  1. Absolutely. No argument from me on that. Johnny and Stevie are 1A and 1B on my list of favorite blues/blues rock guitarists. Johnny was the first I was aware of, being introduced to his music at the tender age of 8, in spring of 1970, when my oldest brother returned home from the Navy on leave shortly before my family moved to Texas. He brought with him a copy of Second Winter. As I had learned the previous summer that our family would be moving to Texas, I was enamored with all things Texas-related, and although I didn't know yet that Johnny was from Texas, there is a song on this album titled Hustled Down in Texas, so my attention was grabbed. Then I listened...it was eye opening, to say the least. I've been a huge fan ever since. Fast forward 11 years, or so, and I'm a junior at UT, and first saw Stevie live at the old Austin Opera House, opening for Johnny. That was one of my all time greatest concert experiences, accentuated by the fact that I was front row, less than an arm's length away from Johnny and Stevie. My previous post was really just a response to the fact that I believe Johnny gets overlooked too often when people discuss great blues artists.
  2. Thank you for posting this picture. I love me some Stevie Ray, but Johnny is the man, as far as I am concerned. He put Texas blues guitarists on the map, and resurrected Muddy Waters' career, but is seriously under appreciated.
  3. Shit must be borked...your pictures aren't loading.
  4. Piker. Bijan averaged over 17 YPC during his senior year, and over 13 for his high school career.

  6. So, I'm watching the Kansas/Seton Hall game for some reason. Game comes out of commercial break, and the crowd at Allen Field House is in the middle of doing the Florida State war chant/tomahawk chop thing...why?

    The Pep Boys?
  8. Anybody remember Baby Giant convenience stores? I bought my first six pack of Coors in one when I was 14. That was a big deal at the time not only because is was my first beer purchase AND I was underage, but Coors had only recently been made available east of the Rockies at that time. Good times.
  9. Gil Scott-Heron hates him some NASA...and apparently whitey too.
  10. Marquette just went all non-consensual on Baylor; 96-70
  11. Marquette just pantsed Baylor by 26; 96-70.
  12. That would be funny. But seriously, what this indicates to me is that Sark has a level of introspection and humility that Tom never had, or at least never showed. This alone bodes well for his growth as a coach, and will hopefully manifest itself in more consistent ass kickings of opponents on the football field in the very near future.
  13. Maybe they misunderstood him when he said he wanted dykes.
  14. Username checks out.
  15. This seems like one of those posts that will get bumped several times next year to highlight what a terrible post it is.
  16. I'm struggling to tell if this is schtick...have you read from the top of the page?
  17. I'm almost afraid to comment on this, but is this part of the piling on? If not, thank you...I'm not the only one.😅
  18. What a great picture...fuck the haters.
  19. Wow...look at the big brain on Nostradamus over here. No joking, this is pretty danged impressive.
  20. I don't think we look at the MB era negatively...we look at the last 4 years of MB's tenure, and the way he left, negatively. If he had retired after the 2009 NC game, he would still be remembered fondly around here.
  21. Bumping this just because.

    Geez...other than 2006, has Colt ever had the benefit of a solid OL in front of him?
  23. Did this actually happen? If we allowed this, that's on us.
