  1. Baron Batch was special.
  2. That's why little scatbacks like Welker, Taurean Henderson, and Eric Stephens were perfect in the Air Raid. Yeah, the running back culture as well as that of OL changed as much as anything else in the transition from Spike to Leach.
  3. Yep, tis the risk. Some of that is mitigated by inside screens attacking where the defense "should" have stayed home. On this particular play, there's a gif that shows the RB hits offtackle to the right side of the offense and middle pressure is never a factor. Just like any other offense, if the defense did achieve said pressure, yeah, the play is getting blown up. Edit: found it.
  4. False. It's on the south side of town in the Hub City. Not in Amarillo, but it has been in LBK for about 3 years or more. I agree they shouldn't be thrown on the field. Good luck policing that. Still have a problem on the 2 warnings, and then the visitors decide to do their thing. I'm glad it isn't banned, but also don't trust people to avoid shenanigans.
  5. Wordle 1,518 2/6 ⬜🟨⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  6. Tech people are too dumb to believe in our fairy tales, so we'll insult them until they believe in the sanctity of the rusty uterus. lolz. Fuck off. there's a reason the baseball threads work on this board. Y'all like your homer bullshit and can't believe everyone ain't subscribed.
  7. We can do it twice. Then penalty. Question: how will they know it is home fans?
  8. Lol, but talent reason doesn't support your story at all. I was told, 'Now we're paying them. See the difference?' No. there isn't a difference. All that changed was the medium for payment. aggy ain't the only institution with fairy tales. Just own it. But you can't. Homer announcerism is all you know.
  9. Traveling today, so I caught a break on the "damn it's boring without them!" feeling.

  11. 3 of those Yordan bombs were in one game...along with a Showrrea rocket past the flag pole that made Francis Scott Key take notice. Let's do it again...but train tracks or gas pump.
  12. Oh those dark times when Texas didn't out-talent other teams. I 'member...
  13. after dealing with kids, they move to black tar heroin.
  14. When we make our mortgage payment, I get an email updating me on the available equity to get a loan. What the fuck is wrong with people? I mean lenders and homeowners alike.
  15. Beef rib is big sexy, but for both taste and value- I prefer brisket. Maybe unpopular opinion, but I used to get beef ribs as a big treat or indulgence for self-reward; and I'd get halfway through it wishing I had gotten brisket instead.
  16. Jomboy is a bigger bitch than Neto. Gotdam...
  17. The Sammy Oktoberfest is reliable but sometimes a bit too sweet, IMHO. That won't prevent me from buying at least one 28-pack at Sam's though.
  18. There's an easy way to make them join a conference AND standardize scheduling. 9 Conference games. anything <9 equals a loss in the rankings. Period. 2 birds, one stone and all that jazz.
  19. Classic.
  20. There are many measures of Leach's greatness, whether it was his eventual coaching tree, his innovation and influence on the game, or even his focus on academics when players still followed a 4-5 year program- in case you forgot, he had RB Edward Britton sitting at a desk on the field during practice one year for not focusing on the books. His grad rates were relatively stellar, especially compared with what he inherited in 1999. Maybe it is by definition the Leach curse, but in his last season at Tech, one which was recognized as an absolute rebuilding campaign, his team went 9-4, including the Alamo Bowl he wasn't allowed to coach. In the subsequent 15 seasons, the Red Raiders never topped 8 wins, regardless of the circumstances. IMHO, that is an additional measure of the man's legacy.
