  1. ”Disposible Heroes: The Other Side of Football” (1985) Not a movie but an old HBO America Undercover documentary from the 80s about the risks of playing football. I can’t believe something like this came out way back in the 80s. Interviews with John Madden and OJ, but the main focus of the doc centers on the post football lives of Jim Otto & Roger Stillwell. Watched it on YouTube - can’t link here
  2. American History X - last saw it in 2000. No CR, but watching it 20 years later is pretty wild considering everything going on right now in the country.
  3. Fuck Tech. They doomed themselves to be locked in the dark shed of irrelevance when they fired Mike Leach.
  4. He’ll follow in Jake Spavital’s footsteps and become the new HC of Texas State. They need something new in San Marcos.
  5. I’m about 25 mins behind. The announcers are slobbering all over this ref and how he keeps his physique so fit. WTF…sounded like Lowell Galindo busting a nut over UTSA. I’m waiting for the GameDay feature about how a botched LASIK job turned into a trial of perseverance for this ref and how he wouldn’t let shitty vision get in his way of becoming a Big 12 ref and fucking Texas despite not being able to see shit.
  6. This is the reason Bedlam can’t continue. You guys don’t want to add OU as a non-conference opponent in addition to Alabama/Oregon/Arkansas. Florida State doesn’t have a problem keeping their rivalry with Florida going in addition to playing LSU.
  7. Clearly we need to change things and make our QB have a helmet 3x the size of the one Haynes King wears while making Overshown’s helmet as small as the leather ones they used to wear in the past.
  8. Today, 9/22 is the 15th anniversary of Gundy’s famous rant. The QB he was ranting about, Bobby Reid, thought it was all a bullshit stunt by Gundy based on how he had been treated during his time at OSU. Excerpt the ESPN Article: Or the line of all lines: "Come after me! I'm a man! I'm 40! I'm not a kid. Write something about me, or our coaches. Don't write about a kid that does everything right, that's heart's broken and then say the coaches said he was scared. That ain't true!" After Gundy was done, after he'd stormed out saying, "It makes me want to puke," there was hardy applause. Some fans had slipped into the news conference, and they liked the way Gundy had strutted around, the way he'd defended the kid. Problem was, no one realized he'd offended the kid. Reid says he was caught off guard. Here was a coach who'd been burying him and now he was going to war for him? It didn't add up. "At first, everything [Gundy] was saying sounded real and true," Rajika says. "But I'm a believer where there is smoke, there's fire." In other words, Bobby and Rajika Reid felt info in Carlson's column came indirectly from Gundy or his staff. ("I'd have a hard time agreeing with that," Gundy says.) In other words, they felt Gundy's rant was fake. "Honestly, the way I took it, I felt like it was all a front," Reid says. "That it was all a big show. It didn't feel genuine." https://www.espn.com/college-football/news/story?id=3341578
  9. I suspect the NCAA’s appeal denial was influenced by the “breaking news” out of Van Zandt county of Overshown’s slap on the wrist way back in Dec 2021. This is the same county where the DA, Tonda Curry, is a Tech Law grad. Convenient timing for this to come out the week of the Tech game.
  10. Tell your wife’s friend about the time Baylor held a pep rally with Bill Cosby to boost morale just one month after Patrick Dennehy’s body was found and Coach Bliss was caught on tape instructing his players to say Dennehy was a drug dealer to cover up NCAA violations.
  11. Well clearly when I don’t want to talk about something, I take out my handwritten notes and have everyone verify my thoughts are true as I keep talking about what I don’t want to be talking about.
  12. Baylor is evil. They’ll burn your house down to cover up football players raping your daughters and basketball players murdering your sons. They’ll call your daughters sluts for putting themselves in that situation while slandering your dead sons as drug dealers who brought it upon themselves. Aggy is stupid. They’ll burn your house down simply because it’s burnt orange using a massive pile of wood. They’ll build the pile recklessly in the name of tradition while wearing stupid clothes and chanting stupid yells. They just end up hurting themselves before lighting anything on fire.
  13. How’s it going? I hope you were able to get a good setup so you can just chill and relax before the game
  14. A press release from the U.S. Department of Justice said on or around June 21, a 55-year-old coworker of Ortiz had a medical emergency and died immediately after treating herself for dehydration using an IV bag of saline taken from the surgical center. An autopsy report revealed that she died from a lethal dose of bupivacaine, a nerve blocking agent that is often used during the administration of anesthesia. Two months later, on or around August 24, an 18-year-old had a cardiac emergency during surgery. He was intubated and transferred to a local ICU. Chemical analysis of the fluid from a saline bag used during his surgery revealed the presence of epinephrine (a stimulant that could have caused the patient’s symptoms), bupicavaine, and lidocaine. According to a complaint, surgical center personnel concluded that the two incidents suggested a pattern of intentional adulteration of IV bags used at the surgical center. They also identified around 10 other unexpected cardiac emergencies that happened during surgeries between May and August 2022. The complaint alleges that 10 is an exceptionally high rate of complications over such a short period of time. https://www.kxan.com/news/texas/dallas-anesthesiologist-accused-of-tampering-with-iv-bags/amp/
  15. Maloney & Maloney was the best in town until they got divorced.
  16. So Scott Frost is a margarita man. They must not have G2 and piss monitors up there in Lincoln.
  17. School me on how offsets work. Let’s say Herman takes the job. He’s owed $6.75M from Texas for 2023. If Nebraska promises him $3M for 2023, does the offset mean corn pays him $3M and we owe him $3.75M to pay off the $6.75M?
  18. My wife commented on how strange it was there was no DCC show this year. Even during the peak of COVID, they kept the DCC show going with virtual tryouts. I looked up why there was no show and found out about the Dalrymple accusations and settlement. He seems like a known abuser that has been doing this a long time. But Jerry knows the football show must go on, even if his longtime exec allegedly filmed women inappropriately (including his own daughter) with a phone. I can’t imagine what it’s like being a player and trusting this organization with your entire career.
  19. After that long kick I couldn’t stop thinking his name was Ernie Alabama
  20. The organization is shit starting from the top. Football problems are secondary. Look at the environment people are working in. Ex. Rich Dalrymple - accused of filming cheerleaders in the locker room. The organization paid a $2.4M settlement to keep 4 women quiet. Dalrymple was also accused of taking upskirt photos of Charlotte Jones (Jerry’s daughter) during a live stream of the draft room in 2015. This was never definitively proven and the live stream has never been seen again. Dalrymple worked 32 years in the organization and retired in 2022, years after the 2015 allegations and settlement, and he retired this year when the story broke. This is why the DCC cheerleader show didn’t air this year after 16 years despite the claims of being cancelled.
  21. It’s the crumb rubber pellets. All that black shit you see on the players. It gets up to 140 degrees in the Texas heat and gets so hot that you can’t get any grip no matter what cleats you wear.
  22. Bert Auburn Ernie Alabama?
  23. Who’s gonna make a big “URBAN AND SHELLEY ARE SWINGERS” sign and stand near the cameras?
