Rex vs. ztexjas is the battle to the death that I never knew that I always wanted.

What if.  And I know it’s a big what if, but it gets so bad that they both get the bam hammer

If Rex wins does he get to keep all of Z’a surly clout?

Yeah, it's not perfect. But there are also Land Rover models. The Land Rover models compared to the Range Rover models. They use some of the same parts, the same processes, and some people argue you're basically buying the same thing for a lesser price, when normal people feel like that's really a justification for spending less money. Same thing with Tudor/Rolex. 

The thing is, Rolex was started first, then Hans Wilford founded Tudor as a company specifically designed to sell very nice watches at a slightly more affordable price. 

Going back to the original athletic department analogy, Rolex is like UT-Austin, Tudor is like UT-Arlington. There's not really an equivalent car company. 

But to compare Texas and SMU athletic departments, a better analogy would be to say Texas is a Rolex, and SMU is some other nice but not exclusive brand. Frankly, SMU athletics isn't even that great, although they've had some recent success. Seiko maybe? SMU is the Seiko of athletic departments. 

They are all Land Rovers. Land Rover Range Rover. Land Rover Defender. Land Rover Discovery. There is no such thing as just a Land Rover (anymore). That is the make. 

This is all a ridiculous discussion but this is surly, after all....if you really want to make an automotive analogy then Hans Wilsdorf Foundation is to Rolex and Tudor  what Volkswagen AG is to say...Bentley and Volkswagen.  

I don't even know what the fuck we are talking about anymore.

My brother used to work at Pearl Brewery, all the beers were the fucking same thing, Pearl was Pabst and it all came from the same batch of beer. Same thing with the Land Rovers. They just slap a new name on it with a different grill and you pay more thinking you’re getting something different.

I didn't even start the automobile comparison. I'm just saying comparing Texas and SMU athletic departments to Tudor and Rolex made no sense to me. It's more Rolex to Seiko.

The Texas AD had $270 M in revenue last year. 
 
SMU raised $159 M last year ($100M after the ACC move was announced). 
 
This is cute

I read it was $333M.

I would compare  A&M to Omega. They don't understand why their brand is not stronger than Rolex even with all the money they spend on promotion. Perhaps the fact that they keep churning out so many watches every year and anyone can buy their watches have something to do with the brand dilution? 

Swatch is more accurate.

If he wanted to be an AD at a wealthy private school, he would have never left TCU.

Of course it's a possibility you lunatic. Hartzell literally - months ago - left Texas for SMU. That's why I started the thread - that's why there is discussion being generated.

Literally?

Based on the current discourse in the basketball forum over Scott Drew, I think they're going to lure Derka into a threeway

The pressure of my job.... i got me one of them smart watches.  I figure that watch will give me enough time to shoot a baby aspirin before I stroke out.
