Just finished watching it on the LHN. Everyone knows the story, Texas 37-27 over Nebraska. Texas was a 10 point underdog. Had NU won (they were defending NC) they were poised to play for another NC in their bowl game against, I think, FSU. I think Mackovic, sadly, will almost always be...

What happened with her; where did she go? She was a good poster. I miss her.

Just have been watching "The Season", about UT's run to the NC in 2005.  Game after game, the big plays  were receptions by Billy Pittman.  He came through BIG TIME in game winning plays, in many games.  Was he the MVP of that season, considering how good Vince played? Whatever your answer...

on the NFL Channel. From 8-9, was all about Roger Staubach. From 9-10 was about Dick Butkus and Gale Sayers, both with the Chicago Bears. It was the best 2 hours I've spent watching any show regarding football, college or pro, maybe...ever. It was remarkable. Hope some of you watched it as...

Just finished watching "The Alamo", 1960 flick with John Wayne and Richard Widmark. While that version of the battle is not considered the  most historically accurate, watching it still stirs my emotions.  Studying the topic online, I have read that the "Hollywood money" people who were paying...

There have been numerous movies made about The Alamo.  All Texans know the story; 185 men fighting for Texas independence, opposed by Santa Anna and several thousand Mexican soldiers determined to put their rebellion down.  The three movies that come to mind are: 1960 version with John Wayne as...

Former Texas RB James Saxton passes away at age 74 One of the all-time Texas greats passed away this morning.

"The NFL did not draft a Texas Longhorn for the first time since 1937.  The streak had been the longest in the country". 

They got no business hanging with the Spurs, a much better team, but played tough tonight and forced a Game 7 on Sunday. That 4th quarter was intense!

Sorry, I need a break from the stress of work and worrying about 2015 football commits. Though I am 100 percent commited to excellence in both regards. I was fortunate to see Lynyrd Skynyrd twice. In Austin, at Memorial Auditorium in 1976 and again on July 4, 1977 in Tulsa, Oklahoma at "Willie...
