I get what you're saying, but the dude has the most accurate info out there on A&M mainly because he doesn't run with every rumor he hears. He'll confirm something as much as possible before saying anything definitive.

Official press release:
-
Texas A&M has notified the Big 12 that we are looking elsewhere.

D'OH!

I'm now hearing by Saturday, as well. We shall see. I'm ready for this to be over. It's not just about the LHN. We should have made the move last year, but I think our administration really wanted to make an attempt at salvaging what we all knew was a dying conference. Maybe that was just for political reasons so we could say that we did what we could to save the Big 12 or maybe they actually felt that would be best. Either way, many (if not most) Aggies were ready to bolt last year. We need stability. When the Big 12 crumbles and everyone moves to the superconferences, we'll have our place in the SEC already and the other schools will be scrambling not to be left out. I don't think that would have happened to us, but now we won't have to worry about that.

info = bad Not happening today. #-o

As we all expected, Coach John Reese (father of Aggie commit J-Mychal Reese) has now officially been added to the A&M staff.

Any Maryland fans on here? Looks like Turge got his first recruit there, Shaq Cleare. Good pickup, IMO.

Sick grandma excuse. Now Baylor coach Art Briles had a relationship with Willie Lyles when Briles was at the University of Houston (nudge nudge wink wink).

Bears preseason week 2; Monday August 22nd at the Giants

Yeah we should probably target a legit WR in the offseason. It's too bad we didn't have the cap space to sign anyone good this year because there were quite a few good WRs out there. But, but, but Roy Williams was a Pro Bowler under Martz in Detroit and his college coach is on the Bears staff. That means he will lead the league in receiving, right? -
The rumblings I'm hearing is that A&M to the SEC will go down on Wednesday. We'll see if I had good info in the next 48 hours.

It could well be that I've just never paid that close of attention (I know I haven't this year...least baseball I've ever watched), but I'm not sure I've seen guys eating/spitting seeds while playing the field before. In the dugout, sure. But that was just a weird sight. It's not uncommon at all. Hell, I used to do it in HS. Just throw a handful of seeds in my cheek right before taking the field. It's really no different that chewing tobacco or gum. Now if you're digging into your back pocket for more while the pitcher is in the windup, then there is an issue.

ARAMABOMB!

Looks like the Georgetown player on the far left might have hit his own teammate in the cheek.

Grace is an awful broadcaster. The play by play guy isn't much better.

But why was he told on 7/22 and allowed to work until now?

It is a different time and place from when WGN helped them draw in a nationwide audience. Exposure in a starved market is how they capitalized on that issue. But that era is over. Keeping them on WGN isn't just a hit to the short-term bottom line, it's bad for long-term business. The nationwide presence is there. And it's not going anywhere, unless they just lose every season. Would anybody actually watch WGN if it weren't for the Cubs? Bulls. And for the godforsaken of the world, Blackhawks. Those aren't on the superstation though, right ? Just local WGN Channel 9? Some of the Bulls games are on WGN America, as they call it. None of the Hawks games are. About the only other time I turn on WGN is to catch some Cheers or Entourage (yeah, yeah, I know you think it sucks) re-runs. -

Um, what about the picture of the two of you together and the multiple autographed photos you personalized to him?

Kurkjian was the best. Pedro Gomez was good, too. :lol:
