  1. Best back of the bullpen in MLB!
  2. Do they have pearl snaps on those jerseys?
  3. Some of us actually like being part of the South and don’t reflexively hate Southern heritage. We’re Texans first and foremost and we acknowledge that we have a lot in common with our neighboring states.
  4. We’re much more like UGA, UF, Tennessee and Alabama than Berkeley. Hopefully, UNC and UVA join the SEC soon. They fit in very well with us. So does Michigan but they won’t join the SEC. Our fans would have hated being in the PAC 12. Thank God that never happened.
  5. And much better football, fan experience at road games and closer cultural fit. It’s a win-win on every level.
  6. You’re delusional if you think our peer schools in the SEC — UF, UGA and Vandy are more racist than UT.
  7. Bama has a very pretty campus, hot girls and a great football program. UGA has the same and is a pipeline to Atlanta jobs. They also have a traditional college social scene with traditional college students (meaning not a lot of part-timers or older students). OU and Arkansas give great financial aid packages to good students from Texas. There is a huge LSU alumni base in Houston and it’s a natural draw for kids of their alums. Ole Miss is a great party school and Auburn has a good engineering program. There are a shit ton more attractive traditional college experiences to be had in the SEC than schools other than UT in Texas. No one wants to go to Lubbock. Cougar High and UTD are commuter schools with lots of non-traditional students. Baylor and TCU are private and Christian which is a turnoff for some. Rice is elite but is a small school with a a crappy football team and nerdy social scene. aggy is fucking weird. It’s a major problem for Texas that we don’t have a bunch of schools other than UT to offer what the other SEC schools provide. Cougar High tried to mandate that all freshman have to live on-campus. Great idea to change their commuter school reputation. Unfortunately for them, John Whitmire and other idiots raised a fuss about no longer catering to non-traditional students and they backed off.
  8. He’s absolutely right. We would have one another one last year if not for Dusty’s stupidity with his lineups
  9. They’ve shown him at least 3 times tonight. Miss his posts. He’s been missing for a several years.
  10. Smart baseball!! I need to pinch myself
  11. Come on Rake. Drive these guys in!!
  12. There’s always been HPD somewhere in the bullpen or near the dugout as long as I have been watching this team
  13. Florida is ranked higher than us for undergrad. We’re a better school overall when factoring in the Law School, McCombs and our other grad programs. UGA is very solid. Lots of Texas kids from the suburbs are at schools like Arkansas, Ole Miss and Alabama because of how hard it has gotten to get in to UT.
  14. I sure as hell don’t. Most UT fans are happy that we’re joining the best football conference in the land. We have a lot more in common with the SEC schools than any other conference. I absolutely hated the talk of us joining the PAC 12. Football season is going to be a hell of a lot more fun.
  15. You can’t be serious. Other than liberal arts majors that go to law school, they have hard time finding work straight out of school.
  16. You don’t know Laredo and South Texas. The seat would most likely flip Republican before someone like Jessica Cisneros would ever be elected. Republicans have made historic gains in the RGV and South Texas.
  17. So nice to drive in RISP and throw up a crooked number on the scoreboard.
  18. Singleton with 2 bombs in the same week. If I told you before the season than Singleton would be a better hitter than Bergman who’d believe it.
  19. I’m sure the leader of the UCLA protest hauled off in handcuffs supports traditional American values and not Marxist infused beliefs that are helping to destroy this country. Watch the video again and listen to the crap coming out of her mouth.
