  1. I just want to see Prime lead out “Ralphie” on the first home game! Hook’em!!!
  2. I will buy a Bears jersey once I know his official number. My Dad and I watched him play in the TXHS playoffs, while at PNG, my Dad and I were excited that he was going to UT! Hook’em!!!
  3. The only Longhorn we didn’t get a picture with that was drafted this weekend, prior to Alamo Bowl, was Ojomo, because he was playing. Hook’em!!!
  4. My son got a selfie with Bijan prior to the Alamo Bowl. Hook’em!!!
  5. If you want to put T Noblis in perspective, he started as a Sophomore, because back then Freshman couldn’t play. Back then everyone for the most part played both ways, Offense and Defense. T Noblis’ first showing on the UT gridiron was a Guard, blocking for the UT offense. My Dad was one of the players that T Noblis replaced on the “depth chart”. It relegated to him being more of a special teams player and didn’t “letter” until his Senior year in 1963, when they won UT’s first National Championship. Dad always said that the following year/ team was better than his, but Arkansas happened. They did go on to beat #1 Bama, with Joe Namath, in the Orange Bowl! T Noblis was a key on that goal line stand Hook’em!!!
  6. Nobis’ problem being the #1 draft pick was going to an expansion team - Falcons. His surrounding cast of teammates were basically no-names. Players back then didn’t switch teams after a couple seasons like they do now. He was a Falcon and retired with same. Roughly 50% of his years he went to the Pro Bowl. Back then, it was an honor and players actually played in the game. It’s a shame he isn’t in the HOF as the Falcon’s first, because IMO lesser players are in Canton because of team association. Old man/fan rant out! Hook’em!!!
  7. Tommy Nobis was the first “Mr. Falcon” and now Bijan is set to be this generation’s Mr. Falcon. Hook’em!!!
  8. Dad is still wearing his “T” ring in the picture (he’s 80) with JW. My brother asked him years ago who’ll get it upon his passing, which he frankly stated that he’ll be buried with it, so he can show it to DKR! Hook’em!!!
  9. JW was so approachable with us. My Dad mentioned watching him in HS and was excited about his future back then. We’re all so appreciative of his leadership for the Horns, in him coming back for one more season. All the best for JW - we’re all rooting for him! Hook’em!!!
  10. My Dad with J. Whit at the Alamo Bowl Luncheon. Go get’um J Whit on your last season! Hook’em!!!
  11. I bought a “dial” combination lock in 1988 prior to going to Army Basic Training. Used it throughout my service on lockers, duffel bags, and etc. Outside of my service ending in ‘95, I’ve used it outside on gates, storage sheds, and etc. Every once in a while I’d put a spray of WD-40 in it and it still works today - same combination since I purchased and opened the package too. Hook’em!!!
  12. Dang Prime!!! Can’t predict the weather! I’m actually interested in seeing the Buffs results this coming season. Hook’em!!!
  13. Really? They do put on a good show though. Hook’em!!!
  14. That’s exciting for those corn row MFers?
  15. I did that while waiting on a taxi, Germany 1990 and a bottle of vodka, said I could drink it all at once - for $50. Once the money hit my pocket, the bottle went to my lips. The rest was a mystery to me! Pics of me going to places like “Weekend at Bernie’s” totally comatose. The finale was with pictures of my “friends” laying on me while the MPs picked us up and took us to our barracks. Slept on the “drunk cot” next to the NCO desk in charge. Woke up in the morning with no hangover and like nothing ever happened, until I saw the pictures like two days later! Not proud of it, but “Hook’em”!!!
  16. My BIL purchased his lake house on LBJ ~ 3 years ago, while he was at SMU. Last year he was offered an amount that ~ doubled his purchase, so Hook’em!!! He is a UT grad and I’ll always say it takes “money” to make money!!! Hook’em!!!
  17. So was the TCU Head Coach! Hook’em!!!
  18. Please “baby 8lb Jesus” don’t go to the Eagles at the 10th pick! I will not wear a “tailored” Eagles Bijon Robinson jersey! Hook’em!!!! I’ll be a fan of him, but damn if he ends up in the NFC East! Hook’em!!! And Go Cowboys!!!
  19. Generational Morons they are! aggy will always be aggy. Neighbors and/or coworkers, aggy will always associate and be within the hive of aggy! That’s what they know and associate with - aggy. See them up close and from a far, but they’ll always be aggy. Hook’em!!!
  20. Even though Sam Bennett (amateur) is aggy, kid has got sand! Under par in his first round of the Masters, good on you kid!!! Hook’em!!!
  21. My Basset Hound, Bucky (short for Buccaroo) came from Bandera, and his crooked little front legs would fit nicely in Jimbo’s boots! Hook’em !!!!
