Cowboys offseason thread
TxHoops replied to Mr. Buddy Garrity's topic in Professional Sports- NFL, NBA, MLB, Etc
I can't imagine AP commanding squat on the market. Neither will Minnesota be able to in trying to deal him. Nobody is going to want to pay his contract with them. The Vikings biggest issue will be finding someone who will take a $15M cap hit for the upcoming season. He's also scheduled to make $15M and $17M in '16 and '17 but it looks like those years are past his guarantee. Translation: As I'm sure was contemplated when this deal got done, he ain't getting paid that kind of money in those seasons... -
From what I am told, they need to do much more than make the tournament. The AD wanted Barnes gone when he got the job and last year was the only year in a while his team actually over-performed. That, coupled with the Myles Turner signing made it impossible for him to do anything. But we are now back to what has been the case for awhile. While they don't have "S. Smart" on Barnes' office door yet, that is certainly the popular sentiment around Belmont. I don't know if Patterson is a Shaka fan or not and we know he's already made one hire that was contrarian to the BMDs.

This is my thinking right now as well. Same things were said, and probably in stronger terms, about Patrick Mahomes last year. Son of a big league pitcher, he was never "supposed" to make it on campus at Tech. Except he consistently said he would be there. Then, his draft stock fell and a year later, he's the incumbent starter at Tech at the QB position and playing baseball for the Red Raiders too. It's wayyy too early to assume Murray will be drafted high enough to command big money in the MLB. I would bet he's in school come the fall if I had to make a bet.

To be honest, I don't think I put them in as it sits right now.

I tend to agree with this theory. And the more information that gets released seems to support it. It's one of those "offenses" that is easy to allege and hard to "disprove." And unfortunately, we live in a society that tends to forget it's not up to the accused to disprove anything. Thus, it's easy to mar someone's image based on an unsupported allegation. And this is just another factoid that seems to severely discredit this girl's credibility.

I think he will still go #1. And I have a feeling he's going to have a good NFL career.

Losing by double digits to Iowa state at home (granted a quality team). But read today that barring a sweet 16 finish, barnes is finished. In other words, he gone.

A&M Basketball---Co-SEC Champs!

I don't see how they aren't already in. And deservedly so. -
We're not sleeping with WVU. We allow them to use a guest bedroom. You know, STDs and all...

Recruiting violations are not only encouraged in the $EC, they are a badge of honor...

A&M Basketball---Co-SEC Champs!

REALLY like what Kennedy has done with this team. I was not a believer going into this season but with the job he's done this year on the court and recruiting, count me in. Speaking of in, I would have A&M in the field now. Period. -
I bet that's the last UK game he gets this season. If someone beats em, great job. But you can't have some clown screwing up a potentially historic season due to a vendetta or incompetence.

No idea how a college crew can be that bad. What even possesses someone to blow their whistle on that Booker play? Not like you whistle until you see foot on the line.

Do You Believe Global Warming Is Real?

When you think the lock-steppers don't know what they are talking about with respect to global warming, look for this argument. Then you can know they don't. ;) :rollseyes: -
Get ready MJD. You're next up in the parade of washed up RBs woody likes to sign.

Do You Believe Global Warming Is Real?
TxHoops replied to EnlightenedMessiah's topic in Political Forum
Yes, you guys are right. The overwhelming majority of the scientific community skew their data because they are liberals. You figured it out. What is the most ridiculous thing about this discussion is that it has become a bi-partisan issue. It really should transcend party lines. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. Unless you are named Limbaugh and serving magic kool aid. But I will leave the rest of this discussion to the legion of meteorologic geniuses occupying this board :rolleyes: -
I would have thought you guys got all of Tech you wanted. The Red Raiders owned the Aggies in Big 12 years.

Do You Believe Global Warming Is Real?
TxHoops replied to EnlightenedMessiah's topic in Political Forum
Here is a discussion that breaks the issue down, although rudimentary, in a way most on this board can understand. My apologies that it doesn't come from the great scientific mind of Rush Limbaugh: [Hidden Content] -

Ditto. RIP to a coaching icon.

Reading for comprehension...not your strong suit ;). Although as much reading as you do on the University of Texas, I'd expect you're improving...
