    Folks the end is upon us.

    The Aggie basketball team continues to win in spite of a lack of great guard play.
    I am afraid my kids will be the death of us all.
    If they somehow make it through the next few games against ranked teams they will surely move into the top 10.
    That will signal the Horsemen to move in.

    It almost makes me want them to drop one.
    Almost.

    :wink:

    Scott, I'm with you....enough football. It's basketball season.....

    Your kids are looking good...I'm thinking that a certain somebody on here is in fear of a visit to Reed Arena by his cagers. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.....

    Fear a trip to College Station? What's not to like, the small timey atmosphere, lack of good food, women who don't shave their lip or legs, nah it's a piece of cake!

    That last bit was a symptom of women in Austin... not sure about the rest.

    What is this thing called basketball season??? :?: In the south football season is all year long and there is nothing else... 8)

    True story: A salesman moved down from Indiana to SW Florida and was amazed that nobody talks or cares about basketball down here, he said that its football this football that...He said that was the biggest surprise to him in his move down south and one he never expected because of how important basketball was in his home of Indiana....

    Ralph,

    If that salesman was a Purdue or IU fan, his reaction is understandable. :lol:

    Ah... so I can safely assume your customary "friendly" refs will be in attendance?

    Not to mention we can afford them!! :) Has your ath dept repaid it's loan from the school yet? :twisted:

    I'm sure you'll be happy to learn that the Longhorn Network will be available soon on your cable/sat system. Longhorns will get 300M over 20 years from ESPN, add that to our B12 money and Bowl Money and we can afford the best refs money can buy!! :twisted:

    Yep, we're aware.

    Much speculation that this will only hasten the already certain demise of the Big 12-2.

    We might have gone from years to months of duration on life support.
    Guess we'll see...

    I'm not suprised that the Horns had a convincing win, that Ag's were due for a loss after 13 straight wins and going on the road against a good Longhorn team was perfect time. Interesting we got off to an excellent start, but even Bob Knight was complaining about the officals during that hot start. So I guess we did bring "our" officals! :twisted:

    I also won't be suprised if when we go to College Station that the roles are reversed.

    I'm not surprised either.
    Since we returned to competitive ball about 6 years ago, this series has gone to the home team almost every game.

    We'll take care of you in College Station. 8)
