    We will never be America’s team. If all those things you mentioned come to fruition (which I believe they will), we will be despised by the entire country. But I’m here for it. Embrace the hate baby! 

    Well, I'm okay with the hate as well. Either way, but then again, a lot of people hate the Cowboys, so how did they become America's team?

    They had some unique qualities that we might just see in UT as it rises from obscurity - starting with a couple of pretty cool QBs. Throw in a Heisman candidate RB (there'll be one), a great TE, a few beasts on the Defense - a team coming from one of the coolest cities in America, a mascot, colors, logos that just aren't the same old same old - and a team that retains some of the American flyover country aura... then comes the dynasty... and voila - America's Team II. There's probably a better name for it - that too is on the way. Put on your thinking caps.

  2. Called it. Quinn returns, Manning a #2 who will get a ton of snaps next season. 

    Plus Bama weakened. Maybe UT and it's woulda/shoulda now wise to the world coach plow thru SEC with one-two punch at QB, ranked in top five entire season, rolls into Playoffs and wins National Championship. Easy Capezy.

    Can you say the new "America's Team"?

  3. Had been thinking about replacing my aging Harmon Karden Soundstick computer sound system. Realized I had a couple of high end Bose Bookshelf speakers I'd kept in the closet for the last 20 years. Bought a Fosi Audio mini amp for 75 bucks. Size of a pair of glasses. New system totally kicks ass.

  4. I liked Lorraine's pep talk, but felt like too little too late. Wanted to see  more of her character. Figure there'll be some kind of epilogue with Dot as Lorraine's Second in Command, kicking ass in a board room as Lorraine proudly looks on. Too good a character to get a half dozen lines in the climax.

    Also thought the "underground scene" could have been more.  Save it for the grand finale. Roy falls in the hole, a nasty battle ensues. Her heading off with a rifle feels like a hiding in the closet loop.

    No doubt... just updating score

    Giants just kicked FG.   3:39 left in 4th

    27-10   G-Men gonna win  

    Eagles are in. I'm guessing they're sitting out some starters

  6. In retrospect, the near perfect Aubrey getting blocked is kinda funny. Of all fucking time to do it... We were sweating it for at least a quarter. Now he hits the upright. Hope he's not superstitious.

    [Longhorn fans] Is that allowed? [/Longhorn fans]

    It was actually encouraged back in the Dark Ages
