In a bizarre twist on OTF, I’ve run into some random handles that are questioning whether or not my handle there is an imposter. I don’t even know what in the hell to make of it. 

I really should pay to join over there just to start a c1ose to jumping handle

I think they were confused because you didn’t thank anyone.

Any post over there with even a hint of negativity gets taken down. I’m sure the random pot shots at you will be taken down momentarily.

They’d probably like me more if I posted as “closetopumping”. 

Please keep posting in that thread. The mere suggestion that DJ Sanders might go to atm got the merry band of idiots frothing at the mouth.

The crazy thing to me is that Elko is perfectly qualified to land an in-state DT. He’s better qualified than Baker. Sanders choosing ATM would cause another meltdown, but that’s due almost solely to entitlement. The guys over there are posting as if landing Sanders is a given and that I’m an asshole for insinuating that there’s an alternative option for him.

They also act like Sanders is a must have. If we’re to the point that he is, we’re fucked at that position. 

Yeah, grabbing a handle to attract attention is kinda lame.....wait

I remember CTJ handle being the result of numerous KatyBans but I didn’t think your original one was horndfl as the poster implied. What was your original on hornfans? 
 

I thought horndfl was a good poster but older and more docile. But I could be confusing things.

I started as horndfl on Hornfans. I was never banned and simply liked my new handle idea better. Used it from like 2002 forward and never felt a need to change.

Yeah, years ago if I remember correctly.

UT NIL murders OU.  And it’s impressive what CTJ and those here have done.  IMO definitely top 3-4.  But I’ll say tOSU has some old school good ole boys like Bruce Cassidy that are pumping that MF FULL.  They can compete with Phil.  And I say this sitting on the sidelines, happily.

And their record of not missing on a coach just stokes the flames and they know they're getting ROI, unless Day fails this season, but even then he's almost guaranteed to win 11 games.

Texas A&M 2024 Win Total | Season Preview & Prediction 

Cover 3 College Football Podcast ( 1day ago)

 

These guys love Collin Klein 😂😂😂

 

  • Chip Patterson is a North Carolina guy
  • Tom Fornelli is a Midwest guy that despises the Longhorns
  • And Bud Elliott is a Florida State guy who occasionally talks down Texas

Perhaps it’s my bias, but I struggle to take someone seriously who believes A&M is a long term investment. I’ll acknowledge the FedEx years, but…

Why the fuck did I unignore you

This has nothing to do with paid websites or the thesis of the thread

Tom Fornelli doesn't hate Texas

Bud Elliot doesn't hate Texas

Chip Patterson has been pretty aggressively pro-Texas

They make fun of every team across the country (most of all their own teams!) and because you're so laser focused on UT you only hear the negative and guess what? There's been a lot of negative over the last 15 years. It's really not that serious.

Okay what are y'alls pre-game, post-game media rituals in a post-LHN world? (Should this be its own thread?)

I enjoy listening to Rod generally, but when he does his Bob Shipley intro, I want to turn off the podcast

Unless Gerry, Bobby or C.J. are on a show Rod is leading, I can't do it. 

Love him on Longhorn Blitz and any other show where he's contributing. He has great insight , stories and experience. But when he's forced to M.C.(?) A show.....idk. it's cringe

I do like Rod, but I can't do the show with him and coach. I just can't. When he's in check by Bobby or Gerry, or when CJ is with him, it's fine. Otherwise I just can't.

Incredibly funny and also the most fake influence you could possibly have

Did someone program the AI generator at Sports Illustrated to stop writing phony articles and make a funny list?

In a fucking unbelievable twist, Hayes Fawcett is a spitting image for @texifornia, right down to the haircut and what I can only assume is a pair of hush puppies. Holy shit.

This is a stupid way to compare, anyway. 

Leaving aside the merits, of lack thereof, of the analysis, Texas’ DL doesn’t have to be better than OU’s DL. Texas’ DL needs to fare better against OU’s OL than OU’s DL does against Texas’ OL.

If Texas’ OL is a 9 and OU’s DL is an 8, advantage Texas. 

If Texas’ DL is a 7 and OU’s OL is a 6, also advantage Texas. 

That doesn’t work out to, oh well, Texas has the better OL and OU has the better DL, so it’s a wash. That works out to OU getting worked.

This is correct. And the reason why OU would mudhole us in the early 2000s when we had better overall talent and especially offensive skill talent. Their Defense especially on the line was so dominant we were handcuffed. 
 

Well, greg davis supplied the handcuffs and Stoops and Co happily locked them. 

The receivers one made me laugh. Texas has the deepest room of receiver talent and those idiots think a couple of injuries is what separates that crap OU receiver room from the best in the country. 

OU corners are shit. Not good for a defense that loves to walk it's safeties up into run fits going against the deepest receiver room in the country. 

It will all come down to fire and fight. I we come out and treat them the way we did Alabama and Michigan we will destroy them. If we come out like we did against MSU they will hang around like last year. 

This is where Sark needs that killer instinct. If you have them down 21 in the 3rd quarter try to make it 50. If you put Arch in up 40 in the 4th try to make it 50. Don't let up for anything in this game.

For the first time ever, he's not wrong. 

Anyone else getting victim's rights PSA's from the Irish Government on their OTF podcasts? Can't for the life of me figure out how I'm a target for those. I don't even use a VPN.

OTF podcasts are borderline unlistenable. Two minutes of introduction; a sponsor read by Bobby or someone; 30 seconds of content; 2 minutes of blaring advertisement with no warning; 5 minutes of content; a sponsor reminder; 4 minutes of content; 2 minutes of blaring advertisement; and so on. There's good information in there and I like the guys. But the overall product sounds terrible even with the ability to skip forward.

Yep. This is why I watch on YouTube so I can fast forward through the bullshit.
