WHINING about the war? I assume you don't know anyone serving over there. It's not a political party thing when someone dies.

If anything, you sound like a Republican whining about losing the election.

The new rivals guy has to be better than that other site, which slowed down because they ran out of fifth-string long snappers to profile. Neither site will ever match up to this one, though, so no - it's not worth it, either.

Re: More numbers from the weight room

• Cole Beasley : Maybe the most impressive of the group, if only because at his listed 171 pounds, he's more than 100 pounds lighter than Smith and Elizee ... and still squatted 500 pounds. Is there an inside joke here I don't know about?

Any time you're denying tenure to a bunch of professors or teachers, you're doing something right. However, I can imagine that would get'em riled up for sure Tell that to people who try to raise a family on a teacher's or professor's salary, knowing that the next superintendent or university ...

:D

I hear there's a coach on campus already who knows a thing or two about teaching QBs. He might not be able to throw it as far as Aikman, but there's also no evidence to suggest Aikman knows how to coach. Good idea, but I'd stick with Coach Jones.

Keylon is the quietest, most unassuming guy I know, and the hardest-working football player I know. If ANYONE deserves a crack at NFL success, it's him.

You're going to have a heart attack if you whine and cry all summer long. Coach Graham is doing a nice job at Rice, and they're a "hot" story right now. Pat them on the back, if you want, but you've got to stop bad-mouthing Coach Bennett. He's being brought back for another year, regardless of who ...

Re: Highly Sought OLM Sets Visit To SMU

If those measurements you have for this OL are for real, he sounds like a great place to start when adding to the offensive line. There's two starters (Reindl, Harris) graduating this year, right?

Re: Congratulations to Keylon Kincade

When Keylon left for SMU, we all thought he'd do well, but I doubt even the most crazy fan would think he would have accomplished as much as he has. What a great career he's had!

Re: Here comes McCown

Maybe, maybe not. We held Fresno's to NFL-future receivers to one catch. Combined. This defense isn't getting near the attention it deserves, and Jim Gush deserves a hell of a lot of credit for the way the secondary played Saturday.

Interesting way to look at it. Not likely, but interesting.
