  1. Texas always has a top 20 program. If you can always be overrated I guess being overrated from 15 to 5 isn't too bad. There are no small games for Texas. Everybody points to Texas on their schedule and says it's a big game. When all you play is big games then all you lose will be big games.
  2. University of Texas - Pan American Go Broncs! I believe we have the distinction of being the worse NCAA Division 1 team to ever be sanctioned by the NCAA. We're an independant. Most of our budget comes from being foder for programs looking to pad their record. One very bright spot. Our new (2 years ago) Coach Hoffman is great. Positive ethics like you wouldn't believe. Graduates a big majority of his players. Gives to the community. Will speak to any youth group and a ton of adult groups as well, even during the season. Last year he was our keynote speaker for a Boy Scout adult leader's banquet. The person who announced him spoke for 3 or 4 minutes on his team's accomplishments. He spoke for 30 minutes and not once mentioned basketball. His philosophy on relationships and mentoring young people was truly inspiring. We use to play DePaul every year until we beat them , then they took us off the list.

    he admitted it *after* getting caught. No choice at that point for him.
  4. Is it possible somewhere on every page to have a shortcut to the other boards? Instead of going from Pale Hose to Soxtalk to Off Topic (soon to be named Sex, Lies, and Politics) just jump right there? Or is there already a way and I'm just a dumbs***? Don;t answer the dumbs***, I already know

    Imagine of Zimm causes Padro to get thrown out. Can the umps eject a NY player (Roger for example) as well. Doesn't seem fair if a coach could get a player ejected. How about ZImm as the next Sox manager. Maybe he'll run out and attack some of our underachievers.
  6. What's your college doing to hype the upcoming b-ball season? Mine is having events all next week leading up to a midnight madness practice, the earliest allowed by the NCAA.
  7. Damn it's a great game. I went to see the UT-Pan American vs. A&M. Awesome.
  8. I emailed the guy with the link here. Hope he posts.
  9. My favorite quotes: A Cub fan would have stood back and taunted me with snappy one-liners and then run away. I'm usually offended. They might as well be saying: "You must be a Corona-sipping, brie-eating, self-absorbed meathead." Let's hope a couple more generations pass on before the Cubs find success. end quote I want this guy as our next manager. Hell the players play and the manager gives interviews.

    I want an anonymous benchcoach, who will work for cheap and have just a little something our PR department can wrap themselves around to sell as the final piece and give hope. Perhaps the next Larussa.

  12. Senseless tragedy. Let's also remember this happens hundreds of times a week to lesser known, but equally loved ones. My brother died from a collision with a tree caused by a drunk driver, himself. For a long time I hated him for doing that to our mom and dad. Remember a couple years ago the Indians lost a player from a drunk boating accident.

    In the beginning prophets wrote on the cave walls. Through the years they wrote on paper and subway walls. Where are the prophets writing today? Magazines, Songs, eZines, email, the Sex, Lies, and Politics board?
  14. Does it change anyone's posts if you thought the human as topic would be reading it? I know we had the be kind to Cotts sentimentality when he was, how can I say this politely, struggling with the parent club. Would you have pulled punches if JM was reading? Botch?
  15. Imagine if he waited for the post season . . .
  16. At least in NY there is no debate on who's the better team. They are use to sitting at home and watching the Yankees in the playoffs.
  17. What's the format? Are you news/weather/sports or personality? What demo is the station going after? We need so much more info to set you up properly. R&R format: grab a beer company as last name. Miller, Bush, etc. C&W: insert W as a middle initial, also works on right wing talk formats Dance, etc. throw a little mixed ethnic at them. Jaime Chong, Kalani Jaime, Juan Tutree Talk? Take it to the next level as William J. Rushmore, not just Rush ~ Rush-MORE

    What ever happened with their legal problems?
  19. Most years we can say "at least we didn't suck as bad as you" or "we finished 2nd and you finished 4th" or "what happened head to head?" The Met fans have to see WS titles piling up.
  20. Did Santo come over before or after Kessinger? How many other guys have moved back and forth? Sosa of course. I like Santo and as a 3rd baseman, I think he deserves to be in the HoF. The veterans committee will add him, probably and sadly, after he dies. I'm trying to be happy for the Cubs. 99% of Cub fans are fine. It's the in your face ass holes with something to taunt us with that really piss me off. I now have a great deal of respect for Mets fans. That has to be so much worse than this.
  21. Captain! We may have found intelligent life on this board. Yes, that post was well written with proper spelling and punctuation. You know that must stop. Who do you think it is? My guess is JM, he has plenty of time on his hands, could be him. Could be, who else would find the Sox board *after* the season. Welcome aboard. But I'm the bully and I use to pick on the scrawny Cub fans who grew up to wear pin striped suits to the games. Just look tough and they'll cough up their lunch money. By the way outside Chicago the world wants a Cubs-Red Sox WS.
  22. Another great skit was a 1970's Belushi, Akroyd, and I think Garret Morris on SNL. They are in little sperm costumes and explaining about trying for the egg. Swimming hard, the whole bit. Then when the big moment comes (sorry) and they are to be released, they find out it's a bases empty solo shot.
  23. What game the season ended weeks ago
  24. It has done this: If I hear one more time that we can't afford this or that I'm going to scream. We are a f***ing large market team. We lost to f***ing Minnesota. Before that Cleveland was kicking our ass. Minnesota and Cleveland! Buy me a WS appearace or get the hell out of the way. I don't want Billy Beane I want George Stienbrenner! I thought being 1600 miles away I could just pretend to be a Cubs fan and accept all the "you must be so happy" s*** comments. Nope, I get more and more pissed at my Sox. Hell my backup team, the Astros, lost to the Cubs. This season really did suck. Now I'm Boston's nightmare, I'm cheering for them.
