I agree. It doesn't seem fair to me that Hawaii, which is undefeated (despite their strength of schedule), can't be considered for the National Championship..... while the LSU Tigers, with two losses, could win it all. I don't think Hawaii is probably as good as either OSU or LSU, but it seems like they've earned the right to at least play them to see. Meanwhile, my 7-5 Aggies are playing Penn State in the Alamo Bowl. Gary Darnell (Def. Coordinator) will coach them in the game, and then turn the reins over to Mike Sherman.

It's just a different paradigm than the traditional local/long distance call rates, and "who is initiating the call". You simply pay for the air time on your phone, regardless of the distance of your call. Works fine for me. Except for the telemarketing stuff. That sucks no matter what kinda phone you are using.

I want one of these!

IF the Boys make it to the Super Bowl (and last night's second half didn't exactly inspire any confidence), we can expect a New England blowout along the lines of the Cows 52-17 drubbing of the Bills in Super Bowl XXVII. I dunno. The Cowboys were ahead in the middle of the 3rd quarter vs. the Patriots. The Pats got a couple of late TD's to ice the game, but they didn't (IMO) blow the Cowboys out of the water at all. That score (48-27) wasn't really indicative of the game. IF the Cowboys play their "A" game, mistake-free, I think they've got a chance. That's an IF, but it's certainly possible. Regarding the Cowboys' play after Aaron Rodgers went in, I think the Cowboys coaches made a philosophical mistake in not continuing to attack the QB. I guess they thought they'd play soft and expect him to make mistakes, being unprepared. Turned out to be the wrong decision though. Had they continued the pressure, I think the game would have been more one-sided.

Happy late Birthday, John! All the best.

11-1 for the Cowboys! Romo had a great game, with four TD passes (and 1 INT in the end zone that was T.O.'s fault, not Romo's). Other than that one play, T.O. had a great game too. The defense picked off Favre twice, and was in his face up until his injury. For some reason they backed off and played soft when Rogers took over. I think they should have applied more pressure, because Rogers did a fine job dinking and dunking and putting the Pack back into the game. He may turn into a good QB after all. I don't know if the Cowboys are as good as the Patriots (but who is right now?), but I think they may be as good or better than anyone else in the league. I think they can compete with the Pats.

We're getting the NFL Network feed on local braodcast TV as we speak. This must be a last minute thing, because my son was sure that it was gonna be a sports bar night for him and proceeded accordingly... That's a local thing only in the Dallas area. The rest of Texas that normally gets Cowboys games (like Austin, San Antonio, Corpus) aren't getting it.

J.A.W. did not accept several adverse discussions. He is unfortunately out of here. I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope he eventually returns. I agree.

After all these years, the real truth finally comes out!

Somehow I'm worried you're referring to me, even though those aren't my letters!

You need one? There are a few around.

I think he's really saying he kidnapped Carlos Boozer.

Nice photo of Scofield in the December Downbeat, Mark!

Thanks!

Happy Birthday Beef Frank!!!

What if you rename member #1 from "Admin" to "Jim Alfredson", then change the post count to whatever your post count is on member #2?

Dell still offers brand new PCs with XP on them (or Vista). I'm guessing some other manufacturers do as well.

Texas A&M is apparently announcing the hiring of Mike Sherman as head coach, as we speak (type). He's currently the OC for the Houston Texans, but was the GB Packers coach before that. He's never been a college head coach before, but was a OL coach at A&M a while back. Being a former NFL head coach may help A&M attract talent that Franchione wasn't able to. Not a "sexy" hire, but still could be a good one in the long run. I see that Georgia Tech fired Chan Gailey today too.

This was clarified some years ago. He overdubbed drum parts for the US releases of the early Tony Sheridan-era stuff, when Pete Best was the drummer. These tracks came out on the Atco and MGM labels in 1964 during the mad rush to cash in on the Beatles name. All of the variations of these tracks are apparently available on a Bear Family issue. You'd have to be a major completist to want this stuff, though. It's pretty bad. From the Bear Family booklet: "Meanwhile, Atco decided that the recordings they'd licensed needed to be spiced up. In order to get a more commercial sound, they called in session musicians to overdub drums and guitar on the masters of Sweet Georgia Brown and Take Out Some Insurance On Me, Baby. On Ain't She Sweet, they only added drums. Later, in the cutting room, the expletive "goddamn", heard on Take Out Some Insurance On Me, Baby, was edited out and Nobody's Child was shortened by almost one minute. All this was done sometime in mid-January 1964 at the Atlantic Recording Studio in New York. The guitar overdubs are believed to been played by Cornell Dupree and the drum overdubs by Atlantic session man, Bernard 'Pretty' Purdie." I just picked this box set up a few weeks ago, and actually sort of enjoy it. I don't think it's bad. There is alot of repetition on it though - mono & stereo versions of the same tracks, versions with German intros, English intros, etc.

I watched the game with my brother-in-law in Austin yesterday, sort of numb to the team's ups and downs this year, and just tired of the coach. I have to say the Aggies surprised me with their intensity - if they'd played like that all season, Franchione might still be around. I think the players must have played their hearts out, suspecting it was Fran's last game. Nice to have a 2 game winning streak against a Texas program with better talent! Still seems to be Tuberville, Spurrier, and Cal's Jeff Tedford as the front runners for the A&M job in the rumor mills. PS - Ran into Double Trouble drummer Chris Layton in Waterloo yesterday!

Actually I suspect that would apply to any child, not just your own. But don't quote me on that. I don't have any kids to drag around. I wonder what my neighbors would say if... I told you not to quote me on that!
