I hate the University of Texas. Seriously.

For weeks and weeks there has been speculation on the death of the Big 12.   Nebraska going to Big 10 wher they have a chance of becoming big cheese again.  Tech, A&M, OU, Okie Lite, Colorado and the evil empire were all headed to the Pac 10.  Yes, the one in California even though we are in the middle of the country.  Baylor, Kansas, K State, Mizzou & Iowa State left behind to fend for themselves.  It's all about $$$  and lets all forget about the fact that IT'S JUST A GAME!!   Because it's not.  It's a business.

So all of our fates depend on UT's decision.  They are top cows.  If they go, we all go.  If they stay, we stay.  So we find out today we stay.  UT gets it's own TV network and the largest parts of the revenue pie.  We are now the Big 12 minus 2.   Colorado went for the Pac 10 and Nebraska went to the Big 10.  It's not a done deal for us because the official announcement has not been made but Gerald Myers, the athletic department and Tech administration don't have the balls to tell UT to go screw the Aggies, like everyone normally does.   So we will go on expected to be grateful to 3rd or so in a league that UT owns.

I read an Aggie blog that suggested Tech should go to the Mountain West because they could never compete with UT and TAMU.  I realize Tech got cocky and the Aggies actually beat us last season but until then I did not realize the Aggies even still played football.    Did the blogger sleep through the last 15 years or so?  Everyone owns Aggie ass.     Then...ready for a laugh??   TAMU wants to to to the SEC!!!    Florida?  Tennessee?  Alabama?   If I had smilies, this is where the little guy ROTFL would be inserted.   It would be fun to watch though.

So it looks like status quo with Tech...settling in UT's shadow.

I put the little button above to honor Vince Young, strip club arrestee and the rest of the UT players who over the years have graced the courthouses of Austin on a regular basis.   Book 'Em Horns!!
