  1. Reminds me Kobe kicking Kwame Brown to the bench about every third game. Be about five minutes in, and Kwame would raise his hand to come out at a dead ball. Phil would ask, "What's going on?" Kwame says, "Kobe told me to go to the bench because I'm not playing hard enough."
  2. Speaking of Arch... We've heard about Arch taking over as the leader and hardest worker. Here's a recent interview with Indy Colt great Marcus Pollard, in which he talks about Peyton's work ethic and leadership. "If I tell you it's Easter, you better hunt eggs." You can scroll the bottom to get to the Peyton parts.
  3. I like Kelly more than most, but I'd suggest he concentrate on finally winning an opener this year against Clemson rather than worry about Arch. As for Nussmeier, cut down the ints, play defense and establish a run game to help him out.
  4. Heard some guys talking about Alabama gearing up to get the $599 system going. That was funny. On Saturday I listened to Alabama guys actually talk about that exact tactic and how to use it. They were pretty excited about the possibility of returning to the old days.
  5. Criminal sooner motto. Switzer has been giving Nagy the lowdown for months in anticipation of the opportunity. Problem for the criminals is that the courts will blow this up before the old bag game can be reestablished.
  6. Moss best outside receiver in the history of football. Couldn't stop him in man. Deion best man cover corner ever. Got smoked. Like Kobe against the Spurs one on one. Reason the pansies literally changed the rules.
  7. True, but it doesn't change the statement. Jahdae didn't follow Smith. Man on man Jahdae would have shut down goober. Didn't have to do that. Not Deion against Randy Moss. Moss won against Deion by the way.
  8. Gerry said Texas couldn't stop Jeremiah Smith without playing press man. One catch for three yards. No press man. Played one corner with a safety over the top. Don't think Smith is the greatest receiver ever.
  9. Don't know. As a Texan, my favorite coach is Tom Landry 1977.
  10. Ain't nothing compared to Mia Scott. Made every possible play. Reminds me of Kobe 2001.
  11. Look at Trevor Goosby there bigger than everyone.
  12. I'm thinking 1987 might have been the greatest year in the history of Western civilization.
  13. Lock that woman down, CJ. Good as it gets.
  14. I hope Baxter and Mia Scott produce some Texas legacy players.
  15. It should be noted that players in sports that don't generate positive revenue won't have a legal leg to stand on in court. The whole premise of this is that schools are making a ton of money and refusing to compensate those who generate the money. If the sport doesn't generate positive revenue, there's no money to share. That's the cost of removing the veil of amateurism.
  16. You know the clearing house stuff won't hold up in court, but there is a good chance the revenue share component won't hold up either. The way this is being set up by the schools is to have players sign "publicity rights" waivers in exchange for some money. If a player can prove that such a waiver is financially limiting, the rights waiver will be struck down also. The rights are inalienable. Again, it will be individual players that sue, not the schools. Then why did the judge agree? The judge agreed because she doesn't care how stupid the schools are. It's not her job to make sure they can't be held accountable in the future. Without an employment agreement there is no legally tight way to establish the limit. I've read a couple of legal assessments that argue the NCAA is intentionally setting this up so they can stoke public discontent and get Congress to grant an anti-trust exemption. You can't have an anti-trust exemption without an employment agreement, so that's a wash at best. They could've already taken the employment road and truly "settled" the issue, but they're stubbornly resisting that outcome.
  17. When your perspective comes from the prison shower, you tend to view the world from the downside.
  18. I wouldn't say they're "siding" with athletes. It's basic constitutional principles. People are free to make money in the US. Even if colleges make athletes employees and then get a collective agreement for a maximum in return for a minimum amount of pay from the colleges, there's just no way to legally curtail income from NIL. It's flat out a violation of core "rights." The truth is that it will eventually curtail itself, as it does in professional sports. Not every pro player has marketing deals. But some college players can make a lot of money through marketing deals. All they have to do is show up in court with the proof that they are being financially harmed and the injunction will be granted.
  19. "It's no joke. It's rope, Tuco."
  20. Coolest man ever turned 95 eight days ago. No one can touch it.
  21. Mia Scott reminds me of Sade.
  22. Nietzsche had a complete white head, which is unusual for a border collie. He could take multiple word commands consistently. Border collies can take commands every second consecutively all day long. He took multiple commands at once " "Get back and look..." "Find girl, come back..."
  23. Walker Wolf best tracking dog I ever had, but I can't give him a command to track what. Coondogs don't take commands. They go and that's it. Favorite dog was a border collie I named Nietzsche who would get the mail for me. He'd find my keys when I told him. Unfortunately he couldn't herd well. Strange. He was weak on the push. Never understood it. I'd give him two repetitions on anything and he could do it. Mail, diapers, keys, frisbees, boy literally tried to figure out anything I wanted and did it as far as an intelligent dog could. Bought him for 100 in Los Lunas, New Mexico in September 1998 day before he turned six weeks old. Came to me first when I called the puppies in the litter and I took him. He was in my lap when Rickey killed the Aggies in November 1998. Never experienced another being like him.
  24. Don't get me wrong. Border Collie Gael is probably the best dog I've ever had. Smarter than a whip. Responds instantly to everything I command. Thinks on her own. Gathers stock from a mile. She doesn't track.
