Overriding default blog path with Views

here's the behaviour i am noticing.

the /blog path seems to render the my view the way i expect it to.

however, if i include /blog/taxonomyterm it reverts back to the default rendering of a blog. here is my view.

$view = new view;
$view->name = 'Blog';
$view->description = 'A Listing of all blog posts in chronological order';
$view->tag = 'blogs';
$view->view_php = '';
$view->base_table = 'node';
$view->is_cacheable = FALSE;
$view->api_version = 2;
$view->disabled = FALSE; /* Edit this to true to make a default view disabled initially */
$handler = $view->new_display('default', 'Defaults', 'default');
$handler->override_option('fields', array(

Sorry dude.

I gave it a shot with 2 displays, but still seem to get the desired result when i pass a term as an argument. it's not that big of a deal that it won't work... thanks for getting back to me.
