  1. You don't want to see pix. She was so fat, I took her picture and the negative weighed three pounds.
  2. Christ. Seven years of college down the drain. Might as well join the fucking Peace Corps.
  3. I wouldn't say flat, exactly. Why, at night you have to stand on a dime to see the lights of Topeka.
  4. Don’t ever do that. It just takes the energy right out of you. She left me, though. Found somebody even uglier than she was. That’s life. Who can explain it?
  5. In all its radiant GLO-ry. Can I get an amen?!
  6. Frau Blucher glue.
  7. Everybody knows that Chiles oughta starts.
  8. LBGTQ ostracized in agggy-land. Have to be subtle and circumspect when riding the hershey highway.
  9. Yeah, that's about how I see it too. After waaaay too many Maryland flashbacks and Kool-Aid hangovers, I've sworn off the hard stuff until I see us in action. I'll hope for the best but won't be surprised at a bump in the road or two.
  10. But, but . . . Ann Richards will make us take Baylor with us. That'll uneven things.
  11. Filtered mud mined from the bottom of the Deleaware River and only umps are allowed to handle . . . No, wait; that's baseballs. For football, we use filtered Bevodung mined from the bottom of the Silver Spurs' trailer.
  12. Kristofferson nailed it: "He's a walking contradiction, party truth and partly fiction/ taking every wrong direction on his lonely way back home." I guess we're all entitled to apply that to whomever we think it fits.
  13. Agreed. But it sure helped alienate the fan base and they're the ones who ultimately pay the bills -- the gate, concessions, merchandise, and far more importantly, by driving TV revenue. MLB is still around, sure, but it's not the big dog anymore, and hasn't been for a long time. Free agency and strikes have played major roles in its decline. Bottom line: The damned ol' law got in the way. Funny how that happens. (Can you say "NIL?" I knew you could.)
  14. Free agency ruined baseball. Just sayin/ . . .
  15. "Never apologise, never explain." --Winston Churchill
  16. Yeah, I remember all those "insider" posts saying, "Ah, don't worry about Carrington going to USC. It's no big deal. We'll be fine." Riiiight.
  17. We seem to be missing out on some much-needed 'croots--'croots the 9.95'ers kept telling us we could sign. Are we just getting outbid or what the fuck else is going on? (I'd post this over in the recruiting board but those fuckers are crazy over there.)
  18. Cool story, dude. Way to go.
  19. I'd love to help you out. Which way did you come in?
  20. Bet not everybody knows that Tommy Facenda was John Facenda's brother by another mother. Tommy wore a blue cap for a while. (Anybody?? * *crickets* *)
  21. I don't know if this has been covered upthread, but is there a projected decline in sales of traditional institutional merchandise because of the emergence of new off-book, athlete-branded merchandise? I.e., if we assume that Joe Sixpack has only so much disposable income to spend on football jerseys, and in the past he's used that to buy school-licensed Nike Longhorn apparel, what if he now decides instead to buy some made-in-China individual athlete gear? In short, will this new reality end up costing the Texases and Alabamas of the world?
  22. Are you saying he's "well-spoken?"
  23. "Consider it severance pay. Take the train."
