  1. “Go Birds!” too. Hook’em!!!
  2. ELGSES Fans should be making shirts this week! Hook’em!!!
  3. I’ll give you an example of unfortunate fandom. Wife and I moved to Lake Charles, for her job, prior to the ‘96 Football season. The local Fox Channel covered both the Beaumont(TX) and Lake Charles(LA) markets, based in Lake Charles. If there was a “conflict” of Saints and Cowboys playing their games in the same 12 or 3 window, the local Saints fans were forced to go to the LC Civic Center to watch the “free” telecast or find a place/sports bar with satellite telecast for the Saints. This situation lasted for at least two seasons before better cable/online access occurred so one could watch the Saints at their home. Hook’em!!!
  4. One of my financially rewarding times was when I was able to drop my son off my auto insurance. I told him he had 90 days to get his own plan after college and getting a job. It dropped roughly 50% that day. Hook’em!
  5. You are so correct and thank you for pointing it out. It must be nice though to count on one hand how many home losses a school has experienced in 20+ years. Hook’em!!!
  6. That’s pretty rough, but thank you for your insight. Hook’em!!!
  7. Too soon. Hook’em!!!
  8. Why does the NCAA promote 2025 on both teams patches/jerseys and painted on the field? I understand today is 1/20/2025, but the football season was 2024. When UT played Navy, Jan 1, 1964, they were still considered 1963 National Champions. Hook’em!!!
  9. ND with the ball for ~10 min of Q1. That’s how they can win against a more talented team (on paper), but you have to only win once. Hook’em!!!
  10. Watts for ND is special. Hook’em!!!
  11. You are so correct. The Manning clan (IMO)have really prepared him media wise earlier than his years/experience. That is priceless going forward at a place like Texas. Already the Heisman front runner, according to Vegas. Hook’em!!!
  12. Lou’s grandson was a walk-on QB at UT and one time I was so fortunate to be in the locker room prior to KO/pregame and Lou gave the pre-game speech/talk. I was so fired up that in my 30s I wanted to slip on a uniform and run out there. I wish I could! Hook’em!!!
  13. Awesome - and thank you! Hook’em!!!
  14. Come on CTJ, the dude has talent off the charts. Surely someone besides a CC will give him a chance? Hook’em!!!
  15. I got blown up/torched in this exact thread yesterday. I couldn’t remember which one, as I’ve been off today and on Surly more than usual. All is well and that’s why I love Surly! Hook’em!!!
  16. Thank you for HR note #1 on situational awareness. Hook’em!!!
  17. I tried to edit, but it got deleted?? Anyways, cleaning the grooves on the irons and going through the golf bag pockets. Threw away year old trail mix and an unopened bottle of water. I did find a couple sleeves of “premium” golf balls during that process, so I have that going for me, which is nice. Hook’em!!!
  18. Listening to Jim Nance state a Titleist commercial makes me want to go out and play! He is such a great narrator. Many don’t know, but Jim played collegiate golf at Houston. He never made the traveling five, but Houston was very strong back then! You can google their roster from the early-mid 80s. I know it’s Hook’em!!!
  19. In the early 2000s LSU kicked Cecil Collins (RB) off their team, even though he lit up the TV screen his Freshman season. It was too much smoking pot or etc. Saban told him to hit the road so he landed a McNeese. Dude arrived on campus driving a huge Cadillac. Anyways two-three weeks into the season, the team flew home from a huge road win, App State or Youngstown St, but anyways after flying back to LC, he never left the airport parking lot. Let’s just say more than ounces of pot was found inside and in the trunk. His ass was passed out. He got kicked off the team of course. He was so good on film, I believe it was Jimmy Johnson (HC) with the Dolphins, drafted his ass in the 5th round. Didn’t even play a complete season before the draft. After really excelling in the preseason and a sure lock to be RB1, his dumb ass entered someone’s apartment, in his complex, and I think naked? Last I heard he was still incarcerated in Florida for something else. Hook’em!!!
  20. They’d have to double my salary to force me to live in B/CS, then I’d still have sleep on it. Hook’em!!!
  21. SA at the Rim had them all season. Just waiting to cash in I guess? Hook’em!!
  22. Earlier I forgot to mention, and sorry to derail the thread, but that guy that Lou Holtz came to Beaumont to see was a year ahead of me. Mical Padgett - linebacker late 80s-90s. He started for Dad as a Freshman and he’d already told David McWilliams what he had in HS. Dad was a roommate with David in the 60s. Lou came to speak at the TXHS coaching convention that summer and Lou actually remembered my Dad from DeSoto while he was at Arkansas during the 70s. Dad told him that he really needed to go see Mical, as he also knew David was ready to sign, just to give Mical that option. Hoookem!!!
  23. There was multiple seasons of that EMCC program on Netflix. Coach was a character and the Admin lady seemed to hold all of that shit together. Pretty good late night tv watching that didn’t disappoint a football guy. Hook’em!!!
  24. You are most likely correct. I did like that series on Netflix - Last Chance U or something like that. Hook’em!!!
  25. Pretty cool for those band kids and fans. Hook’em!!!
