So what's the best sauce on the #1? Have they ALWAYS had Chick Fil-A sauce, or didn't that come around later? Do lesbians really scissor, or is that kind of just something we joke about?

Everything would make more sense if we'd all just stick to Redtube, you guys.

In Garland's case, it is somewhere in between. Uniformed SRO's are on campus in each high school and middle school, and elementary schools generally share an officer between 3-4 campuses.

Except that they couldn't sell out a freaking playoff game until hours before the game. Gloops. http://www.myfoxhouston.com/story/20507997/2013/01/04/tickets-still-available-for-texans-game-for-now Save the Oilers Rally forever!

How did California University of Pennsylvania steal Xmus Jaxon Flaxon-Waxon out from under our nose??? THIS IS WHAT A COACH WITH A CAREER LOSING RECORD GETS YOU, FOLKS!!!!

Thompson never looked Quinn or Fitzgerald's way either. They played one play less than Chancellor, but DT STILL refused to look their way!!!1!! BENCH HIM!! NO EXCUSES!!!!! GEORGE MARSHALL WAS OPEN!!!!! ... and who doesn't let Broderick McGrew return kicks in such a big game?!?!? EXCUSES!

Best complaint thread ever?

Kinda concerning?

Matt Bryant hates you for perpetuating the belief that it's okay to disrupt his long FG attempts with public fornication. http://www.11points.com/Music/11_of_Ludacris%27s_Sexual_Fantasies_That_Are_Just_Too_Damn_Unrealistic

Why he doesn't get more touches ill never know

On the bright side, this team makes Darrell Dickey look like Don Coryell.

Maybe they're wrong, but everyone I'm talking to days Apogee looks dim and Foutsish on tv.

What a corncob. Obviously not from Flavortown. Reddit better be stayin' ready, just in case.

The thread is "CougarKing's Postgame Thoughts". If there's ever a thread that can't be derailed, this is the one.

Right, because every thread on the football board always stays completely on topic and never tangentially breaks off even a little. By your standard, you've just violated your own rule. See? The spirit of the law, not the letter..... Complain to the people who started the whole side debate.. I jumped on the train late, responding to RJMunthe who responded, I think, to someone else (which is okay.. it's a spare message board thread). Also, see Lifer's post right above mine. Explains a lot of the hijack background.

Welp, this seems like a solid way to handle things. In seriousness, though, whatever your personal feelings on the subject - the "bigger time" the fan base, the more irrational shouting for firings on the internet the day after bad losses, you know? What you're getting mad about happens tenfold on "big time" power conference message boards. All things considered, we're remarkably and often depressingly tolerant and sane over here. Try having a start like this at a "major" college program and watch the insanity unfold. HFC at North Texas is a relatively easy, no stress gig. Also, don't go the route of getting banned, creating new IDs and then failing to see the irony when you spend time posting under said fake ID to say how lame the board is and how little you care. It's embarrassing, and I honestly think you're better than that, Stormchaser. Cool off and hang in there.

Team Centerville? (Woody's is nothing to sniff at....)

Talk like that might get you banned from ClevelandBrownsFanzz.com, sir.

In all seriousness though, I think the Oilers rank at the top of my "uniforms all of us hated as kids but now realize were cool" list. When my Spring Valley Athletic Association U13 team got to pick which team we'd be (got cool replica helmets and all, it was big), we were given the Oilers or Broncos. We were the last team to pick. We went unanimously Broncos (the blue helmet with the Bronco jumping in the "D"), because no kid I knew thought the Oiler uniform was any good. I think it was because of the light blue or something... this was the early 90's, when everyone I knew was into black/teal/red trim, things like that.. (look at what the Falcons did at this time and every expansion team anywhere). Looking back now, the Oiler uni (especially the helmet) were pretty great. I miss that helmet. Look at how the Chargers' powder blues are revered now, while they couldn't WAIT to ditch them way back when. Cyclical, I guess. I feel like the Oilers look is way more timeless and classic than the Texans (or any new-ish franchise these days), but I'm sure that just reflects my age. Time will tell. Also, speaking of Houston and uniforms, I know it's controversial, but I wish the Astros would bring back terrible rainbow t-shirt jerseys for the move to the AL. I get that they're legendary for mostly the wrong reason, and you can't scream a time period more than those scream 70s-80s, but I love 'em. Throwback games this year were awesome.

Look, I miss Ernest Givins too... but that's not what's happening here. I'm just responding tenderly to "he who shall be banned yet creates new user names to tell us all how stupid this board is".

More than one discussion can happen at the same time, man. It's not that hard. Yeah, UNT got beat. I never predicted otherwise, and don't see how anyone could have done so, to be honest. I'm having internet back and forth with another UNT fan (meangreener/rjmunthe) who claimed Houston > Dallas as a sports town. That's all. I know, though... the internet is HARD!

Pretty much. When you google "Best Sports Cities in America", the very first result is The Sporting News, who ranks Dallas at #1. Houston? Scroll down a bit (a good bit) to #24. http://aol.sportingnews.com/sport/story/2011-10-04/best-sports-cities-the-list-from-1-to-271 This spare Fox Sports blog has Dallas Top Ten, Houston unranked: http://tshq.co/2011/03/the-ten-best-professional-sports-cities-in-america/ Even freaking Coldwell Banker, trying to help people relocate and buy a house, ranks Dallas top 5 (Houston unranked): http://blog.coldwellbanker.com/best-sports-cities-in-america/ But fine... as the inferiority complex of our resident Houstonian message board pariah dictates, all these lists will somehow be dismissed. We'll choose to ignore the fact that every single list anywhere (and any sane impartial sports fan without a dog in the hunt) would agree that Dallas is, quite simply, operating on an entirely different level as Houston as a sports town. It's essentially common knowledge, but forget all that. Let's go sport by sport in this Georgia Tech vs. Cumberland College level blowout, shall we? Football - not. even. close. Yay, the cute little Texans are 4-0! Hoorah! One playoff win in their history (Bengals??) compared to the five Super Bowls up I-45, where, you know, the most valuable professional sports franchise in the freaking United States plays. The fact remains that J.P. LaDouceur taking a dump in a helmet (beneath the 21 division championship banners) would essentially double the ratings of a Texans playoff game. As if this comparison isn't already absurd enough, let's plan on the "HISTORY, VALUE, AND RELEVANCE DOESN'T MATTER!!11!" rebuttal on the way, shall we? Okay. In the last ten years, the barely-on-the-radar franchise down in Houston is 68-95. The Cowboys, mired in their worst decade in franchise history, are 86-72. Okay fine.. "BUT..BUT.. WE WERE AN EXPANSION TEAM AT FIRST!!!11!!". Sure thing. How about the last five years? Just the past five years!! Houston is 41-39... the terrible, irrelevant Cowboys? 47-30. Quite simply, there's not a metric on earth that even begins to joke that these two franchises are on the same level... they've barely played the same sport. But hey, Houston is a great football town. I mean, it wasn't unprecedented or humiliating at all when the "Save the Oilers" rally drew less fans than an average Monday morning CLASS at UNT. http://www.thefreemanonline.org/features/the-nfl-oilers-a-case-study-in-corporate-welfare/ The Astros... Well, The Astros. That kind of sums it up right there. I feel for the Astros. It's really just comedy at this point, but it's kinda sad. Still, if you want a good laugh, this can burn hours: http://deadspin.com/houston-astros/ The Rockets DO have those two titles... basically the only statistical advantage anywhere in this list... yes, it's a good thing Jordan retired. I really pulled for those Rockets teams back in the day, actually. Fact of the matter is, the Mavericks have established themselves as an elite franchise in the NBA over more than a decade now, while the Rockets have fallen into complete obscurity. The last season the Rockets advanced further than the Mavs was in 1998-99. FOURTEEN YEARS AGO. Even with the TERRIBLE Maverick teams of the 90's factored in, the teams have win percentages within .005 of one another. Balanced against recent performance, national relevance, and the fact that the Mavericks have outdrawn the Rockets by an average of 3-4k for the past decade (as well as the fact that Mavericks rank in the top 5 in merchandise sold over the past decade) make this a pretty clear cut case of Dallas having the better franchise by almost every single metric. Dallas has a NHL franchise (with a Stanley Cup). Say whatever else you want about it, but there's no franchise in Houston. Dallas is one of those elite cities with all four major sports franchises. Houston isn't. End of story on that one. It could be worse, Houston. You're probably a better sports town than a few other cities. Tampa, maybe. There's one. But don't bother sniffing around big brother to the north. This is an entirely different sport we're playing up here. It's like Altuve trying to post up Dirk.

Kinda hope this thread title is just a euphemism.
