Activities to Pursue During the Dead Zone

And so we have officially entered the “Dead Zone” of the sports year.  Spring football ended a couple of weeks back for the only program we care about.  College basketball ended for our guys on the same day, after one of the most successful seasons a Longhorn roundball team has experienced.  The baseball team is […]

General Sherman: Dave South Shall Rise Again

Yes, I know William Sherman didn’t say that. But his wikipedia page failed to give me any other ideas for a headline, and anytime you can remind me of Dave South it brings a warm, albeit confused, smile to my face.

Donald Sloan got fouled

Tough way to lose a game.

Aggies select basketball rival

And it’s not Texas Tech. It’s…
…buffering…
…buffering…
Baylor!

‘We’re talking about Baylor.’
Last night’s game in Waco cemented the rivalry. And with all the shenanigans that occurred, how could it not?
Aggie Joseph Jones knocks Baylor player Tweety Carter to the floor with a pick with 1:53 left. Baylor’s Mamadou Diene gets whistled for a technical for yelling at the […]

A Series of Tubes for March 5, 2008

AeroPorcus requesting air clearance over Waco: A big basketball game between […]

Aggies Drop Knowledge

I am…pleased. So very pleased.
I remember when Eric B and Rakim first worked Dixie Chicken into one of their rhymes. They took the L Train from the Bronx to get there though.
When the chubby white lawyer breaks it down at the classroom podium, I get goosebumps. I too […]

Arkansas Just Remembered It Left It’s Iron On

They’ve backed out of our 2009 return trip to Fayettville, because they don’t want to play both Texas and Texas A&M in the same season.

Texas routs the Aggies. The Grades

Shooting the basketball covers a lot of ills and makes up for all kinds of deficiencies. The game of basketball becomes a simple, simple game when you can ring the bell at a high rate of success. We saw that last night when the number 7 Texas Longhorns delivered a knockout blow by […]

Net Flix Picks

Here are a four movies that you may have missed out on that you should add to your Netflix queue. You’ll thank me unless your tastes run primarily to Armageddon or Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever. If there’s one common thread to be found in the four varied movies below, it’s that each respects the […]

Cruel To Be Kines

Former Alabama defensive coordinator Joe Kines was in College Station yesterday according to the Houston Chronicle. Why? To interview for the A&M DC position. Duh.
