  1. But I worked though. 1 catch for 3 yards. If you’ve told me that pre-game I’d thought he got hurt in Q1 or Texas won by 20+. Hook’em!!!
  2. And like you, I hold John Wayne in the Mount Rushmore of my personal actors. Just saying both were great in their own right, but in different times and eras. Kind of like saying who was better between Street and VY. Both immortals IMO, but that’s my opinion. Hook’em!!!
  3. Through my “burnt orange” colored officiating goggles, Helm pointed directly at the opponent he blew up on the sideline during his reception. Simply going back to celebrate with teammates in the huddle/sideline would’ve garnered zero penalties and leave no question for an official. IMO but I digress. Hook’em!!!
  4. Plus Poona (95) is now with the Chargers. As quirky as Jim Harbaugh is, part of me likes his schtick. Hook’em!!!
  5. Dicker = 6 Texans = 10 At the half. Rooting for the Texans, but like the Chargers uniforms, if that makes any sense. My wife says who cares. After last night, just relieved to be able to still watch football instead of some “house wives arguing” show or MFng QVC in the living room. Hook’em!!!
  6. Stop with the Sam vs Quinn comparisons. Two totally different players, which I love and admire both for their efforts on the 40. But hey, apples to oranges, ok: Sam = John Wayne Quinn = Brad Pitt Just for an example. Like/love each other over time, but to say one is better than another is just opinionated. Hook’em!!!
  7. Many would like to have D Ryan’s success over the previous decades. It’s happened to others as towns/school districts have grown and the Goliath is taken down a notch or two with the addition of newer schools within the district. Converse Judson (SA) is a prime example! Hell they can barely make the playoffs now with .500 teams getting in. Hook’em!!!
  8. The “quality loss” measured along with the assumption of victory is the fuel that has driven aggy football for decades. Hook’em!!!
  9. Old man rant - 72 hours ago, weather threats of snowy/ice conditions in D/FW, wife insisted that my son and I stay home (driving from SA), so she assumed we’d want to go watch the game at my BIL’s house! Hell, if I ain’t physically at the game, she knows I’m a “wreck” and would rather pace back and forth in front of my bedroom TV (actual better clarity) than holler after most plays in the living room. I am NOT a hospitable game watching guest! I like to think I know too much and they can hear me, according to my wife. Hook’em!!!
  10. Outside of Nick’s last name spelling, yes you are correct. We’ve got two years with Arch to rise to the ultimate prize, as a team and individual player. He will go to the NFL after hopefully two amazing seasons and so much program defining success to hold on to. Of course all this is forward thinking, but I really think he has the tools to be awesome. Maybe eventually even be better than his Uncles, as he has Grandpa’s speed and agility. Hook’em!!!
  11. ~1/3 of OSU’s pass total happened on the last play of the 1st half. It’s actually amazing that it wasn’t reviewed as “lineman downfield,” because on initial viewing, that was the first thing I thought, as I saw three down field blockers. I just couldn’t verify if the RB was behind the LOS at the time. The 3 OL were at least +5 downfield and that call is on the Side Judge. I was at my BIL’s (non-football guy, but UT Alum), so he wouldn’t understand why I would want to review a play/DVR for my conscious. I did holler it at the TV though, which I then had to explain the rule. Hook’em!!!
  12. And I agree with you on the “gray area” of an officials thinking. The only problem is it only takes one official to see it, throw a flag, and it’s not reviewable. It can, however, be overruled by the white hat, which this wasn’t. Hook’em!!!
  13. In the Michigan game, he pointed directly at the player he beat for the EZ catch. It’s the same as tossing the ball to the opponent or holding it in front of his face - post play. Hook’em!!!
  14. Quinn helped “right the ship” post 5-7. Many forget he skipped his Senior (seasoning) year as a QB in HS to go to OSU. Very little actual plays, outside of practice, while at OSU he was really still like a true really hyped Freshman when he came to the 40. Quinn helped rally the troops, get some better recruits, and started the foundation of where we are today. Remember when Bama came to Austin and he was lighting them up, prior to his sack/injury! Each year at UT, healthy Spring/Fall camp showed improvements in Quinn, but each consecutive seasons involved injuries where he missed time/games. This year the oblique was worse than let on (no deep balls) and then the ankle. It wasn’t until the post season that he was almost 100%. I wish him nothing but the best for his future playing career and thank him for what he did wearing the Burnt Orange! Hook’em!!!
  15. Wrong - slow mo, which the TV ref had time during the review for possible fumble, should’ve buzzed in and said we had targeting on #8, plus no fumble. IMO. Hook’em!!!
  16. Plain and simple, it’s considered taunting. The same would’ve been (hypothetically) if a defender sacked Ewers and threw the “Horns down” or “throat slash” in Ewers face - post play. Hook’em!!!
  17. So ready for Arch to take control of the offense and team. The play tonight that he ran for the first, while reviewing it for a possible fumble, the dumb asses didn’t “think” to possibly review that play for targeting? It was never mentioned as a possibility by the TV crew, as I kept hollering that they were looking for the wrong thing. I really think Arch was concussed by that blow to the back of his head and that’s why Sark didn’t send him in there when we had the ball under 3:00 with 1st and Goal. Hook’em!!!
  18. Gunnar isn’t the reason we lost this game by any means, but his “finger pointing” to a defender during the Michigan game, I stated here that he was very lucky to have not caused the team a “post-play” unsportsmanlike 15 yard penalty. Many on here thought I was ridiculous at the time, even though I officiated TXHSFB for almost decade. I would’ve flagged him! At that time and game the opponent would have the choice to enforce the 15 on the try or KO. Today it was still a 1st, but erased the gain - 15 yards! You will never know the future repercussions of the “next play” until it occurs. Fortunately it was a great pass/catch to make up the yards, but man, all you had to do was not point at the defender you blew up. Hook’em!!!
  19. Great job ND Joe. Hopefully we’ll see y’all on the 20th. Hook’em!!!
  20. Nothing like a “beer run” at 10:00 on a work night! Been there and done that. That’s why I implemented a garage fridge about 5 years ago. Hook’em!!!
  21. Maybe he’ll get to play against the Horns like the Clemson QB? Hook’em!!!
  22. ND Joe - so you say there’s a chance? Hook’em!!!
  23. Rooting for you and the Irish ND Joe, at least until the 20th. I had ND vs Texas in my CFB bracket on ESPN this year. Hook’em!!!
  24. The “fire proof” safes, which my guns are stored, are most likely the only standing objects in that disaster. Sad to say but true. Millions+ $$$ homes, with a standing safe is a target for many. Not just guns, but jewelry and cash. LA County SD should be on major patrol for the areas already wiped out. Hook’em!!!
