  1. Dang, hook1997, it's a little dusty in here to be reading something like that.
  2. Just dropping in to say I was wrong. Never in a million years did I see 11 - 1 coming.
  3. That was an absolutely masterful coaching job tonight. Sark and the players were lettin' 'em hang.
  4. I've been burned too many times by drinking the Kool-Aid. Not fallin' for it this time. I voted 9 wins. I think we lose to Alabama, get screwed by calls in another one, and find a way to lose one we shouldn't. I'll be happy to be wrong.

    F cancer.

    Man, I'm sorry to hear this.
  7. I had no idea Ibraheem was still associated with the program.
  8. A little perspective here. Was Quinn perfect? No. But - if you expected him to be, you haven't been watching much football this year. When it became clear we could not run, we had to put the offense on him. He went 31/47 for 369. He threw the ball away when he had to. He did not turn the ball over. Worthy had three straight-out drops. 1) the one down the middle in the 4th quarter 2) the little slant that hit him right in the chest, and 3) the long one down the left boundary. There was also one occasion where he absolutely failed to track a potentially catchable ball. Whittington had a drop on 3rd down. Add in those 4 "should have beens" (yeah, I know...), and you get a stat line of 35/47 for approaching-Texas-bowl-game-record yardage. Had you been told at the start of the year that your freshman QB would, in his bowl game, go 35/47 for over 400 yards, would you have said: 1) That guy sucks. or 2) That's a pretty good effort. I still think Ewers is going to be good, maybe not great, but certainly good enough. Putting a loss like this on him is just silly.
  9. Under no circumstances would I throw another ball to Worthy. Maybe ever.
  10. I saw your uncle play MANY times at the Continental and other places. He was a fine bass player - always enjoyed his music.

    Hudson Card

    Card has earned my respect by going out and competing to the best of his ability when he was called upon, even when injured. That's enough for me. Sometimes things don't work out, but I wish him nothing but the best as he moves on.
  12. I should have seen this one coming. I've had a persistent cough for the last couple of weeks, and have been prone to coughing fits that go on for several seconds. Here I am today, standing in the bathroom taking a leak, when a coughing fit hits. You know the rest.
  13. I keep thinking this game may be very important to Sarkisian's tenure on the 40. Has any Horns head coach lost to Kansas twice in football? Certainly not in back-to-back years, I wouldn't think. Since Kansas is fairly new to the schedule, let's equate them with Rice and ask the same question: has any coach lost in back-to-back years to bottom feeders?
  14. KSU, 31-20. KSU total plays: 63 KSU long: 31
  15. I'm thinking 3-2. Should probably be 4-1, but I think we'll find a way to lose a game we should probably win.
  16. My God, these announcers are an absolute beating.
  17. Have you seen their dogshit schedule? The only good team they play the rest of the way is Ole Miss. I'll count that one as an L. They SHOULD win all the others, unless they find a way to aggy it up against LSU. So, worst case, they go 7-5. Best case, 8-4. Pretty mediocre.
  18. Not yet. I'm confident she's saving it for when she needs it.
  19. Texas 37 Gooners 24 Worthy+Bijan = 184
  20. I have to buy a new microwave. Mrs. Mudcat killed it. I didn't know that was possible. Turns out, it is. The Mrs. was going to heat up something for 1 minute. She wrapped it in a paper towel and started the microwave, walked away and started watching TV. A few minutes later, from my office, I think "hmmm....I smell something burning. She's probably burning the toast and will figure it out." A few minutes after that, I'm thinking "something's on FIRE!" I walk out of my office, and smoke is pouring out of the microwave. Smell is overwhelming. I go to stop the microwave and see that there are 11 minutes and 53 seconds left in the cooking time. Uh oh. Open the microwave, and the PAPER TOWEL IS FULLY ON FIRE. Substance in which it is wrapped is no longer identifiable. She never smelled a thing. The microwave still stinks and part of the ceramic coating (?) on the inside is flaking off. It's done.
