« on: October 21, 2007, 12:17:18 am »
..Ok.. I have had a couple...

..but I come in from the office while LSU is kicking off to Auburn and hear the ESPN guys talking about
the player who made the special teams tackle for LSU " signing to play for Houston this Spring..."..in the chaos I couldn't discern the name of the player they were talking about...

....maybe they were saying he was a "possible signee...that didn't..."

.. Chad Jones?...

...last I remember August 17 or some such was a deadline to sign ...and Houston didn't / couldn't sign him..


..who the hell were they talking about?..was anyone watching?


..TZ Gods...inform me, please...

..a new year..a new club...oh..never mind.

I had hear that name a couple of weeks ago but couldn't tell you what was said. I could have sworn that he would have his try at spring training for third? I have had a few too and my memory isn't good even without the beer.
It's all part of the game.....

He was drafted but didn't sign because he was wanting excessive $$$. 

I was really pulling for him to muff a punt to my auburn tigers last night but it wasn't to be. Oh well.

LSU's been a second half team all year.  The question was whether they had enough in the tank to come back in the second half.

On another note, the Auburn lineman who chop blocked Dorsey in the 3rd quarter will be lucky if the SEC doesn't suspend him for the rest of the year.

Fuck Auburn too. Tuberville doesn't deserve to have his name spelled correctly. As for geaux, we'll have to agree to disagree.

Saban has said that he's staying at Alabama.  And if you can't trust what Nick Saban is telling you about where he's going to be coaching, well then....

The rumor is Tuberville.  I'd rather see someone like Charlie Strong, but my level of contribution is not what you'd call significant.

I don't know how Stoops coachs, but Tuberville's Ole Miss teams were the dirtiest I've ever seen.  And his Auburn teams aren't far behind.

You don't have to go back far to find an incredibly cheap shot on McCoy last year in the Aggie game. Then there was the Aggie LBer flying at Marty Akins knee, who was playing half-crippled, in a 70's contest.

Agreed. But are you thinking that DE that sacked McCoy way after the whistle two weeks ago didn't hear the whistle? He didn't get a flag but he certainly earned one. Mack was going nuts on the sideline.

BFD. i think he did not hear it, but they could have thrown the flag. obviously, the refs thought he could not hear it.

Yea, that's what I think. I really don't think he heard whistle. Still, that's a penalty. McCoy was practically at a dead stop.  I also thought it odd that no Longhorn player seemed to even notice.

Which one are you talking about?  The cheap shot on McCoy by Heard after the interception (when Colt had taken off the chin strap) which was flagged, or the shot by Bennett that knocked him out of the game which wasn't flagged?

IMO, the second was within the 2 steps and the refs agreed.  It could have gone either way.

The first.

Only the most idiotic of fans think that wasn't a late hit.  The arguement is/was it a dirty play?  Interception was thrown, Dodge (the linebacker) hit the ground, and Heard hit McCoy within 1.5 seconds. 

I think it was stupid on Heard's part and dirty, but many see it differently.  The refs did flag that one.

he was talking about the OU game, not aTm. i think the second Aggie hit was legal.

Colt himself said it was not dirty.  English is a friend of his.

Doesn't change the fact that it was a penalty.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

Same ref who missed the hit on Harrell in the aTm game.  He's particularly incompetent, even by Big XII standards.
