  1. I too live in Ok and have for over 35 years. I respectfully disagree with this. It would take too long to hash it all out and I don't want to clog up this thread with bedlam bullshit. However, I have a friend, he's like a brother to me. OU fan and grad, not some trailer-dwelling bum. He says that same bullshit "I always root for OSU when they're not playing ou". But one time I mentioned that I bought an autographed Josh Fields mini helmet on ebay and his attitude changed quick. "Why would you buy that? He wasn't any good!". I said for OSU football standards, he's pretty good. He got pretty surly and just kept shitting on it. I said you're only mad because he beat ou twice, he acted like I pissed in his face. So no, I don't buy the "OSU-loving sooner fan" horseshit.
  2. Bro, that was our winning % versus just about anyone for the better part of 40 years.
  3. Went grocery shopping with the wife, she had asked me to remind her to get stuff to make pigs in a blanket. As we entered the aisle, I said don't forget to get the croissant stuff. I meant to say "crescent rolls", I'm no foodie snob or a frenchman and don't know why I said croissant but I did. She laughed and said "You mean crescent rolls? LOL". I said well, croissant is french for crescent so it's the same thing. She said "That's not true. Croissants are round."
  4. This is something Mike Gundy always talks about when people bitched about playing on thursday or friday. Getting a primetime game on a day when there's nobody else playing gives the potential to have a lot of people watching. Texas and ou don't need the help but programs like OSU can really use it. I still hate friday games but I don't disagree with his point.
  5. What kind of Sophie's Choice topic is this? You can't make me choose and I will not do so.
  6. Did Clint cry in Paint Your Wagon? I rest my case.
  7. Clint Eastwood: Best: Outlaw Josey Wales or Unforgiven? Really there's too many to choose from, he's been around so fucking long. Worst: The Bridges of Madison County
  8. No, our problem is sharing a state with what is at worst a top 5 program in the history of the fucking sport.
  9. Supposed to be 106 in OKC today. Fucking hell.
  10. I just got a new VW GTI a couple of months ago and the cup holder situation is horrible. It has 2 spots but neither is actually round. The front one has a round arm that pops out to surround a drink but it's not at all secure. The rear one is square, which is dumb. Are the German's using square cans or something? Only drinking juice boxes?
  11. I heard that from a coworker and I just don't believe it. Why would the SEC go after OKST now if they didn't want them when ou and Texas left? What's the incentive? DOn't get me wrong, as a fan I hope they get an invite but I'm calling BS.
  12. Max looks like he's still coming down from a three day bender.
  13. Marine Corps boot camp, 70-80 guys and about 8 urinals. Anytime the entire platoon had to go somewhere and we were behind schedule, you would hear the ominous announcement: "Hit the head before we go! Double up and triple up on those pissers!". One minute you're taking a regular ol' piss, the next minute, 2-3 dicks are coming at you from all sides like a horrible gangbang.
  14. Beating Texas in football hasn't been an upset for several years.

    Getting old sucks

    My dad had the widow maker in 2016. He was at the grocery store but he managed to drive home, get the "cold stuff" put away and then had my nephew take him to the hospital. Why he didn't get an abulance at the store is beyond me. One triple bypass later, he's still hanging around. No clue how he made it. The doc told us at the time that it wasn't looking good.
  16. My kids' school made you put money on their account (unless you got free lunch) and everyone would just give their account number when they got lunch. That way no one would know who got the free lunch.
  17. In downtown OKC, its 100 and my office building's A/c just went out. Fuck this shit.
  18. One of my twin daughters (no pics) moved out last year and tomorrow the other one is leaving. Neither will be far away but still, an empty nest. I got used to them being gone during the summers at their mom's house over the last 10-12 years, so I'm not too torn up about this. I will miss them but I'll enjoy the quiet time with the Mrs. as well.
  19. IIRC its because of the CBA, they can't announce trades until they've been finalized.
  20. I had a small stack of mail that was wrapped in a rubber band. When I got to about 5 feet or so from the outbound mail tray, I gave it a nonchalant flick of the wrist and it flipped and twisted in the air and landed perfectly in the tray as if I had gently placed it there, right side up and facing the right way. Of course, nobody was around to witness it.
  21. I used to do shit like this when I was a kid, only they didn't call it "Parkour", we called it the hot lava game. My dad called it "jumping around like an idiot" and told me to knock it off.
  22. Sounds like the whole "Witness" thing was their downfall. Gonna have to rebrand and start over if they want to stay out of prison.
  23. Browsing through facebook marketplace and the number of stupid fucks that can't figure out how to use the words "sell" and "sale" in the right context. "For Sell" "It's time to sale this, don't need it no more" I hate them.

    My friend's wife was at her boot camp workout place today and one of the guys in her class had a massive heart attack and died, right on the spot. There was a nurse in the class and they immediately went to work on him but he was a goner. He was in his early 50s. My friends and I are all late 40s and we're freaking out a bit. Fuck!
