Freds one of the best at whistling past the graveyard
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Indeed, young Thumper, the sage and venerable Master Wilson is quite the orator.  Put him in a bandit's mask and put galvanized stainless steel garbage can lids in his dexterous claws and you might could even call him a racoonteur.   

In fact, it is with sad regret that I must quote Karl Marx's brother Julius Henry and say, "Horse Feathers."

"disaster is most likely to strike," "biggest Sooner headaches," "too many Sooner eggs laid right there on the field"

And so it's always been for Okies.   I can just hear old Joad from Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath" drawling "When lightnin' kills yer donkey, ye don't ask why, that's jes' the way thangs is."

Such simple, ignorant, innocent souls.

But I'd rather light a candle than curse your darkness.  

What you're talking about, Cousin Fred, are ECFGs.   You can pretend it's jes' the way thangs is but two billion christians, a billion hindus, a half billion buddhists, and 30 million texans can't be wrong.  There's karma in this world.  You reap what you sow.  What goes around comes around.  ECFGs smite the cocky.  It's not a terribly complex concept to grasp, amigo.

Ain't that the truth?!  When those talented Sooners end up with 3 losses, we'll know why.

Well, if all that's true, and if the ECFGs do actually troll our games, and punish us for being frothful football fans, I feel pretty good about my own role in all of this, as I keep my expectations respectably low when it comes to my dear Sooners. 

It's like Michael Kinsley wrote when Bill Clinton was elected in 1992:

"No doubt it will all end in tears." 

No doubt, indeed.
