I've got this grass in some places that grows in long shoots from one place to another. When I try to pull it up some of the shoots are six feet long. What kind of grass is this and how do I get rid of it.

I can't identify the weed without seeing it, but here's a website from Virginia Tech with photos of weedy grasses that might help you figure out what it is: http://www.ppws.vt.edu/scott/w...

Once you identify the weed you can search the website for controls specific to that weed and your turfgrass type. Good luck with your lawn!
