Its so pointless to argue on those boards, lets settle it on the field.


ps: i wanna coach one day, thats where i get that attitude

[Collier11]

texas fans are clueless to the facts, they think that head to head matters in a three way tie and they think that overall series lead matters when talking about the national significance of a program or who has the better program

[rainiersooner]

I didn't realize their game against USC had bigger ratings than our game against USC. I think I'm going to go burn all my OU shirts now.

[silverwheels]

Ugh, ESPN boards are terrible. I'm surprised that 99% of the people who post there even know how to use a computer.

LOL nice! you should post that. i kept reading those horn idiots, but funny how none of them put up any real stats or figures.

[Collier11]

I dont care to argue with idiots who dont have the ability to reason

[Crucifax Autumn]

I'm surprised most of them can figure out how to get food to their mouths to survive.
