     Poor Richie  Rod! Maybe he should have thought how His actions and his words would have an impact on those he left nehind when he crapped all over his own home!   He'll get no sympathy from me, I would agree that threats on a child are ridiculous and Ignorant people will say and do those things.

WVU Mountaineers and whoever is playing Michigan!
