  1. It will be interesting to see if these players bitching about CC now change their tunes (and how) when their personal contracts come up for negotiation. If the CC era truly is here to stay and the revenue moves into a higher level, you know those players who have "given their all to keep the league going" will want their piece of the expanded pie. And that is fine, but will they give CC her due? Do they recognize that Caitlyn brings something new and fresh to the league that people have been needing, and in turn they try to cultivate more of whatever it is that's driving this groundswell change? Or do they try to get those fans to accept the old W, brushing this off as some flash in the pan?
  2. I wonder what the cutoff date is they have to raise this by. What a thrill to go and represent small town South Texas! You would think some corporate sponsors would help out.
  3. Schloss is going to build a helluva coaching tree here. Same here, but I'm also thrilled Galvan is returning. That kid has scrapper and leader in his aura.
  4. He failed to piss this Horn fan off. By the lack of responses here, seems he didn't fare too well in that quest. The lack of self-awareness grows more wearisome.
  5. Joey Freshwater seems to be taking up the mantle from Leach. And he's doing a great job so far.
  6. I contend that Bohls had the story for several weeks and wanted to break it, but CDC told AAS to hold off. Bohls then took it to the Chronicle which leans more aggy and used it to ink a contract with them. If Z prick or any other Chronicle contributor had broke it, it wouldn't have gotten the attention that it did coming from Bohls. Schloss was probably more upset about it being leaked than the actual question. They have more than enough grackles to suffice. Not crows, but close enough.
  7. I hope CDC figures out some way to feed Bohls some false shit that he'd be too gullible not to break. I anticipate a Texas Hate tell all coming out by Bohls. That's what he'll use to retire on since the 12th men will all swallow that shit hook line and sinker
  8. I think from here forward, A&M should be our little bother, not little bRother.
  9. The DNC played a very big part in tapping Allred. It wasn't so much state leadership. Roland was all over the state leading up to the primary. He logged like 8-10k miles in those last two months. I fully anticipated it would be a run off between he and Allred. Allred blew his doors off without even trying, which was truly surprising since Allred had no presence in the field. He blames that on Congress being in session and there's some logic to that. But since they got out of session, he's been AWOL as well. I think the DNC and Allred are trying to appeal to those Rs and independents who just won't pull a lever for a "radical progressive" over Cruz. They are looking for that crossover vote and not going for the progressive one that Roland appealed to. And with the D's dismal turnout record in the past decade, DNC seems to be putting its money behind someone that doesn't come off as this great threat to go in and start demanding a bunch of change. This is why he does a lot of preaching about working across the aisle and bi-partisanship. Hoping to draw that cross-over vote. That's the only explanation I can come up with. There are those who seem to think he sounds at times like Eric Johnson.
  10. I'm glad we finally have an AD that allows us to say this with confidence. That post DeLoss Dodds era was brutal.
  11. Wtf are they singing? "March t'wards the corndogs?"
  12. You know MTG will count that tip as part of her business dinner write off.
  13. Let's just say it's much easier to believe negative stories about Sanders because of all the things he's been caught out at already.
  14. Bert went on scholarship this month too. Good on him.
  15. I meant in B/CS where no one goes against the cult.
  16. Exactly. This is pretty unheard of, someone from the local media calling out any bad bull.
  17. I know this seems petty, but since when did led become lead? Aren't the doing the same with pled and plead?
  18. I'm surprised Yeoman's Veer wasn't mentioned. The Run and Shoot was under the Mouse Davis, but I figure Yeoman deserves some credit here since this list seemingly is to denote teams that came up with innovative things that changed the game. But a lot of these teams like OU simply took others' ideas and were more successful with them on bigger stages due to better athletes (at the time being recruited in questionable ways). Also have no idea why VT gets a nod because they had Vick. Could have said the same for Johnny Football and aggy, but the latter had one year of success, the former two. Unless it's silently marking that Vick's success marked the acceptance of black QBs, that they could master high power offenses that required them to use their heads as much as their athleticism?
  19. Not sure where to put this, so settled on here. Is there another university program out there as reviled as UT? Maybe ND? Fucked up and left stuff outside the quote. Too lazy to correct. Apologies. It Just Means More The University of Texas is used to always having its way in everything. But in the SEC, their arrogance will not be tolerated. Texas is about to discover what it is like to be treated as an equal. It will be fascinating to see how Texas adapts to its new home. The past bullying of Texas won’t work in college football’s best league. Yet old habits are hard to break. Enjoy your new home and circumstances, Bevo. You made the bed you are about to crap in.
  20. I have a guy who always asks me why I don't build up a personal armory and my response is "if the world is going to be run by the people with the biggest guns and not the biggest hearts, pretty sure I'd not like to live in that world". Can you imagine how colorless and bland that world will be? Plus P2025 will hit its brick wall when they ban online porn. And I don't mean just hardcore, but even the soft stuff like we see in IPIHB.
  21. Always exceptions to the rules. Still have to think a lot of kids' shots are screwed up permanently because of this.
  22. She has a great singing voice as well. During her speech, she sang a bit of an one of her sorority's songs, and she can definitely carry a tune too.
