But this is 3 in a row. thats an eternity in texas football. For the talent, the brand, the money at this school, thats enough. Macks just not hungry anymore. he should have retired in 2009.
Manny Diaz was never prepared for B12 spread offenses. Total bust.
It starts to impact recruiting, and that can't happen here.
umm...this is me as a hardcore fan, irrespective of any politics.

(28,860 posts)I haven't seen any Romney signs at all.
However, just a way further north into Williamson
County, and things change in favor of Romney.
That sucks!

(11,243 posts)Knocked on 30 doors talked the 12 strong Obama supporters and got them up to speed on early voting in NC. It was GREAT to talk to regular Democrats for once. They are not following every single poll and analyzing every breath and grimace in every debate. They ARE excited about voting and excited about the President. These are the unlikely voters too. The ones who are either newly registered or have voted inconsistently in the past. Great day. We can win this!

(3,773 posts)I haven't seen ANY Romney signs. The closest thing in my neighborhood is a big, poorly-painted "Obama Must Go: Vote 2012" sign. Getting rid of the Pres isn't the same thing as endorsing the other guy, IMO. And I think I've seen a total of 2 RR bumper stickers in the past several months. And this is Texas.
