  1. You sure? If UT and OU both win, they will be 6-2, and OU won the head to head. If they both lose, they'll both be 5-3, again with OU claiming the head to head. I'm pretty sure Texas has to win and OU has to lose. In the second scenario, Oklahoma State would also be 5-3, and Texas has that 3 way tiebreaker. EDIT: Turns out that I'm wrong. In that 3-way tie, all the tiebreakers tie down to the BCS standings. So I guess Texas does need to win, since they aren't going to pass OU in the BCS by losing to aTm. That's not what the Big 12 site says: http://www.big12sports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/tie-breaker.html Texas should win because of tiebreaker number 2 because they only lost 1 game against the division while Oklahoma and OK State both lost 2. That's what I get for going over those in my head. So I was right after all, hooray I guess.

  3. but you're paying 12 mil a year for it! that's what makes it a bad idea. Yeah, if we could have signed the cheap stud closer I'm sure we would have. Except Cordero is hardly 2002-2004 Eric Gagne on the mound. It's all the money with none of the guaranteed production.
  4. The difference is, Cordero isn't trash. The reason we've had to get so many relievers is because they all suck. Have you seen Cordero's performance aside from 2007? He's Michael Wuertz + playing time in the 9th + service time to be a FA.
  5. Dear Darren McFadden, Please continue scoring touchdowns at your leisure. Hugs and Kisses, TT
  6. Can someone find a FA closer deal that people didn't hate before it was over? Paying 11+ million for a closer is lunacy, doing it for a nearly 33 year old for 4 years is how you get people to claim you have a reliever fetish.
  7. For as much as potential scenarios get obsessed over, no one on TV seems to recognize that the Texas-aTm game has no impact on the Big 12 South. No matter what Texas does, they go to the B12 Championship game if Oklahoma loses, and they don't if Oklahoma wins.
  8. you really believe that? Yes, Pence is going to pay the piper when his BABIP comes back to reality.
  9. Dear Darren McFadden, Stop dropping the football. Love, TT
  10. Can someone explain to me how Mexico is in front of us in the FIFA World Rankings? Is it because they advanced in their sisters-of-the-poor quality World Cup Group?
  11. What role would you have for Lubanski? He'd be a nice addition to the system, but his AAA performance this year leads me to believe that he'd be overmatched at the MLB level next year.
  12. I can't believe people didn't see this coming (I don't mean you, and I don't mean necessarily against George Mason). K-State isn't going to be a top-25 team this year. Maybe if they still had Huggins. Honestly, I was surprised when I saw them in the preseason Top 25. Of course, at that time I was still under the impression that Beasley was a 6-4 guard for some reason, but still. I think they sold their soul to keep that recruiting class, so to speak. I don't think Martin is up to the task of high-major college coach.
  13. K-State is melting down against George Mason. Ed Hightower is making sure that there's a whistle every 30 seconds or so, and Bill Walker just freaked out and got himself T'ed up and fouled out in one fell swoop. From what I can gather, Beasley looks like a great player, but K-State is a pretty undisciplined team. Mason leads by 10 with 4 to play.
  14. Wigginton stands a decent chance of being better than Pence, and that's not really praise of Wigginton.
  15. I'm in the also unenviable position of rooting for USC. Lots of scoring early, Trojans up 17-14.
  16. Yeah but you forgot to add "robbed Barry Bonds in an all-star game" to Hunter's resume. That's worth about 15 million itself.
  17. I got my USMNT long sleeve away jersey today, and it is awesome.
  18. I like Closser as an emergency catcher better than Koyie Hill.
  19. Jones has a better walk rate than anyone on our roster.
  20. Boy was that a terrible decision for Neitzel to shoot a contested three from beyond NBA range.
  21. Don't punish Daniel because he's actually got some good players around him.
  22. He's not even a 1st Team All Big XII WR.
  23. hahaha, 8 minutes and 10 shots for Gardner, including 4 threes. Same old TG.
  24. Kevin Love is the new Josh McRoberts.
  25. Impressive.
