in Non-Texans Game Threads
Email
PrintSince it looked like Tony, jtr, and chuckiepoo had such a great time talking college football last night, we thought we'd try a College Football Open Thread today and see how it goes! Let your college homer- and hater-ism hang in the thread. Here's some info from NinersNation to get you started.

First game at the new stadium
My wife is from north of Denton (and went to UNT). Very strange looking endzone bleachers at the new stadium. Supposed to resemble eagle’s wings or something like that. And it is so hard to take any school that uses Philly’s mascot and colors seriously.

Yeah I was part of the last batch that graduated from North Texas State University...
When I was there the radio station was KNTU…
Apparently they chose not to re-align the stations call letters to match the switch to the University of North Texas.

My Ol lady fell asleep and I had control of the computer and TV last night hahahahaha. She usually kicks me off and gets on facebook at night thats why I usually disappear on open threads but she has a Birthday party to go to today and I already told her all bets are off tomorow so she’s going to show mercy on me and go visit her Mother tomorow. I’ll think I’ll keep her ;)

Johnny Bench had massive hands
Could hold like 6 baseballs with his ridiculously large fingers. Also, I think it’s a reference to Malory’s vag looking like a beat-up old catcher’s mitt.

“Johnny Bench called. [He wants his catcher’s mitt back.]” Though the reference is even funnier when you know Johnny’s hands were enormous, which they reference with Lana’s “Johnny Bench-ian fingers” in a later episode.

Penn State going for it on 4th and 1 on the 30; They’ve some how used all of their first half time outs in the first 5 minutes.
Relaying the calls from the box to the field has been an issue.
HC OC and DC all up in the box I believe.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Onside kick!!! Tenn recovers.

So needless to say I will probably get kicked off the computer in a little while. Thanks again BFD for the NCAA Football open thread. I will be on later but if not by God is my wittiness I will be on for the open thread tomorrow for the Texans game.
Thanks for hanging in there jtr. Been a little preoccupied.

Have I ever told you the story about my old basset hound Bo outwitting the guy with the 155 IQ? We had a house-guest who is extremely intellectually gifted.
There was garlic bread and an untended plate involved.
Bo was about 13 by that time and could barely get his head up on the ottoman but he smelled that garlic bread and it was GONE before anyone could react…
We were all laughing so hard our only concern was that he didn’t choke trying to wolf it down.

I want another.
The deal with my wife was originally three kids or three dogs. We have two dogs, two kids, and she refuses to acquiesce to an additional dog. (Neither of us wants another kid. Kids suck. I kind of hate them.)
The Two-Day Hangover @ SBN Houston | Twitter
Yeah, I keep wanting to get our boy-dog laid...
…but my wife wisely knows that could only lead to a third dog being around here and we’ve already had a 4 dog herd and it was hard to adequately spread around the affection. Two is fairly manageable.
