Are you ready for some football?

I haven't been watching/caring about this thread much, but there's entirely way too much bickering going on here. Keep it at least somewhat mature and light-hearted or go somewhere else to discuss football.

Getting back to the thread,
^I'm feeling pretty confident in OU again, especially while playing in Norman. I think the K-State loss really forced them to push themselves to do better for the rest of the season. Landry can still make some pretty stupid screw ups here and there, but ND is fairly mediocre this year I think.

Yeah Notre Dames offense is defiantly overrated but there defense is good except the secondary so I'm expecting a lot of passes from Landry

Wait a minute...the kid is well within his rights. Check it out:
Official Rules of Baseball
Rule 3.19 Members of any team, players, coaches, managers, or management are expressly forbidden to cry. There is no crying in baseball. Rule 3.19 Comment: An umpire may, at his own discretion, make an exception for tears welling up in a players eyes if a ball or bat has contacted the player in a sensitive part of his body, such as the groin, providing no audible sobbing has escaped the players lips.

Rule 3.19a Because of the cruel nature of the game at times, a team will incur no penalty for having substitute cryers, providing they be confined to the stadium stands or rooms where they watch the game on television. Rule 3.19a Comment: The Chicago Cubs make liberal use of this rule.

I grew up a disciple of Staubach and Dorsett but I've never hated the Chiefs. Never been a fan but often found myself pulling for them. Thought they had a good, loyal fan base. I feel for those fans. My cowboys are lost in the cloulds and my college team is leaderless wandering through the SEC. Oof.

Chittlins!!! yea baby!! FOOTBALL!!! Too Tall Jones, Tom Landry, Randy White.............

I was hoping Mizzou would get by Syracuse and prove my pre-season prediction of a 6-6 record correct...but it seems that I was a bit optimistic. This week's game against Texas A&M, in College Station, will almost certainly be a loss, to finish at 5-7. No bowl for the Tigers this year.

Chiefs? Move along folks, nothing to see here.

Rams still have a chance at a semi-respectable season, I guess.

Baseball note: Have you see the new jerseys the Cardinals will be wearing for their Saturday home games next season? Really cool looking...they harken back to the jerseys of the 30's.

I'm a fan of Oklahoma State and the Kansas City Chiefs. Rough weekend

KC..??

So how do you OkieDokie St fans feel about Gundy lifting his skirt up to some SEC teams. He done went and cheated and now has to live with it.

His agent done put him in a tough situation after Arkansas slowplayed him and Tenn couldn't afford him. His agent is notorious for floating his clients names out to extort better terms before contracts are up. I know the downfall of Nutt at Arkansas started when Sexton and he pulled that with Nebraska. Nutt stayed but lost halfthe fans right then and there. I can tell a neat story about Mike Anderson having to call Sexton last him to tell to stop the nonsense, he wanted the job not more money from Mizzou cause he was about to screw it up too. It was so funny watching Mizzou folks claim Mike wasn't ever going to leave to come back to Arkansas when many of us knew he had expressed his wanting to for over a year prior. Heck, I know someone he told personally over dinner one night.

Why did Mizzou run Yost. I'm going to miss ragging on his goofy looking self.

I'm still trying figure out our new coach and the fit but I get it on the surface.
