  1. Also the Hillsborough disaster in 89 spelled the end of standing GA seating. That’s cooled thing down a bit too.
  2. Huh? My point was only that there was no large conference bidding war for SMU. They were there yesterday and would have been there 2 years from now if the ACC required their services. No aging well about it. BTW, this was a bold and savvy move by SMU and something they had to do and they found a way to do it. Certain risks involved but languishing in the AAC was death.
  3. They’d all love to do that but would also like $38mm a year also if it’s not too much trouble.
  4. Or college station if someone's just looking for a day trip...
  5. Story I heard way back when was this: Manziel, his sister, mom and dad didn’t have a pot to piss in as you might expect, but an uncle, maybe mom’s brother, hit a nice lick doing something, selling ranches maybe. He gifted each of them $200k or so, (probably to get them off his ass) and that was why manziel was Mr Drinks On Me for the aggy years and where the family money myth began. Of course they all pissed it away which is why dad was back to selling Toyota’s in a few years. Not sure if true but it explains some things.
  6. Don’t disagree with much of what you say and no love lost for TCU, but they have been major conference affiliated for 83 of the last 95 years more or less. Hell, they have the same number of top 25 finishes (12) as ND since 2000 and are 3-0 versus Stanford since 2007. Hard to lump them in with those others over the last 25 years.
  7. Baylor did the same thing when they built the toilet bowl. Ian McCaw booked a one-time donation and bond sale proceeds as general revenue or something. At a glance it looked like they were in UT fundraising territory for the year. Did not know aggy did the same thing. Figures.
  8. Not like SMU is going anywhere. ACC can tape a dollar to them and add later if you require emergency measures.
  9. RIP. Florida law enforcement are issuing $500.00 tickets to double red flag violators aggressively now as they try to just keep people alive.
  10. Pretty well just overlay the roller coaster meme and it should give a pretty clear look at expectations.
  11. And no end in site to the generational madness. 75 years from now some Jones with a Habsburg Jaw will be wearing white tube socks and calling the shots at fall training camp.
  12. Well he was holding it sideways so Mixon knew it was real.
  13. These guys are not just coaches anymore. They are CEO's of multi-million dollar enterprises. Some are never going to figure that out it seems.
  14. The scripture by Woody Allen: One. . . And the Lord made an bet with Satan to test Job’s loyalty and the Lord, for no apparent reason to Job, smote him on the head and again on the ear and pushed him into an thick sauce so as to make Job sticky and vile and then He slew a 10th part of Job’s kine and Job calleth out: “Why doth thou slay my kine? Kine are hard to come by. And Job’s wife saw this she wept and the Lord sent an angel of mercy who anointed her head with a polo mallet and of the 10 plagues, the Lord sent one through six, inclusive, and Job was sore and his wife angry and she rent her garment and then raised the rent but refused to paint.
