Will Beebe, the Texas fans, and administration accept part of the blame or continue to be narcissistic?

Notre Dame has never wrecked a conference, let alone 2.

I know that some texico fans hate Creepy Uncle Clappy...
I know some that regret the admins actions in steering the conference...now in the ditch...
I know of quite a few who have said from the beginning that the network was overly ambitious and would end up hurting them in the long run...
I know of some that even think they'll be lucky to break .500 this year...

I think the anonymity that the interwebz provide enable these contrarian types.

I may have been guilty of it myself once.:angel:

Continued distraction and no answers for the failure of the Southwestern and Big XII conferences.

It's simple. Why have the SWC and Big XII failed?

Surely TM has a reasonable opinion?

go read your trivia board about the swc....i got into it a little with corn train.....as for the big 12 it can be described basically as ...too many chiefs and not enough indians.....nebraska is a proud school and they didnt like when OU picked texas over them for yearly game and they didnt like getting the short end of the vote all the time.....im not sure why but my theory i think might have a little truth is that missouri,ku,ksu and colo. kinda went along with texas to get back at nebraska a little for them dominating them for 50/60 years..and also beebe mis-managed the conference horribly

Reps.

Reasonable and to the point. Thanks for the rational feedback.

The Big XII North unanimously voted against Nebraska out of vengence and the goal of bringing the Huskers "down to their level' as opposed to rising to NU's level. Typical liberal shit. The conciliations and advantages to Texas were not considered. Texas methodically considered it's desire for power and control when they put the proposals out there. It was sugar coated for suckers who are about to pay a major price. You give me hope that Texas fans aren't all TM's.

I still haven't gotten ONE answer to my question.

Simple minds want to blame Texas, but have no REASONS they can use in doing so.

I suggest we end the thread here, as it's clear serious, honest and open discussion is not going to happen.

If you don't know what happened to the SWC, there's no point in you bringing it up, its irrelevant to this discussion.

If I could rep you twice I would. At least you provide reasonable, thought out answers as opposed to 20 - 13.

Simple question is simple.

Furthermore, why are you so interested in MY opinion? What is your obsession?

Notre Dame is a current member of 3 different conferences. However, in football they have never won a conference championship.

My perceived obsession w/ you is why you continue to avoid answering why Texas is the common denominator in the failure of 2 major conferences?

I'm not bashing Texas' tradition, success, placement in elite programs. Earl Campbell is one of my favorite players ever along with many OU players that call their home Texas. My issue is Texas going out of their way to limit others ability to have success. An uneven playing field is a path to superiority.

Taking down OU is next on their hit list. Reeling off 10 straight against OU is boner material for the Longhorns. It doesn't matter how many members are in the Big XII conference as long as the rest are Missouri caliber. Owning OU is a must.

OU won't play that shit, nor do they have to.

Again, what is your obsession with me? LOL

Quite simply you're a troll w/out the stevie quality. Your posts lack insight, information and humor.

As grandpappy used to tell me. "Don't ask a question you don't want to hear an answer for". "Treat others as you expect to be treated".

In the spirit of SportsHoopla, you've still got disney adolescence in you. It's good that you take pride in the success/accomplishments of the Texas program. I respect those accomplishments as well. But your overall quality is merely a step above a January 2011 OregonDucks.
