Back from Sooner Practice. Pictures.

[SoonerJason]

Drove up to Pinnacle High up here in Scottsdale to watch our boys practice.

I'm very very delighted to have the team in my backyard.. Litterly.

Was informed.. It was a closed practice.. arghh..

Well.. My son and I hung around a bit with about 6 other Sooner fans and watch the boys arrive in the buses.

I would say 8 motorcycle police escort, 3 Buses, Seperated by Offense, Defense and Special Teams, Fiesta bowl offical cars and someone from I think from Fire. (was kinda cool)


At first.. We found a spot had some unobstucted views of the field. We thought we were fine, until a constuction crew arrived and said we had to leave the area because they were going to do work on the spot.

They fenced that off. Funny on the timing.

So we left that spot and found where you can still see through a layer or two of fencing.

That was fine for an hour until some knunkle head kid set off the alarm to one of the cars.. That went off for 30 seconds. While that was going off. I'm sure someone from the field looked up and saw some of the fans waving back at them.. (we had a total of like 12 people there at that time)

2 minutes later.. Oklahoma's finest showed up in a golf cart.

They were real nice, but it was time to go.

They said basiclly Bob understands the fans.. But this stuff was top secret..

I dont blame Bob.. College football is a business.. Big business.

There are millions of dollars invested every year into the program. You cant give out your business secrets.

Well.. That's it. Enjoy, sorry didnt take more.

If I were you Iwouldn't go to manclicks either.

Thank you so much. Any glimpse is appreciated. :D

Is this a traveling carnival or a football team?

Don't answer that.

Sign him up now for the "OU Football Pee Wee Exhibition Team" - Him and 10 of his friends playing Boise State may actually give Boise State a chance :)

Then again, maybe not!!!! :cool:

[The Maestro]

I showed up at 1:50 knowing practice was over at 2. You would have thought I was walking in with a Boise State camera strapped to my head. Security would not let me anywhere. So I left. Not trying that again. May go stalk the hotel in search of AD and offer him some free Subway coupons if he comes back next year.

So that's what that there Fee-nicks look like, ehr?

From what I was told.. Security will be even more in force tomorrow..

Something like blocking access to the street the school is on.

I asked the OHP officer that told us it was time to leave if I can put a cherrypicker in the residential street next to the school he said "Yeah sure, as long as you dont mind a 50 caliaber pointing at you"

True story.

So what you're trying to say is that C&CDean is doing the security for Stoops' practices.

[Soonerus]

I heard C&C Dean was on laundry duty after each practice.....

[Ash]

I heard C&C Dean was on laundry duty after each practice.....

Is that because he pronounced caliber "caliaber"?

[Soonerus]

Is that because he pronounced caliber "caliaber"?

No, I just thought that was his job....seems plausible to me...

[Ash]

No, I just thought that was his job....seems plausible to me...

Well, I guess they'll let anyone do the laundry these days.

[Soonerus]

Well, I guess they'll let anyone do the laundry these days.

No, I think a life-long dream of his to wash the garments and under-garments of OU's players....

Thank you Jason: NUTS also....I hoped surely one day will be open practices but they are not advertising even the times of the practices. When OU played ASU in the Fiesta Bowl....they had at least one day when you could go watch and mingle even!!!

Of course....we lost....and maybe that is why the change in procedure (: JWS

Hope you visit....as the land is filled with vitamins...has been sitting there for years wanting to grow stuff. And it has its own unique stuff to grow like the cacti. In a way, I wish others felt like you (distorted view) , as AZ is THE fastest growing state in the US (surpassed another desert state of Nevada) this year. sparx1

[sooneron]

The problem is, you need water to grow stuff other than cacti and due to the fastest growing issue, water is tough to come by out there. My view is not distorted as I have been to AZ many times.

[C&CDean]

This from a guy who thinks NYC is "habitable."

I lived in that desert damn near 30 years. I never wanna live there again. I like green, woods, and seasons. However, if I had to pick between Casa Grande, AZ or Brooklyn, NY, I'd be a desert rat again. In a heartbeat.

[sooneron]

Dean, I lived in NYC for 9 years, I can count the times I went to Brooklyn of my own free will on one hand.

[C&CDean]

No, I think a life-long dream of his to wash the garments and under-garments of OU's players....

You know Russell, you were whining like a little bitch the other day about me going after you while you innocently sit around and do nothing to cause anyone to dislike you.

Tell you what Russell. Posts like these in this thread pretty much open the door for me to go Hulk Hogan on your pathetic little ***. Dontcha' think boy?

Actually there is plenty of water here. Enough to support 5 million people and 200+ golf courses so far. And you can grow anything in this soil, there just isn't a large variety of native species that you're used to seeing in other parts of the country.

What you're seeing in that picture is called landscaping in these parts. :)

Primates like us weren't designed to live in a desert. We was designed to live amongst the trees.

Harry. I was at the Starbucks in Gilbert yesterday. The one at Gilbert and the 202. You weren't there. You suck. :D

Wow. I couldn't think of a more factually wrong statement...what you're seeing is the product of modern processes (by modern I mean impact of last 100+ years of grazing, development, "landscaping", etc.) and the natural environment.

The people who live there are living on borrowed time in terms of water. There's been a water problem for decades now, it's just recently that politicos will even talk about it. I was involved with trying to develop strategies for water conservation that politicos would listen to out in that part of the world -- trust me, those communities are writing checks with their water use that the natural resources can't cash.

And the part about the desert system underachieving in terms of the number of plants you can grow makes me laugh out loud. Sure, you could grow a freakin' forest if you pumped the soil with enough water and chemicals -- but there's prolly a reason, a good reason, you don't see that...

[Harry Beanbag]

Harry. I was at the Starbucks in Gilbert yesterday. The one at Gilbert and the 202. You weren't there. You suck. :D


I was there, spying on you. I mooned you through the window, but I don't think you noticed. :P

Which 202, the new San Tan Freeway? That interchange is about 5 miles from my house.

Heh. If you don't want to believe it, that's your deal. No sweat off my nutz. Just don't come leaching off my water source when your little desert oasis dries up.

:pop:

[SoonerJason]

It really depends on the person.

I can take the quads and pre-runner out in the winter, and the boat out in the spring-fall (in the same location to).

More ****s then anywhere in the US are here. There are nothing but lookers here.

It's the cleanest city I have EVER seen.

Even the freeways have the most bitchen artwork.

You got to love an Arizona sunset.

I can still go sking up north.. ask FlagstaffSooner. (love it there.. always smells like someones got a fire going)

Dont get me started on the ASU cuties.

The Suns and Steve Nash.

Not that it matters to much.. It doesn't suck filling up your gas tank and seeing Danica Patrick next you putting gas in her Lambo.

and since half of the industry that I am in is here.. that is a huge plus.

Sure.. in the future I would like to get in the Tulsa area.. But not now.

heh

(oh.. I am talking of North Scottsdale. Everywhere else doesn't really compare.)


edit * how can I forget! Barrett Jackson, FBR Open, and the Fiesta Bowl in my backyard!

[Harry Beanbag]

Actually, I'm not worried about it at all. I've seen studies that if the population continues to double every 8-10 years there will be troubles down the road, but currently things seem to be okay. Most of the reservoirs are well over half full with two that I know of being at capacity. And even though Californians won't like it, we get the first crack at the Colorado River. ;)

Who says I'll be here when the worst happens say 20, 30, 500 years from now. You seem to have relegated me and everyone else here to wither away in our wasteland of doom. Nowhere in my posts did I say everything is rosy forever. In fact I believe I said "so far" it's okay. I do recall all of your posts on the subject being full of condescension and attitude, which were met with expected results.

Anyway, this is a SO discussion, unworthy of cluttering up this outstanding Football Board.

It's not the volume of water, it's what's usable (heh. it's not the size of the reservoir...) :D

As for the tone of my posts...wah...there was no condescension in any of them. I called out a false statement, then proceeded to respond in a way that I saw fit considering you're responses (remember these, :rolleyes: ,they punctuated all of your responses).

That being said, I agree completely with the last part. It's bowl time, dagnabit! And if you're a Sooner fan, you're alright by me.:)

Until you come leachin' mah water!!!! I keed, I keed!;) ;)

And I still fail to see what was false about my statement. There are 5 million people here, there are 200+ golf courses here, we have plenty of water right now, that was landscaping in that picture, and you can grow anything here (within reason of course). What's the problem?

I wondered if you'd realize I was half joking in that last post and actually trying to deflect furthuring this discussion. I now see that I was sadly mistaken.

It doesn't matter how much water is in the ground if a good portion of it is contaminated to unsafe levels with arsenic and other nasties (which many of those desert acquifers are). You have to figure a way to make it usable and extract it.

In any case, go on doing what you do and we can leave it at that. I must have touched a raw nerve with this one. Maybe you own a golf course or something. Frankly, I don't give a ****.

But, if it makes you feel better, how's this: YOU HAVE WON TEH INNERWEB ARGUMENT, CONGRABULASHUNS!

I heard C&C Dean was on laundry duty after each practice.....i'm detecting some petty jealousy in your posts, Russell. Sounds like you're a little obsessed with Dean.

Nope, I just don't like message board knowitall jackasses, which you were acting like. But since you don't know the difference between reservoirs and aquifers, hell, you can't even spell aquifer, I'm seriously doubting you were involved developing water conservation strategies here. I sure hope not anyway or we're really in trouble.

Heh. You're right, I misread your last post. Sorry about that, we were talking two different kinds of things there at the end. The reservoirs pose different difficulties, but we don't need to get into that here.

In fact, despite my efforts to just call it good and end this discussion, you continue to drag it on. Yup, I even tried sending some green spek your way for the last post despite your name calling and chest-thumping. And you came back with this response.

Well, FWIW sorry for misreading your last couple of posts. If we happen to ever run into each other, beers are on me.

[Desert Sapper]

You can grow anything (without any regard to reason) in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, too. That doesn't mean there is abundant arable land or a viable source of natural fresh water (other than the Persian Gulf -- which with enough gazillions of dollars in oil money can be desalinated and purified). Just sayin'. :rolleyes:

That being said, I think Arizona has some of the most beautiful natural land in the country, has some of the finest women on earth, is rich in culture and entertainment resources, and is a wonderful place to live (if you can stand hot, arid climates). Kudos to you for representing Soonerdom in the AZ. Wish I could be there.
