Whoopi Goldberg's Lips

Both of the freshmen are in the transfer portal now. Doesn't mean either will transfer, but Rising is one play from being the guy next year. Why would he transfer?? Dumb...I can understand Thompson but not Rising.

What position is he supposed to play in college?  He’s a freak athlete  

He's slated for slot receiver, but after today we might have our second RB of the class. Good Lord that was a ridiculous display...Percy Harvin 2.0.

Oh and our other slot receiver in this class just so happens to be the Gatorade National POY.

He's just poking fun re: the far right column. Guess we need to fire up the "Where's Candi Now?" spreadsheet.

Yeah that's not good, even hypothetically speaking. Maybe he'll get us some JUCOs that are ready.

But what if, hypothetically speaking, the PAC is awesome next year? Or if Notre Dame hypothetically kicks Clemson's ass? Maybe Urban doesn't leave OSU after his hypothetical heart attack? I mean, hypothetically speaking, Ehlinger could have a Heisman year and we could be there. What would happen if bammers plane hypothetically crashed? 

Hypothetically, I think I've covered all our bases?

Can he help me pick out the correct LOL! doll for my daughter's Christmas?

Sterlin Gilbert to McNeese as HC...

Sorry to pee in your pinot buddy, but NOTHING in Austin Texas makes me jealous, NOTHING. 

You do seem like the type that would hate watching fine wimminz romancing each other. 

Does that help or hurt UT??

I don't see us getting pantsed in this one. We obviously tend to play up or down to the level of our competition. It wouldn't surprise me if they beat us by less than 7, and it would only be mildly surprising to see us win.

Ok, this is where I draw the line... UFOs are real, man!!

My wife coordinated an event for him about 15 years ago in River Oaks. She's got a picture of them on her desk at work. While she didn't agree with his politics, she was in awe of his presence and charisma. One of the greatest American heroes. He gave so much for our country.

And no, he didn't grope her during the photo op.

Rest easy, Mr. President.

I just wrote this letter and emailed to [email protected]:

 

To whom it may concern,

 

Hello.  My name is (name) and I would like to share a serious concern of mine regarding the current BCS playoff format.  For years I held issue with the ways in which National Champions were decided in NCAA FBS football.  It never sat well with me that the two teams that were picked to compete for the title were based solely on the BCS ranking system.  While I agree with the way that the rankings are chosen (record, strength of schedule, etc..) I never believed that having one game between the two top-ranked teams could truly decide a champion.  When the decision was made to move to a playoff format I was beyond thrilled.  Thrilled until I realized that it was exactly the same way as previously done, except for the adding of the 3rd and 4th ranked teams according to BCS rankings.  If history tells us anything it is that rankings do not always mean anything.  This is evident in the fact that your own rankings change weekly.  Every single week during the season ranked teams are beaten by unranked teams, and high ranked teams are beaten by lower ranked teams.  This is not only evident in this regard but also in every single sport that is or has ever been played.  There are so many variables that can determine or affect the outcome of a football game (or any sport).  I am urging whoever will read this to please consider the following:

 

In literally every single sport in the history of sports, there are leagues/conferences that are used to determine seeding in a post-season tournament.  To decide a post-season champion.  While I know that FBS football is slightly different than most other NCAA sports, I believe that a similar format can be used to determine a National Champion.  It's obvious that the competition level in certain conferences is stronger than other conferences from year to year but that doesn't change the fact that a conference champion does at least deserve a shot to play for some kind of post-season championship.  I'm not talking about bowl games.  I'm also not referring to FCS schools.  I'm suggesting that the conference champion of each of the Power 5 conferences not only deserves to be in a National Championship playoff but need to be in order to truly know who the team will be that should represent NCAA football as the best team in the country.  Every single year there has been a very legitimate argument for at least one team that has been left out of the playoff, as well as a very legitimate argument why a team in the playoff shouldn't have been.  What I'm suggesting would not only eliminate that issue but make for more exciting post-season as well as pre-season FBS football.  Let me explain.  By simply adding 4 more teams to the playoff and one more round of the playoff you could include each of the FBS conference champions as well as 3 other highly ranked teams that didn't win their conference.  That's not only fair, but it's the way that every sport that has ever been played decides a champion.  From High School all the way up to Professional in both men and women's sports.  I've never understood why FBS football has to be the only one who doesn't follow this format.  Now.. The BCS ranking system could be used to determine seed matchups for the National Tournament.  This year the tournament would be as followed:

 

1 Alabama (SEC champ) vs.
8 Washington (Pac12 champ) (take the place of an at-large bid since they won the Pac12)

 

4 Oklahoma (Big12 champ) vs.

5 Georgia (at-large)

 

2 Clemson (ACC champ) vs.

7 Michigan (at large)

 

3 Notre Dame (at-large) vs.

6 Ohio State (Big10 champ)

 

This ^ is the format that is literally used with every sport to have ever been played that decides a champion.  FBS football should be no different.  Here is the reason that pre-season games would be better and possibly more of a money maker for each of the schools.  I played 4 years of college basketball and happen to know for a fact that preseason games are supposed to be used as a preparation for actual conference games.  By including the conference champion into the post-season tournament (no matter the rank or record) you will eliminate the fear of a team getting a loss.  You know as well as I do that teams shy away from playing tough games in the preseason because they know that overall record can have an effect on their post-season chances.  This would not only bring FBS football up to par with the rest of the sports world but would also bring in the power matchups before conference play that all schools and fans aspire to see.  

 

I thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter.  I am very hopeful to see the continued and much-needed change in D1 football... so as to be done a similar way as D1 basketball, D1 baseball, D1 softball, D1 soccer, D1 volleyball, and every other champion that has ever been decided. 

Inevitably, their response will be...

Dawg fans still use the "what time is it in Texas? 10 to 9" joke. Time to shut them up and get some payback.

That's a huge opportunity for Texas. Don't see them winning that have, but man talk about catapult the program

It's a win-win for us. But we're probably gonna get our turds pushed in.

Hmmm.  A punch to the gut or a punch to the jewels.  I will figure out which is the jewels and get back to you.  

I would think a higher payout, more prestige, and a much tougher opponent would benefit us during NSD2 as well. Yeah, UGA will probably curb stomp us but that doesn't matter to me as much as the benefit of us being in a NY 6 game again. We might get us a good un because of it.

We need ou to get in so we can get the Sugar Bowl. If tOSU jumps ou, we're gonna get stuck with the Alamo Bowl.

I just want to say how proud I am of this team and how we made a decent year out of it. Did not start off on the right foot, but we battled and showed we're the most physical team in the Big 12. It's hard to beat a team twice in a year, especially one that is more talented than you. Let's finish the season 1-0 then hit there weight room in the spring. Big things coming our way over the next few years.

Well in fairness, he did spell tonsil correctly so that's an improvement right there.

True. But I almost won the lottery the other day. Just a few numbers off... I'm at work today. Lol.

I do think they will be in better shape moving forward though.

I almost Ace'd a par 3 at Wildwood the other day. Alas, I ended up with a 5 on that hole. 

Am I doing this right?
