I'm guessing that this is either sports related (something I don't follow) or it's the results of a poll taken by Arnel Pineda on which USA states he liked the best.

:lol:

:lol:

The deal breaker must have been when Arnel heard that Alabama lets brown people sit in the front of the bus now.

Fans of teams say "we"... always have, always will. It's a part of being passionate about your team and is certainly nothing to call a guy out on... pick and choose your battles. It's not like SG's saying he's solely responsible for UF doing well this year, if he were, then thump his nuts. :P

It's still my biggest pet peeve. I always envision a bunch of fat, beer-drinking armchair quarterbacks sitting around second-guessing the coaches saying "we should've run the ball there!" or "we're not containing the quarterback at all!" Say "they." You're not on the team.

Touche. A lot of people upset with him right now. Funny, because last year he couldn't do anything wrong when they went to the Rose Bowl. Now people want him run out of town. What's eerie are the similarities between this current situation and what ended his career at Florida. We'll see what happens. 8)

Man, you are very level headed. This is what we knew would happen at Florida and my alma mater wont accept his mediocrity. I said it as soon as you guys hired him..it wont be no time till he wears out his welcome. I like the Illini and I hope you find a coach who is genuine...not a pretender. Yeah the guy can recruit but when you cant coach them what good is that??? BTW-Im not a fat ass...Im a little over 6 foot tall and I weigh 195lbs. :wink:

Thanks. I'm very interested to see what plays out. I'm graduating this coming May, so I won't be around to see how (if) they bounce back next year to keep Zook's job. And by the way, I wasn't referring to you as the fat beer-drinking second-guessing fan. I know you could kick my ass. :lol:

Friday night I handed the mic to a couple of girls at the Varsity in Baton Rogue. They began to sing the Ole Miss fight song. Now I don't know the OM fight song from "Little Green Apples," but apparently that was a huge fax paux...Anyway we survived. But there were several who did not survive the Alabama LSU game, so I consider myself lucky.

There's going to be a contention that Texas beat OU, so I wouldn't be surprised if Texas is considered over Oklahoma.

I hope your right bro!!! Im a bit concerned about this saturdays FSU game...we've beaten them 4 years straight and since this is a rivalry and they hate us as much as we hate them I know theyd love to knock us off...plus its in their house. If we get past this one then Im ready to say Bama wont keep up with us.
