  1. CSB - I’ve met Drew Brees’ HS Baseball Coach at multiple events over the years, as his son works with me. He’s stated that he’s never coached a player as good as Drew was back in the day. Kid really could’ve gone the MLB route if he desired. Brees hit the deepest HR one day he’d ever seen leave their ballpark. Hook’em!!!
  2. MFng Cowboys! Lifelong fan and son who will be 26 at the end of August has never seen them at least play in an NFC Championship game. As a child he rooted for the Cajun Delhomme, as he grew up in Louisiana. Dad got Jake to autograph a poster at a Houston coaching school for him. To really get under my Cowboys skin, he also grew up liking the Giants because of Eli and Strahan. Loved Drew, I did too, with the Saints (great guy and Texas Man) I hated going into his room as it was full of stuff except no Cowboys. Hook’em!!!
  3. It’s a shame that Ash was concussed so bad early in his last season, that at first he couldn’t even walk out into the sunshine of the day. Next man up I guess? Hook’em!!!
  4. David McWilliams #50 to the right of DKR waiting on coin toss results. Might be Rice’s stadium or Cotton Bowl? Hook’em!!!
  5. It’s unique that they had “Texas” on their jerseys for media pictures for the school and to send back home. Even going back to my Dad’s days in the early 60s, but you NEVER saw that on game day, home or away, until the late 70- early 80s. Even pictures of Earl’s #20 doesn’t have Texas on it. Maybe Coach Akers started it. I know he put stripes down the pant leg to match the stripes on the jersey sleeve. Freddy chained smoked with the best of them, as I remember walking with he and Dad from the parking lot to his office, all under and on the West side back then. Hook’em!!!
  6. The Red Wings video of that small boy was awesome! It’s amazing the Detroit fans acted that way. I watched more playoff hockey this year than ever before. As a Texan growing up, we just weren’t exposed to the sport. I remember a new guy moving into my room, stationed in W Germany and had a Fliers hockey jersey on. His first question was Penguins or Fliers? I’m like dude, I’m from Texas and they might scroll the score of Stanley Cup games on the bottom, but you’d really have to search on the cable channels to find a hockey game. Anyways cool dude from Lancaster, PA. Bunch of Amish families in that area, so I had many questions answered by him. Took the family to Hershey, PA in the route during a road trip. Chocolate factory was awesome! Hook’em!!!
  7. My house in Boerne flooded like Memorial Day 8 years ago. Flood zone X and no moving water, pond, or lake near my house. Just found out that the green belt/cattle pasture was higher than my property. As a VA backed mortgage, they would’ve mandated flood insurance, but we were in flood zone X and higher than SA by at least 20’. Water never got above baseboard height, but the whole house got flooded and we were still within the first year of paying for the hardwood floor replacement. 28k later, sold the house about six months afterwards. No flood insurance! Hook’em!!
  8. Went to take my Dad and son to the Bills game last year. Had a great time and the Texans won!
  9. MFng cult! All they think about is us! How about just changing your underwear and making your bed (Admiral McRaven). Hook’em!!!
  10. Looking forward to 54, as that was my # in Jr High and HS, thanks to Randy White growing up - Cowboys fan! Always checked the roster each year to see who was wearing 54. Hook’em!!!
  11. Kind of like cranking the oven up to 450, when you only need 375. I guess it heats up “faster?” Hook’em!!!
  12. I bought the MFer just because Arch is on the cover and there’s an article on him. Plus the fact that their consensus is that we’ll win it all! Lots of prognostication going on there, to include Arch winning the Heisman. Hook’em!!!
  13. Raining all day in SA and didn’t want to make the further drive for IMAX, but I might go again next week. Really enjoyed the regular version though. Well worth the $$$ spent. Hook’em!!!
  14. Done / 80. Hook’em!!!
  15. Today is “Darwinism” at its finest! Hook’em!!!
  16. Today is the day for the inebriated to say “hold my beer and watch this!” Consequences be damned, which at the time they don’t think about. Hook’em!!!
  17. Both are top 10 movies - IMO. Hook’em!!!
  18. Son is an ER Nurse and contest. All hands (no pun intended) on deck. He’ll get 1-1/2OT this whole weekend, as SA residents are stupid! He’s seen some so bad that the MD just says we might as well amputate. Hook’em!!!
  19. Does BBs make any without the 70s rope? Been a long time since I’ve worn a hat with a cord, let alone a colored one to stand out. I am up to buying new Longhorn products, living in SA, and they closed our UT store a couple years ago, so most of my stuff comes from the Co-op or on gameday. Hook’em!!! Hook’em!!!
  20. MFng pussies in the SEC not wanting that 9th conference game. Oh hey, 50% of the conference will lose that week, as well as have to go on the road on odd/even years. Just MFng win the game! But, but bowl eligibility? MFer, if your team is 7-5, welcome to the shitty bowls. Hook’em!!!
  21. It’s MFng (FCS) Samford, NOT Stanford, so a pretty big difference in scheduling. Hook’em!!!
  22. I loved DAT with the Cowboys. One of the few aggy players I’ve ever rooted/cheered for. Hook’em!!!
  23. And a Cowboy at that. Loved Dat, even though he was aggy. My McNeese team had his aggy team down 16-0 in the first half the year aggy opened the new Endzone section of pile field and one of RC’s last seasons coaching. I just remember taking pictures of the scoreboard every time McNeese scored! It of course was hot/humid as Hell, August in aggyland and the visitor seats were in the sun the whole game. Right before HT aggy attempts a 50+ yard FG to put points on the board, which he missed. But they said McNeese was offside, so move 5 and make a FG to end the half. HT gave RC a “special” award, can’t remember, but he’s a McNeese Alum. And his former school is currently kicking their ass! 2nd half KO I think was returned for a TD. McNeese had the ball with under 3:00 left to play with a chance to win the game, but a pass to the wide side was INTed and ran back for a TD, to make the score look worse than the game was! Long drive back to Lake Chuck with a bunch of woulda coulda shoudas in my car. Hook’em!!!
