  1. And that’s that. Fuck Baylor.
  2. Did OU O-line get a lot of injuries toward end of season? Because I don’t remember them looking this bad during the season.
  3. Refs forced Baylor to reevaluate him for a concussion after initially running him back out on the field even though he thought he was Batman. After the re-evaluation they sent him to the locker room.
  4. Standard Baylor mindset. Winning is more important than the health and safety of any individual. Fuck Baylor.
  5. When you don’t watch the AFLAC commercial, but just listen to it, it is amazing how much Coach Saban sounds like Billy Bob Thornton.
  6. Dear Longhorns: I don't necessarily care one way or another how the rest of your season goes, except for your games against Tech obviously, but for the love of all that is holy, please humiliate the agroids this Sunday. Please. If they even play the game close, they will be even more insufferable to be around. Thanks in advance.
  7. Is it just me or do the replacement hires seem really late in coming this year? Or am I just not paying attention? Seems a number have been fired/quit, but I haven't heard much about the new hires.
  8. I don't see why anyone would go to an NFL stadium wearing the opposing teams' gear any more in this day and age: https://twitter.com/barstoolsports/status/1202820680045285376?s=20 What am I doing wrong in regards to embedding a tweet into the post?
  9. Fuck Baylor.
  10. We crossed paths. We know many of the same people I suspect I won’t even begin to describe my 1995 Cotton Bowl experience.
  11. Spike viewed the bowl game as a treat for his players, with all the fanfare and gifts and stuff. Free trip to somewhere exotic like Shreveport or Birmingham [/sarcasm]. What Spike failed to consider is how much money Tech fans spent on going to these bowl games just to see his coaching staff not take it that seriously. I loved Spike, and I had the chance as a student to interact with him quite a bit (he wasn't a fan when we rolled out the smoke machines to replace the old high school painted busters). But man I never liked his approach to bowl games. He won two in his entire tenure...the All-American Bowl vs. Duke (coached by Spurrier) and the Copper Bowl vs. Air Force.
  12. The first season he went up against the mighty juggernaut East Carolina Pirates in the much coveted mattress mac galleryfurniture.com bowl in Houston. Tech was a heavy favorite as I recall. We had driven back to Texas from a white Christmas in the New Mexico mountains the night of the game, and I think arrived at my folks place sometime around half-time. East Carolina just whooped Tech up and down the field. I don't think the game was as close as the final score of 40-27, but maybe it was. All I know is my dad and I were disgusted because this was supposed to be an easy win for Tech, and we weren't that enamored with what we saw on the field that first season to begin with. My dad was cussing about "dink and dunk this shit and dink and dunk that shit and lose to fucking east fucking carolina." It was my new bride's and my first Christmas as a lawfully wedded couple. Good times. We followed it up the next year by investing in a bowl trip to San Antonio to watch the mighty Tech offense score a whopping 16 points to Iowa, who scored 19, in yet another game in which Tech was favored to win. Yep, those first two years under Leach weren't too bueno. And sadly, still better than pretty much all but 2 or 3 of the past 10 years.
  13. Goddamit, Goose! Put the fucking flag away and find Jester before he shoots our ass!
  14. An actual, real, and true update: I have not been contacted in regards to any of the current vacancies.
  15. They have to pay for those stadium bonds and Jimbo's salary somehow. Can't make no money on them road trips.
  16. Well said. Pigmeat & some others like him have this notion that Wells inherited ample talent from KK and should have just been able to plug and play and win 7-8 games right out of the gate. Statistically speaking, that's not going to happen most of the time, but especially not when you've inherited decent, but not great, starters with absolutely zero depth to speak of behind them. Tag on a few injuries in key spots, and it's a recipe for a disastrous season.
  17. Back up in North Texas.
  18. Well great. We reset the receiver.
  19. It’s like someone blowed up the satellite. No direct tv currently at my house in North Texas. Not even the DVR. Anyone else experiencing the same?
  20. There's a good chance that the mono has caused some dehydration and seriously depleted his electrolytes, potassium, and other vitamin levels over time. The potassium levels alone could be working against him. I would get some electrolyte replacement drinks going (vitamin water zero, pedialyte, MiO flavor enhancer that specifically has electrolytes, etc.) and also get him taking some Vitamin D, C, B12, & A supplements with meals. Also, get him to eat more foods with higher potassium contents (don't do supplements, because you don't want to do too much potassium...just try and get it through nutrition alone). Here's a list of high potassium, nutritious foods: https://www.webmd.com/diet/foods-rich-in-potassium#1
  21. I don't know those people.
  22. Dammit, I knew that sounded wrong. All arkansas schools look the same to me.
  23. Never can be said enough. +rep.
