt, an engineer with the Department of Transportation, and the race director of the Assault on Black Rock, a trail race in Pinnacle Park in March, was at the park Monday with the Sylva police chief Davis Woodard, town maintenance workers and other volunteers scouting out more nails.
Since Saturday, 40 nails hammered into tree roots and logs have been found, Barwatt said.
“On Saturday we found eight in an isolated area and thought we had it contained, but when we explored more, we found it was more than we could handle ourselves and I called the police chief,” Barwatt said.
“We’re literally blowing every leaf off trail, and following behind with metal detectors. “It was a deliberate effort. Someone hammered 4-inch long galvanized nails and left them sticking out a half- to 1 inch, and at an angle so they’re like spikes.”

Lunardi just said you can make a strong argument that UK has the most impressive win in all of college ball this year with the W over Carolina.
A lot of basketball talking-heads out there that think UNC is the best team in the country....
The selection committee actually releasing the top 16 seeds every now and then makes Joe Lunardi and his sprayed on hair all the more useless unless you're a fan of a team on the bubble.
Lunardi used to drive me crazy but now I look at him like he's a cartoon character or something.
Too bad the SEC isn't like premier league. Time to send LSU down and bring up another team.
Not Kentucky. :100points:
I've done a 180 on Frank Martin. I used to think his bug eyed, bully act was over the top and ridiculous.
But he's toned it way down, always compliments Cal and UK, and his teams play damn hard.

Virginia, clearly.
Probably either home at Notre Dame or vs. Wisconsin in Maui. Can't be FSU on the road. Pittsburgh did that.
Little known fact: I'm Eskimo cousins with Melvin Booker.
True story. :fire::fire:
True story. :fire::fire:
Yeah but its a good thing it's not like the premier league when it comes to football !!!
UNC just has the feel of a team that makes a deep run. Can't put my finger on what but they seem like a good team.
Also, Gonzaga may break thru this year. Not because they're extra special or anything but mostly because the field is extra blehhhrghh
These past few days have just been bizarre. Had a couple of times where I forget that it's dead in the middle *** of February. Saw some cherry trees blooming. Poor dumb little trees are getting tricked BIG TIME. It'll probably snow 17 inches for the Masters this year.
Mentioned it before I am absolutely killing it right now. Work is stupid crazy. Everyone wants their **** knocked down all at once. Tax return maybe? Idk but it's nuts. May end up trading in the sorento for a Lamborghini or a king ranch or something who knows?? Idk.
congrats to mags on the bachelor thing. I know it's all in jest or whatever but that dude has dreamt about being the bachelor for years. This may be his best shot and he is nailing it. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he literally only did Hey kentucky just so he could do this bachelor thing. Congrats man-you did it
We are taking my in-laws and their 14 kids to myrtle beach next month

Wife went to an event in Frankfort tonight for some sort of Mayors night. Fischer was there and she refused to ask him if the GPS trees have tried to escape. Pussa.
They going to tip this thing off or should we push it back to 10:00?

Barbee sucks at everything except getting Cal to like him.
Underrated ------> Cal "not coaching as much" and screaming GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and acting like an annoying psycho the entire game.
Teddy already with one of those calls where he runs to get a good look at the alleged perpetrator of a foul, followed by emphatic arm movements.
