Hmmm, that should shake out then. Wonder what the top 3 teams in the FPI have in common? Oh yeah, all Big 12 teams (Baylor, TCU, and Oklahoma).

You have the attention span of a 2 year old

-Last year’s eventual national champion, Ohio State, debuted at No. 16 in the first CFP poll a year ago. -Only one of the eventual top four teams last year (No. 2 Florida State) was in the top four in the inaugural poll, validating the fluidity of these rankings.

So cussing violates core values? Don't throw your shoulder out reaching. Sadly, you may have to stalk Charlie somewhere else next year.

The Patterson rumors are ridiculous IMO. No negotiations took place until after the option period. However, as I've said before, UA made it known as early as July (around the time the Michigan/Nike deal was leaking) it was willing to open the bidding at 150 over 10. This is done all the time by all the major players with institutions and players. You are correct that part of the UA tender was stock based. However, UT could liquidate on the market if it chose, and many would estimate the value could be more than $26M/yr based on this. UA has shown continual growth and with Steph Curry/Jordan Spieth/Tom Brady/Kershaw/Harper, etc., they continue to grab more of the market. Regardless of all of that, apples to apples it was almost $10M/year more. It is enough there is some head scratching going on.

Final deal was $250M over 15 years. However, UA final offer was $260M over 10 years. In addition, UA was prepared to commit to relocating their corporate headquarters to Austin, demonstrating their intention to make UT the brand of the brand. From what I'm told, the interim AD turned UA down without so much as a formal meeting. Glad he is comfortable turning down $10 mil a year. For what it's worth, football was pushing for Nike while Shaka and Co. wanted Under Armour.

Prayers up

Kid has been running at will.

I vote they have turkey wattles hanging off their chin straps for the LSU game...

RSJ - dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb Senseless penalty demonstrating a complete lack of discipline. And no coach in his ear as the game breaks at end of quarter. Some problems are self evident. In other news, I do like the holiday unis. Nice job adidas

Unfortunately I'm out of likes....

Reading comprehension is your friend. ;)

Very good point. Hadn't thought of that.

Holy crap

very interesting indeed

fair enough. It hurt mine too since it's like banging your head against the wall. And by the way, let it be known hippy is a very bright guy from Lumberton who is also a conservative. So no stereotypes by me. I don't assume anything until it's proven to me! Now back on topic!

I will resolve to be impressed you know idioms, even if the concept of modified idioms was a bit foreign to you. I will post a funny video below on the subject with a language warning. In the meantime, I have emailed NASA and various members of congress to let them know they needn't worry anymore. I have been informed by Billy Bob from Lumberville that it is all a hoax and that science shouldn't been researched by the academia. (But I will have to get back to them as to who should do the research. Still a little unclear there.)

pot calling the snow black... :D

I would never stereotype. You have the market on that. Don't be so insecure!

cheer up. NASCAR is Sunday.

The hysterical part of that, and I do mean I got a literal laugh, is you apparently think you "won." As for the second paragraph, you would never know. Quite obviously. And I have zero doubt about that

I am all about the blue collar worker. But I prefer scientists for science, and doctors for medical opinions. Call me crazy. But again, I'm sure it is bliss in your world. A little Limbaugh and Fox and you're all good. What you don't know probably won't kill you in your lifetime. So it's all good little buddy
