  1. Huh? What did I say.. The first post you quoted was in response to multiple people telling me I was wrong for saying the second thing you quoted without saying why...some really have no idea, they were just going along with CTJ. Congrats on being late to the party and digging up something that long since passed.
  2. I somehow missed any discussion of Blue being some sort of team cancer, guilty as charged.
  3. I posted a lot of angry rants on the shag during the Chuckie/Tom years, nothing worthwhile.
  4. Pro-tip: If you're going to call someone out then provide examples of why what I said is wrong. Nobody has done that so far..
  5. Maybe there were, I wasn't aware of them. In fact I was always surprised by the lack of waves he caused based on what we thought he was going to be like. I watched a podcast interview with him (4th and Longhorn?) a little while back where he explained why he skipped his senior season. Of course that could be complete bullshit but sounded sincere and reasonable the way he explained it.
  6. Browsing the board and occasionally posting isn't the same as paying attention. Guess I missed all the Blue controversy. I knew about him entering the portal, but also know he came back out pretty quickly. If the coaching staff didn't want him around he would be somewhere else doing his thing.
  7. So everyone who doesn't see a path to starting and enters the portal has attitude issues? Apparently Blue's wasn't too bad since he was either talked into coming back and/or allowed to come back if he decided on his own.
  8. Blue never had an attitude problem, it was the media (and us to a degree) projecting that sort of thing onto him because he skipped his senior year. We sort of had the same concerns about Quinn as well if we dig deep in the memory banks.. These days I'm not sure a 5* skipping their senior year would cause such speculation..but probably would anyway.
  9. If you can't even sleep it off in your car (engine off) then what chance does this have of being allowed by law?
  10. Maybe so, but there was a stark difference between playing Bama in Austin with Rig12 refs versus Tuscaloosa with SEC zebras. I can't be the only one that noticed the refreshing lack of 10 minute game stoppages for what should be easy to spot on replay in about 10 seconds, and pretty much allowing receivers and DB's to do battle without ticky tacky bullshit. Of course that was only one crew, the SEC may be just as bad, but from the few SEC vs SEC games I watched the games seemed to flow much better.
  11. I think we should have gone west and saved the Pac, but that's just me. All the Pac leadership had to do is either tolerate LHN for a few years until the contract ran out, or negotiate with ESPN like the SEC did. Instead they chose the "unalive themselves" option, and here we are. There's no way a Pac that included USC, UCLA, Stanford, Oregon, Washington (all the others I can't be bothered to type) PLUS Texas, OU, Tceh and Okie Lite wouldn't be a worthy rival for the B1G and SEC. The 3 super conferences could have added all the worthwhile programs that make geographic sense, leaving all the left behinds to form their own conference..geographic sense be damned. Ahh well, C'est la vie.
  12. Well, neither were Tim Beck, Drew Mehringer and so on, but they among other wastes of oxygen are still drawing paychecks and choosing "football coach" as their profession on tax paperwork.
  13. I know in the past NFL teams tolerated much worse than a DUI, but times have changed. I don't know exactly what this will cost him, but it won't go unnoticed. I will say I was on the "Byron Murphy will go before Sweat" bandwagon back when that was an unpopular opinion, this just widens the gap further. I'm still a Sweat fan and think he can have a great career if he keeps his weight in check, but if I were a GM I'd take Murphy first.
  14. Variables such as it's not likely he didn't eat before or during...so add a couple drinks to that.
  15. Gotdammit, this will likely cost him a few rounds, doh![emoji85]
  16. Oh wow, looking forward to another season with Sunbelt Billy running the show has got to be rough. (I lived through the Chuckles and Turtle Tom eras, so I feel ya) I guess the thinking among the AD (whoever does the hiring and firing) is that if Billy can get through the '24 schedule with only 3 or 4 losses the pressure to shitcan him will be less..and also save a lot of money?
  17. I stopped giving a shit about the Rig12 long before we left, but I'll occasionally watch a game here and there if I think it will be a good one. Everything in the SEC is new to us, so even games against Moo State, Vandy etc will have a little something extra the first few seasons, but after that it won't be any more exciting than going to Lawrence Kansas or the little big apple. However I am expecting the quality of athletes to be a bit better across the board vs the lower tier Big12 teams since (other than Vandy) they can recruit a bit better simply because they have the SEC logo. I love the cognitive dissonance among aggy and even other SEC fanbases crying about our "weak" schedule. I mean it's still an SEC schedule and we've been hearing for decades about "how it just means more" and "SEC teams are built different" and all that jazz, yet we have a weak schedule? Does not compute..
  18. Suck it rams! Btw, sideshow only has one more season, right?
  19. Mail me the ticket, I'll immediately mail a "check" in full.
  20. These guys now have the patron saint of Michael Taafe to keep hope alive. Edit- wasn't supposed to be a link, can't be arsed to fix it.
  21. Bud ice is for frat boys and adults who burned all their taste buds off years ago. I tried all the cheap, crappy beers in my late teens, early 20's...but somehow Bud Ice got excluded. A few years back curiosity got the better of me and I bought one of those large cans during a fuel stop on the way to a fishing trip. All I can say is Natty light can hold it's head high compared to whatever liquid death was in that can.
  22. That's some quality trolling on the company dime, sounds like a great workplace, lolz (Minus the aggy and whoever hired him)
  23. Ahh, this is the one. Forgot about that, but now feel better.
  24. Fuck sakes...this is what we all fear when recruit threads are bumped.
  25. May just be me, but the shirt graphics look like something from the 80's. Of course for 18-25 year olds that may be a plus for all I know.
