  1. Cotton Bowl sun sets Hallowed stadium half full Orange all that remains
  2. Yeah, it's really sort of a perfect storm of circumstances. I think it'll be tougher to hold onto top QB recruits behind next year's Heisman winner Arch, after Ewers wins this year's Heisman and moves on to the NFL.
  3. It's Texas-OU. And ou still sucks.
  4. Ags had a "huge" upset over a "top 10" team, and don't appear. Texas doesn't even play, and makes an appearance as the conference savior. All as it should be.
  5. The resurrection of King Pimp Vandy was absolute greatness. Everyone knew it was coming since the final on Saturday night.
  6. Oh they watch. They watch every Texas game with fevered anticipation of the inevitable Great Humiliation. They just don't know anything about football and can't understand what they're seeing.
  7. Eh, they lose to bad Miss State teams in Starkville all the time. They lose to LSU frequently. And they'll lose to us. They are who we thought they were.
  8. The SEC seems like it sucks.
  9. Friday is my favorite day, but I love all of it and wouldn't miss any of them. We're not going to have F1 in my backyard forever, it gets less likely to continue here with each passing year, so I'll go as much as I can, while I still can.
  10. I like the ag who thinks Texas is going to overlook our fiercest and most hated rival. Sure, Jan.
  11. This has been remarkable. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it.
  12. And as it turns out, that's not why the milkmen went to the men's restrooms, anyway.
  13. Oh don't worry, it never ends. That's what the aggie thread on the main board is all about. Hilarity and joy is their gift to us, and they give it so freely. Yeah when their new guy did it to Duke it was good bull, and when Schloss did it to TCU it was good bull, but when Schloss did it to them, all hell broke loose. They are some whiney bitches no doubt.

    Pizza

    I can smell this picture. And it smells glorious.
  15. As I recall they approached a lot of good people. Elko was well down their list and the first time they approached him he also said no thanks. Then the ags went even further down the list, got more rejections, had the weird thing with Stoops, and eventually circled back and increased their offer to Elko. So he was both their 8th and 13th choice...
  16. Every generation has it own lingo. Hep cats, cool, groovy, far out, can you dig, totally awesome, radical, bad, bogus, ice, dope. It's specific and intentional, a way to distinguish themselves from previous generations and express a sense of identity and belonging. And people always give nicknames to common items or terms. As noted above, a hundred dollar bill can be a Benjamin, a benny, a c-note, a hundy, a hundo, and probably several more I've never heard of. Nothing new here. Stop being Ohio and start vibing.
  17. Brent Venables decided it should be called a tuddy.
  18. Bart Vaginables thinks the song "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette illustrates excellent examples of irony.
  19. OK let's check. TAMU's first season in the SEC was 2012, after a disappointing 2011 campaign in the B12 that ended up 7-6 (4-5 conference). Game 1 of their inaugural season was a home conference game against Florida, which they lost 20-17. So unless simply the act of sewing on the SEC patch itself, is a significant part of the grind, this loss can't be attributed to the "SEC grind." Their next two games are against their typical non-conference scrubs, SMU and South Carolina State (which I'd never even heard of) and they won those games 48-3 and 70-14. No evidence of any grindage there, but they're pretty hapless opponents after all. Next game is against an SEC grinder Arkansas, which they won 58-10, no real evidence of a buildup grindy-ness for that one. Then they barely beat a bad Ole Miss 30-27. Is this an example of The Grind taking its toll? The Rebels were 7-6 (3-5) that year. Not sure how grindy that seems. Next up was a non-conference but ranked LaTech who they barely beat 59-57. Maybe LaTech gets some SEC grindy-ness of its own, just by being in the same state as a traditional SEC power? Speaking of that traditional SEC power, LSU beat them the next game 24-19. At Kyle Field, at ... 11 AM. So perhaps the SEC grind really is kicking in? Except their next two games they blow out Auburn 63-21 and Miss State 38-13. Guess that SEC Grind really isn't much of a factor after all? Especially considering the following week they beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa, 29-24. Last two games are a blowout of cupcake Sam Houston and a blowout of the other SEC newcomer Mizzou, 59-29. Moving from the "BDF" to the SECSECSEC didn't seem to affect them much. Their two losses came to good teams, and their wins came against a bunch of really bad teams other than Alabama. All it really demonstrates is that, just as we've said for years, the SEC has middlin and bad teams just like everyone else, and beating them is no more of an accomplishment than beating the middle and bottom of any other conference.
  20. Only time I ever have, is when it was specifically a conference championship t-shirt or hat.
  21. Absolutely one of my favorite songwriters, RIP.
  22. Yeah, pretty clear they don't understand exactly what "their best" actually looks like.
  23. Same for Western Europe. In France I once ordered a pizza "avec oeuf" thinking, cool, it's gonna be sort of like a delicious plate of Tex-Mex enchiladas with a fried egg on top. Nope. Those MFers brought my pizza out, set it down on the table in front of me, and then cracked a raw egg right over the top of it. Walked away as if nothing was amiss. My French companions told me, "it's okay, the pizza is still hot and cooks the egg." The pizza was not still hot and it did not cook the egg. But I ate it anyway, wasn't terrible. Fried egg on pizza is of course quite tasty, not surprisingly. I've been known to take a leftover slice of Conan's, warm it up in the oven the next morning, fry an egg, and drop it on top. Délicieuse.
  24. Did you use a fine mesh strainer when transferring the slurry out of the blender? That's what I used to do when using our standard beehive Osterizer. Now we have a Vitamix and after 90 seconds of blending, there's nothing left but liquid.
  25. Given the woeful state of disrepair of Russian equipment being used in Ukraine, and the obvious poor training the Russian military has received, can we be certain that this was intentional rather than a poorly trained pilot flying a badly malfunctioning aircraft?
