    It was because Sony pulled an Apple and got Microsofted by everyone else going to VHS

    We had both VHS and Betamax when I was a kid but dad felt like Betamax was the better option. "It's better quality and the tapes hold more!" is what I believe he said at the time. We had a couple hundred tapes at one point. Fast forward several years and his machine broke. He took it to a repair shop but was told it would be a while to get it fixed because Sony's shit was all proprietary and the part was only made by some guy living in a small village in Japan. Dad said fuck that and we made a clandestine trip to a local TG&Y dumpster one night to toss all the tapes. We never spoke of it again.

  2. I don't get the Drake angle. Sure, he's aJordan brand guy but he's a die-hard Kentucky fan! There's no way he'd just drop his allegiance to the wildcats on a whim. Do you think he's just some jock sniffer or something?????

    I've been to Whispers years ago. I remember they had a weird tipping system where you had to buy their own currency called "beaver bucks"(I shit you not) to tip the girls with. 

    I used to go to one that had an ATM filled with only the club money. You could tip or buy drinks with it but you weren't getting any real change back.

    I mean.....you did SEE that the parents are white, right?  So, umm, yeah......odds are going WAY down for your scenario.

    The rascal scooter guy looks (looked?) pretty white, it didn't seem to help him. I guess he could be "Zimmerman White". 

    Maybe they'll have a dog with them, that'll give the cops the go-ahead.

    parents who give their kids intentionally-alternate spelling of names.  shame on you, parents of dwyane wade and treveyon henderson

    My buddy did this to his oldest, he really regretted later on. He knew he was setting her up for a life of "No, it's actually spelled....".

    OU has to make a hire that keeps Caleb Williams around with Rattler already in the portal. 

    The local news last night said he is halfway into the portal, waiting to see who the coach is before making his final decision. It sure would be sad to see them start the third string QB in a bowl game. And by sad, I mean I'd laugh my ass off.

    What game did they make a shirt for?  Surely not us, but I hope it was for the lulz.  'stache is correct though.  It's not the schools, it's the local t-shirt makers trying to make a buck.  I should probably lighten up on the subject and just silently mock people in my head if I see them wearing one.   Around here, that means mocking aggy, so that helps.

    I wouldn't buy one today, but pointing out that there is a market for this stuff outside of us and aggy.

    I bought a 16-13 shirt as well but I can definitely remember a couple of years later that ou had their own scoreboard shirt. They aren't immune to looking like rubes.

    This season has been pure masturbatory schadenfreude for Okie State fans. After finding out they were being left behind Texas implodes and Lincoln Riley ghosts ou.

     

     

    I'll speak for only myself here but I never really cared about Texas that much. We weren't in the same conference for 50+ years, didn't play each other very much before the B12 was formed. I always wanted to win the games but it didn't carry the same weight with me. Same with A&M and Baylor and Tech. I guess it's like getting a step-sibling when you're in your 30s or 40's. Just be polite and keep it to small talk.

    They gonna march the band through the streets or something?

     

    Maybe they heard Dykes was coming and they're concerned about a rush of lesbians? Norman's a pretty progressive town, you know.

    (please be Dykes)

    Liberal is a long way from Hays, but he could have been visiting some Jucos out that way as well.

    If they're announcing that quick, it has to be a no brainer right?  You wouldn't rush to hire Joe coordinator that fast.

    Maybe they're just desperate and scared to be alone, like some chicks I've dated.

    You know, this was a debate on a radio show out here a few months ago.  Is Oklahoma the midwest, or the south?  I've always kinda thought midwest, but to be honest, haven't given the state of Oklahoma whole lot of thought in my lifetime.

    It's the south or southwest. Tulsa wants desperately to be considered midwest, from what my Tulsa bros tell me. 

    But my family is from southern Indiana and while that's the midwest, they're more southern than anything, I can tell you. So who knows?
