A place where 5 star players go to punch their ticket to the league.... A place where players are happy with winning a few games but care more about their draft status than winning the big one... A place where they can be stars on and off the field... :offended:

Should I just go ahead and punch her? :miserable:

Players would be foolish to not think about a future lucrative pro career... but they would be even more foolish to not think that being a winner and being a good player both help a player's draft stock.

That said... ask your Poke friend how well their recruiting is going after their dream season... and express your extreme condolences on their most recent defection to a real football school.

lol! good one! I'm not that great of a debater...I asked her how many 5 star players they had... she said that her 2 star RB's ran all over my 5 star defense...Never in my life have I thought about choking a girl... until then... haha!

1. We don't have tons of guys drafted all the time
2. We do not have a ton of 5 star guys
3. We do not shoot people or deal drugs, and those that do are kicked off the team
4. **** you, poke
5. Your average poke wouldn't know a talented kid ready to bolt for the NFL if they stole their sheep out from under them mid-coitus
6. Just because our players know how to use the internets does not make them showboats.
7. Being a showboat does not mean you don't care
8. Go EABOD, poke

Stupid. This year's Poke team was simply hungrier and slightly more talented. They have just as many problems as anyone else.
Does becoming the U mean having major injuries to key positions? Because that's the real story here.
Enjoy it while it lasts pokes.

Good one...and one whose last best receiver couldn't wait to get the NFL benefits and got suspended 10 games his last year.

They kicked OU's arse this year and deserve to get their digs in. Been a long time coming. Just laugh it off and tell them they only have about 355 days left.

So, 1 single year removed from going 3-0 down the stretch, which included 2 road wins (1 against a higher ranked OSU team), AND beating Nebraska after being down by 17 points...we are the new U.

1 season does not a pattern make.

Ya but when your team only wins about 18% of the time in a "rivalry" you have to get your shots in quickly.

Any Cowboy fans who already have the 'big head' should be ignored.

Temporary insanity.

Rational, thoughtful OSU fans (yes, there are at least a FEW) know that OU was, is, and will be a premier program.

Fact.

To rebut this witness, ask her to explain the actions of:

And if she has followed football long enough:

Hart Lee Dykes

And if she needs another one:

Dexter Manley

Hart Lee Dykes was an awesome player. I wish he had come to OU.

One year does not erase 106 bad ones. Especially one that does not include a Title Game appearance. But congrats to the pokes for being semi-relevant for the first time, well ever.

Dez is self-explanatory, and frankly more than a bit odd.

Hart Lee was a massive rules infraction that resulted in MASSIVE penalties to the program in the 1980s.

For you younger viewers, Dexter graduated from my alma mater, but later confessed that he never LEARNED HOW TO READ. Niiiice. :very_drunk:

Every school has a few shining moments. Those are some doozies, there.

Ask her how it feels to be playing in the BCS title game. Then, laugh at her and remind her that in their best season ever, they still couldn't play for the Crystal Ball.

In the 11 years since I graduated high school, OU has played in 8 BCS games to OSU's 1.

I hope they collapse like Tejas next year. That would be funny chit.

Ever watch Dez Bryant play for about 15 min.? Looks like he came straight out of the U. Blackmon appears to be from the same mold. Look out, we may get an "I'm 40, I'm a man" for that one.

They are all kind of coming out of the woodwork in the Tulsa area, with their Poke flags in front of their houses, their Poke car flags on their cars, their Poke car stickers on their back windshields, their bright orange attire that can double as professional work appearance attire somehow.

It kind of reminds me of hearing about how the ice storm caused people you never knew existed in Tulsa to come out to public areas in order to survive (no power, no heat, roads impassable). Churches and community centers were filled with the scariest people on earth... you knew they existed, you just didn't know they existed in such large quantities in your area. Think "Occupy" movement, where all of the homeless are tenting next to the actual protesters because they can get away with it. Did our city really have this many homeless people hiding out?

Tulsa has many many orange people. Alas, I have to pretend to be one here at SF.com till the Insight Bowl. Can we please hurry up and beat Iowa...

There is an outspoken, vocal anti-whataeverteamyoucheerfor that I am familiar with that absolutely gives anyone who declare allegiance to any team hell after a loss, coaching move, bad player decision, you name it.

The best thing you can do is not stoop to that level. Just don't talk to them. Avoid eye contact, wear sunglasses and an iPod so they have no idea if they're making eye contact or you can listen to them or not, you name it, just avoid em.

I was watching a football game with my 7 year old nephew recently. He just started on a little league team kinda cool... But while the game was on one of the female sideline reporters came on the screen and was talking about some sort of BS. He looks me dead in the eye and asks "What is she doing talking about football? She's a girl" kinda sums the whole thing up for me.
