I haven’t blogged in months. I realize now that people who blog either have a lot of time, or do it for a job.
I can’t believe someone would camp out, in freezing weather, just to enter a store. But apparently there’s a lot of people who do. Or, they’ll get up in the early A.M. to queue up (oops, I went British!) in front of stores or malls to be first in when they open at ridiculously early hours. And then I read about stampedes and tramplings and fights within these holiday crazed crowds.
What is it about the “holiday season” that brings out the maniac in a person? I don’t know, but it happens every year.
Congratulations to Jason Garrett for going 2-1 so far with the Cowboys. He may not be the answer to their long term head coach question, but at least he acts like a coach… Looks and sounds like one too. I used to give Wade Phillips the benefit of the doubt, but when he compared his winning percentage to Coach Tom Landry’s , I realized he is a fool.
I also have to congratulate the Texas Aggies for turning their football season around. I think they’re finally recovering from the folly of firing Coach R.C. Slocum. I hope my alma mater, Texas Tech,recovers from our folly of firing the winningest coach in our school’s history-- in my lifetime…
The Texas Longhorns? I don’t worry about them. Anytime a school has an annual lineup of great players wanting to go there, they’ll always be a contender. They’re proving this year though, that all programs go through cycles. I wonder how long the TCU will last? I really wonder how the TCU powerhouse got started? For years they were cellar dwellers. What caused their phoenix to rise? I guess Gary Patterson is that good of a coach and recruiter.
I’d post more here that I’ve been trying to find time to write about, but I see that it’s time to get in the Black Saturday shopping groove!
