New member on the way?

Hey everyone. News is breaking at this hour about Texas A&M and its feelings about the Southeastern Conference.

The Houston Chronicle, citing an unnamed source, says school regents are expected to meet this week and discuss a possible jump to the SEC. An offer apparently is on the table.

Houston is the fattest city in America.

Have a nice night.

Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Miller,

These people don't live in the same world as you and I. Their math is special.; 9:13 PM
CHB said...: Miller, have you heard anything on JaBrian Niles commitment to AU?; 9:22 PM
wtc said...: Interesting copy from the AJC:

Former Carver quarterback DeRon DeFurr – who was Class offensive player of the year in 2007 — left Auburn, where he had been moved to safety, for Memphis, where he is now a 6-3, 225-pound linebacker.; 9:27 PM
Miller said...: CH-B.... Niles did not commit.

Doesn't mean it couldn't happen soon... but as of right now, he is not committed anywhere.; 9:27 PM
Miller said...: WTC... check your FB messages; 9:28 PM
Anonymous said...: The ACC doesn't get the top athletes. A top hoops player can't be a BMOC at an SEC school. Similarly, many top football recruits don't want to go to a conference with smaller, less filled stadiums and a fan base that isn't as rabid as SEC fans.

The ACC has an impressive school pedigree with respectable athletics.; 9:34 PM
API said...: nite nite hot ones. I wager that THT is the first early morning poster on Tuesday, unless Wake is working 3rd shift.; 12:39 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: I'm not working tonight, but my sleep schedule is still the same... so I'm up.

The problem is I'm stuck in a class all day tomorrow. So I have to be up at 6:30, which means no sleep for me.; 1:37 AM
Unknown said...: "... Mizzo is looking like Lee Corso after he puts on the wrong mascot head..."

Simply hilarious.; 1:42 AM
Unknown said...: Just so API can lose his bet...; 4:16 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Annoying occurrence #1: realizing your shoe is untied halfway through your timed run.

Annoying occurrence #2: when you stop to tie your shoe, realizing your timer has also stopped functioning.

Gave up and did sprints all the way back home.; 5:13 AM
Honey said...: Morning, Hotties! Off to walk. Shin splints better today so maybe it's just my body getting used to it.

Wake,
Can't imagine doing sprints in this heat and humidity! Power walking about puts me under!; 5:24 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: I'm a floridian Cincy, It's just a way of life for me.; 5:27 AM
E-Bro said...: Morning Hotties. Time to buzz the tower real quick before I head back into an internet world hopefully devoid of World Cup updates. Brazil is in action today and a maybe the best match of the first round of games, Portugal-Ivory Coast, is set to kick off in a few hours.

Wake...to answer your question about Bonnaroo. All the acts I saw were good I thought. Kings of Leon played great, but could have done a bit more to energize the crowd. Flaming Lips killed it with their Darkside of the Moon cover. Probably the best show put on all weekend was by Jay-Z on Saturday night. Stevie Wonder, Dave Matthews were all great.

Weezer was particularly strong I thought. Even took time out of their own catalogue to cover Lady Gaga's "Poker Face" as well as MGMT's "Kids", which made me happy. Phoenix was a band I had been looking forward to hearing more from for the first time and they didn't disappoint. They've got the whole slick, European synth rock thing going on (they're French), but I dig it.; 5:53 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Wasn't my question E-bro, but I enjoyed the rundown nonetheless. I think going to bonaroo one year would be pretty cool.

I'm headed out to an 8 hour class on a computer program to diagram traffic crashes... not fun.; 5:56 AM
E-Bro said...: My bad Wake. Should've figured RK (he asked) would want to know. I'm still dazed and confused from the Roo.

Wake is RK. Finkle is Einhorn!!; 6:37 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Cops at Bonarroo not looking to arrest people? Cool. I'd still stare at you suspiciously all weekend, Wake.; 6:42 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Einhorn is Finkle!; 6:43 AM
Anonymous said...: Laces out.; 7:12 AM
Anonymous said...: Or in aTm's case, please Mack may I have another?; 7:12 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: That's part of the coolness PF, I can listen to good music, and make some dope arrests at the same time... how do you beat that.; 7:13 AM
API said...: NoVa - please tell me you hadn't gone to bed yet, instead of 3:16am ET was your wake up time?; 7:15 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Jurisdiction is wonderful thing.; 7:15 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Sweet, 97 and intermittent showers all day. Can I just walk around naked with a towel around my waist, so I can enjoy the sauna?; 7:28 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: API - sorry to let you down. I was actually thinking about giving a morning wake up call to the Hotties 20 minutes before NoVa posted, but decided the Hotties would think I'm crazy for being up that early. Or maybe just crazier.

I'll try to do better.; 7:42 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: btw, Hotties, there are only 81 days til kickoff!!!

That's 9 squared.; 7:44 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Sitting through a training class on zero sleep=epic battle; 8:02 AM
Ephemeral said...: Good luck staying aWake, Wake.; 8:16 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: You know what I do when I'm falling asleep in a situation like that? I think of Chick Fil A, Momma Gs, and other places that make me drool. It's pretty much torture, but keeps me awake.; 8:18 AM
WarEagleRK said...: E-bro,

Did you get a chance to check out Michael Franti? I watched most of his set online and it was great...I thought Kings of Leon were good too.; 8:23 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: HAPPY #81 FRANK SANDERS DAY!!!!; 8:42 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Happy Peter Frankenschmidt day!; 8:42 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Every day is Peter Frankenschmidt day!; 8:44 AM
E-Bro said...: Okay, I'm violating my HABOTN no fly policy real quick, but...

Wake...you'll be making a lot of dope arrests at Bonnaroo if you go. A lot.

P.S., I didn't inhale.

RK...Didn't get a chance to check out Michael Franti. I think he was either on before KOL or at about the same time. We only got there in time on Friday for KOL and anything after, which for me was The Flaming Lips.; 8:49 AM
ehyou said...: Kris Kristofferson got up and sang with John Prine. I can't believe I wasn't there. I'll probably never have a chance to see that again.; 8:56 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: E-bro,

Did you get my email?; 8:57 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Wow Kris with John would have been awesome. Kris is one of my favorite.; 8:59 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Songwriters... that should have been at the end of the last post.; 9:01 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: sorry PF, i can't condone today as 'PF Day' unless Bro. Jet degrees it so.; 9:09 AM
E-Bro said...: Peter...from Friday? Yes. Didn't see it until I got back from the Roo, though. No funny business, umm kay?

Okay, Portugal-Ivory Coast has begun. Time to go silent again.; 9:10 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: AU Takes home the gold!

This is copied from OA News:

PESARO, Italy — In the final days of the overseas trip, Auburn captured the gold championship of the four-day tournament last Friday.

The team reached the tournament final after defeating the Scavolini National B Team and the Brazilian Sports Club team last Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. The Tigers faced Scavolini in the championship and defeated the reigning Italy national club champions in four sets (17-25, 26-24, 25-11, 25-19).

Auburn was led by seniors Alyssa Davis and Morgan Johns. Davis finished with eight kills and had a .615 attack percentage, while Johns tallied 11 kills and had a .500 attack percentage. Junior Kelly Fidero was awarded Most Valuable Player of the tournament for her performances over the four days.; 9:23 AM
ehyou said...: Uh....what sport?; 9:27 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Happy Peter Frankenschmidt day!

I degree it so. Decree, too.; 9:31 AM
Jet said...: Executive Orders for June 15, 2010

The Pac-10, the Southeastern Conference and Nebraska have been added to the Axis of Evil.

(Don't mess with Texas.)

June 15 is hereby declared Peter Schmidtenfrank Day!

(Mission accomplished.); 9:32 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: ehyou,

Sounds like Volleyball. Not sure, though.; 9:32 AM
Jet said...: By the way, you're doin' a heck of a job, Petey.; 9:32 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: well, if G-Dub Jet declares it then by gosh it must be so!

don't mess with Texas....or PF!

HAPPY PETER FRANKENSCHMIDT DAY hotties!; 9:37 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: That's not exactly what he declared, Scottie.; 9:37 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: i just can't make you happy today can i?; 9:38 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Oh, I'm happy. It's Peter Frankenschmidt day, after all!; 9:40 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: yep, that was vball.; 9:41 AM
digger4au said...: I cannot celebrate a Peter Frankenschmidt day on a Jewish Holiday.

Oh it's not a Jewish Holiday

Well then happy Peter F day,

Go Lady Tigers!; 9:51 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: speaking of "Days", we're only 24 days away from that cherished Eurasion celebration known as "Irony Day."; 10:00 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I think Michael should do an Irony Day countdown of famous Eurasians, or maybe a daily body count of Uzbeks.; 10:19 AM
Seanzie said...: I'm going to start referring to the numbered conferences by their geographic regions going forward.

I propose:
Big Ten = Midwest Mediocrity
Big XII = Texas and the 9 Dwarves
Pac10 = Left Coast Leftovers; 10:22 AM
michael said...: Ha, THT is right. The first annual Irony Day is coming up, celebrating the time I accidentally locked myself out of Eurasia through some ironic circumstances.

Perhaps I should do an Ironic Men of Eurasia countdown or something.; 10:34 AM
ehyou said...: Another Spencer Hall jewel:

Bernstine in particular should be familiar to any of you who have taken a young, Ferrari-esque liver out on the intoxication highway and discovered your driving skills were not up to driving such a fine machine.; 10:35 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: i think they should re-name the Big 12 the Southwest Conference again. that should help with their 'tradishun'.; 10:36 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: "I can't guarantee..."
Comcast lady before she got cut off and told that I will accept nothing less than a guarantee of anything I request from now on. Seriously getting ridiculous.; 10:37 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: For Traditions sake, I think we should let the Ivies play for the championship this year.; 10:39 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: It's on my google calendar, Michael. I just assumed it was every Hottie's calendar!; 10:39 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: what about the 'sips?; 10:39 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: SWPNWC = Southwest plus northern weaklings conference; 10:40 AM
michael said...: I'm glad you remembered THT... it sounded vaguely familiar to me, but I had to go check the HABOTN history books to get the details.; 10:45 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: "HABOTN History books"

..is that a Time-Life series, or is it something I can get at Barnes & Noble.; 10:49 AM
Harrison said...: guess who's air conditioner in their house aint working...yep, mine; 10:51 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Well, at least you can watch TV without interruptions. I can't.; 10:54 AM
Jet said...: I hereby appoint Ehyou as Ambassador to Eurasia.

I think he'd look dapper in tails and a top hat with the ambassadorial red sash.

Michael, I hope you accept his credentials.; 10:54 AM
Harrison said...: yes, I can PF. Sweaty, uninterrupted television; 10:56 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Sounds like a porno.; 10:57 AM
michael said...: Harrison, when asking people to guess something, it is impolite to answer the question before others get a chance. I would have guessed it was your a/c, and I would have been right. You robbed me of that joy.; 10:57 AM
michael said...: Sure Jet, ehyou can be an ambassador. Sometimes we eat ambassadors on holidays (such as Irony Day), but if he is cool with that, then tell him to come on over.; 10:58 AM
digger4au said...: Bad news Harrison, bad timing which sounds like me. My air condition always goes out in hot weather and my heat in cold weather. Maybe it is because that is when we run the the hardest.; 10:58 AM
Harrison said...: i mailed you a letter about it anyway Michael. You should get it in a few days.; 10:59 AM
Harrison said...: happens almost every summer digger, we never have problems in the winter though and i know absolutely nothing about stuff like that; 10:59 AM
digger4au said...: It has been my experience that it is best to call the Heating/Air Condition man and save money in the long run.; 11:01 AM
michael said...: Harrison, you just gotta "think cool". It's all in your head. You are actually quite comfortable right now at your current house temperature. The heat does not bother you. Temperature is an object in the mind.; 11:03 AM
Harrison said...: we have a personal relationship with our a/c guy whether he likes it or not; 11:03 AM
michael said...: What is that supposed to mean? Have you raped your A/C guy, Harrison?; 11:07 AM
Harrison said...: define raped. i have called him out to our house many times after hours and i usually don't take no for an answer, his goofy ass aint fixed it yet...fix it and you dpon't ahve to come out here so much...is that rape??; 11:10 AM
CHB said...: Jabrian Niles has committed to AU.; 11:10 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: CH=B - there's a discussion on sexual assault and you come in here with that recruiting crap? Come on!

actually, Thanks!!!!!; 11:11 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: sweet.

NILES TO AU; 11:12 AM
CHB said...: sexual assault on Ac repair men or AU recruiting. I've got to go with recruiting every time.; 11:13 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: 2+BEASLEY!!!; 11:15 AM
CHB said...: This is a big get because we need to continue to make waves in the Mobile area.; 11:15 AM
michael said...: No Harrison, that does not fit within the definition of rape. You and your A/C reside in the "nuisance" category to your A/C guy. He just goes in there and tightens a couple of bolts and hope you call someone else the next time. You need to take a hint, man.; 11:17 AM
Jet said...: Michael ...

Just tell Ambassador Ehyou that you'd like to have him for dinner. Tell him that all ambassadors are welcomed by being placed in a vat of beer. He'll love it.; 11:19 AM
michael said...: Should we tell him the beer is boiling?; 11:20 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: we need a rudder; 11:22 AM
ehyou said...: Did you say beer? Count me in.; 11:23 AM
michael said...: A rudder makes for a boring uneventful ride, THT.; 11:25 AM
ehyou said...: I misplaced my sash, but I do have a monocle.; 11:25 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I was speaking metaphorically, of course, since I don't do boats.
Or onions... not that rudders have anything to do with onions. I just hate onions...I bet they were invented by a walmartian.; 11:27 AM
Unknown said...: Defensive end Jabrian Niles commits to #Auburn; 11:28 AM
Norm said...: Hey folks. Have any of you heard anything about supposed conference expansion? I overheard someone talking to another someone and I think that's what they were saying. I appreciate your always timely responses.; 11:31 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: expansion of what? your beer gut?; 11:34 AM
CHB said...: Niles is going to be a great player. He is a DE that used to play QB. He is one heck of an athlete. Can you say top 5 class...again.?; 11:35 AM
Scott M. Brannan said...: a former QB at DE? interesting.; 11:36 AM
Unknown said...: Niles is generally rated a 3 star, but he has a very impressive list of offers. Some of the video I have seen is pretty impressive, too. He looks very quick for a DE.; 11:43 AM
Wakeriderof87 said...: The players ratings usually change dramatically between now and signing day.; 11:50 AM
Unknown said...: Very true, and I am actually more interested in players that actually sign and show up on the field, which is what has been great so far with the 2010 class. At first the 2009 class looked okay considering the situation, but fell apart due to attrition, which has been our them for some time.

Give me a top 20 class where 90% of the players make it to the field and I am happy.; 12:06 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: AU gets a commitment and Homer is off watching futbol. Who do I call for a refund. Should I call PF's Comcast lady?; 12:06 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: of course, I can't get any work out of LGG Byron, who is also glued to that armless game.; 12:20 PM
CHB said...: You are correct SFC, his offer list includes the walmartians, Florida and USC among other. He is a 4* (80) according to ESPN. I really like the fact that he used to be a QB. He could be a physical freak with that size and athleticism.

Don't be surprised if we get another commitment this week.; 12:32 PM
Norm said...: You'll be happy to know that I had another Spicy Chicken from CFA today. This time, I added a packet of the hot sauce. I think it was an improvement on an already good product.; 12:34 PM
CHB said...: You'll be happy to know that I had 3 day old spaghetti. I love leftover pasta more than when it is fresh. Same for pizza.; 12:43 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I don't know what else to do. I took a potty break. I crashed the computer (actually, its WIndows, so it didn't need any help from me)... reboot and... nothing. I think I'm having withdrawals.; 12:44 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: THT, take all the methadone you can find and hit refresh in the morning.; 12:47 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: listen to Dr. HABOTN THT. i mean, he is a doctor and all.; 12:52 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: i had leftover pizza for lunch today. still hungry. i need a cup of coffee....bad.; 12:56 PM
Unknown said...: No sugar tonight in my coffee.
No sugar tonight in my tea.
No sugar to stand beside me.
No Sugar to run with me.

I feel much better.; 12:57 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: no sugar, eh.
great song, eh.

i also like share the land, eh; 1:01 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: Pour Some Sugar on Me.; 1:02 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Maybe you don't understand just how rich he is. In fact, I think I'd better put on a monocle.; 1:03 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: i saw the Post Burton Cummings Guess Who (aka BTO)in concert with opening acts of Wet Willie and Elvin Bishop. The opening acts were FANTASTIC. BTO stunk like a skunk.; 1:03 PM
ehyou said...: Forget the methadone and go for the mescaline.; 1:10 PM
ehyou said...: Clap for the Wolfman; 1:11 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: This is the worst kind of discrimination. The kind against me.; 1:13 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Let's face it, comedy's a dead art form. Tragedy, now that's funny.; 1:14 PM
ehyou said...: Blackmail is such an ugly word. I prefer "extortion". The 'X' makes it sound cool.; 1:18 PM
Honey said...: PF said "Tragedy, now that's funny."

Reminds me of the time I took my kids to see Othello. I was thinking what a good teaching parent I had been that season - we had seen plays, ballets, operas, symphonies, all kinds of cultural events. As we left Othello, Tylerson had this thoughtful look on his face. I questioned him as to what he was thinking, sure he would give me some marvelously deep thought about the play. "I'm just trying to think which of these things I've hated the worst." So much for exposing him to culture!; 1:18 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: ehyou - rather than send me trippin', I think Dr. Habotn was trying to treat my opioid-like HABOTN new thread addiction.
Plus, Dr. Habotn likes to prescribe drugs about which Warren Zevon sings.

Carmelita, hold me tighter,
I think I'm sinking down.
And I'm all strung out on HABOTN threads
on the outskirts of town.; 1:19 PM
Norm said...: Carmela - I miss her. I wish she hadn't run off with that dude j-z.; 1:26 PM
chip chip said...: an ol out of ga watts dantzler has announced he will choose between AU and uga on sunday. late father was ol at uga in 70s. i'd say AU has about 20% chance. he has lots of good stuff to say about AU, but his uga background is gonna be tough to overcome. says a lot AU was in his final two.; 1:29 PM
Norm said...: Doc HABOTN - I'm working from home today and F4* and Hot Wife are out doing stuff with another mother and her kids. I've already had the aforementioned lunch but I'm still a bit hungry, what should I do? We had some friends over for a cookout Saturday evening and I have some leftover brownies, Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla and Hershey's Chocolate Syrup. Would you recommend such a combination for what ails me?; 1:31 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Chip Chip,
I'd say you're right. Especially since he's moved the announcement date up from his birthday in November to Father's Day in order to honor his father, who died just months ago. You don't honor your father by snubbing his alma mater.; 1:33 PM
ehyou said...: Do you enjoy torturing me norm, while at work and without access to such delicacies?; 1:37 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: "a cookout Saturday evening and I have some leftover brownies, Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla and Hershey's Chocolate Syrup."

Dr. Habotn HIGHLY recommends such therapy. However, Dr. Habotn suggests trying the brownies, ice cream, and chocolate syrup without grilling them.; 1:37 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: wait Norm, this cook-out was saturday and you STILL have such supplies at your disposal? what's your problem homes?; 1:40 PM
Harrison said...: i will not have air conditioning until tomorrow...suck, suck ,suck; 1:42 PM
CHB said...: Norm, in honor of THT you should sprinkle some dried onions on top.; 1:44 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Hmmm, wife got paid today. Wonder if I have to cook tonight.; 1:44 PM
CHB said...: Scottie, I watched 1/5 recored episodes of Justified last night. It was the "Missing Hat" episode. Pretty good stuff.; 1:45 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: yup, great episode. i love that he just knows he's gonna take a whoopin' at the bar but he's all in anyways.; 1:47 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: speaking of FX, RESCUE ME starts back June 29th. sweet!; 1:48 PM
Norm said...: Doc - it did make for a messy grilling situation, thank goodness we had plenty of supplies. The combination did the trick, I believe I'll survive for another few hours.

ehyou - yes, yes I do.

scottie raylan - we rarely have such goods in the house so I tend to ration them out to myself over prolonged periods.

chb - onions? Too late. Maybe next time.; 1:50 PM
CHB said...: Never watched Rescue Me. Anyone watch Dark Blue on TNT? Good show and should be coming back on soon.; 2:03 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Anyone ever see ALF? Great show.; 2:04 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: I have some memories of Alf. Not bad.; 2:05 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I LOVED Alf.

Alf - I nearly coughed up my spleen.

Wifey - what?

Hubby - you don't want to know. it involves organ displacement.

How could you not love an alien that eats cats?; 2:10 PM
Norm said...: Nanu-nanu.; 2:12 PM
CHB said...: PF, You strike me as a Golden Girls fan.; 2:18 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Thank you for being a friend.; 2:18 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: i watched 2 episodes of the Golden Girls with Mrs. Scottie last nite. i can't even lie. it was funny stuff.; 2:22 PM

Jet: I was over Unger, and you were under Dunn.; 2:32 PM
Unknown said...: I just saw a tweet saying officials don't know how long the oil spill chemicals will remain toxic. Is it just me, or is I don't know not news?; 2:40 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I think "I don't know" is news here. I had assumed that some of the stuff they were putting in to treat it was not toxic, much less long term. Now, I know it is, and may be for a while. If that wasn't reported, we wouldn't know that.; 2:47 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: ...and they should have a guess. It's their job.; 2:47 PM

Tar Heel Tiger said...: it's EDT puppet hour. I wonder what happened in the soccer stadiums during South African puppet hour.; 3:12 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Mayhem. Puppets are everywhere in RSA. They bite off both hands, because they figure soccer fans don't need them.; 3:18 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Those vuvuzelas horns are the puppets' call to battle.; 3:21 PM
API said...: I was kinda a Mannix fan.; 3:25 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: definitely liked Mannix better than McCloud or Barnaby Jones. Uncle Jed shoulda stayed retired after the Hillbillies.

Jet said...: Jet's Authoritative Declarative Statement o' the day:

Given the high-mindedness the University of Texas displayed during the realignment hullaballoo by saying it wanted to be a part of the deep waters of the academically superior Pac-10 rather than the shallow end of the academic gene pool in the SEC, I assert that some enterprising reporter(s) will be investigating the academic performances of athletes at the University of Texas to see if they can swim, so to speak.; 3:32 PM
wtc said...: CIncy-rememeber I where I told you I thought the SEC baseball tourney would be within 2 years? Guess what, it is close to being a done deal. No more Hoover.; 3:32 PM
Jet said...: The Rockford Files!

Police Woman! (Angie Dickinson, grrrr!); 3:33 PM
wtc said...: CHB-The only way Dantzler sees Au is when UGA visits to play AU. mom may be wrong, but she says he is UGA. He said he was making his announcement on Father's Day in honor of his father. That has to mean he is going to UGA, sight. Since his dad lettered there in 72-73.; 3:34 PM
CHB said...: I hope they don't move it from Hover. That's all the bham area has left.; 3:35 PM
wtc said...: for those UAt fans, Big Lots has a plastice replica of the BSC trophy on sale for Father's Day. $3.99 per trophy.; 3:35 PM
CHB said...: yeah I don't think Dantzler is coming, but there are 2-3 others that are really close to pulling the trigger.; 3:36 PM
