Ozzy was asked to summarize his bio several years ago. He said "Ozzy Osbourne, born 1948. Died whenever. Bit the head off a bat."
I mean he left out some key achievements -- petty ones like creating the entire genre of heavy metal -- but it's still pretty great.
Preach, brother. Speeding is never an issue in my '71 Super Beetle. And if the Beetle was good enough for Ted Bundy to pick up chicks, it's good enough for me.
Disagree. I mean, I am really looking forward to kicking the shit out of them this fall as well. But I have enjoyed reading their whining and crying over the past few weeks, and I look forward to even more of it this fall...when we kick the shit out of them.
That is just the dumbest question ever, even for an aggy.
"I owe my cousin $500, but he just made a couple hundred at the tables last weekend, so I really shouldn't have to pay back the whole amount"
Might as well have been "Guys, I'm grasping at straws to figure out how we will possibly stay relevant. Therefore, we don't need to pay attention at all to player rankings."
I got my tickets to that Coors Field show. 4 for the family in row 21, and one 6th row extra for me for the soundcheck pre-show. Seen him several times but this is likely to be the last, so I went for it. Gonna be great!!
One of my favorite parts of this recruiting cycle is when we lose out on someone, we say "Texas has fidelity. They have a monetary cap on recruits, and they aren't going to go over and get in a bidding war...that's for someone like Tech or Baylor to do." Then when there's a chance to get a really solid player, the tune changes to "Holy shit empty the bank and go get that guy!"
To be clear, I'm 100% on board with your strategy. Cooper would be a great get. I also know shit about fuck.
I contribute through the legitimate channels but that's not my point. I'm saying that many posters here continue to find creative ways to feel optimistic about a pretty shitty situation. Believe me, I hope like hell that we get some of these guys over the course of the fall. But to this point, recently losing out on top guys has sucked and it seems like it has caught our recruiting staff off guard. I don't think anyone here can say with a straight face that they feel really satisfied with the way things have gone over the past 2 weeks. That's all I'm saying.
Again, here's hoping that the staff is able to turn things around this fall. And fingers crossed for Turntine today.
