  5. That’s a tough one. As a Sooner fan I’m not sure who I’d rather have back. Roy for us or Simms for the whorns!

  6. I guess I don't see the benefit of teaching "ball control" to that extent or in this specific context. To me, I'd certainly place more value on controlled movement and scoring ... which you have to do, eventually, to win the game. As a former sportswriter, I sat through a number of games where teams would literally stand with the ball and wouldn't move until forced to do so. That's not coaching. That's not teaching. That's not benefitting anyone. Not to mention, it's horrendous to watch.

  8. You can't even articulate a reason for your opposition to him. "He was a stain on the office?" "He's a racist?" Please. JoXi can't even finish a sentence without putting his foot in his mouth. "We've assembled the largest voter fraud organization in history." Talk about a stained office. Doesn't get any more stained than acquiring it via theft. His racism is also a matter of public record. That's not even considering his lifetime of living off the taxpayer's dime with nothing to show for it except a fat bank account full of dollars and yuan.

  9. I know Barry was trolling, but the only person I think would be mad if you included the Nippon League would be Pete Rose. Funny thing is Ichiro Suzuki will be in the HOF, but Pete will never be now in my opinion. Ichiro had the most hits total. Other comparisons of their careers : https://www.mlb.com/news/how-ichiro-suzuki-compares-to-pete-rose-c184111918 .

  10. Actually Texas could have. While Texas wealth back then was based on two things cattle and cotton, we weren't a plantation state. Some of the wealthy families did own slaves, but it wasn't widespread especially in West Texas. Many slaves did work the farms in Texas, but it wasn't as widespread as you make it out to be. I would say that maybe the Revolution with Mexico had maybe 5% to do with slavery for the wealthy that chose secession, but the 90% of it had to do with representation, because the governing seat was in Coahuila with only 1 representative. The seed had already been planted however when the fight for Independence against Spain in 1813. So there were a lot of sour grapes that grew for 23 years. Then there was racism against the Tejanos since they weren't a part of Mexico, and they were seen as outsiders. Then you had cultural differences mainly based on religion, most of the immigrants were protestant, but they were supposed to convert to the Catholic Church which was recognized by both Spain and Mexico as the national religion. Slavery had little to do with the Revolution of Texas, because cowboys of all colors rode the ranges of Texas back then. Many of those cowboys or vaquero's were free black or interracial. I'm sure back then you could barely tell the difference from being out in the sun all day. Even today there is racism in Mexico, as many blacks are still called mestizos. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Mexicans . I wonder now if they're having this same debate in Spain. They sound worse than almost any other country next to England where the sun wouldn't set on the Union Jack across the globe.

  13. Well...I do know some of the Hale family from my High School days here in Longview and from Insurance sales...and unless they're cousins,etc. to the Williams family they're not that closely related...ok ? I cannot speak for Malcolm Kelly or his relatives because I simply do not know. I'm somewhat older than both "anti" and "LoboFan07" at 25 or so years but they're actually closer in age to Kelly themselves and TWilliams...too ! Hope any of that helps ?!? R.J.

  16. I guess I was so focused on Kaden and Markevion that I didn't really think about just how young the young RBs were. Holy smokes... these kids are only gonna get faster and stronger. And if the Tutt kid develops like we all think he will... Maaaaan.

  17. Nah, y'all ain't allowed to have him back. Mike Evans was a damn cheat code. All you had to do was throw the ball within 5-10 yards of him, and the blankety-blank came down with it. @Stoney, delete this post. Make him choose someone else.

  22. The new rookie contract rules are pulling a lot out earlier than they should leave. They’re giving up that year of development at the risk of getting through the three years of rookie contracts. Some are going undrafted and it’s awfully costly for them. You and I understand the need to stay, but to young guys looking for a payday, money talks and BS walks. Problem is, a good bit are ending up with more BS than money

  25. The other problem with Television ratings is that they don't get the entire perspective--kids are watching more streaming services, plus most kids are watching those 30 second TikToks--so they can get their news like @BarryLaverty......Just Joking Barry--We know you get yours from Op-Eds.

  26. Lol, dude... I'm, like, the fifth or sixth best option. For real... I'll totally defer to resident OU recruiting expert Val. When it comes to Lobo stuff, you're better off asking @ANTI, or @LoboFan07, @RandyJohnson, or several other Lobo lifers. I'm a Johnny-come-lately when it comes to Lobo Nation, and still learning new stuff daily.

  28. I think if a 17 year old is old enough to be sent to war to fight & die for America, then they are Certainly old enough to buy his own personal weapon, buy cigarettes, beer, whisky or anything else a 21 year old can do; if they can’t do these things, they shouldn’t be allowed to take up arms in the defense of their country.

  33. So helping a country that wants independence and getting something for the help is bad? propaganda in history books? But you had to learn your nonsense view of history from a book, so which books in your eyes don’t have propaganda? You sound like you got a history degree from Jarvis.

  35. Well, to be fair, I think we need to draw a distinction between liberals and leftists. I'm liberal to an extent on some stuff. While I may disagree with self described liberals on a great many topics, I've found you can at least engage in a civilized dialogue with them. The leftist on the other hand, full blown cuckoo for coco puffs crazy town.
