Oh heck yeah!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI wanna see the chaps..
ReplyDeleteIf AU was in this game, how many of you would fork out about $2,500 per person to go to Pasadena and watch the game knowing it would easily run you about $4,000 per for the entire trip.
ReplyDeleteJayG-Is tim gayle blogging from Pasadena tonight?
ReplyDeleteHatin time!
ReplyDeletethe only #1 for FSJ tonight, I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteBTW, that first Texan looks pretty weathered.
wtc, afraid I would have go that route. Might even consider taking the bride Heheh (like I could go without her!)
ReplyDeleteIf AU was in this game, how many of you would fork out about $2,500 per person to go to Pasadena and watch the game knowing it would easily run you about $4,000 per for the entire trip.
ReplyDeleteIn a heartbeat....thought, i'm not married and don't have any kids.
Now that is substance!
ReplyDeleteWTC - My TV and new sound bar make it easier to save the $4G's
I'd consider it seriously, wtc. Not being in that situation, I haven't run the numbers to see if it's justifiable.
ReplyDeleteI would go and it's much more costly from Korea..
ReplyDeleteI hate ABC...
And do not even get me started on Brent Muff-burger
And lastly, remember,
Beauty is only a light switch away.
I would certainly be there.
ReplyDeleteI'd really like Jay G to do a Ustream during this game.
ReplyDeleteBeat the rush, go ugly early.
ReplyDeleteOK, I worked on this post long enough, not going to have it left behind on the previous thread:
ReplyDeleteSo tonight's football game is officially called the "Citi BCS Championship". Think of it, one of this nation's most corrupt, ethically bankrupt organizations, which by all rights should have been allowed to fail due to its own administrative incompetence, has gotten themselves involved in the BCS Championship game.
And they even got Citibank to sponsor it.
I think Bag may be blogging from Pasadena. Not Gayle.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on my final AP ballot. Had to put the Iowans at 7.
I would certainly want to. Hopefully it will happen when the MNC is in Miami again. That will be more affordable for me.
ReplyDeleteCows are parachuting on the field!
ReplyDeleteNope. No live blog.
ReplyDeleteIncredible.
I hope those girls on the blog front, particularly the brown-haired ones, are hot enough for this hot blog.
ReplyDeleteSo the government is sponsoring the BCS championship.
ReplyDeleteFreep - I did see your post earlier and meant to comment.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't that also be similar to the GMAC Bowl as well?
The brown haired ones are hot enough.
ReplyDeletethe fact that texas got its butt kicked by neb... gets them the win.
ReplyDeleteno live blog 'cause Bammers can't read?
ReplyDeleteso, Jay G, Ustream?
ReplyDeleteThe one all the way on the right has my vote!
ReplyDeleteI hate the fact that I agree with LOU...
ReplyDeletelotta hate going on tonight
...without waving hands, of course.
ReplyDeletejhags going out for this one...hooook em horns!
ReplyDeleteY'all seen the Texas cheerleaders wearing the chaps?
ReplyDeleteBless you child.

ReplyDeleteI love how its the texas game! That's why jay g is #1. War damn longhorns!
ReplyDeleteI can't Ustream for hours. I don't have that much material.
ReplyDeleteAPI...thanks. Me and Eddie are hoping that Cuz does us (and all the other Hotties minus Mark and FSJ) a big favor tonight.
ReplyDeleteyep, my Horned Frogs really let me down this week.
ReplyDeleteJGT, are you committed to the idea that tonight's participants finish 1-2? Or does it depend on how close the game ends up being?
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking Florida might get a lot of support for #2 if Bama wins convincingly. Which is what is likely to happen, I'm afraid.
So did the Ramblin Wreck!
ReplyDeleteBust!
JayGT - when you get to be my age you can UStream for hours.
ReplyDeleteTHT,
ReplyDeleteToo much information. Your sense of humor sounds like you are feeling better. I hope so :)
Amen THT
ReplyDeleteI don't know if y'all want me to pull for Texas. I have pulled for GT, TCU and Troy lately and look where that got us.
ReplyDeleteSign spotted at the Rose Bowl: "You can't spell slUT without UT." Stay classy, 'Bama.
ReplyDeleteHa! They show alabama has 7 mncs
ReplyDeleteCincy...you pulled for Auburn last Friday. You're good.
ReplyDeleteFreep: It's preliminary. Gotta see what happens tonight.
ReplyDeleteTHT: RIMSHOT!
Two of the most storied programs???
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean they tell "stories" about their number of championships?
Is there one that says, "you can't spell...at UAT."
ReplyDeleteBoise State: only second team to ever go 14-0, more wins in the past decade than any other team (112), non-conference wins include the Pac-10 Champ and number 4 team in the nation/MWC Champ, and and can't get Jay G to rank them any higher than 3rd...wanna talk about the Rodney Dangerfield of college football, that's it right there, folks. Iowans got off easy.
ReplyDeleteIs the first girl on the left 50 years old?
ReplyDeleteAs to the Texas girls, the 2nd to the right has my vote .
ReplyDeleteSoak it up Hotties.
ReplyDeleteAuburn will be here in four years time, led by Heisman Trophy winners Tyrik Rollison and Michael Dyer.
Book it.
I'm not serious, by the way. Don't take it personally.
ReplyDeleteHookem' Horns!
ReplyDeleteVision ... power ... burst.
ReplyDeleteAll things Ingram didn't show against Auburn this season.
RK: Wifey and I were saying the same thing. Maybe she's someone's mom?
ReplyDeleteWTC- I would be there no doubt!
ReplyDeleteif she's someone's mom, she's hit the gym religiously. that body is hard.
ReplyDeleteI'd be there.
ReplyDeleteWell, that's if newspapers still exist in 2014.
Haven't missed a game since App State in 1999.
I'm gonna go so I can better focus my hate.
ReplyDeleteWell Hotties...I'm out. Gonna turn off the laptop and focus all my hate on the television.
ReplyDeleteHook 'em Horns!!
Have you been to a gym lately, Peter? Hot moms are all over!
ReplyDeleteThat girl looks skeevy to me, btw.
In the first round of the Texas Cheerleader Draft, Jet selects 2nd from left.
ReplyDeleteJay G, if you're still an Auburn beat writer in 2014, I'm gonna kick you in the jewels. Your title should be nothing less than "Emperor" by then.
ReplyDeletewth is up with this national anthem duo? Strangest thing I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteno, Jay G, I haven't been to the gym lately. thanks for pointing that out....no hot moms at the gym I'd be going to if I had been in the last 3 months, anyway.
ReplyDeleteOddest pairing since Luciano Pavarotti and Courtney Love sang "Itsy Bitsy Spider" on side A and "Hey, Good Lookin'" on side B.
ReplyDeletesweet sounding flyover.
ReplyDeleteFlea? Really?
ReplyDelete1. 2nd from left
ReplyDelete2. far right
3. 2nd from right
4. the old lady
Jay G will be on ESPN in 2014.
ReplyDeletethe old lady = gym mom
ReplyDeleteJet, He will be "Coach Lou's" counterpart
ReplyDeleteWow, bama fans all excited over a coin toss win. That's the only thing they are winning tonight.
ReplyDeleteI always knew Keith Jackson was an Infidel sympathizer.
ReplyDeleteugliest coin i've ever seen
ReplyDeleteABC one-upping Fox will unveil ...
ReplyDelete"The Boom Mike!"
Well I didn't want to confuse "the old lady" with the slang for wifey "my old lady".
ReplyDeletedid that alabama cheerleader just say war eagle?
ReplyDeleteI love Keith Jackson
ReplyDeleteJet says ...
ReplyDeleteMarquis Maze.
DEFENSE!!!! DEFENSE!!!
ReplyDeleteBig East Refs?
ReplyDeleteBEASLEY!!! says Hook 'em 'Horns!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy couldn't Ron Cherry officiate this game?
ReplyDeleteMan down!
ReplyDeleteBOOM !!!
ReplyDeleteUgliest sack ever, horrible by McElroy... I love it
ReplyDeleteconfusion?
ReplyDeleteBoom Shakalaka!
ReplyDeleteThat's a stinky first drive for Alabama. Peee-you.
ReplyDeleteman, some talent Texas has there on the frontpage!!!
ReplyDeletethank you Muschamp
ReplyDeleteLove it Texas Def!!!! Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteman, what a dumb@ss call!
ReplyDeletehahaha Intercepted.
ReplyDeleteHeheh
ReplyDeleteHa Ha !!!
ReplyDeleteMcElroy is playing like Faker said he felt before the game. That was a pukey drive.
ReplyDeleteSTUPID.
ReplyDeleteAWESOME... should have just batted that down.
ReplyDeletewtc...I'd be there...no questions asked!
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding?
ReplyDeleteThat was Tubervillian.
ReplyDeleteEarly reports says Bammer is up tight Texas is loose as a goose
ReplyDeleteLot of running
ReplyDeleteHmmm. . .faking a punt on 4th and 23? From your own 20?
ReplyDeleteThat was almost Tubervillian. I'm talking Ole Miss Tubervillian.
BURNAGE!!!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this!!!!
ReplyDeleteHis dad had more Marijuana then that boy weighs.
ReplyDeleteand getting looser Digger
ReplyDeleteUh oh
ReplyDeleteGreat minds, Jet.
ReplyDeleteuh oh...Texas is in TROUBLE now...
ReplyDeleteNot good
ReplyDeleteOn the Problem Scale, that would be a 42.
ReplyDeleteI just said I feel kind of bad not pulling for the SEC. My hubby looked at me and said "you're crazy, I hate Alabama's stinking guts! It goes all the way back to my childhood."
ReplyDeletecome on Colt...get back in there.
ReplyDeleteCincyT...
ReplyDeleteYour husband is a great man.
Well Auburn's fake punt vs Ball State is no longer the dumbest play call of the year, it's been beaten twice already in this game.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know. I'm hating, too, just feeling guilty about it.
ReplyDeleteCincy- I don't feel one ounce of guilt about that. I'm donning my Texas shirt and pulling them horns on.
ReplyDeleteFront page Texans for the most part pretty good eye candy
ReplyDeleteI have met Cincy's hubby and he is, indeed, a great man. Made even greater by his impressive hate.
ReplyDeleteGo.
ReplyDeleteOk, son...welcome to TX. GOOD LUCK!
ReplyDeleteWeird injury to McCoy.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened?
Didn't see it, not even on the replay
ReplyDeleteHow great would it be if this Gilbert character beats Bama.
ReplyDeletei have no idea, JGT.
ReplyDeleteI wish they would show what happened. I saw nothing on the play about Colt getting hurt.
ReplyDeleteMy friend's son who is at the Air Force Academy just called and asked me who I was pulling for. I told him I was a huge Texas fan, hook em horns. He said he was watching the game with an Ole Miss fan and the OM fan was sure I wouldn't pull against the SEC. My friend said you don't know Mrs. Chandler, she would pull for Attilla the Hun against Alabama! Good boy!
ReplyDeleteMcClain- Cheap Shot artist?
ReplyDeleteI have never been, but I have heard Austin has the hottest students of the female variety.
He either got his bell rung, or has a rib injury based on where he was hit.
ReplyDeleteTexas needs to try some where else.
ReplyDeleteThat stinks
ReplyDeleteThat hurts.
ReplyDeleteNo fake by Texas....LOL Saban.
ReplyDeleteI've been to Austin. The girls were very forgettable.
ReplyDeletenot good for TX.. you gotta get a td there. shoot McCoy up with cortizone, tape it up, and get yourself back in there. only college game left there, Colt. Dude, your name is Colt; you gotta be tough.
ReplyDeleteHating the Bammers more than ever!
ReplyDeleteHow sucky is it to get knocked out of the game on the first series? I sure hope he can come back.
ReplyDeleteOuch.
ReplyDeleteI have been to Austin, I want to go back. Nuff said!
Coach Jet would have run again on 3rd down ... pass was way too predictable.
ReplyDeleteAlabama's # 3 was lined up offsides on that first 1st and goal and the refs caught 2 other penalties besides that one.
ReplyDeleteHit him in the back of the right shoulder ... could that be a collarbone problem?
ReplyDeleteAPI- i've been to Austin many times and I completely beg to differ on that account.
ReplyDeleteDid I hear them right when they said bama had not been called for holding in 34 quarters?
ReplyDeleteBear - And he is a McCoy!!
ReplyDeleteme too, Jet. And then on 4th down if needed.
ReplyDeleteI would have run on 3rd, but kicked the FG on 4th. Take for sure points.
ReplyDeleteLIVE BALL
ReplyDeleteHard times for the Tiders.
ReplyDeleteAgain.
UAT's head is elsewhere.
ReplyDeletewth? Bama looking dead out there...
ReplyDeletewow. the kickoff is live is covered in pee wee football. yeah, Bama looks focused. geez...
ReplyDeletePlease come back in Colt! Hope he's ok.
ReplyDeleteI think the Florida game did them in.
ReplyDeleteThat a boy Julio!!!
ReplyDeletePlay that video now!
SWEET!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWholio superstar?
ReplyDelete8 in the box until freshman shows he can throw.
ReplyDeleteThey need McCoy while bammer is playing "give up the ball"
ReplyDeleteThe UA-T fans aren't focused on the game. That's the problem right now.
ReplyDelete11 in the box.
ReplyDeleteWell he threw it, and they missed it.
ReplyDeleteShoulda run on 3rd down ... run clock without McCoy.
ReplyDeleteMcCoy injury huge
ReplyDeletePass was too hard. Easy, young man.
ReplyDeletesome of the local stores here in Mobile have been announcing they will be open right after the game to sell Bama national champ gear. Nothing like counting the chickens...
ReplyDeleteThis ain't gonna get it folks
ReplyDeleteIt should be 14-0 Texas!
ReplyDeletewell, the Bama D is alive...bet those guys will be cussing every offensive/skill player UAT has if they screw up again though...
ReplyDeleteColt McCoy has to be in the game for Texas to win. I'm afraid he won't be.
ReplyDeleteDear texas-not being up 14-0 right now may haunt you. I hope it does not, but it may.
ReplyDeleteSincerely,
Momentum
I like & respect FSJ, but nowhere near as much as I hate UA-T.
ReplyDeleteIt's up to Muschamp's Defense
ReplyDeleteEddie, can't you make a call?
ReplyDeleteGet this Colt kid back on the field.
The women in Austin are hot and rich.
ReplyDeleteCollege Station ...not so much.
Not good at all
ReplyDeleteThat's a problem.
ReplyDeleteno pads, off to xray = not a good sign
ReplyDelete1+BEASLEY!!! says Hook 'em 'Horns!!!
ReplyDeleteKicking it short is OK but not that short
ReplyDeletethat returner was waving that ball out there. UT should have stripped it.
ReplyDeleteNews flash: McElroy still sucks
ReplyDeleteIf Texas somehow wins, they'll have to give Boom a $1 million raise.
ReplyDeletedidn't Bama's RB win the Heisman or did I miss something?
ReplyDeleteOl' Boom's got Lil' nicky figgered out so far.
ReplyDeletewow...running it works huh?
ReplyDeleteI can live with a 6-0 final. Or maybe UT can add a pick 6.
ReplyDeleteIs that Brodie at QB?
ReplyDeleteThree sacks already?!?!?
ReplyDeleteHonk if you sacked Greg
ReplyDeleteman, these Bammers sure are getting ill with each other on d@mn near every play...
ReplyDeleteKeepin HATE alive!!!
ReplyDeleteHonk if you sacked McElroy
ReplyDeleteIf Texas somehow wins, Hotties should give Boom a raise!
ReplyDelete
