  1. So not the favorites and apparently people talking a little shit so they just go set a new WR?
  2. Just so you guys know, Gottlieb does not speak for all of us. At least the rational ones. I don't blame OU or Texas for making the move and neither owes us anything. I think we've done a pretty good job over the past fifteen years building our brand (thanks to Boone, Holder, and Gundy) and now it's time to see if it makes any difference. My guess is no, but that's the way it goes in college football. It's basically impossible to break into the top tier and be accepted. I guess maybe Clemson is the exception to the rule. Also I, for one, don't give a shit if we ever play OU in any sport ever again. Probably petty and shortsighted, but like I said...it's time to move on.
  3. I don't really have an issue with t-shirt fans in that it's obvious you need them to grow your brand and that's what everyone is trying to do. I start to get annoyed when they move past sports and talk shit about the school I graduated from and refer to it as a community college or some other bullshit ignorant dig. This is what I grew up with in Oklahoma where everyone is a POS Sooner fan and many of them never stepped foot in a classroom.
  4. Ha, hope I didn't give the impression I made this. Even if I could source the wood, I don't have the tools. I just buy the pieces and finish them. Also have a kitchen table that's similar that I need to do again.
  5. Got damn I almost died laughing when the tow hitch broke loose.
  6. I've never done a major home reno, but I'm pretty sure Covid is making it worse than usual. Deadshank would know more about how things are going.
  7. 11AM kickoffs suck balls for anyone going to the actual game. Completely ruins all the pregame festivities.
  8. I have family who didn't think Trump ever lied... about anything I guess. I mean, he lied repeatedly...on a daily basis...about all kinds of dumb shit that didn't even make sense and nearly all of it was very easy to refute. Mind bottling.
  9. Amazing the amount of bitching A&M has done over this. When all is said and done, they still have a seat at the table. Could be worse...they could be in our position.
  10. I'm okay with masks indoors and hope things peak and trend down before we go in October. Just have a feeling it's going to get screwed up again though.
  11. I think it was actually Nebraska, Colorado, Mizzou, A&M, UT, and OU leaving that did in the Big 12. Not sure any conference could survive that.
  12. This was actually a car forum I rarely visit anymore because it's an echo chamber of ignorance.
  13. Reading other boards and the anti-vaxx crowd is loud and proud spreading all kinds of anecdotal evidence and false information. Zero headway will be made with these people.
  14. Saw someone yesterday literally stop in the middle of I-10 so they could cut across two lanes of traffic and make their exit. A semi damn near plowed them into Bolivia. They had their turn signal on though so all good.
  15. Someone should tell us why the PAC/B1G/ACC should/should not add the Big 12 leftovers.
  16. Just wanted to check in and say Fuck OU.
  17. The original Big XII (less Baylor plus Arkansas) was great and would still be great today had it held together. Would probably be in position to pick off other conferences right now.
  18. Baseball and golf would be a good fit in the PAC. I still think we end up in Big XII 3.0 and hopefully can hang on long enough for the inevitable mass realignment that impacts everyone.
  19. I'm ready for the official statements to be done. Let me know where we end up. Otherwise stop talking.
  20. The same five scenarios will be rehashed countless times over the next week/month/however long this bullshit takes. Just hope it's over with soon so we can move on.
  21. One reason I booked late October was to hopefully avoid the worst of the heat. My guess is they'll have a record breaking heatwave that week.
  22. This is true and is why I think we ultimately get relegated. I think we bring more than what we're given credit for, but not enough to offset the reduced shares to everyone else.
  23. Exactly. It's bullshit to act like every conference is full of powerhouse programs. It's essentially the same mix of blue bloods, mid-level, and doormats everywhere.
