  1. As of today. If you think Clemson and FSU are long for the ACC, I have some ocean front property in Howard County, Iowa to sell you. I get it, you’re an SMU guy and this is a great move for them. The idea that adding SMU to the ACC is some kind of genius stroke is silly. I think the ACC can survive a few losses if the second tier schools don’t get nervous. But it’s gonna be the 4th place conference. Which is a viable existence and a huge upgrade for the Ponies, but this was not a missed opportunity by the Big 12 in any sense.
  2. Those schools are gonna be in the ACC for 5 years, maybe. Once they joined the SEC they’d have the same opportunity. Even if they stay in the ACC they go to Dallas maybe twice a decade. You really don’t believe this changes anything, you’re just trying to shit on the Big 12. If the Big 12 had added SMU you’d be ripping the league for adding a school that has no fanbase, hasn’t been relevant since the Reagan administration, and adds nothing in terms of new markets. The act is very transparent
  3. The ACC has its 3 top programs screaming that they’re out the door. They’ve set up 15 different revenue side deals. Half of the league can’t get 40K people to a game. Nothing about this league is stable. The Big 12 is nowhere near the SEC or Big 10, but they’re in markedly better shape than the ACC. SMU would take the Big 12 over the ACC every day.
  4. If you’re going to be married my wife as well, please take part of my mortgage payment too
  5. The MWC with those two is a pretty geographically sound league of schools with similar facilities and fanbases.
  6. My wife is an absolute menace with a shopping cart in a large box store. Pushing it down the left side of the aisle, stopping abruptly, barreling into cross traffic aisles with impunity. I took a day off to spend with her however she wanted, and a solid half hour was spent shamefully apologizing to strangers in Sam’s Club

  8. It was a combo of our state government and not having a medical school. Administration couldn’t do much
  9. If you added the average actual attendance of all 3 of these schools, you wouldn’t fill a 60K stadium
  10. My inner geography nerd is reeling.
  11. I never said Texas owed us anything. OP is just a cunt who extrapolated that sentiment from my statement (made some time ago) that I wished UT and OU were as content to prop up sucklers as Ohio State and Michigan are. Over the last 12 months I’ve been pretty emphatic that this has probably been the best result for the parties involved, but seeping vaginas just can’t stop seeping. Raw nerves are forever on Surly.
  12. I was thinking I’d hire her to wash our planters. In June.
  13. I enjoyed the elders as kids episode a lot, probably because even though it wasn't the kids all playing off each other, it was the same spirit. It always makes me feel old to realize that I'm the same age as the Aunties. That episode where it starts off with them doing a choreographed dance to "Sittin' Up In My Room" is something I swear to Christ I saw girls I went to school with do on the playground, and probably had a 4th grade chub as a result. I didn't like Maximus in the present tense, and I don't like him any more after knowing his backstory. He's the quintessential self saboteur that didn't have to end up as fucking weird and awkward as they are, but some kind of fucked up sense of pride lead them into it. I've had more of those guys enter my life than I'd like.
  14. They keep talking about the recruiting hit when Aggy joined the SEC, but Texas has been reeling in Top 10 classes the whole time, right? Texas football the last 15 years seems like more of a case study in the importance of coaching than anything. It doesn't matter who you are, if you don't have a good coach, it don't make a shit.
  15. No. He uses a lot of titles that are associated with other songs. He has a song called Come As You Are.
  16. You don't have to explain that to anyone where I'm from.
  17. That would be absolutely hilarious, and also a bigger indictment of that league's mismanagement than anything we've yet seen.
  18. The other one is George in the Rascal, right?
