  1. Thank you. I have received two DMs from folks concerned about the fact that I referred to Mick Jagger as a British tourist. One said "I don't want to embarrass you publicly, but that is Mick Jaggar, the lead singer of the Rolling Stones, with Stevie Ray Vaughan." My sense of humor apparently doesn't translate as well to the interwebs as I would like it to.
  2. If the Aggies come to Jimbo and say "here's 30 million dollars. You can take it now and not have to coach another game for the rest of your life if you so choose or you can coach for the next nine years in hell to collect the full 90 million" my guess is that Jimbo would take the money and run.
  3. No doubt. And that is why any recruit who has offers to schools like TCU and Texas would be foolish to not choose Texas. Texas plays on a national stage.
  4. This is incorrect. A&M won its only national championship in 1939. Color TV was invented in 1950, 11 years after that, but weren't readily available to buy until 1955, 16 years later.
  5. Traces of Texas is now on Counter Social. Liking it so far. The interface is slick, but takes a few minutes of fooling around to understand.
  6. Sagarin has Texas at 7th in the nation and TCU at 13th.
  7. Ha ha. I was amazed. I got a screenshot of it but I wonder if any of y'all saved the game on your DVRs and could send me a video? Here's what the screenshot looks like.

  9. We very nearly beat Bama and deserved to win the game with a team that was 5-7 last season and returned a bunch of the players who contributed to that 5-7 season.
  10. Damnit. I hate it when I come here to Surly to post something funny and one of you has already beat me to the punch.
  11. Holy crap. Take a look at this photo one of my readers shared with my page:
  12. But next time don't be quite so dramatic. You had us really worried over in IPIIHB. 😀
  13. Well, that's what the book impresses upon you ... that these young men were idealistic lads who bought into the whole "war as heroism" fantasy, only to be disabused of that notion in a very harsh manner.
  14. New A&M fight song? I was gonna cover the kickoff, until I got high I was gonna study that freakin' playbook, but then I got high ... Now I lost my f**kin' scholarship, and I know why Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high
  15. We are watching this now. Really entertaining. Finished season 1 a couple of days ago and will start season 2 tonight. There were a few logic leaps etc but I didn't find that I had to suspend my disbelief too much, at least relatively speaking. Pretty clever plot.
