Apathy beginning to set in

I’m ready for basketball season.

BTW you really need to see the soccer team play. These ladies are really good. Best team on campus right now.

Meh, Jed Clampett found oil with a single .22 round.

Oh, it was invented, but it was illegal (old enough to remember LBJ's pal Billie Sol Estes who went to federal pen?)....

Here’s hoping for a turnaround for the second half the season. We can still end up with a winning record. Maybe even shock a few teams we aren’t expected to beat. Most importantly - Baylor.

You’re probably right. But I’ve never been to one of their contests and I’m sure not many have here either.


Go to a soccer game, that is a really good team and deserves it’s backing.

If Football prowess hasn't a damned thing to do with fundraising, why doesn't TCU just fold up Athletics altogether?

I never said that. I said TCU fundraising success isn't just a byproduct of what Gary Patterson has done for TCU football -- and that's all I said.

I go a fair amount. We are a soccer family.

So, you're saying that maybe, just maybe, it did have an impact?

Your screen name checks out.

Which means what? I dont know who you are but something tells you were not on this forum when Wes and Scott did not own it, and Scott went by Arka Frog.

I remember how everyone went to pieces when we would lose to Rice. . .

Funny, but in the past when the frogs weren't having a great season, they could always spring some huge upsets.
I loved games like beating or tying SMU 3 straight years in '47, '48 and '49 when they had the great (truly) Doak Walker.
Then there was knocking Texas out of 3 natty's in '41, '59 and '61. '59 wasn't really an upset, but 'Horns were headed for NC.
TCU could win the rest of this year if they get things straightened out,--- Yogi said " It ain't over 'til it's over".

Remember sitting in the stands one year for a home game against rice and there were maybe 5000 people there. This was just after the swc break-up. Looked around and said "we are not going to make it". Glad I was wrong. Things have been much worse.

Netty...I can't figure this out. I first met NewFrogFan years ago. Year or two later, I recognized him at the BYU game in Provo and we talked. Years ago, his son played ball for TCU and was an a big contributor to the success of TCU He may have graduated from LSU but he is a big TCU fan and to suggest otherwise is flat out wrong. BTW: He was a high ranking AirForce officer and flew more than a couple of missions in defense of our country. His daughter was the"first female pilot" to fly the B-52. Sounds like a genuine guy to me. I wanted set the record straight. I would do the same for you.

I knew it was some kind of B- couldn't remember the number.

Thanks Tumbleweed but if my daughter had flown B29 my flights would have been in airplanes with no canopy and wings on top of each other. I would have goggles on and a white scarf and waved at the German I just shot down. She still flies the B52H in the USAFR. Lol!!!!
