will muschamp and major applewhite

abcdmetrius — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 05:12:41 -0000

has anyone given thought to how much if any having these two on our staff plays in our favor vs. alabama

having two former saban staffers most certainly helps us right?

muschamp was around saban for five years i believe

and then the year after he leaves his staff he goes to auburn and coaches against a bama team that year (granted they weren't good, but they lost)

meanwhile major was the o.c. for saban, even though it was only one year

these two things have to help us for this matchup right?

a bit of sober rambling

man it's been a good day to watch college football, i've been treated since the games started this morning

jawesome 3.0 i must add

can't wait for next week ... i hope we drive a hole into the hopes and dreams of all shucks and stalks ... that's how i feel about that

last thursday wasn't expected, but jeez louise we may be in trouble next year against the aggie offense

can you imagine if mike leach had a mobile running threat to run his offense ...it's hard to believe that he doesn't ... but if he did it would look something like jerrod johnson and five recievers spread out

and to me that looked like sheer terror

back to the horns, man can you imagine if any other team in the country had been winning this percentage of games in the last few years

i mean aside from last second taco heroics .... ouch nevermind ... i just looked at the 2007 record again

man i sure as heck hope coach boom doesn't go anywhere because the two previous years were the sucks as far as our d went

rambling complete ... hook em ... see you next saturday

ps ... it's 11:19 and ou still sucks

where is the depth chart?

abcdmetrius — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 13:51:37 -0000

that's what i really want to know

where the hey the depth chart is

don't these people know that i'm a longhorns junkie and need my fix

give me a depth chart

tell me about practice, who's dinged up, who's not

who fell on their face

what tight end did we lose this week

will number 71, the guy with the next roll thingy please block someone

i'm going crazy over here

this is how i feel when bcs rankings take forever

when i can't read stewart mandels mailbag

i'm comic book fan boy and my captain marvel hasn't come in this week

i'm that guy right now

and i'm already backing out of halloween plans just to watch the game

can't a man just get a depth chart

and/or a table dance?

we lost at tech

abcdmetrius — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 15:17:27 -0000

on a last second pass, which could've never happened, had there not been a dropped INT the second before, OR we had better clock management

on the road, not having the best game, we showed guts, fought back in a game we had no business being in from the first half.

and the ball just didn't go our way, it happens. that's part of college football and in a lot of ways that's part of life.

and our team kept their heads up, came home after a GRUELING stretch of games, and took on a baylor team that's not the best of teams in the big 12

but they gave our QB a pretty good knocking around, they showed a lot of heart, but we won. even though the crowd wasn't in it, even though it was at the ass crack of dawn

a tech team lost the other night, got DOMINATED, on the road, showed no heart, fight, or spirit, and left the field with their heads down.

you think their fans are gonna be up and cheering for baylor? you think their team is going to walk around with this same we can do it attitude that they've had? this same team that looked god awful in many games? i don't think we'll see the team that beat OSU at home.

just some thoughts, ps, at least we're not aggie

i.really.haven't.gone.anywhere

abcdmetrius — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 23:03:59 -0000

you know the crazy guy that types like ee cummings

loves politics

but hates to talk about it on sports message boards or in the sports bar (seriously who does this, or brings up race, if i didn't love my shiner so much i'd smash a bottle)

but anywho i haven't been posting much

not at all

part of this has been the fact that i lost my job, and part of the fact that i mean geez we're doing awesome

i've been actually watching the games rather than posting while during them and i'd probably be too smashed to do it

fun times

lately however, i've seen tons of people come out of the word works, and i just wanted to join in on the jubilation

colt mccoy is leaps and bounds farther than he's ever been

i'm one that never would've guessed it, i still don't like his freshman year, i think he made BOLD moves and had play makers around him that saved him

he never dumped down to the tight ends only to selvin and jamaal, and then last year, those some bold moves didn't pay off

but this year, wooooooooooo, good job sir

i'm still big on fozzy, glad chris o shed some pounds, vondrell this last game ... man he ran like an angry man

sergio i heart

the dbs are impressive

and musCHAMP i lub

this saturday should be a real test and i'm excited to watch how we fare

so i just wanted to drop by and throw up my hook em

and shoot down some of our loud mouthed cocky friends

anyone can lose on any game day. that's why we play the game folks

TJ Ford Traded per ESPN

abcdmetrius — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 00:57:21 -0000

On the eve of the NBA draft, the Toronto Raptors and Indiana Pacers finally agreed to a trade.

Sources told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher that the Pacers and the Raptors have agreed to a deal that, pending physicals, would send Jermaine O'Neal to Toronto in exchange for T.J. Ford, Rasho Nesterovic and the No. 17 pick in Thursday's NBA draft.

Ford's contract makes him a "base-year compensation" player, meaning the trade cannot be completed until July 9.

SOOOOO

what does the do to DJ?

pb i have a request

abcdmetrius — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 15:50:44 -0000

for the site ... i was wondering if you could make hyperlinks open new tabs or windows
i end up clicking on links and navigating away from the site and forgetting where i was or what i was looking at
silly ... i know ... but i'd rather stay on this site and have everything else external
oh and yes this is a lazy request :-\

what's the chance that augustine stays another year?

abcdmetrius — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 02:01:29 -0000

i'm saying ... dj started off great ... but it's been a long way since the start of the basketball season ... and while we like him lots ... has he been what he was? ... his jumper isn't falling like it was ... he hasn't been making the best of decisions ... i know point guards struggle when to get the team involved and when to be the man ... i KNOW that's a hard decision ... but still ... what's the chance that he stays ... he doesn't seem a lock for the wooden award that he once was ... not that that's the most important thing ... but his stock seems to have slipped ... no?

Vince doesn't run the ball anymore?

abcdmetrius — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 00:27:09 -0000

horns fan just checking in ... haven't gotten to catch the titans much at all this year ... but i noticed today that there's little to no scrambling from vince young ... and i can't for the life of my fathom why ... can any of you give me insight into why this is

on breaking records

abcdmetrius — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:38:32 -0000

why do we expect people to be gracious when someone is about to break their records?

why do we expect people to be gracious when someone is about to break their records?
i mean honestly ... people are competitive ... they play to be great and if they set records that means their number one
when someone breaks it they can no longer compete and it's like dang it
of course over time variables change, game numbers, styles, sorry teams
i'm just sitting here and they keep talking about the guy from ucf about to break barry sanders record
and why should barry be nice about it
