Maryland Football Players "Tired of Being Mediocre"
Many fans of the Maryland football team may be excited for the promise of future success, with a slew of highly touted recruits making their way to College Park...eventually. For current players the future is now, and the more seasoned Terps have experienced a career plagued by mediocrity. But, don't take it from me...

This particular writer/fan is not too content with the time slot that the Maryland vs. Georgetown game received during the 24-hour Tip-Off Marathon given the fact that it will be played around the same time as other premier college basketball games, forcing people to "channel surf." I personally will avoid this problem by watching re-runs of Home Improvement on Nick at Nite.
