[badger]

I hope that the announcement isn't that nike's making us wear black uniforms for a game, or even gray uniforms or something weird. it was weird enough with the tech game last year, and aside from the gloves, wasn't really fond of how the new look turned out.

[SoonerDood]

If it's another website redesign, I'm going to be very upset.

[goingoneight]

Stoops is set to announce the starting kicker along with the dismissal of the horsepigs.

[Collier11]

This is unreal, I cant believe something so cool right before the season

[Crucifax Autumn]

Stoops is set to announce the starting kicker along with the dismissal of the horsepigs.

Hell, maybe one of the horsepigs IS the starting kicker.

[sooner59]

This is unreal, I cant believe something so cool right before the season

I was pumped for Saturday before, but now I can't even think about Saturday. This is awesome! What a great start to what is sure to be a magical season.

[GKeeper316]

[SanDiegoSoonerGal]

How come I don't get to be a secret squirrel?

[gaylordfan1]

Who is announcing this "said" announcement?

[olevetonahill]

[Breadburner]

Cheerleaders are going panty-less....It's a first for a D-1 school......

[KantoSooner]

Well, it's close enough now that I can reveal what my sources have uncovered.

Our O line worries are over!
The Governor of American Samoa has announced that henceforth all young men there will be forbidden to play rugby and will be excused from their rite of passage (killing a shark with their bare hands) if and only if they try out for OU Football.
Unrestricted flow of Giant Angry Polynesians (GAPs) folks. Don't get better than that.

Oh, and I'm all for the pole dancing in the North end zone thing. So long as they point one towards Sec. 23 we'll be good.

[OUmillenium]

Announcement is in...






Biker Fox will be the 2010 major for the Pride and lead them on the field on his magic carpet bike and do the front flip into the south endzone.

[Crucifax Autumn]

I'm on the edge of my seat!

[instigator]

Bob Stoops is taking his talents to South Beach??

[KantoSooner]

http://www.wwe.com/content/media/images/Superstars/bio/4903506

That was exactly what I had in mind.
Mani, and his brother Tuapo will be trying out for the guard positions (L and R) next spring.

[Oldnslo]

The cat's out of the bag:

I still have a year of eligibility left.

And I'm now the starting kicker!

[SoonerPr8r]

What time is the presser going to be on the SA? So that I can schedule my lunch accordingly.

[olevetonahill]

Pay tention

[ccmike9]

[Crucifax Autumn]

Says you!

[olevetonahill]

What ever you say bro .
Want me to send it to you in a Peem ?;)

[Crucifax Autumn]

It would be awesome if they just announced that they are gonna make the announcement tomorrow.

[ccmike9]

Yeah, maybe I'm in on it, too. did you think about that?

[texaspokieokie]

i hope they're going to anounce that i get the time back that i wasted reading this thread.

[beer4me]

OU is getting 2 Amish transfers from the Intercourse PA area and they play like the Hanson Brothers.

[Crucifax Autumn]

i hope they're going to anounce that i get the time back that i wasted reading this thread.

Not unless I get the 2 hours back I spent re-reading SicEm's "I met a girl" thread yesterday. :D

[OUMonster]

I have a feeling we're going to be disappointed by the announcement just because of the buildup.

[texaspokieokie]

fair enuf !!

[texaspokieokie]

i was replying to CA.

[Mississippi Sooner]

OU is getting 2 Amish transfers from the Intercourse PA area and they play like the Hanson Brothers.

Puttin' on the foil, coach!

[soonervegas]

This joke was kind of funny the 1st ten times

[olevetonahill]

I have a feeling we're going to be disappointed by the announcement just because of the buildup.

Like i said bro . It aint Earth shaking , But its pretty cool anyway :cool:

[Dan Thompson]

There will be more cold drinks allowed in the stadium.

[TMcGee86]

Stoops has decided to turn injuries off this year.

Also, he boosted Landry up to a 99 on everything. Including stache growth.

Well done.

[btk108]

40 mins and counting......I heard a private jet just landed at Westheimer.

[Mississippi Sooner]

They're bringin' back the Wishbone. Woooooooo!!!

[StoopTroup]

I heard they are gonna sell Vince Young Sausages at the RRSO.

[badger]

I heard they are gonna sell Vince Young Sausages at the RRSO.

And H2Orange. It's shaped like the Texas tower, you know.

[btk108]

man....I'm squirming now it's getting so close

[TheHumanAlphabet]

They're bringin' back the Wishbone. Woooooooo!!!

Now this would be a surprise!

[Soonerntxs]

Is this announcment going to be on radio? (Dallas Area Stations)

[OK2U]

Whatever, there's a whole bunch of football in a few days. I'm taking my enthusiasm elsewhere.

[Mad Dog Madsen]

I just heard this "secret." Eh, it's ok I guess...

[btk108]

I just heard this "secret." Eh, it's ok I guess...

Dont let it out of the bag....

[badger]

I just heard this "secret." Eh, it's ok I guess...

The game will be televised for free instead of PPV! yay, i save 30 bucks. i can spend it on more damn flu medicine :mad:

[texaspokieokie]

yep, i want my time back.

[setem]

Is this the real news?

[badger]

Everyone from the 2009 season gets a year of eligibility back because last year really didn't happen.

[badger]

I think I found the secret out.

I promise I am not rick rolling you. Click and read and agree that this is the secret.

Hint: It involves a certain announcer.

[Crucifax Autumn]

Gonna be some happy people here.

[soonerborn30]

I vote for Jim Ross

[badger]

I vote for Jim Ross

me too, but they might be looking for someone younger that doesn't have health issues. BBS had both knees and both hips, whereas JR recently had surgery too I think.

[Crucifax Autumn]

I vote for anyone who knows the players' names and can see the yard markers and lines.

[oudavid1]

I made a new thread, enjoy

Ding Ding Ding
Winner . Said it wasnt earth shaking but pretty cool anyway :cool:

[texaspokieokie]

that's no big deal. i don't even care.

[Crucifax Autumn]

And yet you kept checking!

[texaspokieokie]

i kept checking cause i thot it mite be important.

[Oldnslo]

I'm happy. In my ears.

[Mississippi Sooner]

me too, but they might be looking for someone younger that doesn't have health issues. BBS had both knees and both hips, whereas JR recently had surgery too I think.

Plus, that Bell's palsy thing still crops up from time to time. No one would bring much more enthusiasm to the mic, but it's about 20 years too late for ol' JR.

[texaspokieokie]

give it to Merv; with Barry for color.

[Crucifax Autumn]

I'm just glad that maybe next year when the TV announcers suck I can turn down the volume and turn on the radio and enjoy the game more.

[olevetonahill]

give it to Merv; with Barry for color.

Thot you dint care ?

[Sooner02]

Wow, didn't this happen 10 years ago?

[btk108]

please, please! Not Mumblin Merv, I can't understand a word he says.

[Crucifax Autumn]

please, please! Not Mumblin Merv, I can't understand a word he says.

Which I actually prefer to understanding what Bob says! :P

[soonerborn30]

Man, if good 'ole JR could bring the fire to OU football that he brought to a Hell In a Cell match...

Even if it was for only a couple years. Imagine it...Ryan Broyles scores a late, go-ahead TD against UT and then..."RYAN BROYLES!! RYAN BROYLES!!! RYAN BROYLES!! TOUCHDOWN OKLAHOMA!!! THE NORMAN NATIVE PUTS THE SCREWS TO TEXAS!!!"

Sorry, my inner WWF geek is coming out today for some reason.

[ouleaf]

I vote for Jim Ross

I'm sure he would be humbled by the opportunity, and I think he would do a great job, and while his on camera/announcing role with the WWE has decreased quite a bit over the past few years, I think he'd still remain loyal to them.

[CrimsonJim]

I made a new thread, enjoy

Surprise! ;)

[swardboy]

Can we steal Lindsey Nelson from his crypt...something about his voice said "Saturday afternoon and college football."

[fwsooner22]

Thank YOU.....Thank YOU.....Thank YOU

[badger]

Plus, that Bell's palsy thing still crops up from time to time. No one would bring much more enthusiasm to the mic, but it's about 20 years too late for ol' JR.

That's the best part - for radio, Bell's Palsy wouldn't matter. Nobody would see his face, they'd just hear like "By gawd! Demarco! Demarco!" with a touch of "The Hammer just grilled up a slobberknocker of a hit!"

We'll need to nickname a player "Stone Cold" so he pull off the "by gawd" a little bit more naturally, or designate a new player every year as "stone cold." :D

[btk108]

don't need a "Stone Cold", we have "The Hammer"

[btk108]

which is a site better than having "The Clapp", btw:D

[badger]

Until each player's character/gimmick is set, the following lines will be used instead:

"Trained in martial arts."

"Best technical wrestler... um, I mean football player."

Now... throw in some lines about suplexes, avoid the drop kicks and boom! ...goes the dynamite :D

[Mississippi Sooner]

"Folks, I'm tellin' you that tonight's game with Utah State is gonna be bowling shoe ugly. They are going to beat those Aggies like a government mule!"

[Collier11]

The excitement rules

[stoopified]

Spencer Tillman or Keith Jackson over JR.

[TheHumanAlphabet]

Woo Hoo! Good Announcement. May Bob enjoy retirement and play lots of golf in good health. Whoever just needs to be good and have a clear voice. Oh and keep Merv as color. He is great.

[StoopTroup]

Barry Sanders Dad is gonna be at the game Saturday.

[badger]

Barry Sanders Dad is gonna be at the game Saturday.

Is he bringing his grandson? Not that we aren't already set at running back and are as desperate for his services as the Pokes, but just curious :D

[StoopTroup]

I think Shirley Sanders is coming too.

[soonerborn30]

Spencer Tillman or Keith Jackson over JR.

Actually, Spencer Tillman isn't a bad idea.

[goingoneight]

Barry "Not Jr." as they're calling him, could open up his eyes and see the light just as easily as any player in the country when it comes to where he wants to go. Hell, Tress Way said he grew up all pro-aggy (anti-OU), and look where he's at. AD wore whorn gear all his life until his senior year. Not saying we're in the mix, but I don't see him so 100% orange and black yet as the local media sees it.

[Mad Dog Madsen]

I'm sure he would be humbled by the opportunity, and I think he would do a great job, and while his on camera/announcing role with the WWE has decreased quite a bit over the past few years, I think he'd still remain loyal to them.

I doubt that... If he was givin the opportunity I think he would jump on it in a heartbeat. Good Ol' JR is a HUGE OU fan...


http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2104/2169832461_bf58afbfd7.jpg

[Sooner04]

I wonder how JR gets on the field. Is it just because he's famous? Looked him up in the old Sooner Club section and he doesn't donate all that much.

[Mississippi Sooner]

I think fame and the fact that's mentioned the Sooners so often on the air has a lot to do with it.

Funny that back in WCW's dying days, when they hired Vince Russo and Ed Farrara away from WWF, Ed was doing a parody of JR and called himself Oklahoma. For better or worse, a lot of people across the country identify Jim Ross with OU.

[soonerborn30]

The free pub he gives them, or used to give them, on the WWE broadcasts was probably enough. I mean, his entrance music is Boomer Sooner for God's sake.

Sorry, MS. I think we were posting at the same time. :O

[TXBOOMER]

BFD!

[SbOrOiNaEnR]

We'll need to nickname a player "Stone Cold" so he pull off the "by gawd" a little bit more naturally, or designate a new player every year as "stone cold." :D

Done.

Heh...available on videocassette, Laserdisc, and 8mm!

Christ I'm getting old.

[Mississippi Sooner]

Heh...available on videocassette, Laserdisc, and 8mm!

Christ I'm getting old.

I hear ya. I still have a working tv in the spare bedroom that has a Laserdisc option on the menu.

[ouflak]

I may be able to start doing the play-by-play again in the game threads! I really enjoyed doing that, but it just became too much work to translate what Bob was saying into what was actually happening on the field, while still keeping up with the game itself. And the last few years, as painful as it might be for some to admit, he's really kind of gotten worse.

That 2000 national championship season was a gem no doubt, and I always associate with some of my best OU football memories, especially the '12th man' A&M jab on that penalty that cost them a shot at winning the game. Hope he enjoys his retirement.

[Crucifax Autumn]

I hear ya. I still have a working tv in the spare bedroom that has a Laserdisc option on the menu.

Up until 2 years ago when we just chose to leave it behind we had a working RCA console television...and it was a rather old one at that! lol

It was kinda cool since it made a great stand for a second TV, which came in handy during football season.

Now I'm all high class and sh*t and have 2 side by side plus a dual monitor setup so I can actually watch 4 games at once. :D
