  I LOVE that song by the Casinos
  this week.  I think it's
  one of the prettiest "pop" songs ever
  written and a great slow dance song.
  :) I keep getting a flash back of a
  girl/boy party in 6th or 7th grade.
  I remember slow dancing with
  someone - maybe Kevin.  I can
  almost see the room (someone's
  basement/ rumpus room) and I
  know the guy had on a sweater but I
  can't quite see the
  face.  I'll keep you posted.  Anyway -
  thanks for playing it for me.  
  Take care.    B.  -  4/25/2008

About The Artist
 
Major Harris (born February 15, 1968 in Spartanburg, South Carolina) is a former college football quarterback for West Virginia University during the 1980s. Harris was a 1989 All American and finished third and fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting in 1988 and 1989, respectively. He was also the ECAC Player of the Year in 1988 and 1989. He is now an assistant wide receiver coach for North Hills High School.

Harris was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2009.
Early life
Major started his
career as a senior
in Brashear High School in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (he would later be called the Brashear Bullet by West Virginia announcer Jack Fleming). One of Major's most memorable plays was when he threw a game winning 79 yard touchdown pass to Tony Horne on the last play of the game against Indiana High School. Major was named Pittsburgh's high school football player of the year and a Sporting News Top 100 prospect

College career
Freshman (1987)
Major was interested in attending the University of Pittsburgh, but the coach, Mike Gottfried, was only interested with him at defensive back. Harris took another offer at West Virginia, where coach Don Nehlen was trying to rebuild the quarterback position. Nehlen set up a football camp for two-hand touch football and stated, "The kids couldn't touch him."

Nehlen signed Florida prep quarterback Browning Nagle along with Harris and redshirted them for the season. Harris and Nagle battled it out in spring practice and Harris eventually won the job, so Nagle transferred to University of Louisville.

Harris struggled at first, but when the fifth game came around at East Carolina University Harris stood out and ended West Virginia's season with a bid to the Sun Bowl against Oklahoma State University. West Virginia lost, but Harris rushed for over 100 yards. That season, Harris threw for 1,200 yards and 10 TDs on only 77 completions. Harris also rushed for 615 yards and 6 TDs.

[edit] Sophomore (1988)
The following season, he was nearly perfect in directing West Virginia to the school’s first-ever undefeated, untied regular season and a matchup against No. 1-ranked Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl for the national championship. In getting the Mountaineers to the Fiesta Bowl, Harris baffled opponents all season with his daring, unpredictable, wide-open style. Against Boston College, Harris recorded a career-high 297 passing yards. Harris' dazling play was never more evident than in West Virginia’s 51-30 dismantling of long-time nemesis Penn State. Harris outgained the entire Penn State team, 301-292, and produced the school’s most exciting run ever in the first quarter of that game. That run and several more like it helped him finish fifth in the Heisman Trophy race that year and earn ECAC player of the year honors. His season passing totals were 1,915 yards and 14 TDs, while he rushed for 610 yards and 6 TDs. He had the highest passing-efficiency rating of any college quarterback during the season, and totaled 2,348 total yards of offense and averaging 8.4 yards per touch. As the Mountaineers traveled to their first ever National Championship game, the Irish were favored. But on the third play of the game, Major Harris was hit and separated his shoulder. Harris stayed in the game, but didn't throw the ball that much, scrambling instead. At halftime, Harris fixed his shoulder, but he still could not throw deep. West Virginia never threatened Notre Dame's lead, and the Fighting Irish won 34-21.

[edit] "The Play"
Against Penn State in 1988, as the play clock wound down, Harris forgot the play he had called in the huddle. As soon as the ball was snapped, the entire West Virginia team went in one direction and Harris went the other. He faked out the entire Penn State team leaving no less than seven tacklers grabbing air on the way to a thrilling touchdown—and one of the more memorable plays in WVU history. The Mountaineers won the game 51-30.

Harris' coach, Don Nehlen, said of the run, "I had called 37 and he ran 36. Everybody else on our offense went one way, and Major went the other. He literally ran through the Penn State defense for a touchdown of about 30 yards. After he scored, Major came to the sideline and apologized. He said, "My fault, Coach." People still ask me about that play all of the time...If there was a contest for most exciting player, Major would win it hands down."

[edit] Junior (1989)
As a junior in 1989, Harris was equally spectacular despite not having as strong a supporting cast. Against Rutgers during the season, Harris had a career-high 163 rushing yards. He passed for 2,058 yards and rushed for 936 yards to finish third in the 1989 Heisman Trophy balloting on the season. He earned first team Kodak All America honors and was a second team AP and Football News All American. Like 1988, Harris was again voted ECAC player of the year. That year, Harris led the Mountaineers to a Gator Bowl game, but they lost to Clemson 27-7. It is often regarded that the poor play in the game by Harris was due to the Mountaineers' poor blocking.[citation needed] Harris threw for 2,058 yards and 17 TDs on the season, along with 936 and 6 TDs rushing. Harris set school records that season for most total offense and quarterback rushing yards. Both records, however, have since been broken.

[edit] Legacy
Harris, alongside more recent Mountaineer Pat White, are widely considered the greatest quarterbacks ever to play at West Virginia. Harris established a WVU record with 7,334 total yards and became the first of just a handful of quarterbacks in Division I history to pass for more than 5,000 yards and rush for more than 2,000 yards in a career. His 2,161 rushing yards rank eighth on the school all-time rushing list. Harris' longest pass of his career was 70 yards and his longest run was 75 yards.

Harris was announced to the 2009 College Football Hall of Fame induction class.

Professional career
NFL and CFL
After the completion of his junior year, Harris was convinced to leave school early and was drafted in the 12th round by the Los Angeles Raiders in the 1990 NFL Draft, though he would never play a down in the National Football League. Instead, Harris played one injury-filled season in the Canadian Football League with the BC Lions.

Arena Football League and PSFL
Then Harris spent parts of the next three years in the Arena Football League, where his 429 rushing yards in 1991 stood as a single-season league record until Michael Bishop ran for 459 yards in 2005. That same season, his debut, Harris passed for 940 yards, 9 touchdowns, and 9 interceptions. The next season, 1992, Harris passed for 837 yards and 12 interceptions, then finished his AFL career with 382 yards and 8 touchdowns in 1993.

  Love Won't Let Me Wait

The time is right
You hold me tight
And love's got me high

Please tell me, yes
And don't say no, honey
Not tonight
I need to have you next to me
In more ways than one

And I refuse to leave
Till I see the morning sun
Creep through your window pane
'Cause love won't let me wait
Not one more minute, baby

The time is right
Turn down the lights
And take my hand

We'll take a flight
And spend the night
In a wonderland

Now move a little close to me
You owe it to yourself
And I will selfishly
Take a little for myself
And it's because of you
That love won't let me wait

No, listen girl

I need your love so desperately
And only you can set me free
When I make love to you
We'll explode in ecstacy
And I won't take the blame
That love won't let me wait

No, love won't let me wait
Temperature's risin
'Cause you're so tantilizin'
(Love won't let me wait)
Awww listen girl
Love won't let me wait
