They should have changed the picture to Macho Man Randy Savage. Then it would have been kosher.


Maybe they could have gotten a sponsorship deal with Slim Jim.

I want to say the Seminoles went out and got the blessing from the actual Seminole descendants. Really nice way of giving a big finger to the ultra-pc NCAA.

6000 attendance against Rice in the Cotton Bowl in the 70s. I remember a game listening on the radio when we tied NO. 1 Purdue in the Cotton Bowl befiore a partisan crowd of 15000 when I was in grade school in 64. We had 12000 I think tonight.

No Kool Aid here. I've seen our program gradually get better with Pfil.
I thought this would be a down year with our defense, and you roll dice
on close games.

Point is, unless Orsini can find someone (under cover before the firing)
who will NO DOUBT BE BETTER than hasBennett, we should keep him.


Thank You, because Darth must be 10 years old and has no knowledge of the history of SMU athletics. Our soccer team was the best in the nation last year playing in frot of their family memebers only! This is SMU!

I think the Sioux gave their permission too, but U of North Dakota still has to change. So much for a big finger to the NCAA.
