  1. This picture is of the UT team waiting on the coin toss of the ‘63 TX-OU game. My Dad is to the far right, next to the clapping player.

  2. Liucci: "Sources are still very confident behind the scenes on Evans. In fact, they feel they are engineering some guerilla tactics with getting Evans on campus on the opposing team's dime. It has happened before with Adrian Peterson and sources are confident that lightning is going to strike a second time with Evans. While our source is out of town visiting family in Key Largo, I will be working overtime to keep you updated on the situation."

  4. Haven't cared about the NFL since they left. They made me realize that you have to love a team as a kid to care about it as an adult. They always choked but you always forgave them. Earl Campbell. Bud would have brought VY to Houston. As an Oiler. Goddamn you, Bud. Just goddamn you.

  7. It's almost if you got suckered into believing Trump is for "bringing the troops home!" When in actuality that is an absolute lie. Trump is using the troops to defend his own personal interest. Have 100 Special forces officers stand aside, while the kurds get slaughtered by the Turks (who Trump does business with and are burying the Khashoggi stuff and Trumps bank dealings). Then on the otherhand deploying 1000s of troops to defend his interests in Saudi Arabia. Its clear as day, but you refuse to admit it. Sad!

  9. Too many to tell. When I was a producer at KTRK-13 I would go to the Oiler practice facility a couple of times a week during the season. Some memories include Jeff Alm pretending he was going to drive his Cadillac into the group of reporters/photogs interviewing Jack Pardee in the parking lot. Did a big fish-tail and sped off. He died right after that (I saw the autopsy report, so don't bother). I remember Ian Howfield crying after he got cut for missing a chip-shot in Washington. Saw Buddy Ryan and Kevin Gilbride's first altercation. Ray Childress got me kicked out of the facility one time for telling PR guy Chip Namias that I had told Ray to tell Chip to "get Jack's ass out here because was tired of waiting for him." Actually collected on a bet with Cody Carlson I had made several years before when he was at Baylor. We were at the same black-tie sorority event in Waco when he was quarterback there and I was a pup at Texas. He was trash talking at dinner and I had finally had enough. We bet on the Texas-BU game that year, and he actually remembered it when I brought it up later and paid up. I produced Ray Childress' show, and we also had Ernest Givins in studio every Sunday night after home games. They were both good dudes to work with, though Ray's wife (a UT Tri-Delt) was more pleasant to be around. Also did some of the "Off the Field" material and would go along to the players' homes to shoot interviews and b-roll. Bruce Matthews, Mike Munchak, Chris Dishman. When we would go over to the APC and would see Bud Adams' he would always say the same thing to Bob Allen every, single, time. "Hey, Allen. What marriage are you on now?" Then he would cackle as if it was the first time he ever said it. Adams had to have been the inspiration for the Judge in "The Natural." His office was in the basement of the APC, with no natural sunlight and the lights were always dim. I will also take partial credit in getting Jerry Glanville fired. The day after they lost to the Steelers in the playoffs I was sitting in the office while Bob was doing the six-o'clock and a guy calls from Intercontinental Airport to tell me that Glanville is sitting out there waiting on a flight to Atlanta. Within an hour I had a crew from our Atlanta affiliate on the way to the airport there, but only after Bob got on the phone and screamed at their anchor. That guy would not believe that the Falcons would interview, much less hire Glanville. He refused, but eventually caved. Glanville's face getting off the plane was priceless. He was caught and he knew it. We got the video via satellite about 10-minutes to 10 p.m., and Glanville had made the comment to the effect of he was happy to be there "because if you're not sleeping in Atlanta, you're just camping out." Bob was livid. He called Bud and played it for him over the phone and then went onset and just winged a 2-minute rant on what a piece of shit Glanville was and how he had dissed Houston, the Oilers, errybody. They fired Glanville the next day (or, had a mutual parting of the ways). Last story. After the Chiefs/Montana playoff loss I got fired for a couple of days. The station was being remodeled and the sports department was outside in a trailer. I had told the security guard to make sure the west side door by the heli-pad was unlocked so I could tapes to playback in time. About 5-minutes before Tim Melton (my favorite guy) went on at 10 p.m. I ran out of the trailer with ALL my tapes. Highlights Post-game. Everything. And, the door was locked. No one was coming. No one was answering the phone. So, I sat down on my ass and kicked in the bottom glass panel in and crawled through. Otherwise, our whole Sunday sportscast would have been Tim tap-dancing for five-minutes. The next day they brought me into the station manager's office, showed me the security tape, and fired me. On Wednesday Bob Allen (RIP) called me and told me to "get back here." I don't know what or how, but he and Tim went to bat for me. Two of the best human beings you could ever hope to meet.

  14. Needs to be quoted/repeated. This week - bank card died. Ordered new one. When they shipped it they killed the one that my Uber account is tied to. Go out yesterday morning to get my ride and nope, payment method declined. No time to fix so had to call boss to come to the house to pick me up. Card still not arrived so had to arrange for ride this morning. Co-worker is coming, pouring down rain and so I get my Redwing boots out of the closet that I haven't worn since last winter. Don't know what happened but the soles turned to bubble gum at some point in the last 12 months. Boots literally fall apart as I'm walking into work, they're still sitting outside the entrance to the building. Melted soles and all. Shitty week, great life though.

  15. You know what. Let's do this. Enacting Trump's privatization of Medicare and letting a bunch of old stupid trumpkins sign their own death warrants may be the only way forward at this point. After the cleansing, maybe we can get a population that will vote in representative that want to deal with the real world.

  16. When this is all done, the Democrats need to get down to the business of court packing. And I'm not even talking about SCOTUS (though that can't be forgotten). I'm talking about the lower courts. The Western District of Texas could use at least three new district judges (one each in San Antonio, Austin, and El Paso). And the Fifth Circuit could use at least three new circuit judges. There's no need to wait for vacancies. Just create new positions on the bench.

  19. Dotard: A lot of people don't know that Albert Nobel invented dynamite. Dynamite is horrible, it's awful stuff, explodes, makes a mess and kills people. Why would I want an award named after such a BAD person. I called Alford myself (I'm the greatest president in the world, so everyone wants to talk to me!f) I told him, "Al, you're FAKE PRIZES, so don't even try to give me one". He cried and BEGGED me to take it but NO MAGA!!!!!!!

  21. I do. And they don’t change the substance or effect of “I want you to do us a favor, though.” What comes after is Trumpian verbal diarrhea. Nothing less. The “though” is the “pro” that makes it a quid pro quo. Your guy’s a criminal. He’s going to be impeached. He may well be convicted. But he’s certain not to be president on January 21, 2021.

  22. Well, it's the descent into shamelessness and indignity that really does it. Look, every nation is willing to use its military might for favorable outcomes. It's like being a married woman. She's not a prostitute. But she is smart and sophisticated enough to know that selective and appropriate use of her powers of affection will get her the vacation/car/blessing to go on a girl's weekend/etc. that she wants. It's not purely transactional, it's how human relationships work. But now, we're just walking out into the wide world and saying "I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars" We went from being a sophisticated woman of grace and power to a poolside whore. Just grand.

  26. You're both correct. Crucet's response was extremely presumptuous but burning the book was dumb. Crucet has probably benefited from white privilege in her life because, like me, even though she's Latin she looks fairly white. This is a white-looking woman who went to an Ivy League school lecturing Georgia Southern students on privilege. If you didn't know who she was ahead of time and you were told that woman's name was Emily Johnson you would believe it.

  27. Can we post stupid MIL shit? Back in August, at the beach with wife, kid, wife's sister and her family, and MIL and FIL. Rented a beach house. Manager guy at the rental office gives us three keys. Sign says lost keys = $400 for re-keying house. Later that day, I come back from the beach, and put my key on the little table right by the front door. Later, we are about to leave for dinner my key is gone. Did anybody take my key? No, no. Are you sure you put it there? Yes. Well, we'll find it later, lets go to dinner. OK, but nobody can find any of the three keys. FIL says to MIL, "I gave you mine earlier to hold while we were at the beach." She replies, "oh yes, I forgot, its in my purse". Where are the other two keys? We end up tearing the house apart looking for the goddamned two missing keys. I spend probably an hour walking back and forth to the beach, and sifting through the sand where we were earlier that day. I get back and still no keys. Kids are being accused of playing with the keys and losing them, cars are being searched, suitcases upended, sheets taken off mattresses, cushions taken off couches. I'm about ready to take the smell trap off the sink and BIL is talking about looking through the dumpster down the street. Maybe wife or SIL left one at the grocery store that morning? I see a purse on the kitchen counter. I look inside and all three keys are in the purse. MIL is like "Oh, I guess I saw the key on the table and thought it was the one that Bill gave me. They all look the same." No idea why the third key was in there, other than they all look the same.

  30. Someone said it on here, which I think is the best way to think about it. If there was no whistleblower. . . If Trump would have gotten away with this, the scenario would be. Foreign government and ally announces official investigation (apparently on its own initiative) into a primary challenger for presidency, alleging suspicion of fraud and corruption. It's that simple. He was trying to get a foreign government to act in a way that smears an opponent, and hide his involvement because he knows it isn't credible if it has his name attached to it. Secretly solicit a foreign government to interfere with out election. Decide for yourself if it is a high crime and misdemeanor or just a totally cool and totally legal level of trying to defraud voters. And all that is without mentioning the QPQ, which, if proved, doesn't give any leeway to determine impeachable.

  31. Secret investigation is my most favorite. Ken Starr would like a word. And I don’t give a fuck if the whistleblower had “Fuck Trump” bumper sticker - everything he reported was verified by the WH’s own memo on the call and by testimony and text messages passed along by Volker and the attorney for the WB has confirmed he is now representing more WBs with knowledge of said call. But please do go on the record - are you okay with the president soliciting foreign countries for assistance in political efforts and investigation of American citizens? In that effort, are you okay with the president using the withholding of American aid to pressure foreign governments into assisting in political efforts that have nothing to do with official American foreign policy? Are you okay with the president hiding records of phone calls with foreign leaders on a system designed to protect national security information when those calls had nothing to do with national security? Are you okay with the AG of the United States acting as the president’s personal lawyer? Are you okay with the AG using the power of the DOJ and taxpayer dollars to travel around the world to solicit help from foreign countries to discredit a lawfully appointed special prosecutor? Are you with the president’s actual personal lawyer acting as an agent of the American government? Are you okay with the president’s personal lawyer being paid by shady foreign nationals to influence the president? Please answer those questions. And I know this will be a challenge for someone who lets their partisanship and Fox News override logic, but try and do it without spewing conspiracies that have been proven false or reverting to specious whatabouts. Look at these questions in a vacuum. Pretend the president in question is just a hypothetical person. Pretend they’re a Democrat. Pretend you’re actually a patriot.
