Quoner

I loved when Marshall beat Michigan last year. Good stuff. I also just found out I'm going to this game and hope it lives up to my cricket-infested almost-Arkansas State upset last year. I have seen Texas play 2 crappy opponents in the last two years (SHSU and ASU) and have been consistently amazed that their defense line cannot push these "dinky" teams off the ball in any form or fashion that reflects their talent. I now they are using very vanilla schemes and stunts, but it always led to a conversation between me and the Mrs. about how its going to be a long season and then a thanksgiving full of laughter and mirth.

It's always sad when a fan favorite leaves. I bet he looks back on everyone here pretty fondly.

The underpants gnomes say that "profit" is step 3. Anyone know step 2?

Don't doubt how UNT-related this is. A retired and bored Favre would have had the connections in place to become part of our AD

What happens when he gets a mushroom- or, shudder - a star?

In high school we were hazed and forced to randomly sing the fight song on the spot. We all knew the words to avoid embarrassment and further hazing. If RV has the courage to do what's right to FIX THE PROBLEM, he'll let the football team haze the rest of the student body!

Way to go, Coach!

You sound like Bobby Knight.

They've been delivering posters before each season for the last few years - Jamie makes sure of it.

So what's first - someone turning on nautique or someone insulting Fentriss?

What's the WB? My TV's been dialed in to UPN all night.

I post from down under all the time

Sadly, no one has bowed up and threatened to kick another poster's a$$ for about 5 months.

An LSU national title, baby! Geaux Tigers!

Unless he's sporting some sweet hardware near his sack, I only know of one ring to speak of.

I bet they remember that way better than the two wins this decade.

As always, I am able to gracefully and understatedly handle the 8 second shout-out: http://tysports.blogspot.com/2008/08/he-lo...no-wait-he.html

Really - they sped up the weekend matches to out-pace a 3 hour baseball game? That's awesome. Still, its like my friends on stormfront always say, it ain't a sport unless white people control it.

If you are so concerned about misinformation, why are you linking to a message board? Unless they make you a mod, I doubt your effort to go all Guliani on the posts here are not going to pay off.

So we should infer its so dumb even a Pats fan can piece it together? Also, does the tuck rule come into play on the sex tape?

Dear Pakistan and India, Cricket sucks and Kram thinks you're NUTS

I disagree with this - but understand why you think it. Major corporations always have their detractors. If Wal-Mart, Microsoft and others let the naysayers drive their actions, they would quickly be wiped away. In the non-athletics world, more and more corporations are tracking and considering the thoughts of these naysayers and the good ones are even finding ways to leverage them. College athletics is just adjusting with everyone else to the infancy of every fan having a real voice via the internet. If it is harnessed and used right, this new type of conversation is a huge asset. I've been interested in this topic for awhile too and have been gathering some ideas and stories to use for a bigger blog item on the matter towards the beginning of the season. If anyone wants to indulge the serious side of me, feel free to PM.

I heard he's really the Fake Lonnie....nevermind. JK, Lonnie!
