Hook 'em. A good comeback win to dust off the confidence. Thanks for the updates.

A W is a W. on to the weekend.

 

[joeywa]

A W is a W. on to the weekend.

Yep; wasn't pretty, wasn't flashy, in spots it was down right ugly.  But I'd be willing to bet in May, it still counts as a W in the scorebook, and style points won't get you much in the way of more W's. 

This team needed a challenging game to get their heads back into the game, because this weekend is going to be a test. 

 

[Matt Cotcher]

Slim forgot to tell Ben Johnson that homeruns aren't allowed at DFF.

 

[armadillo slim]

Slim forgot to tell Ben Johnson that homeruns aren't allowed at DFF.

yep, we're absolutely awash with runaway offense.  next thing you know, the ncaa will be descending on Disch Falk to test ben johnson for steroid abuse and dumbing down the bats even more because we're returning to gorilla ball.  

what does that make leaving the yard over at DFF this year?  2?

 

[armadillo slim]

hey matt, soccer called.  they want their game back.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

what does that make leaving the yard over at DFF this year?  2?

He has 3 at DFF (Texas State, UT-Arlington & UT-PanAm).

That's a 50% increase of your total. Quit trying to deflate his work!  :wacko:

 

[joeywa]

Matt, I think Slim's meds need to be reviewed.  He's been all grumpy since TCU weekend. 

I'm not so sure that he'd smile right now if an entire flock of double-breasted mattress thrashers landed on his lawn, each carrying a bottle of scotch and singing him praises.
