November 15, 200619 yr But I end up talking to 5 or 6 people that say "shut up, crybaby." Be glad GT's not here...:lol: :lol: :lol:
November 15, 200619 yr Yeah yeah. Again with the whole Bush push. Have you EVER seen that called? I could probably show you 10 other times when it wasn't called either. Just because it is rarely called, doesn't mean it's legal...
November 15, 200619 yr Author Just because it is rarely called, doesn't mean it's legal... I agree. But why start then? Oh, nevermind. I know the answer to this. It's because it was against Notre Dame and they usually get the good breaks. (I know by saying that last remark, I might be asking for trouble. But I have many examples to support that statement.)
November 15, 200619 yr I agree. But why start then? Oh, nevermind. I know the answer to this. It's because it was against Notre Dame and they usually get the good breaks. Well, they didn't make the call, so its a moot point...
November 15, 200619 yr Author I'm not insisting on anything. Your the one pointing out the article and taking ESPN's word for things - which by the way merely concludes that: "Parry said he doesn't believe officials on the field or in the replay booth made an egregious mistake, just a difficult judgment call." That's a far cry from saying it is obvious these were two horrible calls. For the record, Texas may have still scored a TD despite the first one you mentioned that should have been blown dead. It's as big of a mystery as why Bush would lateral the ball on that long run. We will never know. So am I insisting on anything? No, I'm just enjoying the Longhorn's Championship. :thumb: You started it by bringing up the whole Bush/Leinert deal at Notre Dame. So I tried to do the same thing to counter your statement. You're right. Texas may have scored anyway. But then again, they may not have. Who is to say that they wouldn't have fumbled or anything on the next play. The replay showed that he was down. Plain and simple. Replay was put into place to make sure the officials get it right. Why not use it? I didn't say they were horrible calls. As I watched the game, I can see how the officials made the calls that they did. As far as the title, better enjoy it for 2 more months. You'll have to give it up. hehehehehe :lol: :lol:

We came so close in '77 and '84 that I began to believe they could never win another. So after a 35 year wait, what's another one or two? :thumb:

The only excitment I get from Texas is when they lose. It's nothing personal to you. It's an anit Texas thing.

It's just business. :lol: Actually I liked Nebraska when Osborne was there. But then again I'm a Texas fan but loved to watch Oklahoma run the bone. (Saying thay you will really hate me now.)
November 16, 200619 yr 1. I was trying to find out if you were crying because you, too, was for USC or what. That's all I was asking when I said "huh?" 2. Apparently nobody knows how to take a joke. I am over the game. I don't like either team. Well, USC is ok. But I'm a Nebraska fan and I hate Texas with a passion. I guess if everything I type is taken literally, I'll just stop posting. Another Nebraska fan? Post away my husker friend. Go Big Red!:banana:
November 16, 200619 yr Something on your mind? We may have the next Farmhands, on our hands here. Welcome to the site Hard Rock Fan. I too thought this was a little too late to bring this up. However USC has noone else to blame except themselves. They let ONE player beat them.
November 16, 200619 yr Author Another Nebraska fan? Post away my husker friend. Go Big Red!:banana: Your Location description for yourself is hilarious. The first time I saw it, I busted out laughing. I have a Nebraska room. The walls are painted red. I have flags and banners and all sorts of Nebraska stuff on the walls. I bought red curtains. I took the blades off the ceiling fan and painted them red. It's really intense. I love it. If the lights are on and it's dark outside, as you drive to toward the house, it's really freaky. I had a chance to go to Lincoln and watch my first game there. I met somebody with season tickets and she begged me to come. But my wife was expecting our first child and I just couldn't leave. Maybe one day though. I did get to watch Eric Crouch his senior year when they were at Missouri. I'll never forget it.

However USC has noone else to blame except themselves. They let ONE player beat them. Whenever I said that this may have cost them the game, of course I was joking. I also blamed USC for not converting on the 4th down that game Texas the ball. So I didn't mean it literally.
