Hyman has taken himself out as well.

TCU enjoyed losing for 50 years... we have a long way to go to feel your pain.Originally posted by DallasFrog:
This is really working you guys up, hope you enjoy losing...
And by the way, why don't you try winning a game before you starting bashing what bowl game we're playing in, mind you the 6th one in a row now...
Careful, you're also ripping your own team there, since your beloved lizards barely slithered out of Dallas with a win. I'm not saying we were the better team -- the scoreboard said TCU won, so .... congratulations, I guess. But tell us you walked out of Ford Stadium thinking "hell yes - that's an 11-1 team." Didn't think so.Originally posted by PurpleBacker:

Give me a break. TCU came out completely uninspired in a completely meaningless game, and SMU played as well as they have all season. And TCU still won. If you can't see the large disparity between the two teams, you're delusional. And if Hyman really wanted the job in Georgia, he could have had it. Just like he could have had the Kansas job, which he turned down, and just like he could have had the Tennessee job, which he turned down.Originally posted by Horseshoe:

There isn't a PonyFan alive who didn't swallow a little pride this year. But if you're sticking your chest out over the lizards' performance at the end of the year, frankly, that's a little sad. You'll much more reason to crow if you beat Boise State, because they're a damn good team. [/b]

So by the numbers PurpleBacker has provided, SMU has an all-time winning percentage of 42.75, and TCU has an all-time winning percentage of 42.55.Originally posted by PurpleBacker:
SMU - 227-291-13
TCU - 237-305-15
Not such a stretch to "feel our pain" huh?
Um, ok. If you say so.Originally posted by Frog81:

Not to get mired in details, but I didn't take Horseshoe's comment as saying YOU had said TCU was too good to be in the same conference with us. But we have heard numerous other TCU fans make such claims. Based on your statements, I wouldn't expect you to say such a thing, whether or not you believe it to be true. You make some good points.Originally posted by PurpleBacker:
Uh, no Horeshoe. You didn't hear me make any argument that TCU was too good to be in a conference with SMU. In fact, should you read my previous post, I said I hope Bennett brings you guys back because it would be more fun to play a consistently competitive SMU team.
The truly inane argument was from Stangesq who was trying to say that somehow TCU was such a loser for the last 50 years and that SMU was so much better that you had a long way to go to "feel our pain". My point was that you have no basis to feel so superior with a .2% advantage in W/L.
Just the facts ...
