BTW — is that a white power tattoo on Sasquatch’s right shoulder.
Or is it one of those “native american” side of the van spray paint jobs? Either way it’s better than Luke Walton’s dancing bear.

Yeah, Baylor – St. Mary will be good. I hate Drew, but he’s a good coach.
Self’s players choked. But Northern Iowa is a much, much better team than I thought.

CJD,
I’m not sure if it’s the worst job, but it’s the most disappointing ending. Talking heads are already calling it the most shocking (i.e. worst) loss in the tournament ever. 05-06, Kansas went down in the first round, but nothing like this……Can we at least call it the worst choke job ever to

If anyone in the BC bracket called this game they should immediately be hired as an assistant coach. Because that would be an act of pure witchcraft.

Huskies putting the finishing touches on Steve Alford’s feathers.

Yeah, my bracket is f#$ked.
So be it. It’s fun to watch how good these mid-major teams are. Upsets used to all be the same — a smaller team gets hot and hits 3s. Not now. These mid-majors flat-out beat highly ranked teams now.

Agreed. That’s why Dex would have fouled out. Shot-blocking is much less important that not allowing the other team to get into comfortable low post/rebounding position.

Awesome. KU is only going to make it one round farther than we did.

This is a slogan significantly more inspirational than our staff’s golf slogans with their demographic appeal skewed towards 50+ year old WASPs who sport straw hats without irony.
I kinda liked our previous slogans — they spoke to me.

I must say, I laughed louder than I should have at the “gather ’round” imagery. I also laughed because your golf reference will probably get in srr50’s head and give him the shanks for a month and a half.

I think the “We’re Texas” slogan was done pro bono by GSDM.
But it’s admittedly more pleasing to think of it as costing serious Samolians.

What about everyone in Texas who love the Horns that might have differing grammatical/linguistic preferences? We should include everyone so I propose variations on the theme, such as:
!Somos Tejas! – for south Texaners
Wer sind Texas! – for early central Texas settlers
[asian language symbols] Texas! – UT honors students
!είμαστε Texas! – that guy who served me the gyro today at Athenian Bar & Grill
We are and/or were Texas, from the year 1845 to the present! – UT law students
We is Texas! or We be Texas! – remedial English students
We Texas! – those who prefer brevity
I know I missed lots of us but this is a start at least.

Very original work by M the coach and staff. Me thinks Cleve had a hand(job) in coming up with something so catchy and unique. “Weird” Texas has an Austin ring to it. “Qui r” Texas has a French texty feeling. “Weak home schedule” Texas speaks truth to power. Cronkite is rolling in his grave, and Roy Spence is looking at the overriding royalty possibilities.

The “we’re texas” slogan rocked. I liked that fact that it emphasized that we didn’t need a crappy “home of leaders” or “building the future” slogan. we’re texas. enough said.
I also really liked the commercials. Every other school commercial shows dorky, diverse students doing vaguely academic, scientific things. Our commercial don’t even bother.
We’re texas.

Though abundant resources inarguably provide substantial advantages, they are not self-actualizing, and absent an efficient, highly functional production model their utility is drastically limited.

Texas Monthly gave UT a Bum Steer award a few years back for their “We’re Texas” slogan.
Apparrently GSDM was originally hired by Tech to advertise their medical school’s clinic.
There were billboards all over West Texas with “We’re Texas Tech” slogan.
A few years later GSDM came up with “We’re Texas” for UT ( and charged the university some big bucks ).
