    Worse than a room full of menopausal women
  3. 49-0 will do
  4. Right behind the interviewer. You’ll see when he steps to his right at his beginning
  5. Ten years ago on the old pre-scat shaggy site, I posted the DMN article commemorating pop999's (and our old Okie neighbor's) streak of 50 consecutive Texas-OU games attended. https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2012/10/14/texas-ou-fans-from-park-cities-mark-50-years-of-a-friendly-rivalry/ Yes I'm aware of the DMN paywall. A year later, HLN did a piece on them on Robin Meade's show in the morning. Before I post it, let me explain the following: A preemptive "fuck you" to anyone who gives me shit about wearing a red shirt to this. I was given the wrong time for arrival and had no time to change out of that work shirt, which was for Gold's Gym in Garland. This interview was being shot from a bar on Ross and 75. When I was asked if I was coming, I had to cancel my next two PT sessions, jump into my 2008 Mustang and drive all the way from Belt Line and Garland Road to this spot. I had 27 minutes to make this drive of 16 miles on city streets. Not an easy task. I sped, ran red lights, whipped a quick left turn in front of oncoming traffic to get into the parking lot merely 5 minutes before this live shot took place. Anyways, here it is: 1210468_781166065360_997522655_n.mp4 Now for the rest of the story: Ten years later, both streaks (as well as my own of 31 as of tomorrow) remain miraculously intact. I say "miraculously" because we did manage to get in for the 2020 COVID game, and that was no easy task, either. Pop999 does have the tiebreaker on Beamer by virtue of the fact that we both went to the 2018 Big 12 Championship game while he did not, so his streak is restricted to Cotton Bowl games only. Of course, those are the ones that matter. Anyone who's been to at least 3 of these games can attest to how both unique and special every one of them is, win or lose. Here's to hoping the 60th turns into the most special for him.
  6. I like you a lot less than I like them for making me thinking of something nice to say about them. That count?
  7. Just ask Rob Parker
  8. Herschel Walker Killed 5 Homeless?
  9. How long until it’s uncovered that he actually has killed someone?
  10. That man’s been kissing Donald Trump’s ass since well before any of us saw Stephen doing it to Calvin Candie in Django Unchained. Of course he has no discomfort in kissing rich white ass.
  11. It was actually during the Brown years. And it was really just a cult following. There were some who were into that kind of thing, and that’s because that’s the kind of thing they’re into.
  12. They converted. As I explained in last year’s thread, the most transparent example is the Tower of Texas ride. Prior to 2021, that thing cost 20 coupons. Now? 10. It is true that some things did increase in cost. So for example you might run into beer that used to cost 8 coupons ($4) and now it costs 5 coupons ($5). But there’s nothing that I’ve seen that increased by 100% and anyone who says that’s what happened is almost certainly lying through their teeth about it. And as far as previous years, yes those are all good except in cases where there was counterfeiting. That, I don’t think, has ever happened but I’ve been told that if it does, they would void the whole year’s coupons. So if enough people pulled some horseshit in 2018 (or related to coupons printed in 2018) all of 2018’s would be voided. If any of you shitheads try that, I will throw you down a goddamned flight of stairs and I’ll get away with it.
  13. “That last number is a 4, but the writing makes it look like a 9!!!”
  14. I haven’t seen any reason for their joining. Perhaps they’re the very best Canada has to offer to the point where they’d like to fry bigger fish, but to me this looks a lot like when Prepa Tec tries its luck at football against UIL heavyweights.
  15. Oh no doubt this isn’t their first exhibition of…issues. Just the very latest. My prediction is MSU will go FCS once that Sikes Mall gets bulldozed and they get their own stadium built right next to the lake. Yeah they probably had a tough time explaining to border patrol how those things lodged in their asses were placed there involuntarily and beyond their control. All kidding aside, apparently they’re used to this. I was trying to find the highlights on YouTube and all I got back was some other games SFU played against other LSC teams…going back 3-4 years ago. And yes, they always get killed like this and if you saw those videos, you’d know why. Put it this way; you’re gonna have a damn difficult time convincing some random Wylie Pirate or Plano Wildcats football fans that Highland Park (let alone their own schools) couldn’t beat this team.
  16. Midwestern State did something similar over the weekend. Defeated Simon Fraser 77-0, with SFU gaining only 61 yards total offense. https://msumustangs.com/sports/football/stats/2022/simon-fraser-b-c-/boxscore/11775 ”But slugga, I don’t even know who Simon Fraser is.” You wouldn’t unless you’re a devoted D2 football junkie…or you live in British Columbia, Canada. Yes, you read that correctly. Even more bizarre? This was a Lone Star Conference game. Again yes, you read that correctly. The LSC has been so desperate to replace all of the recently departed (Tarleton, Abilene Christian, etc) that they’re apparently willing to reach across international fucking borders.
  17. I actually had this in mind
  18. Well I see that someone clearly had something specific on his mind…

    Yet another MVP performance by the league’s most valuable player, since he is the most valued player in the league. MVP
  20. “It’s the theory that you shouldn’t be critical of other races!!!”
  21. He is no iron-born. No iron-born, he.
  22. But see, that’s something they cannot say.
  23. That’s always going to be true regardless of what y’all’s records are. You could face them 8-3 vs 7-4 and it’s still going to be the big circled calendar date of the year. That’s what makes rivalries special, not championship implications. The championship implications aren’t going to be there every single season. And that’s not unique to college football, either. Back in 2009 I coached at Wichita Falls High School. The team was terrible. By the end of the year, they’d gone into the final game 2-7. No playoff spot available to them, no real purpose to the rest of the season, right? Except that last opponent was Wichita Falls Rider; their arch rival…who was also entering the game 2-7 with no shot at the playoffs. There wasn’t an empty seat in that stadium, and it was known to be that way well in advance. In those games, the records don’t matter. In 1997, Texas and Oklahoma met in the cotton bowl, and neither team had a winning record (Texas was 2-2, OU was 2-3). The stadium was filled to capacity, again as expected. It’s also well understood that a big part of your job as head coach of either school depends on whether or not you can beat that team across the river. If you can’t, you’re not gonna last long. Again, the argument that expanding the playoff diminishes the regular season relies on inherently fallacious reasoning. I can find no better example of a non sequitur than that. Well maybe I can find a contender…
