Tradin in the freezin cold for summer weather all year round
Hi guys,
As a Packer fan, I hope he stays retired. But if he chooses to play again and wants to be in a cold climate, that kinda limits his choice of teams don't it?
Having grown up in Fort Worth during the sixties, there were two teams I learned to hate! The dallas cowpatties and the texas longhornies! LOL
The time to be cut loose comes to all athletes eventually.
The ol clock don't stop ticking on us!!!
I know TCU very well my friend. My late sister graduated there in 1960 and my late father was a season ticket holder from WW 2 until about 1979.
I spent a lot of saturday nights watching people beat the shit out of the frogs. I root for Oklahoma. I had two friends from high school play for them and I started following them in 1972. Had season tickets until two years ago, whn my health started to fail and i just didn't feel like going anymore.
I saw two of OU's National championships in person and have been to all but one of the major bowl games.
Texas yes, Nebraska, not so much.
Do you get down to Austin to the games?
I think the old SWC and Big 8 were better conferences than the Big 12.
How about you? I feel that way because you played everybody, in boith leagues, and had a trhe champion.
Believe it or not, for years the bugaboo for OU was Missouri. They never were good enough to get past both Nebraska and OU in the same season, but they always managed to beat one of us!
