    Guess Texas or SMU asked Shane to wait on announcing his transfer until after NSD2..... 

    Would be interesting to know why.... lots of reasons possible.

    My guess  is schools don't want the slightest perception of negativity leading up to NSD2.

  2. csb?

    I attended junior high in the mid 70's, played football.  One afternoon, after practice, I went upstairs into the coaches' office above the locker room.  I noticed a jar of eye-black sitting on the desk.  Eye-black was not used extensively by junior high players back then, so I was probably mesmerized by it.  Head coach notices and suddenly comes up with the idea for me to don blackface.  I have curly hair, and my hairstyle could have been termed as an afro (being the 70's and all).  I remember being reluctant to do so but Coach insisted.  After applied, head and asst coaches died laughing; head coach then wanted me to visit a teacher with him.  I didn't want to do this but, I was 13 and again, Coach  insisted.  Since it was after school and not many students were around, I agreed.  Coach shows me to teacher, she has tears from laughing so much.  Glad there weren't cell phones back then.

    Oh, both coach and teacher were black. 

    BTW, I'm not implying donning blackface is ok...

    Pretty much. 

    There's 2 sure things to look for.

    A 5k 1.1 downward departure

    And it will mention it on the judgement and commitment order.

    Something like 85% of people in the feds are rats. They convict at a 93% or so rate. Given the first stat, it seems like it's pretty easy to be a federal prosector.

    We need an incarceration thread, I find this stuff fascinating for some reason.

    Small town whataburger should be a separate category from city whataburger. Those glorious sons of birches take pride in their work, it’s really a different restaurant. 

    Warm (not over) toasted bun, melted cheese, a balance of condiments. Most importantly the meat is hot and has a char grill snap from the griddle.......

    *’my dog just started to howl the star spangled banner 

    I have the opposite opinion.  Whataburger in Mineral Wells & Cuero sucks.
