baddog Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 Charlie drove him to the grave @kbohls UT officials confirm that Houston attorney and long-time Longhorn benefactor Joe Jamail, 90, has died.The man has passed. Show some respect. Your joke is not funny. Only an ag would laugh at this. Quote
PhatMack19 Posted December 23, 2015 Author Report Posted December 23, 2015 I wasn't laughing. The man was one of the most successful litigators in history and greatly loved his university. We all wish we had benefactors like him for our schools. Quote

OldTimer Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 The University of Texas (won't see me use that often) and the State of Texas has lost a good man.Joe Jamail was a good Texas Alum - A great Texas Lawyer - from what I have read a great benefactor - All of which he should be remember fondly for.

OldTimer Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 bulldogbacker and baddog - Mack has stated that he was not laughing and then pointed out the good facts of a great Texas Alum - so don't get your panties in a wad. Quote

Please don't tell me when I can get upset. I'm not so much upset as I can't believe anyone makes fun of someone passing. As long as it pertains to UT, I guess anything goes. UTfanatic 1 Quote
Peppermint Patty Posted December 24, 2015 Report Posted December 24, 2015 Hell, I'm 50 and Charlie is driving me to my grave. Need some wins ASAP.Jamail loved his school as much as he loved scotch.Following UTs lopsided loss to UCA he asked how much money it would cost to take his name OFF the field.RIP Mr. Jamail. Quote

baddog Posted December 24, 2015 Report Posted December 24, 2015 I guess a thread about the bonfire would be in bad taste!!Not funny even thinking about that. Taking pot shots at each other's schools is fun but sometimes we have to know where to draw the line. Quote

PhatMack19 Posted December 24, 2015 Author Report Posted December 24, 2015 I guess a thread about the bonfire would be in bad taste!!A tragedy that killed 12 students and the death of a 90 yr old man that lived a great life aren't the same. If I make it to 90, I hope they have a party at my funeral. I'm sure Jamail felt the same way. Quote
OldTimer Posted December 24, 2015 Report Posted December 24, 2015 Listen guys - I do not want to cheapen this thread by digressing from the real topic at hand which is the passing of - from all indications - a great man.But to get all upset about a tongue in cheek comment about a connection to the coaching situation at Texas to his death is a little hypocritical. You and other anti-Ag's have no qualms about making many insensitive comments including insinuating beastialty about Aggie's ALL THE TIME as well as many many other derogatory comments about A&M and its students - so you tell me where do you draw the line. Is making a wisecrack about death worse than a wisecrack about beastialty? In my opinion no!That is the last I will say on this as this thread is and should be about Joe Jamail. Quote
baddog Posted December 24, 2015 Report Posted December 24, 2015 Always depends on which side you are on. All your posts are comparative......well he said this and he said that. Why don't you focus on what was actually said here? Tongue in cheek is your way of letting it slide. It was wrong and everyone knows it. You have never heard me make fun of anyone's death. Quote
