  1. Good thing about Orangebloods is they don't have twenty-something idiots trying to tell you how great they are because they don't know anything about the history of sports. Bad thing is everyone but Anwar is hard to take anyway.
  2. Reading the pulse of the criminal fanbase, they're not buying it. Criminal media is doing their best to play it up, but the inmates remain cynical. Even so, I don't think most of the criminals realize just how poorly Mateer played against P4 level competition last season. Counting on him to level up against even stronger SEC competition is sketchy at best.
  3. Criminals signed a mid level Southland Conference receiver from McNeese State. Nagy really has that NFL scouting working wonders.
  4. The meth is constantly manufactured there. Last year at this time Arnold was going to throw more than thirty TDs, over four thousand yards, win the Heisman.
  5. They're hoping a "hard cap" will be instituted so they can back to the illegal payment game because they know Texas won't play that game. Deep down they know what they are, which is a straight up group of criminals that can't compete without cheating.
  6. The soonerscoop guys are truly bi-polar. They constantly pump sunshine, but after every loss they go scorched earth, yelling, cussing and wanting to fire everyone. Ikard and Lehman admitted after the draft that they're not anywhere close to Texas, and they don't expect to be close soon.
  7. Hope "missed tackle" Stutsman gives Banks, Broughton and Ford the horns down the day he's cut.
  8. I remember watching NBA draft night 1996 when the Lakers traded Vlade Divac for Kobe as the number fourteen pick. Many pundits said the kid can't shoot. Said kid can't handle the ball. Jerry West said Kobe's the best player I've ever seen in the draft.
  9. Reason they don't nut up like Kobe is because they can't.
  10. Adrian Peterson and Patrick Mahomes also from east Texas.
  11. I'm thinking east Texas is the greatest part of the state. Earl Campbell is enough. We can cite more if necessary.
  12. Seventeen year old boy said I'll take one anyone in the world to get you to draft me.
  13. Balls. West traded for Kareem. Drafted Magic. Drafted James Worthy, Byron Scott. Five titles. Kobe told him he was better than all those guys. Nothing compares.
  14. Pansies don't want to work out. Kobe begged to work out against every player in the draft and any all-pro who would play against him when he was 17 in 1996. Kicked butt up and down the trail. Greatest basketball talent evaluator of all time, Jerry West, said "Shut it down. He's the best." You don't get that any more. "
  15. Thinking more violations and prison sentences occurred under Switzer than any coach in history. That's quite a legacy.
  16. I'll try to explain this in a common sense way that most can understand. All this talk about a "cap" and "fair value" doesn't have a legal leg to stand on because there hasn't been an agreement between the parties. When you go to work for a company, they can't tell you they won't pay you but you must work anyway. You agree to work for a certain amount under certain conditions, and that's the deal. They can't limit what someone else will pay you either. If they don't pay you as their employee, they can't make you work. Simple as that. They're making money off your work, but they're not paying. That's the problem here. Now, if the schools pay something, which is what the House settlement would do, but they don't have your consent to the amount, either individually or collectively, then it's still not legal. This is basic market capitalism.
  17. Exactly. The NCAA v, Alston decision, which paved the way for NIL, specifically warned the NCAA not to come back before a Federal Appeals Court trying to protect their anti-trust policies because the NCAA doesn't have an exemption until and unless they make athletes employees and legitimately negotiate revenue with them. The current strategy of the NCAA is to get Congress to give them such an exemption. They're hoping the House settlement will convince Congress to do it. Congress has no reason do it. Furthermore, even if Congress does, there's no reason to think the Supreme Court wouldn't declare the legislation unconstitutional until the NCAA makes athletes employees. They better face reality and admit it's a business.
  18. I don't think this judge has a very good grasp on broader constitutional principles. This roster limit thing is nothing. She can play games with it for a while, and maybe the NCAA just gives in. The big problem is the "fair value," third party judgment system on NIL deals. That's what the NCAA wants in the deal and that's exactly what has no chance of standing up to legal scrutiny at higher levels. Unless the NCAA gives up on the idea that they don't want athletes to be employees, they have no chance of gaining some control.
  19. Just had a nice exchange with a criminal sooner sycophant claiming Nagy is an NFL GM genius. Asked him to name a successful NFL GM who spends big on an injured RB and and DT who rides the bench because he won't play or practice hard. Not surprisingly, no response.
  20. Aggies would no doubt like to show up in speedos.
  21. These boys just keep making you think they're gonna do it. Loved seeing Galvan talk to that Texas State pitcher as he was strolling to first.
  22. Turned it off right after Duplantier gave up the grand slam. Checked back to see the final pitch of the Galvan walk and then the Flores grand slam. I'll take that as a good omen.
  23. Watched a good bit of Mateer and can't say he's a solid passer. He's adequate against low level competition, especially outside of the pocket when guys get open because the defense breaks down. We'll see if Mateer has the athleticism do that against SEC competition. He hasn't displayed it, which is what the numbers above show. I don't care about his emotion. That works both ways. We'll see how emotional he is when Anthony Hill closes on him like a rocket and knocks the crap out of him.
  24. I talked to criminal sooner fans and others about this who claimed Mateer was a great pick up. The general criminal response was "Baker Mayfield." The non criminal response was he's gotta be better than Arnold.
