Coffee and TV

I've been saying the same thing for months now. Forget the 0-12 record and remember the rivalry.

Great hire for them, and really smart to. He's never proven much in the NFL but has done great turnarounds for NCAA teams. Wish we could do this same sort of hire.

Paul McCartney beats the crap out of anything the Stones ever did. They should have him do halftime shows until he's on a walker.

This happened:

They're a formidable mid-major opponent and I think they would travel well to Denton. I don't like the idea of playing in the altitude in a fairly loud place, but I'll take a home and home.

I'm not arguing they had an easier schedule, but to say they would be a .500 team or below with the players they had is just pure ignorance. Last I recall they were a wild card team last year with about the same team & a tougher schedule. And like I said, this isn't college. Every SUPER BOWL team has to go through the same set of playoffs the other guys do. Just because Pittsburgh gave themselves a harder run isn't any fault of Seattle's. Seattle lost because they could not execute, not because they had an easy schedule which meant they couldn't be the good teams. They mauled Carolina, and handily beat the Skins without Alexander.

Dude quit being stupid. Regardless of the schedule they won 13 games with a loss to the Redskins (whom they later beat in the playoffs), and Green Bay in the last meaningless week of the season. Pittsburgh won the superbowl on a bad offensive pass interference call, 2 missed field goals, a prayer pass, a questionable Roethlisberger TD, and a gimmick play. I would hardly call the Seattle loss due to a difference of talent on the field. It came down to a lack of execution, and the stats clearly show that.

Yeah because you can still get to the Super bowl by having an easy schedule... The fact that they beat more crappy teams this year didn't show in this game, the lack of execution did.

The schedules are still all against NFL teams, weak or not. Any given sunday, remember? This isn't college where you can go 11-0 against I-AA's and sunbelt teams.

this was 8 years ago, so im probably off on the time & date, but I recall something fishy being reported about how Mabank was trying to stay 3A.

If memory serves me correclty, back in 1998 Mabank placed a fair amount of kids into a "private school" during the spring semester in order to attempt to stay in 3A and not move up. It didn't work, and I can't give you all the details, all I can say is that my dad coached for a school Mabank's district and had heard about a lot of sneaky stuff like that that happens.

Yes. just about every game, actually.

Why is Air Force so low? Do they have recruits who have yet to get through all the hurdles of being accepted into an academy?

and you may be right, but my point is that its none of our concern why this guy didn't want to sign with us.

And then plaster our stereotypical and savage-like logos on everything? Not to mention sing dumbed-down made up versions of a ritualistic battle cry? Yeah, this is all just a PC thing...

It took a lot of courage for Darrell to get up in front of the cameras after what he's been through.

Leave the kid alone. He's 18 and if he wants to go to KSU because he thinks he has a better chance at scoring with the chicks there, then that alone can be his reason if he damn well pleases. He doesn't have to give you or anyone else any reasons for his decision.

You people are always looking at the glass half empty. Try and look on the bright side and remember that you will never have to hear that stupid stupid stupid annoying war chant again.

helloooo Hawaiiiii....?

It's ok people I'm sure. See what happened was that he had Flannigan over for dinner and while he was making salad he felt like he was a having a heart attack. It was actually just indigestion, so hope you get to feeling better Dickey!

Seeing as how the Super Pit is larger than some ACC arenas, notably Duke, one could venture to say we wouldn't have to worry about being "half empty" if we didn't build so big.

Ruining a beautiful thing.

I think I'm going to have Plumm start writing my essays for class.

Yeah, but people on this board worry themselves into a heart attack thinking about this kind of stuff in january.

I think there are other more important things to worry about this time of the year. Like if Jeff Bagwell will be in a Houston uniform next year.
