OT even more and more limited. My grandson's soccer team won 6 or 7 to 2 today and he played well. :D

Pulaski Academy is the school that has a coach who never punts. He believes you have 4 downs and you should use them all. He literally never punts. His school does very well. I know nothing about their QB however.

I was actually roomed with a LG who went there. That coach is mad but very popular. Everything stated is true from what I have heard... but they win.

My silver lining theory is that the green kevlar helmet inserts are affecting the players' and coaches' brains in a pro-green way which is why we got destroyed by Baylor and UNT. This is the real problem, not June's shirt color.

My daughter's softball team scored 8 more points in their first game than SMU has in their first two. At least I got to see one team I care about play like they give a [deleted].

My theory for the year is that JJ is trying to achieve a new milestone: he's proven he can restore a program to respectability; now he's proving he can bring it up AND tear it back down again before he goes. Well done, coach. Well done.

My own personal silver lining is that I moved out of state this summer, so less chances for me to watch this [deleted] show in person.

Last Friday night was an example of the Pulaski coaches approach. They did not recover an on side kick in eight attempts but converted eight of eleven fourth downs. A HP classmate of mine in Dallas who has followed the program for fifty years said the the Pulaski QB reminded of Matthew Stafford in passing accuracy but did not have so big an arm. I would think he is on some college lists.

I forgot to mention the numerous onside kick attempts. Not sure if he does it every time but does so very often at least.

The beer at Apogee was ice cold.

I wasn't as hot as the lady in front of me wearing jeans and a sweater.

Leaving in the third qtr gave us a chance to sample some of Sneaky Pete's finest.

Yikes RT @LoriSchmidt: Only two games, but right now only SMU has lost more yards (109) to opponents' tackles-for-loss than Ohio State (87).

Our uniforms look better than last year. My expectations are already so incredibly low that I can't possibly be disappointed by the result of any game for the rest of this year. My college team looks so incompetent that the Cowboys actually look competent by comparison.

The downside is that now with the bigger "SMU" lettering, everyone was able to see who UNT was embarrassing.
