As I've mentioned before, there is sound in the NW and NE corners that they used only once and apparently it was too loud and they gave in to complaints and turned them off.

he's an insensitive prick, that's how he can play corinne like that.  what a fool.  i lost all respect for nick after last night's rose ceremony.
i still don't think he and celine dion have anything in common other than he wants to give her his long bone.  raven has come a long way, she's my dark horse.

This is exactly how I feel.

Also I think Rachel is going to quit.

going this saturday for 7 nights at the boardwalk in a 1 bedroom suite. 3 year old on the living room pullout couch, infant in the closet in a crib. kinda tight quarters. going to go 2 bedrooms next time we stay in a disney hotel. may and december we're at the swan which is right next door and much roomier. I'll start day drink posting from there in 4 days. prepare your questions.

Today, day 4 of my Disney rage, I was thinking about how the bar scene is at Disney. Does one exist? This conference normally has fantastic parties at night, do I now have to risk my life to go to Orlando for our parties?

Fitz was on BITB today and said that it has been Leavitt all along.  Sean was just Bill's way of throwing jabs at Currie since he did not want to Sean to have the job.

How the eff would fitz know?

The whole stadium sound system is very important because I'm buying season tickets this year.

Me too!  I'm descending the stairs of privilege to sit with my beloved people. The grassroots fans that make this university home to the No. 1 Pre-Game Tradition in the Big XII!

which section?

I'm trying for section 21 or 8. I can't really justify paying more than those for priority seating.

I grew up in 3 and will try to get back there this year if I can get 4 together.

a gE neighbor for me!
As of this morning there weren't four together in any section 2-8, you will have to wait until renewals are done.

Keeping the 80s/90s era warm up music is reason enough for me for a Hocutt/Venables combo.

Also LOL at Clemson being sponsored by something called FATZ.

Didn't Texas interim AD fire Strong?

No, Perrin was there for a year and a half when he fired Chuck. He was bigly pro Strong.

After _FAN posted that I figured out that me being a dick to Spradling is why AJ used to have me blocked on twitter.

I know he isn't that sensitive about it, obvs.

I don't know why else we would have had me blocked and he didn't either, I'm certainly not going to ask if it's because I was a dick to Will and Shannon.

None of those guys are rough ridin' awkward excuse making dorks tho.

What are you talking about? I'm not advocating for oscar, just stating you'd be fine with his idiosyncrasies if he was a winner. Isn't that obvious? Pretty sure Alabama fans love the crap out of Saban, is he likeable?

I hate sounding like I am trashing Snyder but GMAB with acting like not getting along with Snyder is some mark against Currie. Snyder got to do whatever the he'll he wanted for two decades, some times to the detriment to the program and the department. Currie forced Snyder to schedule better, advance the facilities, and to become slightly more media friendly. Snyder has spoken publicly about his resistance to these things. How can any of you be critical of Currie because of his relationship with Snyder? That literally makes no sense at all.

I mean there are like a bunch of scenes to shoot yet

This is a real thing, though.  Like, if he wins another Big XII or goes to the CFP, that just won't be in the documentary?  Will be very confusing to people watching it waiting for the ending.

Not really, my favorite sports doc of all time ends in the team getting heartbroken in the worst conceivable way. They won the world series the next year. Many of the best 30 for 30's don't end with 'ships.

mir and clams insinuating that there are not a ton of talented people in the K-State athletic department tree is annoying.

I mean, how much evidence do we need that K-State produces stud ADs?

What evidence do we have?

I don't know why someone from K-State automatically = Urick/Weiser/Krause.

They don't, I just don't want our search to be limited to these guys. Hocutt actually passes what I think should be our first priority and that's to poach a current P5 AD. It has been pointed out that Hocutt has made more than one questionable hire though.

I have to like our coaches in order to cheer for them.  That's just me tho.

If you liked LHC Bill Snyder 1.0 it was because you learned to. He wasn't a likeable coach, we weren't a likeable program and we liked it that way.

I was an early adopter, but mostly because of my age.  I've loved him since the fall of 1993.  Not sure about the learned to part.  That has nothing to do with how those outside of KSU felt.

Right but he had no likeable traits; he wasn't warm, funny, welcoming, happy, like nothing people find likeable, he just won. So yes, you can cheer for someone you don't like. Bill was CFB's version of Jim Calhoun or Jim Boeheim; an old, intractable, jerk.

Spradling.  People liked him.  His dad was.a.coach.  He coaching at Anthony Prairie View.A&M.

I had to google this and now it makes more sense as to why I played co-ed indoor volleyball and went against him a few times this year.. Hes at Anthony middle school coaching.. Who knew? not me

He doesn't coach there. He's a girls assistant at Manhattan High and runs his own aau program.

oddly enough people itk tell me that his father helps and all he does is yell at the kids...

Not at all surprising

If we're comparing Frank's and oscar's coaching records the only fair metric is to compare their records at Kansas State, given they took over the program in very similar conditions. How does oscar compare here?

Currie is unwilling to cheat.  In the SEC that means UT will be bottom dwellers for the foreseeable future.

Stupid. Cheating is for average coaches.
