    No shit Texas is like the 2nd or 3rd most populous state in the country.  There are a lot more white oriole, black people, Asian folk, queer folk, old dudes, kids, dogs, and on and on than in Tennessee.

    I don’t give a fuck about any team but Texas. Hate some, really hate a few. Don’t care about the rest. 

    Hey, if it weren't for Tennesseans, y'all would be speaking Spanish and illegally crossing the border into the US at the Red River.

    I’ve never had conference allegiance and never will.

    When you live in Texas, you’re exposed to fan bases that are close to you because it’s such a large state with large population. It’s completely different than all of those tiny moonshine guzzling butt fuck cities in Tennessee. 
     

    It doesn’t make sense to compare Nashville to anywhere in Texas.

    I am excited about competing against others with lower educational standards. I do believe Texas has a lot of T-shirt fans. The SEC has a ton of T-shirt fans with more passion that can’t spell ‘college.’

    Having lived in Austin and Nashville, I can tell you they are very similar.  

    And there are FAR more rednecks in Texas than in Tennessee.

  3. ...will you start following, hating, making fun of, SEC teams more than BIG12 teams?  For instance, will you be more interested in the success or failure of Auburn, Arky, Miss St, and Vandy  than Baylor, TCU, Tech and UH?

    Or will proximity bias still tie you to regional teams rather than conference teams?

    I live in Nashville so the Texas teams don't mean shit to me other than how they affect the success of TEXAS athletics and now they don't so I don't give a shit at all.

    Thoughts?

    My surgeon said, “Ubet, I know I told you that Laparoscopic surgery doesn’t leave scars - but when you’re feeling less woozy you’ll see there’s a large horizontal scar on your right abdomen.”

    ” That cancer tumor was so large I’m amazed you were even able to take a crap. I almost slapped it on the bottom and gave it a name.” 

     

    Those colorectal surgeons (aka, proctologists) do have a sense of humor.  When mine visited me the day after the surgery, he asked me if I wanted to see the cancer.  I said I didn't think so.  He said "yes you do" and pulled out his iphone and showed me a picture of the tumor.  I got a big ole scar too even though he did it laparoscopically.  Can't safely pull that shit through those little holes.

  5. Not to scare you or anything, but I had my first coloscopy at 50 and when I woke up from the procedure, the GI doc showed me a picture and said "I don't know what this is, but it's got to come out".  Based on the picture, I knew it was cancer.  Got it cut out two weeks later and was staged as stage 1.  I was very lucky that I got the coloscopy when I did as the tumor has not penetrated the muscle wall yet.  I get a colonoscopy every 3 years now.  I ask the GI doc for a discount since I'm now missing my ascending colon.  She says "no".

    Well, that's where they belong.

    I have it on good authority you get the same treatment for stage 3 colon as well.

    And the docs take one look at colon cancer in a scope before surgery and go, "yup, that's probably cancer."  So probably not colorectal.

    Yeah, I kinda thought of that after I posted.  You're probably right.

    He’s going to make his lawyer fake a seizure and request a stay for convalescence?

    I'd make Alina Habba have a seizure.

    Yeah....one of the advantages of being the crown prince.  Harry could indulge in the dirty.  Remember his time with Chelsy Davy, of Zimbabwe?

    Prince-Harry-and-Chelsy-Davy-s-Relations

    Harry remembers.  He had that grin on his face their entire relationship.  And I doubt that it was solely because Chelsy was fun to play Scrabble with.

    She sure is a light colored black woman.  I hear he likes that.
