  1. Then your memory is starting to fade because this board’s very own Voodoochild had a pic of him and his cohort that was used for meme material by our rivals back in the 00s.
  2. Typical pre-OU heartburn game. Everybody remain calm.
  3. This has all the hallmarks of a pre-OU heartburn game where we have to wring our hands for three quarters and people on the board will furiously type the same lines about the team we’ve seen for the last 10 seasons and lack of focusness and looking past this team because of OU and Texas wins by 10-13 and the hardcore pessimists on this board will spend all of Hate Week convinced Texas will get the shit beat out of them by OU and littering the board with their Debbie Downer tripe… But what do I know?
  4. They’re back to just being happy to be there. Nature is healing.
  5. I swear to fucking Christ, the MLB has the stupidest fucking media strategy in the modern era. I’m closer to Houston than I am to Dallas, but their blackout rules keep me from seeing any and all Astros games, even when they are on national television. Why do I even try to maintain my childhood fandom of a team that the league won’t even let me watch from the comfort of my home 180 miles away while they force feed me a team I never watch 240 miles away. Oh, and they let WGN broadcast the Cubs all the fucking time nation wide because that makes all the sense in the world.
  6. Deion would have been a fool to not embrace the media hype. It’s free exposure for recruiting.
  7. Media got a bunch of views and clicks building Colorado up and is going to get a bunch of views and clicks tearing them back down.
  8. This is going to end up looking like a middle aged, balding version of the Schmitts Gay SNL skit, isn’t it?
  9. Look, I'm not a doctor. I'm actually the other profession on this site (lawyer) that typically fights each other like the bicycle jousting scene in Quick Change. But are we really going to say that a lacerated liver is evidence of the hit being extra malicious? I think the hit is dirty, but nothing more than your run of the mill hard hit that players will eat the flag on just to get into the other team's head. Organ damage is sometimes a freak byproduct of a hit (Chris Simms, Steve Edmonds, Damar Hamlin) and I don't think that severe injury was the intended result. He came in hard and popped Hunter in an almost bang/bang play. He could have pulled up, but wanted to get a hard hit in during a game with a lot of chirping. That's football, per Deion himself. This isn't in the same ballpark, to my eye, as other obvious dirty cheap shots like Kellen Heard on Colt McCoy nor does the CSU player seem to have a history of dirty shots preceding this one like the Burfict hit on Antonio Brown.
  10. Stat shown on the TV last night was that Texas ranked 8th in the FBS in dropped passes. That's more than just ball placement being completely different. That's indicative of a problem. Jugs machine needs to be getting some work.
  11. I always felt like the Patriot League teams should play each other and then teams located where the major military bases for each school are located. San Antonio is Military City USA and having both Air Force and Army being a frequent visitor would be a good tradition and could also be events used for the benefit of the service members stationed there.
  12. They already did the worst thing that they could do to those fans. They did what Zoomers do and Fortnite danced on their corpses.
  13. I would love a montage at every home game, refreshed yearly and added to as the season goes on, of "how it started, how it ended" of Horns down followed by big plays/final scores. Please queue that up starting at Wyoming. Please and thank you.
  14. Looks like he competed against Ewers, anyway. Just not the way he thought.
  15. Our WR hit the jugs machine hard after practice for the rest of the season and my goodness…
  16. Don't like turtling up here. Need to keep pressure.
  17. Drops are what is killing us. Ewers is hitting guys in the hands in tight spacing. WRs need to step up.
  18. He's hitting the receivers in the hands where the defense can't get it. They have to catch it.
