  1. The Cowboys have had the same coach since Jimmy left the building. I've posted this before, but the last Cowboys game I watched was when Jason Garrett iced his own kicker. Was working on a project and had the ESPN gamecast and this thread up. Not gonna throw bombs at guys who still support the Cowboys. Hell, I started watching when Meredith was QB, Don Perkins was fullback. It just got painful watching this zombie corpse wearing Cowboys gear stagger around.
  2. Damn, who fucked your girl, just chill. Who hasn't?
  3. She's looking at something $5000+, and wants you to say, "Oh, OK babe, whatever you want." so you can get back to the game and she can get her diamond studded salt shaker.
  4. Ohio State is 11-1. They won't be playing tomorrow, so what they are is what they are until their bowl game. Can't see them sneaking into the picture with one less win than six other schools.
  5. I don't know if he missed the block or saw Parsons, got this exact look in his eyes, and said, "Nah, Imma block this guy over here, instead." Haven't watched NFL in a while, so, random thoughts from a guy that's now a total casual. It was GREAT on the last two Dallas defensive series to see them go after the QB instead of dropping everyone and letting them work underneath. Prevent defenses are the worst. Do all NFL players piss and moan for a flag after every damn play, now? You don't need to do a thug pose after a three yard gain. The game's better with the sound off. The former Seattle player that was running his mouth on the halftime show needs to drink a big cup of shut the fuck up.
  6. Liked that they went after the QB instead of playing soft.
  7. You bring up a great point. One of the toughest things about being a head coach is keeping control of the program. Everybody involved in these programs is an alpha personality. All the players, all the BMDs, and most of the coordinators and assistant coaches have a Jerry Jones fantasy, where they're calling the shots. One of Saban's strengths is he can tell people to sit their asses down and start rowing with the rest of the team and make it stick. One of the reasons it's hard to find a good fit for Texas is that the higher the program profile, the more powerful the power players. Nah, Aranda has the look of Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man. His problem is he is a beta personality in an alpha world. Baylor's doing everything they can to protect him, but he's the classical "paralysis by analysis" guy. There's a power vacuum at the head coach level, so the program is rudderless. Baylor can't keep Aranda at this point, cause as long as he's there, every season will be like this season, and the B12 is now the AAC-MWC. Rhule took the job cause Baylor was a P5 stepping stone. Dittos for Briles. That advantage doesn't exist anymore. You're right on Traylor, cause Baylor isn't a step up from UTSA now.
  8. Yormark thinking about a Texas-Oklahoma title game:
  9. Holgorsen wasn't hired to win games. He was hired to get UH into the B12. He'd been through it once, cause he was WVU coach when they went to the B12, and had a ton of contacts in the league. Agree with you totally that UH wouldn't be on my Christmas list if I was coach job shopping. Got a few donors that want to run everything, and nobody in the whole city gives a crap about the Cougars, including the students. I've been to Arkansas a few times, and couldn't imagine living there. Beautiful scenery, but a little too "Dueling Banjos" for me, if you get my drift. Truth on the expectations. Baylor just extended Aranda in 2021, and the rumors I've heard are that the buyout would be 20 million. If his games continue to look like the Kansas State game, they might let him go, but right now, they're trying to protect him and avoid the buyout. I don't think he runs the program. The program runs around him, and they may try to find an up and comer coordinator to take the reigns while letting Aranda continue to do the worst pressers in the history of the universe. Would SMU be an upgrade over UTSA? I know, I know, everybody's looking for the bigger, better deal, but Traylor's making 2.5 mil at UTSA, the whole city loves him and the Road Runners, and I don't see the SMU gig, where nobody in the metroplex is ever gonna give a shit about the ponies as a fun job.
  10. Winstons. If you've ever wondered just how disingenuous all advertising is, check out these Winston commercials. Not trying to get kids hooked or anything.
  11. The owner's name is Sneed. It was formerly Chuck's.
  12. You left out the most important part. Fuck Oklahoma.
  13. aggy has 75,000 students, including grad students. That's only $1,000 per student for the buyout.
  14. At least TCU is burning clock with their drives.
  15. I'm pulling for... If they win, it gets one more undefeated team off the board.
  16. No clue how many kid fights I got into, but probably about .500 on that. My attitude changed in 8th grade, after an altercation. This one kid decided he wanted to fight me. I have no idea why. He sneaked up behind me and kicked me in the small of the back when I was approaching a stairwell. I kinda snapped into a robot zone, grabbed him, and started to throw him over the railing. An older student grabbed him back and walked off. The older student never said anything to either of us, and I didn't recognize him, but after I calmed down, I realized I was in the process of throwing that kid head first over a railing with about a twenty foot drop to concrete stairs. I started avoiding altercations after that. Did some karate after I got older. Don't remember how many matches I had, but I know I knocked two people out, and got knocked out once. The kid that wanted to fight me wasn't a good fighter, and he went around trying to pick fights a lot. A few years after I graduated, I heard he had gotten killed in a fight. It started me wondering what kind of fucked up home life he had to spend most of his life picking fights he was going to lose. The junior high I went to was the one where the kids from the state home and the methodist home attended. I was too young to realize it then, but there were a lot of tragic backstories on that campus.
  17. Also @'stache and all the other Okie State fans. Congratulations. You got scoreboard over Oklahoma, and that's a great thing.
  18. Going off memory, but I think Oklahoma was the driving force behind killing OU-NU. At the time, everyone figured the big three were going to be Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas. Oklahoma wanted the Texas game for recruiting, and they didn't want to have to play them both in conference.
