This Saturday is the 100th anniversary of the Red River Shootout, that time of the year when the Longhorns bitch-slap the helpless sooners and drive them back over the border to that craphole of a state they call oklahoma. I mean seriously, if the world were to receive an enema then Norman, OK is where you would connect the hose. I've driven through OK several times and I hated it each time. No one there knows how to drive.

Unfortunately the evil sooners have been triumphant for the past five years in a row. The last time Texas won I was a senior at UT. That was before Nintendo Dolphin was even a dream.

I hope Texas wins on Saturday, and you better too. If they lose again I am going to be forced to shut down GameTavern and leave the country.

Hook 'em Horns!

Hey, looks like Texas won. I would also like to add that Pitt is now...2-4. Woo, we won today. It's not going to be a spectacular rest of the season though, but I will continue to have fun in the marching band.

I saw one of the best games I've seen in maybe 5 years today.

Northwestern 51
Wisconsin 48

Over 1100 yards of total offense.

Indeed, there was much cheering on this front.

What do you play? I played drums in the basketball band for awhile but never in the marching band.

This would be as good a time as any to ask..


But why are Highschool/College sports so big in the US?

College sports are popular precisely because of what defines their difference from pro sports. Pro athletes will play for whomever gives the money. They don't give a crap who it is. On the college level the athletes have a choice where they go. There is much more loyality, tradition, and pride at the college level.

But I mean, I just dont get it.


Because we have college/University and Highschool sports up here...but it isnt the whole diehard tradition it is there.

Like there, a College football team sometimes is praised higher than an NFL team.

Here, sometimes we dont even know a college HAS a football team.

I play Tenor Sax. I played Bari Sax in high school, but Pitt's marching band doesn't have Bari in it.

I have a cool picture of our pregame show. This was during the Pitt vs. Notre Dame game.

Dear Texas Longhorns,
