First off let's get our facts straight. This site picks the top 64 teams based on attendance, not Sagrin or any other ratings. Here is a quote from the site: Under this new plan, the top 64 schools in the country are selected based on average home attendance figures regardless of current division st...

Bottom line is the tiny bitter man was still at the helm when ND got into trouble. Either he is the man in charge or he isn't. So he should take some of the blame.

Furthermore, I have no doubt that Holtz put pressure on ND to accept athletes that ND didn't prior to his arrival nor after his exit.

Can he coach? No question! Is he dirty and does he cheat? Undoubtedly in my opinion. Would I want him as the RICE coach? Hell, no! Bottom line is he is the head coach. He can say that he had no knowledge etc, etc, but it doesn't matter he is in charge. But I believe he knew each and every thing that...

Congrats Mucho for the move and the success of your program so quickly.

Here's hoping the success continues and you can move to a conference without such a fractured identity. The line up is different in damn near every sport.

also Rice is about 21k, Miami is about 29k which is still lower than the cost to go to USC (33k for tuition) So why pay more to go to USC when you can go to RICE for about 1/3 the cost and get a better education? Oh, and furthermore USC can "take" some baseball players that RICE can't eve...

First off Congrats on getting married and selecting a woman who has college football season tickets.

But since she seems to enjoy college football as much as you do why is the wedding in the fall again? Hello, summer or mid December?

Just wondering?

Left Seater

Nope just the only ones checking into the baseball forum now that the season is over.

and if you have any questions then just ask Maryland fan or T Rex. The SEC had nine teams make the field of 64. Only three made it out of the regionals. One then lost at home in the super regionals. By contrast the Big XII only had 5 teams in the regionals and three made it thru to the CWS. Where ar...

Props to Texas that was quite a dominant romp thru the CWS.

The next time I root for the SEC it will be the first.

Hook 'em!

Well, if you are only a fan of "upper eschelon" of college football then I guess I can see how Army v Navy might make your list. If however you are a college football fan or hell even just a football fan then there is no way you can put this game on your list. A big part of what makes it g...

Left Seater

Blind ref, I would encourage you to attend an Army v Navy game before calling it overrated. I think your opinion would change once you did.

And I would like to add Keith Jackson to the overrated list.

Left Seater

First it was southern teams and I guess now it is southern teams.

If you want to talk about biases lets talk about the SEC.

Left Seater

Bottom line for me is I think both sides will manipulate numbers in an attempt to prove their view. I will look at the history of the earth and see that we have had temperature changes over many years and the current warming fits in quite nicely with historical trends.

I got the fact that it wasn't a personal shot, but was using "real" first hand events to support my arguement. Again, a few minutes around a place like Sierra Tucson will give you all the "medical study" info you need on the subject of pot being addictive. If mine were but the on...

I love the one about why would anyone choose to put up with the ridicule and abuse. As if no one ever goes against the norm to be different. Using your line of thinking the small group of goth kids in High School didn't choose to be that way, they were born that way. Why the hell would the put up wi...

Left Seater

I am real. Hell, I would rather see alcohol added to the controled substance list before seeing pot removed. Tell me what part of watching a relative become hooked on "medical" pot perscribed by a Dr isn't real? Tell me what part of the stories shared at Sierra Tucson durring family week a...

Diego, Because this is an opinion based message board. RadioFan, No one gave me anything which I why I had to "buy" my own red-colored glasses as you put it. As for the dog here's hoping that if that has happened to you you went next door and took it up with the owners. It is quite possibl...

And since it's known that prohibitions increase violent crime So what you are saying is that laws making murder illegal are actually increasing murder. Taking that one small step further we might as well do away with all laws since they just lead to more lawlessness as you claim. You can bring your...

I know that some of you won't be able to handle this topic like adults, but my hope is that more can. How do you look at this issue? This often breaks down along along red and blue, religous and agnostic, and liberal and conservative lines. Both sides throw out 1000 pieces of trash and crap for ever...

I am all for state's rights in this case. Let CA do what they want. Hell, it brings a smile to my face when I think about it. Regional pockets around the country where pot is legal. CA, MA, MI. What's wrong with that. If they allow it maybe more of the druggies will leave TX and never come back. At ...

Thank you! ;)

And Props to Suncoast for calling it.

Gas just may be the most taxed item in the world. The property owner pays taxes on his land, and if he doesn't also own the mineral rights someone else pays taxes on the mineral rights. These taxes go up when the drilling company puts in the improvements for the drill pad. The pipeline company is ta...

Left Seater

Yeah. Like I said it depends on your perspective.

not that we have much union news thankfully, since they are few and far between here in Texas, but the news lately has been great. The first story involved a local rock quarry that had union workers. A few months ago the workers striked over hourly pay and an extra week of vacation. The union though...

Not a big fan of the unis. Huge fan of the new QB coach.

Left Seater

BTH, I am certainly not a fan of the recruiting process or the LOI for that matter, but having signed one myself I know for a fact that as long as the athlete qualifies grade wise and doesn't go Randy Moss or Nebraska I back prior to matriculating then the school owes them one year. Now onto the LOI...

Left Seater

Just wanted to clear up one thing on the LOI. Once signed it does hold both parties to a few things. The signer can only practice his or her sport with the team he signed with. The school is obligated to give a scholly to the athlete for one year as long as the athlete meets both the school's and th...

Uh, Rog, check the 2002 and 2003 National champs.

Both Texas and RICE won those titles because of pitching and defense. I still think good pitching trumps good defense even with metal bats.

Left Seater

Caught the game and the catch and the replay on ESPN about 100 times.

That field is just like the Sand Aggies field, totally ugly!

Let's keep this to baseball. If you two feel the need to go at it take it to the main room. Otherwise beat each other up with baseball stats in here.

Left Seater

Hey, sorry to get in the middle of the Big XII love fest, but I am going to say Texas is the class of the Big XII despite their opening weekend.

Now you two shake and continue beating each other about the head.

Not often there is a difference of 12 spots between the rankings of one team, see RICE.

T Rex, if you were an athlete you would be a boxer, since you are still active but retired. :)

Props to Texas for again proving they are our daddy. We sure hurt ourselves with 4 errors, but Texas was pretty dominate. Granted the score was 7-6 but I really thought the umpire was jobing Texas. I can count at least three times that RICE watched strike three yet the umpire never called it. Hell, ...

The next Aaron Rodgers?

What gives you an indication that this guy will bitch and moan about the bowl he is playing in prior to laying an egg in his bowl game?

Not only these three, but 13 in a row now in Austin and 13 of 14 anywhere.

Watching the 3rd game right now on ESPN2. It has been quite some time since I have seen such a horrible game from the Sooners. Runner on third and Texas lays down a sac bunt. No throw to the plate, runner scores, which is fine, but they also didn't throw to first. WTF? That was preceded by a soft si...

Sorry now I get how I was unclear on what I meant for the SEC. They are going to have something, but I was saying they are unsure on which system.
