  1. I use to go to the Aeros games as a kid. I got to see Gordie Howe play with his sons. It was fun stuff.
  2. ...so smooth. Who doesn't love a fast, long CB?
  3. I think Austin is better. The fan base is there, and this is about the only pro sports league that would not take attention away from UT. Hockey has failed in Houston already.
  4. Bobbers changed their profile photo
  5. Isn't that nuts that those two were playing Houston private school football on the same team? It is extremely rare to see Div 1 talent in the SPC, but Episcopal had two NFL 1st rounders.
  6. I bet Tech was advised that the crazy injunction was going to get overturned which would mean the State of Texas would no longer support them. I was really hoping that Sorsby would play and then all their wins would get vacated. That would have been a more just ending.
  7. So, you decided not to address one point that I made and insult me instead. You come off of somebody who’s not very bright.
  8. You are wrong and that’s OK. The AG’s job is to represent the state in legal matters. Texas Tech is being pressured by the Big 12 to ignore a judge’s ruling. You try ignoring a judge’s ruling in your life and report back here.
  9. omg....that is literally the job description of the State Attorney General. He is defending Texas Tech, a state entity that is abiding by a court order, against the Big 12. The Big 12 is demanding that a state university violate a court order. This has nothing to do with being a Democrat or a Republican or a Longhorn or Red Raider. This has everything to do with the (in my view) terrible ruling by the judge. Paxton is simply doing his job, but apparently most here are too biased to see the obvious.
  10. That is absolutely untrue. Paxton is doing his job by advocating for a state entity that is directly affected by this scandal. Drummond is advocating for a state entity that is indirectly affected.
  11. No, you don't understand. Paxton is literally doing his job by representing a state university. Burnt orange glasses are good for Saturdays in the Fall, but for other days I prefer the truth.
  12. Texas Tech is a state school. The Attorney General is protecting a state entity. I can tell a lot of you don't like Paxton, and none of you like Texas Tech, but the truth still matters. A judge made his ruling in favor of a state entity. The AG is protecting the interests of the state entity. I personally think the Judge's ruling is insane, but that is not the point here. The NCAA has appealed. I think they will win in court making Paxton's letter a moot point. No matter what happens, Texas Tech has turned this into a PR nigthmare and they have tarnished their reputation for a generation.
  13. I did not realize that Paxton is doing his job. The Attorney General is representing Texas Tech, which is a state university . Paxton would do the same thing for the University of Texas if the same thing were happening to the UT quarterback.
  14. Nothing surprises me anymore. Most of DC is compromised by money, so Austin should be no different. Thank goodness for the internet and citizen journalists- this whole affair would have been swept under the rug pre-internet.
  15. I am not sure I can remember a school making a decision that blew up so quickly and negatively like this. Crazy.
  16. The rumor mill online has several Big12 teams planning to boycott Texas Tech. This debacle is spectacularly bad for the Lubbock billionaire. What a mess.
