On the BCS Title Game: TEXAS almost
WON!!! The
fact that Texas did not give up after Alabama took out McCoy... What does that tell you about a Champion? Forget the score
and the hype and just look at the game and tell me who deserves to be #1. I went to the Orange Bowl to support Georgia
Tech 2 days prior to the Texas Alabama game and I saw no glimpses of resolve or championship in either Iowa or Georgia Tech.
It was a sad excuse
for a game and Coach Paul Johnson was seriously not only out-coached but also showed he has no grasp of the dynamics
of his offensive team. He has a huge stable of potent runners but... Dwyer blocks for no one while everyone blocks for
him. Marcus is the fastest back and Dwyer's key blocker. Funny how Dwyer never blocks for Marcus. No it's NOT
funny is it? Tech deserved to lose because the coach failed to recognize the problem and make adjustments. Texas
on the other hand was dealt a huge blow, put a rookie into the game who might as well have been 56 year old Ron Means
and continued to fight unwinnable odds to compete. That tells me all I need to know and my chest is sticking out with
pride probably more than it would be if we had won, I kid you not. The game was OVER before the half and still we almost
won.Gilbert did great considering the hand he was dealt and the on-the-job-training showed he has a fantastic learning
curve. If Alabama is number 1 then Texas is number 1.001. We showed more heart and resolve. A number 1 team
would not almost lose. Hello!

Hook
'Em Horns (unless it's Texas vs GeorgiaTech!)
MY 1st CAR  My 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda was factory HOT with a ThermoQuad 340,
hood pins, painted ORANGE GRILLE and double bump hood scoops. The exterior was HEMI ORANGE with a WHITE vinyl
top and the interior was ORANGE vinyl seats with BLACK carpet, door trim, headliner and dash with wood
accents. It had a console with Slap-Stick auto transmission. My dad bought it for me from McMorris Ford's used car lot
in the summer of 1972. It was the hottest car then and very desireable as an antique now. A rare beauty it was the ONLY
year that a Barracuda had GILLS in the fenders and double headlights. Like now (probably) I didn't apprecite what I already
had. I traded it in 1974 for a VW Sunbug. I am still mad at myself over that stupid move and have been searching for
MY CAR (or one exactly like it) since 1996. BTW I already found my 1978 Pace Car. |
