Phil Simms has some interesting things to say about the Detroit Lions organization and what they need for a successful turnaround.

Watch it here.

I had no idea of just how bad the kittycats from Detroit were. That is one sorry team.

Well another Thanksgiving Lions game to remind me why I switched alegiance to the Bears 23 years ago.
The only thing sadder than a Lions fan is a Cubs fan.
And that’s my trashtalk for the day.
Off to the in-law’s for turkey

I bet UofA fans say the same about you ASU fans though.

Kinda like Kentucky and Louisville. Or NC/Duke, Florida/Florida State/Miami. Hell even Michigan/THE Ohio State. USC/UCLA

But I bet we can almost all agree on Notre Dame’s suckiness.

Heh, I was kidding. this is Trash Talk ya know. Most peoples fans are very decent; with the exception of those from the UofA in Tucson. Those people are rude, and their team sucks too!

I might be insufferable, but Texas fans on the whole are as classy as you will encounter anywhere. It’s my observation, though not entirely unbiased, that anyone not a rival with first hand experience at a game will likely concur.

The worst trash I’ve talked was at the 2005 Rose Bowl when Texas played Michigan. I struck up a pre-game conversation in a concession line with the jersey wearing sister of one of Michigan’s starting O-Linemen. When I asked her what year he was, she replied “a Junior”. I said, “That’s good, he’ll get another chance to win the Rose Bowl”. She laughed.

All things being equal, the computers alone stand to put the dirt burglars ahead of Texas in the BCS standings by the slimmest of margins. The gap between BCS #2 Texas and BCS #3 ou got closed to a razor thin margin by voters last weekend when ou hammered TTech on their home field while Texas had a bye week. It’s BS that Texas beat OU head to head, and has as hard or harder strength of schedule yet stands to edge ahead in a bauty contest because Tech is historically awful on the road and on natural grass.

If Okie St. beats the dirt burglars on Sat, they are out of the BCS.

Assuming Texas beats aggy today, They are either in the BCS Fiesta/Sugar Bowl, or will play in the BCS title game. Not a bad outcome in they take care of business tonight.

If blowU wins ugly against Okie St. and Texas stomps a mudhole in aggy, conceivably Texas could retain its BCS #2 rank through this weekend if enough voters reassert Texas’ place.
