Hopefully they take off the JJ foundation stickers for this game. Having the skull/crossbones/crossed swords next to these stickers might give some the wrong impression
The donkey's name is Kiki.

On a side note, anybody need a patent attorney?

I'm not one to get all sappy or overly patriotic, but I love this gesture.

RSfan- While I respect your right to voice your opinion I feel this is not the proper time or venue to do so. You can always start an OT forum to state your political views if you care to..

With his role of bringing the truth of Run 'n Shoot to the masses, would you say June Jones is the Alex Jones of football?

I think JJ ordered a 'stand down' or a false flag at TAMU last week which allowed us to lose and will set us up for the rest of the season. We picked up a 4-5 Star QB the very next day as a result of the loss, so it worked. i love conspiracy theory rabble rousers.....

From Jeff R as they will wear assorted names:

Jeff Reinebold:
IN HONOR OF THE FIREFIGHTERS LOST IN THE TERRORIST ATTACKS ON 9/11 EACH SMU FOOTBALL PLAYER WILL WEAR A SPECIAL STICKER ON THE BACK OF HIS HELMET WITH THE NAME A FALLEN HERO...IT IS OUR SMALL PART IN RECOGNIZING THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE MADE ON 9/11 BY SOME OF THE WORLDS FINEST...REMEMBER - ALWAYS REMEMBER...PONY UP!

Actually, please don't. This is not a political board, and there are countless other boards out there for those looking for a place to discuss politics.
Thanks

What's the difference between a terrorist attack and a cow?

You stop milking a cow after ten years.
