  1. I'm not sure what you're implying here. He's proven that he is, in fact, good enough to be the feature back. Can we improve? Sure. But not as a slight(ie. slander) to a guy who's done all he can for us and absolutely hates OU and aggie as much as we do and proves it on the field.
  2. When people say he's not good enough to be the feature back at Texas that's pretty close to slander no?
  3. I know it's hard, but they're fun to watch right now...even in losses. And the guys like Flagg, Nembhard, Christie, even PJ, who'll be here for a while, are worth it. Oh I agree...i'm hoping the gut all the old guys by the trade deadline. Russell too. heck I'm okay with getting something for Lively now too...he's tall injured guy now, and they never stay healthy. Not long term at least.
  4. As always, and as the Eagles proved last year, you add a great RB to a good team, not the other way. That's why I did NOT want Jeanty at all. Of course, who knew that the change in OC would make a pretty productive run game this year, and may even be better with a better RB...but we're getting great production for pennies right now.
  5. First time I saw this was in the Hard Knocks scene...like what owner does that? I mean it's cool the players and him are so crazy close like that sometimes. But I saw Jeffrey Laurie walking around saying "Go Birds" all half heartedly and was like..."does he even care"? Not that i wouldn't rather have him right now and their 2 SB's the last 8 years.
  6. 10k? damn... Tailgating...Serious Business.
  7. No...why would we? We were fed the bullshit that we wouldn't be penalized for that game, and we are. God this is such bullshit. Texas is, quite literally, out of the playoffs because of 3 losses. That's it. Bottom line. All of fucking this.
  8. I will NEVER look down on Wisner...yes we could have a more "elite" back there, and if they do find one great. But Wisner behind a good OL will be just fucking fine in this offense. Just need that Blue type off back to really throw some shit at them IMO. So sure, upgrade the position...but I won't be slandering him in the process.
  9. There will never be another like him. Wish he had gotten further or been around for the playoff era...imagine him on the big stage in the cotton bowl before playing ND and talking about Catholics
  10. With better OL play and, let's face it, a better Arch, he'll be even better next year...only worry would be other guys improving and/or getting more reps.
  11. This makes way to much sense to actually happen. First 2 teams are in...let the other 2 spots be decided by a play in. Texas couldn't bitch if we played Aggie again and lost and then were left out.
  12. I'll contend season 3 of Enterprise was on par with the best of the other series...but then Season 4 happened(other than the mirror verse episodes which I'm thankful for the eye candy). If they had only gotten to the Romulan war arc in the following season...
  13. We got another Luka/Brunson and/or Dirk/Nash situation here maybe... Will we fuck it up again? Also, Cooper is fucking clutch as hell. and he's getting over 20 a night now WITHOUT a 3 ball at all...dude may be even better than we think when adding his elite defense.
  14. I'm actually shocked he did any articles at all, when the precedent was set last year that he didn't write anything after the aggies lost to texas...
  15. This, THIS, is the type of play that I KNOW he can make but didn't nearly enough this year. A layered throw with touch, right on the money. Add in the pocket manipulation(not scrambling, but doing more what Dak does now...sliding, avoiding the rush, buying just a half second more to get the ball off) is a thing of fucking beauty. Actually, this is a TOUGHER throw than the ones I'm usally on my soap box about(the wide open crossers and slants that are just "Off" throws.) He does THIS more and he's going to be a fucking stud. Absolutely...maybe it is just the pocket. But if he makes more throws like this, and not the ones where he misses a wide open crosser, or throws a slant the WR's feet and he'll unlock the offense, and his game, even more. Well Bama did lose 3 games last year and missed the playoffs too...and honestly, lost 2 games it shouldn't have this year. Even OSU/Georgia missed the playoffs a couple years ago. Sometimes you just have a step back...it wasn't much of one considering how bad the OL/Running Game, and even the QB was for stretches. They still won 9 games, and went 3-2 vs the Top 10 while going 3-0 over our Rivals. If this is a down year, I can't wait for a "not so down" year, lol. I know we ALL thought Arch had overthrown this after making an amazing play to escape the pocket...but the much maligned Wingo made a great fucking catch here too. Sometimes you just need both guys to help each other out.
  16. Removed but yes it was actually very good...fast forward through the snoozefest Washington/Giants segments. Eagles is fun for the lulz, but the Cowboys parts are good. Say what you want about Shotty, but the dude seem to be perfect for the Part of HC. Yes he's learning on the job, and the game day shit needs to improve(but let's be real...there are 10+ year HC's that still fuck up time management and game calling situations). We may have backed into a decent coach...doesn't mean shit as long as Jerry is still in charge. But it's nice to hope a little I guess.
  17. Wait that's still the biggest? I know even back then, they didn't have options like today...but that's still a crazy number for college football.
  18. Wait you don't think Arch or anyone will play..at all? If so why even fucking watch it?
  19. I feel like every record that's set, is just Dallas breaking their own records. It was a monster matchup for the NFL. Dallas already sells itself, then bring in the KC dynasty in a playoff implication matchup, and a new record is set. Oh yeah...which is why the whole "Dallas conspiracy" for refs and shit is such bullshit. Imagine a SB in 2025/26 with the Cowboys...against whoever. The Cheifs, or the Bills again, or Pittsburgh again...the ratings would be obscene.
  20. Rocky Mountains, Plains, and East Coast getting auto bids would suck. All the at large would come from other places.
  21. Lol Just a "Texas" Division. Would never go for it, but 8 auto bids, and then 4 at larges to keep it at 12...or maybe you go to 16 and have 8 at larges. Couldn't NO ONE bitch about being left out. If you win your conference you're in...then they just need to use actual metrics and not opinions to get the next 4-8
  22. I knew the number would be high...but fuck that's astronomical.
