Donovan...I too was raised on hose water. Too lazy to go into the house and get a glass I guess.

High class folks had hoses...we were spigot drinkers. It kept you limber.

I'm not a coffee drinker either. I do drink a couple of brewed beverages, but not coffee.

Tea I drink; my taste buds will not allow coffee anywhere near my tongue.

Alcohol, I do not even contemplate.

If WVU is invited with the caveat that each and every Big East school must sign a "no sue waiver", could WVU get that waiver commitment from BE schools?

And, considering that the Big East has sued the ACC on their expansion, I'd think that this is what the SEC would demand.


No way WVU would get no suit waiver, no way! If they wanted to go to the SEC, they'd have to work harder than that.
But I a not sure it is a good move. Why be a middle of the pack team when you can be the big dog!

From the tap most of the time myself...sometimes it had a real handle instead of vise-grips. But the neighbor had a hose, and I can tell you it tastes much better from the tap. I wasn't lazy, not at all...but my mom as well as others didn't like kids running in and out of the house. Plus I have always been a pig of a sweater and I didn't want to go in and sweat all over the place. (I was much sweeter back then. )

I am with you 100%. I don't drink coffee and I can't get past the terrible smell of alcohol to get it anywhere near my mouth. Now a tall glass of ice tea in the summer is nice.

No kidding, you'd have to be independent for that to be legal.

I really don't understand why the SEC would take A&M. That's one more person sharing the money in TV, and one more sharing the money from the bowl games. Isn't it typical for an SEC team to be left out of the BCS games because of the 2 team per conference limit? Even if they went to something like the Cotton Bowl, wouldn't that just push all the other SEC teams down a bowl, where they would really just be adding the money from the smallest bowl played by and SEC team?

Then, if A&M leaves and OU leaves too, why would Texas want to leave? Seems like they'd rack up a BCS berth on an annual basis. Are there any BCS rules about if the Big 12 dwindled to 6 teams, they'd lose their automatic bid?

Yeah. I imagine that the BCS would bust Texas for playing in the Big Six....if they stay at 9, there will be no problems since that mirrors the Big East.

How dare any Big 12 school stand in the way of SEC dominance!! :wink: :wink:
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.
