Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it
How about the adults in the room educate the kids in the room and use it as an opportunity for growth and understanding. Nah we can’t do that. We have to follow whatever the mob tells us to. What I would like to know is who on the team is the mastermind behind this, what if, any, connection they have to outside agitators at OU, LSU, aggy, etc that would like to do us harm. This fucking shit isn’t spontaneous. Time to do figure out who is behind this fiendishly ingenious plot.

Let’s talk about their threat of not participating in recruiting visits. What the fuck man. Our rivals are just going to love that. We have our own fucking players sabotaging our recruiting efforts. No need for others to negatively recruit when our guys are doing that. Destroy Texas football even further. Lincoln Riley is smiling his ass off.

I want to hear Earl, Ricky, and Vince. I'll do whatever they want. Was going to post something to this effect. Let our 3 greatest players discuss it and the majority decision to keep or get rid of it.

I have a humanities degree. Even back when I graduated it was well on its way to devolving into the garbage it has become.

The truth is that majority of the fans would most likely agree with your take. Unfortunately for you, you have gotten a rise out of the cabal thought police for voicing what most of the donors are actually thinking. What I care about is our program first and foremost and having a war between the fans, players and administration is the last thing we need after a decade of suck. Again, look at what’s happened to Mizzou to peak into our future.

Why do you hate your own kind so much?

That sounds like an excellent compromise to me and opportunity for real growth and understanding.

Those divisions and campus protests at Mizzou caused a massive drop in applications and attendance at sporting events. If going to a UT game is going to get politicized over signing the Eyes you're going to create a similar toxic stew which none of us wants.

Good! They shouldn't. What they should care about is my Foundation donation and how loud I cheer from my seats. The players are not realizing that this ask of theirs can rip our fanbase apart.

Come on man, I don't have to spell out the huge difference between a nickname and flags being flown of the entity that wanted to keep blacks as slaves versus the Eyes which might have been played initially at a minstrel show. Whether the Eyes was performed in blackface would be a nice fact to know and could change my opinion.

Bingo. Giving fans even less incentive to come when there are COVID fears, economic uncertainty, shitty product on the field and now add this. CDC needs to come up some sort of compromise with the players without sacrificing the Eyes. Think of the money issues we'd have with the capital improvements we are making with an even more demoralized fan base. Look at what has happened to Mizzou with their athletics to see our future.

Yes. You want the nice new SEZ, locker rooms, and training facilities. Who the fuck do you think is paying for that? Ask the donors in the Texas Club and in the suites on gameday about their opinion about getting rid of the Eyes. I don't give a shit about the opinions of the players like I don't give a shit about the opinions of any other student. Get an education and protest to your heart's content. The value I place as a season ticket holder is the atmosphere of being at the game live. One of those amenities is singing the Eyes after a game. You want to destroy Texas football, get rid of the Eyes and see what happens.

You haven’t lit the cabal bat signal yet. Where is @Brisketexan with his long-winded narcissism to back you up. You’re fighting on the hill alone with no back up

The origins of the fight song versus decades of fans singing it without a hint of racial animus. If the origin was racist it is wrong. It hasn’t had any tinge of racism until hearing about this claim now.

Fuck off. The Eyes of Texas is our fucking fight song. You might be fine with sacrificing anything the cultural Robespierres might want to chop off but maybe the rest of us who value our history don’t. I’m waiting for you and the rest of the cabal to chime in and agree with your bullshit position. This isn’t the same thing as the traitor Confederate flag or statues

Iconic photo. Love that Texas t-shirt in that font. Would definitely buy one. Bring back the same font for our jerseys too- NFL of the 1970s
One of my favorite photos. Encapsulates all that is great about Texas.- NFL of the 1970s
The NFL became the dominant force in American sports during this decade. America’s Team and the Steelers dynasty were born. Luv Ya Blue, Earl and Bum were roaming at the Astrodome and Houston had its best ever success. I was just a toddler during that era of football. Tom Landry and Don Shula coaching great teams. For those of y’all old enough, what was it like going to a game at Texas Stadium or the Astrodome. As someone who lived and died with the Glanville/Run N Shoot Oilers, I always wished I could have watched Earl and seen Bum on the sidelines with blue Pom Pom crowd in the Dome going wild. What was it like? The Thanksgiving game between the Oilers and Cowboys which the Oilers won. What was the lead up and after the game like? Monday Night Football with Cosell. Compare and contrast to the NFL today.- Minneapolis Cop Murders A Black Man
What the fuck are you talking about- Minneapolis is Burning-+* The moderators and admins of this site are TERRIBLE and STUPID and IGNORANT.
LOL. You no longer have right-wingers like myself in the echo chamber and that has you and the rest of the cabal acting like complete bitches. Y'all ruined the CR and drove everyone like me away the chain negging and idiotic name calling perfected by morons like @wildcat09. That's the truth- Door to Door Sales Cocksuckers
Michael Caine and Robert Duvall have the right approach to deal these type of salesmen- Texas football has a writer at The Athletic now, Kaelen Jones
I have an issue with an outfit that glorifies a stinking rat traitor propped up by a fuckface reporter with a grudge. Also they’re partners with Texags. If they last, they’ll go the SI or Deadspin route and have freelancers getting paid $50 an article soon.- Texas football has a writer at The Athletic now, Kaelen Jones
Even though I have a subscription to the Athletic that runs through the end of the year, I have boycotted them because of their anti-Astros bias and for glorifying that fucking rat piece of shit Mike Fiers. I hope they go under. Fuck Evan Drellich too.- Minneapolis Cop Murders A Black Man
If we are going to generalize, Han Chinese are hard to beat when it comes to racist attitudes from my experience: unfortunately, it’s prevalent everywhere dude. - Earl Campbell being Earl Campbell
