  1. Let’s go to a soccer game type of clock.  2 45-minute halves and the clock doesn’t stop for anything.  90 minutes for game time and a 20 minute halftime.  Start to finish is less than 2 hours.  Get in and get out.  The game is shortened and college football is now completely fucked.  Then let’s go back to a 10-game schedule.  Less injuries with less games.

  2. Mrs. OrangeAss was diagnosed in August 2021 with kidney cancer, 7.3 cm and MRI revealed it was fully encapsulated.  Had an amazing doctor who did a partial kidney removal via robotic surgery in October 2021.  Minimal incisions and very glad most of that kidney still remains intact.  There was no metastases anywhere including lymph nodes.  6 months later the MRI revealed no cancer at all. We were very lucky.  And yeah, we were told it grows slowly, but she still wanted that shit out of her ASAP.  It was caught because she had a pain in the side that turned out to be diverticulitis that had become inflamed, but the MRI for that revealed the cancer, which was stage 1.  No radiation or chemo was necessary.  She is considered to be cured.  FUCK CANCER!

  3. If I recall correctly, aggy just recently said they were the premier baseball program in the state and country.  And I believe them since aggy doesn't lie about anything, how is it possible they suck at it after so many years of trying.  And let's not forget attendance.  I know they're tops in that meaningless stat.  I mean, what the fuck?  I need an explanation.

  4. At this point, it's really hard to give a shit about UT basketball, win or lose.  I hate being a fairweather fan, but it's hard to care about any UT sport, except football.  I'll never NOT give a shit about football, although 10 years in the desert had made losses much easier to accept.  Used to get a nervous stomach before every game, not so much anymore.  Losses are no longer unexpected.

    It would blow Leon’s little mind if he were to take an economics class. 

    aggy’s pricing of 35,000 student tickets at the ridiculously low price that ensures tickets will be sold (he is crowing about ticket sales, not turnstile attendance) actually diminishes the aggy educational experience by not maximizing revenue to provide for the students who care enough to attend classes.

    Heaven forbid anyone on the A&M campus prioritizes academics over cultural indoctrination or athletics. 

    But hey, Leon, begging the legislature for additional funds because you don’t maximize existing resources is an aggy turdition.

    The iron grip those rednecks maintain on perpetuating ignorance is utterly astounding.

    This didn't end the way I thought it would.  Where's the "Fuck aggy"?

    For purposes of this, 2005-2019.  But if there was a third option of 1957-1971, I’d take that one.

    I'm right there with you on the 57 to 71 stretch.  Graduated in 71 and I know prior to my 4 years on campus, there were some pretty amazing seasons, including 1958 win over ou with a 2 point conversion, the great 61-63 seasons and 68 thru 70 seasons.  3 national titles. Also, the 69 Texas - Arkansas game.  I could easily relive that stretch.

  7. People say they want to die doing something they love.  I've often thought I'd like to die at a Texas - OU football game.  It might fuck up the day for those around me, but I'm selfish.  Of course, we need to be winning big when this happens, but it would be a day I wouldn't soon forget.   Wait..... I might not remember as much as I'd like.  There's really no good way to go.
