smooth, Jackal...smooth as butter. i would've been like "yeah...i fucked your mom."

you know, Kelly, i didn't know about alt+tab till last year. and i've been living with CS/CE majors since i was a freshman.

Whenever I get to work, I always cut through the library to get to my office. As I was cutting through today, the whole staff was in there celebrating someone's birthday. Anyway, there is this prick who works with me, who went to UT for undergrad. So as I walk in, he goes,

"Oh hey...we could have used you here earlier, I had a question about something having to do with farm animals, and you, of course, went to A&M".

Oh, the many, many possible retorts that fluttered through my mind. How badly should I embarrass this jerkoff in front of everyone, including the boss? Should I be harsh? Should I be forgiving? Should I be an asshole?

"Well, I told you once and I'll tell you again. I may have gone to A&M, but I don't have all the answers when it comes to your love life".

ZING. Being an asshole is fun.

It's at the point now where computers are so dumbass-friendly that they actually have codes on the keys to show you how to use different keyboard commands--Alt+Tab, copy, paste, etc.

"alright...now quote people is much easier."

. . . and typing too. j/k

Well Kelly It appears you paid attention and learned that. Fat Tire is still working on Ctrl+Alt+Del

Or you could just use the keyboard commands for copying and pasting...

Kejaun, you know the dude and his kid who ran out and attacked the first base coach last week at the Chicago-KC game? They are smarter than you.

"There, you can right click on the messageboard now. "

alright...now quote people is much easier.

I'm not sold on Miami's invincibility. I don't think we'd win, but "Miami would fucking smoke UT" is an overstatement.

Ashley - lot's of people said we'd be screwed if Richard Walton ever got hurt, cause who in the hell is that kid on the sidelines warming up? Didn't work out that way, did it? Chance Mock was the #2 player in the state of Texas in '99. He won the backup job outright this season, beating out Matt Nordgren, who was likewise one of the top prospects in the state in '00. I'm pretty sure he's got the playbook memorized, and I doubt he plans to lie down for Vincent Young next year.

And just so we're clear - Beau Trahan will see time at QB this year before Vincent Young does.

Texas and Miami are the only top teams who have won all three (or four) of their games convincingly this year. OU struggled with Bama at home, Fla, Tenn, CU and NU have lost, and ND is running seriously low on the luck of the Irish. Give me Texas and the odds, and a shot in Tempe. I'll take your bet right now. Dammit, I love college football.

And I'm going to keep saying "right now" because right now, I am brain-dead "right now".

I'm sorry to be so blunt right now, but Miami would fucking smoke UT right now.

It will be a long time before you can say that.

Josh, I understand what you're saying about Mock, and I agree with you to an extent, but I think if anything happens to Simms, we're screwed any way you slice it. I don't know that any amount of reps could help him out. He seems rather inept, and it's my guess that if Simms did happen to go down, God forbid, we'd use Mock for all of one series before we pulled Young's redshirt.

As for Miami, the Canes have had their moments as much as any other team, including the Horns. When they play crappy teams like Temple or middle-of-the-road teams like BC, they do what they have to do to get by. But the thing about Miami is that when they play a good team, they are phenomenal. And I am looking forward to the day I can say that about Texas.

There, you can right click on the messageboard now.

Wow, check out where A&M is ranked at now.

chasing cows in a trailor park....wow...did the deputies have mullets, too?

damnit, this anti-right-click is annoying.

Call Fox Sports because I'm thinking Lisa Guerro has some competition. Not only has Ashley proved a woman can know football, but she puts most guys including myself to shame.

Damn, Ashley, you were doing so well, and then this little nugget slipped by the filters.

[quote]As for Mock, geez, where do I start? I don't even think this guy has the playbook memorized. If he had been playing any longer than he did, Houston might have made a game out of it. Everybody knows Mock is gonna be a career backup, so giving him any more than 2 or 3 reps of mop-up duty is really not necessary. Next year is all about Vincent Young. This is Simms's year, for heaven's sake, let him do his job. [/quote].

What happens if Simms goes down? Then we have a true freshman, a sophomore, and a redshirt sophomore with a total of about 20 snaps backing him up. It's always good to get your backups into the game for as many snaps as possible, because a player can be hurt at any time, even while just running a simple flag pattern, no contact involved. Simms had done his job. Playing Mock accomplishes two things - first, it takes care of the point mentioned above, just in case he's ever NEEDED. Secondly, it gets Simms the hell out of harms way.

As for Miami. Did you happen to see the first half of the Temple game last week? Miami didn't exactly look like a juggernaut. They didn't exactly pulverize BC this week, either. It was 17-6 at the end of the 3rd quarter. Miami is the unchallanged #1 right now, and no one can argue with it. But this whole "Miami and 120 other teams" crap is bullshit.

And just to be clear, I'm also damn impressed with your knowledge of football.

Too....many....jokes....

I know I don't come here much, but I have a good story. I now live in a trailor off of Rock Prairie. "2 trailor park girls go 'round the outside." Well my room mate and I were outside having a drink smoking a cig... My room mate looks over and says there is some random horse. Then she sees the head and realizes that its a cow. So I just spent 4 hours chasing 3 heifers (cows) through the trailor park with 5 deputies and some not so well educated people. They were too concerned on who the cattle belonged to rather than to get them out of the street. Imagine sitting on your front porch and seeing some random farm animal stroll through your yard.
Just a question to all you people in Austin, what is 7th street like? We were going to go to Austin the other night, but 6th street was closed it was soo late, so Matt suggested that we go to 7th street. Ya, we weren't drunk at McDonalds at 3 am.

Nah, it was that "Kejuan Jones" person that impersonated you. Then he replied to himself. He must not have much else to do.

By the way, this is the real Tyler Durden, and I didn't write that last comment about A&M sucking. Time to register this name so Pace doesn't go around impersonating me.

I think I hate the wrecking crew because of that gay ass name. That's really the only reason. Didn't Carolina and Jacksonville both make it to the playoffs their first season? Maybe that was their second seasons. Anyway, that's all. Tech WILL beat A&M.

K, I have a pro-football question...

How many expansion teams have made it to the playoffs in their first season?

...and if that is a laughable question, then....

How many expansion teams have had a winning season in their first season?

I was just curious, and I thought someone on here might know.

Merci beaucoup! :)

If the Wrecking Crew is such crap, then why are they the second-ranked defense and how did they hold Suggs and Jones to a combined 99 yards?
