Wow, all this logic. Im beginning to think one of you guys found the WMDs.

Maybe, but they still deserve the shot to play them.

Congrats indeed. 13 - 0 National Chamion Utah Utes!!!

Go Utah, stake your claim to the national title. Opps, I need to ask Eagle 66 if its ok for me to root against Alabama. I mean they are from the South, just like us.

Wow, truly terrible comparison. I don't think rooting against a college team or against their fans can sompare to wanting people to die, or the hope that something happens against the better interest of the nation, or wanting ships to sink, hoping to lose a war, etc. Wow.

Too bad this is the last Cotton Bowl, now we get to look forward to jerry bowls.

Yeah, he will go to Denver. And there is a rumor that Im 6 feet tall. OH, and I wish Cower would come to Dallas.

How about we hire a gay coach, Think of that untapped gay recruit pool. Or, lets hire a muslim coach, think of all the muslim players we can get. Please lock this thread.

On second thought, I dont know if this would work. if we ever make it to a bowl game, we may miss it due to Hannakuh.

Um, I think the only "resistance" is that the next coach must be any certain race. I think the general consensus is that we hire the most qualified candidate. Well, except for MGInsurance. BTW, so if I was looking for insurance, would I get the same deal as a black customer?

Thats an idea, but then who would we recruit? I dont know how big the Alaskan recruit pool is.

Holy crap, are you freaking serious? You think we need to hire someone based on their race? I cant believe this thread hasnt been erased or locked, but good LORD! So by your definition, we should hire only black basketball coashes becuase a majority of the NBA is black, we should only hire Latino Baseball coaches because because baseball is large in the Latino popluation. We cant hire a male to coach a female sports team because women will coach better. So tell me, please, how it is permissible to hire someone based on any other criteria other than their qualifications? Charles DUI Barkley would be proud of you. Civil Rights and equality be dammed!!!

They couldn't even paint the endzones for the two teams. Wow.

Sounds like he is already wearing them. Probably crawled to FTW in them.

Im not sure why so many root against our conference. We should want our conference to do well. If we were in a BcS Conference, that would be another story. I don't think its a bad thing that they hired a local high school band. Im sure many other mid-majors would have found it difficult to travel to a distant bowl. Why not higer a local HS band? besides, it may help drum up some interest in their school from outside the state. And yes, I would have travelled to Detroit. I could have escaped into Canada for a visit. I heard that Detroit did alot of renovations to its downtown though.

All I ask is that you back up your statement, with something other than an apparant slam, which you did, thanks. As to the No. Never. comment, that tells me you dont know jack about the sport. If Im wrong, please contribute to the discussion. Yeah, I know the ratings for the all star game sucked. That has more to do with Bettman and the presentation. I think the product is excellent. The NHL will always struggle until Bettman is gone, and they promote more stars like Ovechkin and Crosby. If the current trend of bowl games continues, the NHL should look at a double or triple header of outdoor games every New Year. One in Canada, one in the Northern US, and one in the Southern US. If the City of Dallas can operate an ice rink in the West End, then I think a southern city can manage an outdoor rink for one day. If nothing else, have 2 games in northern states, both a "southern team" vs a "northern team" ie Dallas @ Chicago, or LA @ New York. There are only 4 or 5 bowl games over the entire New Years day. and they have it spread out in a manner which puts the freakin GMAC Bowl on the 6th, the day before the National Chamionship. People want sports to watch on a holiday. I think the NHL can benefit, if they do this properly.

Yeah, the ice was bad, but when you have the game's youngest and greatest star saying they have something there (in playing outdoors), and with the bowl system become more screwy, who knows. And I know there are alot of people who dont like hockey on here, so can we please limit the responses to people who actually either know something about the sport, or who can at least contribute to the conversation? Everyone else, please go pad your post count somewhere else.

So, every major sport has their holiday games. NFL has Thanksgiving, NBA has Christmas, and NCAA football has New Year's. Or do they? Last year the NHL began their new tradition of playing outdoor games on New Year's in an effort to get back to the rots of traditional hockey, playing outdoors on a frozen pond. Last year Pittsburgh and Buffalo played in Buffalos Wilson Stadium in a snowstorm, and the game was a huge success. I think this was the best idea Bettman ever had. I just wasnt sure that New Year's was the best day to do it, with the traditional big bowl games on New Year's. Look at this year though. The bowl games are all screwd up. You only have 4 or 5 bowl games on New Year's and one, maybe two of those are your big bowls. Even the Cotton Bowl is on the 2nd. They have the GMAC bowl as the next to last bowl game before the National Championship on the 6th. The NHL is rolling out the Red Wings vs the Blackhawks at Wrigley. 2 of the most storied franchises in hockey, and 2 of the original 6 (if you dont count the actual original 4 NHL teams) My question is do you think that the NHL could possible steal New Year's away from the NCAA if they keep screwing up the bowls? All this is of course assuming Bettman can grow a brain at some point.

I prefer Samuel Jackson Lite, as instructed by Dave Chappelle.

In Texas, you do not have a duty to render first aid, however, should you choose to try to help, you are not legally responsible, as long as you dont do anything that is obviously negligent, and once you do help, you do not pass the injured individual's care to someone who is less qulaified than you.

Love the Frogs, but I would like to see BSU win and go undefeated. Would look good for the Non BcS schools and give them a voice in the national title discussion.

I think we should consider Hulk Hogan or John Cena as our next strength coaches. Although our penalties per game might go up.

No, a degree helps provide you the opportunity to make a living. Its the job of everyone; coaches, teachers, friends, and famliy to prepare someone for a life after football. Yes, suicide is actually a very selfish act. Many times one does not consider the feelings and the aftermath of their actions.

Terrible. I agree, more emphasis needs to be put on preparing for a life AFTER sports. Sports are designed to teach you about life, not be your life. Just terrible.

Yeah, he is promising the kid that he will start DURING SRPING PRACTICE. Its up to Smith to do well enough to keep the job. Seriosuly, if you and Vito ever have a love child, That will be the most ugly, evil, hate filled child in history.
