More Texas Crying–Happy Weekend.

Posted by Adam Butler on January 8, 2010

Own it, Texas. You lost. Stop crying.

Posted by Adam Butler on January 8, 2010

The Hogs will have 9 starters back on an offense that was in the Top 15 nationally in '09.

I dig it.  We can make some hay from this kind of a jumping off point.

Pete Carroll is a Hypocrite’s Hypocrite VI

Posted by Adam Butler on January 8, 2010

Reports suggest the USC Head Coach is being courted by the Seattle Seaaawks (not like a married, aging football coach courting a grad student…like an NFL team looking for a coach that is trying to get out of town ahead of the posse)

Interesting.  Especially since (on 12/29/09) I called that bail out, brutha!

I look for Carroll to pull a John Calipari and get out of town while the gettin’ is still relatively good, and just before his program is hamstrung with the NCAA’s dreaded “lack of institutional control” label.

Oh, and it looks like he has taught his players well, including NCAA target and alleged driver of his “girlfriend’s” SUV, paid for by United States Chinese Marketing, errrrrrrrrrrr USC Marketing, Joe McKnight, who also appears headed to the NFL.

Wanna know why EVERYONE wanted Colt McCoy

Posted by Adam Butler on January 8, 2010

to come back into the game last night?  Here’s why. Texas was a built-in excuse, and it’s playing it for all it’s worth.

“I’d have given anything to have been out there because I know it would have been different,” McCoy said.

Texas coach Mack Brown defined how different.

“It wouldn’t even have been close,” he said in an unguarded moment outside the locker room.
