Franchione gets $4.4 million buyout from A&M

Hello Friend. I will send you Defensive End if you give me your bank account number and pin security code.

So the VIP Connection cost him $4.1 million in the end. Great venture. Let’s see, subtract off that loss the revenue he received from it…12 x $1200…nevermind. One of the worst business ventures in recent memory.

Or you could say that Franchione just got $4.4M to leave College Station ….. that sounds like a great deal to me.

This has nothing to do with Fran but get a load of who won the award at the banquet for outstanding linebackers:

Rashad Bobino
Scott Derry
Robert Killebrew

I wish I was joking.

“Like anyone is going to help him get skill position players out of Nigeria.”

Fucking brilliant.

“The program also included awards at each position group. On the defensive side of the ball, Brian Orakpo, Aaron Lewis and Lamarr Houston were named the team’s Outstanding Defensive Ends. The Outstanding Linebacker award was shared by Rashad Bobino, Robert Killebrew and Scott Derry. For Bobino and Killebrew, this was the second consecutive year they took the honor.”

OMFG

LMAO, almost every player who ever played won an award, think what this must do to the three players who didn’t win one…

miles, please tell me that this list is something you made up… If not, this sums up what we already knew about Mack. It ain’t about winning, it is about making everyone feel good.

It’s too bad Billy Pittman didn’t win the Roy Williams Leadership Award

You forgot:

The Herve Villechaize award for biggest hearted cornerback, which was awarded to Ryan Palmer

The Admiral James Stockdale award for best contribution by a second-in-command to Dwayne Akina

The Julia Child “Cook me up a missed tackle” award to Robert Killebrew

The Jimmy Hoffa memorial Disappearing Senior award, to Billy Pittman

The Winona Ryder surprising arrest award to Robert Joseph (first offense)

The Richard M. Nixon destruction of evidence award to James Henry

The Dick Dastardly stupid criminal award to Robert Joseph (second offense)

The Mutley award for best accomplice to Andre Jones

I believe there were a few others I’m forgetting – maybe some of you can help…

The Martin Handford award for being nearly impossible to find awarded to Jermichael Finley (He nearly took himself out of the race with his performance against OU)

The “Fuck Lion” Award for Unintelligble Speech Patterns…

Ok, ok nevermind. I’m just beating a dead horse now…

It’s still funny.

The Hindeburg Ground Crew Award goes to the entire UT Coaching Staff.
