yeah Shiner but I remember well how much you enjoyed Mansiel leading the Aggies to victory including that Aggies cotton bowl win over the Sooners etc, and I don’t remember you worrying too much about JFF’s demeanor.
CW and I have also admitted right here before this present gathering of dogs, sharks and various sundry alphas that Baker has more than his share of jackassery.
And Id go further and say we’re all part jackasses. Anyone who spends time talking about other sports teams and their fans in the way we do here, particularly for example on a rivalry weekend like OU-Texas, is guilty of it. If you doubt that, go check the haiku or meme threads this past October. Texas and Oklahoma fans being total jackasses to one another. It’s fun. I make no apologies.
You tell me that if you were in Baker’s shoes and you had his talent and enthusiasm and team leadership, and you walk out to midfield and the other team refused to shake your hand in front of thousands in the stands and millions on the tube in the Standard way that you wouldn’t react? If the other team was making that extra hit on you after you threw a pass and talking shit in your face that you’d turn the other cheek? In football?? Heck you guys (and I) can’t even turn the other cheek when someone here says your team sucks.
In fact as often as not, we’re those KU captains out at midfield egging it on.
Face it. To varying degrees, we’re all jackasses. And we’d love to be Baker Mayfield right about now.
