Roper84 reacted to Peppermint Patty in #WRTS
If he don't want to be there, hit the road. Tired of treating these kids like royalty. Make a choice and go there. -

You need to be at full strength for this:

Need the ole gang to be around here for a long time and some of you have some predictions you have to make good on. -

Its going to be a great time for football for the next few weeks so lets all be around to enjoy each and every game - be safe and have fun (you can do both - my children sometimes do not believe this).
Will look forward to continuing the lively discussions in 2015.

Be safe everyone!!
Don't drink and drive. Call someone to pick you up if you are to drunk to get behind the wheel. If you can't make it,just put your keys under the seat and sleep in your car! There will be cops on every corner a DWI is not worth it. -

Roper84 reacted to PhatMack19 in Texas Bowl: Arkansas vs. Texas
59 total yards of offense. 2 total rushing yards with two 5 star running backs in the backfield and a 5 star QB. I don't think I need to comment any further. -

Roper84 reacted to Peppermint Patty in YESSIR!!
Man, I hate cancer! I pray the treatments go well for your dad and your family. It's tough on all parties involved.
This place is a great stress relief. However, I can really tell when things are tough at home because my replies get a little terse.
Hang in there. You're never alone.

"Sounds like Chuckie is doing much better job with less talent"
Did you say that with a straight face - really?????
Texas since 2010 has had the 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 16th ranked recruiting classes - if a player was redshirted they could still be playing - and you state that Charlie has had no talent to field - really - you can't be buying that can you really???

Roper84 reacted to Peppermint Patty in Strong Coaching Pedigree
I have learned that's what you say when a player de-commits. Trying to remember where I heard it first... -
Roper84 got a reaction from Mr. Buddy Garrity in Maroita or Manziel?
Manziel is a loose cannon......but that cat is a crazy competitive.
I'd bet on him.

Roper84 got a reaction from OldTimer in SECond to none, except for the Big 12
Here's my take on your comment:
Texas and OU are fine with the way things worked out this year.
If they were in the same boat, one of them would have made it in(they presume). They don't want the "little private schools" to get any more attention or chances at success. Sips and Sooners are not used to having to compete for THE BEST recruits with BU TCU and ATM. Sorry, the landscape has changed. Maybe only temporarily, but it has changed.
Current conference setup was tailor made for a easy path to National Championship.....just didn't think it would be BU or TCU, so no need to add any new teams because that would just reduce the money for Texas and OU.
Couldn't happen to a nicer set of folks.
Congrats.

My t-shirt fan comment was directed at whoever that was that said they rooted for the team that was winning in Texas. My point was, a real fan goes through the good and the bad. I was there through the Fran years and know how bad it can get.
Btw I believe TxHoops is the only Texas alum that post on this board. There will be more when Texas gets good again, but he is on his own for now. -

I root for the SEC team. Baylor and TCU getting left out actually proves why I should. The SEC champ seems to almost have an automatic bid to the playoff based on their past success while the Big 12 is left out in the cold.
If Bama makes it to the championship game, the bowl revenue that is split amongst the teams is over $82 million. The Big 12 this year is splitting $21 mil. That's not including future TV deals, SEC Network, etc. -

I have 12 tickets for sale. I should make a good lick on them. They come with a hot dog and a drink! Make me an offer! -

WOW!!!! I feel a lot better now that we are disagreeing again - the recent past of us being on the same page totally scared me to death :lol:
