A special message to the Longhorns? & more

W hat does an upside down Texas Longhorn logo mean?

October 17, 2008: The Oklahoma baton twirler poses to show off her upside down longhorn on her uniform during an NCAA rivalry Football game known as the Red River Rivalry between the Texas Longhorns and the Oklahoma Sooners at the Cotton Bowl Stadium in Dallas, TX Texas defeated Oklahoma 16-13.

And yes, that was just an excuse to run that photograph. On to some items of interest.

The Sports Business Journal reported on the gifts bowl participants will receive. This has become a big deal. According to the report, “Players used to get off the bus and say, ‘Where’s my gear?’” said Jon Cooperstein of Davene Inc., a Memphis-based promotions company that brokered gift deals for 14 of this year’s 34 bowl games.” And you can understand why. The gifts are very nice. For playing in this year’s national championship game, the players will receive: Sony gift suite with Trek and Garmin, Fossil watch, New Era 59Fifty hat, Ogio Politan laptop pack. According to the Sports Business Journal report, “Product details are provided as they were available. Most watches, rings, clothing and luggage are custom-made with the bowl logo. Gift suites are set up as private events in which game participants, and often bowl VIPs, are given an order form and allowed to select a gift, or gifts, up to a value that is predetermined by each specific bowl, not to exceed the NCAA limit of $500 per person.” Almost every bowl is covered including the PapaJohns.com Bowl and the Outback Bowl.

    I have no idea what the upside down logo means, aside from the fact that it gives you a reason to publish a photo of an attractive woman.

    HOOK’EM HORNS!

    Insert the Bammer rammer-jammer hammer into Nicky Satan’s ass and pound the dirty, cheating, classless Crimson TURD into the California Turf.

    To the Bammer Moron Nation, your lack of class showed true with the rammer-jammer cheer after the game. As always, you are a low-class bunch of idiots!

    Yes it was very classless of Saban to take a knee as opposed to hanging forty on Meyer. Considering what a class act Meyer is (see Georgia time outs) I am sure he would have taken the knee as well.

    FUCK YOU IVOL!!!

    It’s a shame that you have to come on this beloved site and spew your vomit that you can’t say at your home. Maybe your wife has that ball and chain so tight on your ass you can’t breathe so you come here to “vent”.

    I hope your wife is bent over like the Texas cheerleaders over a desk of her superiors while you’re at the workplace. Hope she likes it too. FUCK YOU you piece of shit — go dick around on your own orange boards —

    Your punk ass needs to be worried about Virginia Tech kickin’ that ass up and down the Georgia Dome (Peach Bowl in case your dumb ass didn’t know) — — that’s right —

    The Georgia Dome — a place where your team has VERY LITTLE experience being at. FUCK YOU IVOL AND VOL NATION PERIOD!!!

    The classless Bammer Morons are making my point for me!

    HOOK’EM HORNS!

    Uhmm — go back and look at your posts — and you have the nerve to talk about class. Whatever — I should of never stooped down to YOUR level — that’s somewhere in between the crud you wipe out of your eyes in the morning and pet dander in a vacuum cleaner.
