With another Saturday approaching, does anyone else dread...

Post by austinponie »

Hearing/ seeing Mark May, Lou Holtz, Lee Corso, Jesse Palmer and other grown men blathering, dissecting, hypothesizing, gyrating and pontificating about football??

Obviously good points and observations that I wouldn't normally pick up on, but Goddam it's endless.

Don't mind the game announcers that much, but I'm slowly turning into "no volume guy"...

Just wondering if I have any fellow gameday mute button operators....

this ain't a great weekend of college football. Miami v Florida St-a battle of unbeatens but Miami is an unbelievable 22 point underdog. Tech v Oklahoma St is potentially a huge Big 12 game but not much national interest.

A&M v UTEP
Baylor off (right?)
SMU off
Texas (Longhorn Network so who cares)
TCU v West Virginia
UH (already played)
Rice (already played)
OU off

If I had a gun with two bullets, and I was in a room with Hitler, Bin Laden and Jesse Palmer, I would shoot Palmer twice.

We can watch A&M/UTEP. Probably get a good idea of what next year's A&M QB can do about 7 minutes into the game.

Granted Hitler and Bin Laden are already dead. No use shooting them again :lol:

Shoot out the window to let some fresh air in, it would probably stink in that room.

Made the move to switch the volume off a few years ago. Cutting out all the repetitive cliches, jokes, agendas and rhetoric really enhanced my viewing experience.

Yeah - - Palmer's Drakkar Noir would contribute to the stink as well.

You didn't list Herbie - but I hate that guy even worse than Palmer. I wonder if he gets his hair and his teeth bleached at the same place?

That had to be one of the funniest moments in sports broadcasting. The reaction of the other guys is priceless.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

SMU could have probably had a nice TV audience this weekend in Texas at least if we had played a decent opponent. Nuthin' else to do.
