  1. Yep.. all that practice in the swamp water in Baton Rouge obviously didn’t prepare them for that.
  2. Forfeit a little much. Lol. But getting in their ears and staying in it from the Rice game until Tech would be preferable. And go ahead and call it what it is in pregame or weekly press conference and pay the damn fine if the Commish issues a fine. Surly and a few others might chip in and help pay it if Sark is winning games this fall.
  3. Almost time to revive this thread again. We better have lube bought by the bulk. It’s going to be screw job from the get go this year. Me thinks the KState game might be the game we see the most BS from the Rig 12 Refs.
  4. Yep. And Mayberry was another small South Texas town kid from Floresville. Not in the RGV, but still part of the whole region that historically gets overlooked.
  5. Robert Garza is probably the most recent overlooked product from the RGV via Rio Hondo. He went to TAMUK up the road and got drafted in the 4th round by the Falcons, but probably had the most impact on the Bears. He was one of those who should’ve been on an FCS roster. UTRGV when it was Pan Am back in the day had no problem recruiting talent to come play down there for basketball and baseball. They had some pretty darn good teams in the 1970s and 80s especially on the diamond. It wouldn’t shock me if they exceed expectations.
  6. My Grandfather was a Greek immigrant who joined the US Army at the Age of 17 during the WWI era and later worked the shipyards in Aransas Pass as a young man. Met my Grandmother to be and moved south to what is now north McAllen and became a successful farmer. Didn’t have one hour of Ag education from a college much less a college degree. He did raise one daughter (My Mom) who went to UT and a son who went to A&M, so he was .500 there. Lol.
  7. The upside is if we actually perform as predicted and win this conference, we should be the one or two slot each week of the season in the rotation of games ESPN/ABC/Fox pick from meaning we won’t get the Fox B or C team which is Brando and Spencer.
  8. The irony is the aggy players came dressed like the society pricks they like to link the ‘sips too. And our guys showed up to media days wearing the Nike issued short sleeve shirt and jeans. Which team is more sure of itself?
  9. Fuck Tech. Just like Baylor I hope we never voluntarily play them in anything after the 2024 spring sports season.
  10. Damn… Open up your own BBQ joint. Lol
  11. After reading through some of these threads a simple question needs to be asked. Have you all seen or heard one “TU” fan get butt hurt over horns down? I haven’t. I laugh about. I roll my eyes about aggy and other schools making a big deal about us thinking it’s a big deal.
  12. Road rage attack captured on dash cam of CBS Austin meteorologist https://cbsaustin.com/news/local/road-rage-attack-captured-on-dash-cam-of-cbs-austin-meteorologist
  13. Don’t forget the ones who drive Dodge Challengers and Chargers. That seems to be the vehicle of choice for douchebags in the Houston area.
  14. This is spot on. I can’t watch five minutes of a game Beth Mowins calls. And we all know why she will keep on calling games. Another exhibit in ESPN’s downfall.
  15. That’s debatable. The fact they kept someone who is even dumber than Alberts and Pollack in Desmond Howard is all you need to know why ESPN is in the situation they are in today. Howard and his stupid pick for aggy last year for the college playoff should’ve been enough cause to shelve him. Lol.
  16. ESPN still employs Lowel Galindo…….
  17. Yea they played TAMUK a few years ago up in Jerryworld. They got beat up pretty good in the first half, but came back strong in the second and gave the Javs a scare.
  18. Actually 51 and recall heat waves of the past which came with severe droughts too. It’s been hot, but we haven’t been breaking records across the state almost daily or getting close to those records like we did during some of those heat waves.
  19. Does the Omaha minor league franchise play at the same stadium?
