I believe a Golden Hurricane is in reference to oil shooting out of the ground. That is not a natural disaster, but one of nature's blessings to anyone who has drilled the well. All tree huggers though would probably view the same as a natural disaster. The porn reference is to a "shower" which to some is also exciting. To each their own.
Actually, the name came about because someone made a comment about the team "roaring through opponents" in practice and the coach came up with the idea of calling them the "Golden Tornadoes." However, he found out that the name was taken by Georgia Tech and so after a vote by the team, they decided to call themselves the "Golden Hurricane."

That is perhaps the most ignorant post in the history of posting.
Enlighten me JT. Is the Mayor no longer the leader of a city???? If you are saying that because she does not operate in a strong mayor style of city government that she has no power then I understand your post although misguided. She had all the power in getting the cowboys here. Is avoiding leadership positions not a good way to avoid blame???? Is that ignorant? I think I'm dead on with that one buddy. Was my post sarcastic???Oh yea. I don't think she is the leader at all, but she certainly has power. She is the reason she has less power. Don't ask. It's obviously too difficult for you to comprehend.
I'll try. Mayor of Dallas is a figurehead, for sure, but really nothing more than a glorified council member. Mayor has no "power" as you are trying to use it, assumed or otherwise--making 1/14 of the decisions left to city government is completely accurate. For day to day operational matters, the city manager has all the real power in Dallas.
I would like to think that maybe ThadFilms next projects would be based on a shetland pony that eats radioactive feed and grows in a 328' tall glowing red Mustang. Perunazilla would then proceed to roam around Texas destroying various SWC opponents stadiums. Of course the Texas A&M cadets would be called upon to stop the rampage but would all be smashed into the ground while attempt to kill Perunazilla with their sabres.
The final battle would be fought in downtown Fort Worth against a radio active toad. Perunazilla would emerge victorious, Fort Worth would lay in ruin and nobody would notice. All we need are a few mascots, Peruna, some SMU coeds, and lots of balsa wood and we would have a great movie. Or at least a minute of entertainment on Mustang Vision.
Oh yeah, Peruna squishes Laura Miller first. Just can't stand that woman. Maybe she could get squished in a scene with that idiot mayor from New Orleans as they argue whether to evacuate or not.
Houston city officials just announced the Houston Hurricane Evacuation Plan:
• Hispanics use I-10 West to San Antonio
•
• Cajuns use I-10 East to Lafayette
•
• Rednecks use 59 North to East Texas
•
• Republicans fly Continental to Washington DC
•
• Yankees and Democrats use 45 South to Galveston
•
• Longhorn fans use 290 West to Austin
•
• Aggies use 610 Loop
