Aggies 12, Longhorns 7

Posted on November 24, 2006 by Bill

The six year losing streak ends at Austin.  Varsity’s horns are sawed off…and this delights me to no end.  Who should get the better bowl game?  Each team is 9-3 with the Aggies holding the head-to-head edge.  I’m unsure whether two … Continue reading →

What a storied series this has become!  And unfortunately, the lead story tonight is only partially what happens on the floor.  I must say that I’m disappointed in the organization as it misbehaves in front of all to see.  Both … Continue reading →

99-85 and it wasn’t even that close.  Garbage time began in the 3rd period after the Mavs rolled out to a 28 point lead.  They attacked in waves. The referee conspirators meanwhile called 27 fouls on the Mavericks and only … Continue reading →
