The way that the dude says "ARE YOU THREATENING TO FIGHT"? 3. The fact that guy goes from being mystified and off-handedly joking about the absurd possibility that this assembly of tough-talking old white rich people in suits is going to end in a brawl to being prepared to fight Joe Jumail takes less than 90 seconds and apparently being referred to as a "dumb son of a bitch." 4. The fact that ridiculous macho posturing by old, rich, white men in suits pretty much explains every single thing about Texas politics since 1820.

I think there's going to be a period where the new AD takes on more and more responsibilities, ending with Dodds officially stepping down. Unless things go amazing from here on out, I bet Mack will announce before the end of the season that he won't be back for the next one. The Wealthiest Practicing Lawyer in America.

Aside from that amazing video this sounds like a really odd situation to me, do other schools do this? If Mack goes away will the new guy have final say on whoever they hire at HC or?

If Mack goes away will the new guy have final say on whoever they hire at HC or? I suspect Dodds will be AD in name only for much of that time. I think it has to do with (1) Dodds' contract including a $1m bonus/annuity if he's still there on literally the day he plans to step down and (2) Chip Brown reported Deloss was stepping down before the end of the year and this way they can still kinda be like NUH UH. I bet the new guy will be the one picking Mack's replacement if he goes before next season. Thermos H Christ fucked around with this message at 02:42 on Oct 3, 2013 |

First thing you teach anyone learning to use an axe is to keep your hands lower than the axe head while swinging. That way, if you miss or do some other stupid new person thing, your miss goes into the ground. If you swing an axe with your arms up high, your miss goes into your leg or the axe flies out of your hands. /axe derail

I need to immediately start using the phrases "are you threatening to fight?," "you watch and see, big boy," "that ain't your goddamn job, fat boy," and "you've got an incipient bad mouth" in my everyday life. If any of you are lawyers (and I think like 95% of TFF is lawyers), you need to start yelling "don't be tellin' another lawyer to shut up" all of the time. e: Now I have this picture saved on my computer as "Texas Fight.jpg

My plan has always been to charm juries by being a folksy southern gentleman lawyer who wore seersucker, had a cane, used the phrase "well now I don't know much" a lot, and frequently referred to the life lessons of my fictional grandpappy. But now I'm starting to think that Angry Texas Lawyer is really the way to go.

Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports is reporting USC has approached Jeff Tedford to come on as an offensive consultant and recruiter, along with the chance to be a candidate for the HC position. Tedford has turned the initial offer down but is entertaining the HC job.

Honestly I like coach O and all but the fact that USC thought Tedford would seriously entertain working for him is kinda funny. That's almost like approaching Bill Snyder or someone and offering him the "opportunity" to go work for Ron Zook.

I've had to stop more than one deposition because of an imminent deponent/attorney fight, and have been pretty close to blows with opposing counsel on at least one occasion. I'm in Lexington, but a lot of my practice is in far-flung Eastern Kentucky.

It's worth noting that the tipping point comes when Ed Carstarphen tells the deponent and Joe Jamail not to talk over each other. It's not really even a legal objection, he's just calmly reminding them to take turns talking so the stenographer can get a good record of what's being said. But bold Tucker has had enough, and in no time a Texas Twister of  is unleashed.

Joe Jamail won a $7 billion judgment (might still be the largest judgment to date) in Harris County with the "In Texas a handshake is a deal, and these fancy big city New Yorkers can't come in and mess with the way we do bid'ness here in Texas". Pennzoil v. Texaco is the coolest case.

I imagine Mack announces he's retiring at the end of the season the week after Texas first win following their second conference loss, if that makes sense. So let's say after the Kansas game on Nov. 2.

Seeing his reaction to the ISU win (the press conference more than on the field) literally made me feel sick to my stomach. The dude wasn't putting on a face, he really was just pleased as punch with that outcome. Even going so far as to defend Mike Evans being a total shitlord. Taylor Gaspar reported on twitter that "Major Applewhite not happy about #Texas' offense. Mack Brown said he needs to get over it & never be angry after a win." Jesus, Mack, no wonder this program has been run in to the ground given the utter lack of leadership you exhibit. That's what you have to say after we just barely squeaked out a controversial 1-point win against one of the very worst FBS teams? That we should come away celebrating and not feeling terrified by the abysmal level of play? Go away forever, you senile sack of poo poo. It's not enough to know that all signs are pointing to his departure. I need to hear the words from his mouth and I need to hear them now. To date all we've heard is that he loves what he's doing and we're actually really good and whatever's wrong he can fix it and he's staying until at least 2020 and the fans just need to be patient. gently caress that.
