CRAIG JAMES SAYS LUBBOCK SUPPORTS HIM; LUBBOCK'S LIKE NO, GTFO
by Spencer Hall on Mar 7, 2011 3:28 PM EST
Email
PrintCraig James may very well run for the Senate seat formerly occupied by Kay Bailey Hutchinson, and if you don't think he's qualified you've never read any Molly Ivins column about the intellectual capabilities and relevant professional experiences of most Texan politicians, and are unaware that their current governor has openly toyed with the notion of secession while jogging around with a Ruger shooting coyotes in the hill country surrounding Austin. He seems like fun, even for a Texan governor, and we really, really mean that.
YEEEEHAW!
James made a statement a while ago about most people in West Texas supporting him, especially in regards to his clash with former Texas Tech football coach Mike Leach. Texas Monthly decided to test this proposition by asking West Texans in Lubbock, Amarillo, and Odessa. They begged to differ with the findings of Craig James' influential polling group of one .
"With Craig James’ recent claim that people in Lubbock support him [published in D Magazine], we decided to take a closer look at voter sentiment in West Texas," said Stefan Hankin, President of Lincoln Park Strategies. "We found that Mr. James has virtually zero support in West Texas. He is, most likely due to his role in the firing of Texas Tech Coach Mike Leach, a very unpopular figure."
Only 25% of those who had an opinion re: James v. Leach believed the coach was at fault, with a plurality of those polled blaming the AD and administration. James overall enjoyed a 52% disapproval rating, a number lower than our current President's. We implore James to ignore this fuzzy math, dismiss the "haters," and proceed apace with a vigorous and extremely expensive Senate campaign focusing on these very voters. He'll have to miss the entire fall football season, and that will be a shame, but sometimes your country comes first, Mr. James.
This has been an announcement from the EDSBS Department of Serious And Not At All Duplicitous Political Advice.
PS. As a note of clarification, the people at Texas Monthly reminded us Lincoln Park did the poll, not Texas Monthly.

We also advise Mr. James to declare NOW . . .
. . . and hit the trail early to build up name recognition, even at the cost of missing the 2011 college football season while running for a seat that comes open in 2012.

Craig: go ahead, run, I dare you. Just rely on the shortlived memories of college football fans in Texas – it would be so unlike the populace of this state to hold a grudge for years (or even decades) based solely on your actions regarding their college football program. I dont know who would hate you more, ponies or raiders (ponies may be a little too proper to react as outwardly as the raiders – their hate would be more subtle and backroom – you know how that works, right Craig?)

I used to know this girl who weighed about eighty pounds and dressed in skirts that didn’t even cover her underwear, when she wore any. I had this beat-up old Mercedes, and we were off somplace about fifty miles from nowhere on Christmas Eve in a horrible sleetstorm. The road was really a mess, all curves and big ditches, and I was blotto, and the car kept slipping off the pavement and sliding sideways. And just when I’d hit a big patch of glare ice and was frantically spinning the wheel trying to stay out of the way of the oncoming traffic, she said, “I shaved my crotch today – wanna feel?”

OUR GOVERNMENT
What the FUCK do they do all day, and why does it cost so goddamned much money?
My favorite quote is the first one on the 1st edition dust jacket, which to me is basically the thesis of the book:
“Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenaged boys.”
In almost any marching band, Trombones and Drum Line are the two sections with the biggest ratio of hellraisers, troublemakers, and future cirrhosis patients.

Totally and completely off topic, but talking about Craig James makes me ill
Currently watching “Biker Build Off.” I always find it amusing that all of these “master bike builders” including the guys from OCC use S&S engines. It just makes me smile thinking that these guys that all think their God’s gift to the motorcycle use engines built in the middle of nowhere in Wisconsin.
In the summer, when people come from out of state and stop at my restaurant, they are always surprised at how many people here own motorcycles. They always seem to forget that Harley and S&S, two of the biggest names in motorcycles, are Wisconsin companies.
Side note, I drank with Paul Tuetel at S&S’s 50th anniversary rally in La Crosse, WI. That dude’s arms are bigger than my waist.

I want to believe I would root for ND, but 30+ years of fandom, plus all the memories of Badger games with Dad
has a stronger than likely chance of winning out. It would probably be best if I watched that game alone, because I would almost assuredly switch sides multiple times in the course of the game.
When ND and Wisconsin played basketball this year, I rooted solely for my Irish, but my family cared not for basketball, so the rooting wasn’t as ingrained.

There's no way in hell that neutral site game ends up in Lambeau
When ND says neutral, they don’t really mean neutral. They mean “area not at Notre Dame but still in a heavily ND partisan area.” They definitely don’t mean “area mostly full of opposing fans.” If that series happens, the neutral game would likely be at Soldier Field

I'll be in Tally until the end of the summer, but I'm not sure exactly when I'll be leaving.
Mrs. Jon has to be in Boston on 7/1 but we’re having a tough time finding anyplace to live that’ll be ready before 8/1 so I may stay until August or September.
Madison really is cool although I found Camp Randall a bit tepid compared to some of the SEC venues I’ve attended in the last few years. Having said that, I’m sure most would argue the ASU gameday environment is weaksauce, and they would have a good point. The nice part about Tempe is that since the stadium opened in 1958 over 90% of our games have been at night. This means you get up at 7am for College Gameday and the east coast games start at 9am. You have the advantages of missing nothing from across the country and going to a live game thanks to the late start (10pm EST). Thanks to our boring fanbase you can do a full barcrawl on Mill Ave. for pregame and never have to wait too long for a drink.
Our home fanbase is fair weather as all hell, but if we beat Illinois the Mizzou game will be a lot of fun. If you’ve never been to Death Valley I’d say that should be first on your list of options. If you can set your hate aside you should also make a point to go to a game in Athens, they put on a good show as well.
I’d skip the USC-ASU game because 1) USC’s obnoxious band travels and 2) that has ABC 3:30 EST regional coverage written all over it. You do not want to go to a 12:30 local kickoff in September.
I’m not sure where we’re flying into for our Champaign trip but you can see the comments by others re: driving distance. With most of my crew in PHX we’ll probably go Southwest to Midway and rent a van or two. The core group of Mustache Nation usually flys on a carrier with assigned seats to continue their tradition of an in-flight Flip Cup tournament.
Good synopsis
Will take under advisement the clutch protip on avoiding Tempe in September / daytime, thx.
I’ve been to Baton Rouge but def want to go again…without my wife/chaperone (although I think having some attractive blondes in tow helped our group acceptance).

6) We probably hate Ohio State even more than you do
5) Great seats still available if you want to come on up to Oxford, Ohio and check it out in person
4) We timed the market perfectly on finishing up the Mike Haywood era
3) Only a thousand hardcore fans, but about 700 of them are unrepentant smart-asses
2) Abillity to tell Da U supporters, “sure I like Miami, but only the real one.”

Global Complaint (Off Topic)
Is there something that is taught in Hotel Management/Design School that demands that hotel rooms can not include more than one conveniently located power outlet…that being the one and only one by the desk. And it isn’t always there either. I mean, you’d think several hundred bucks a night would get you a few of those. Nope, instead you end up unplugging half the lamps in the room if you have more than one items that needs to be recharged.

Stay at newer places.
Most places constructed after 2005 have outlets a plenty. The last time I had to go to JAX I had a power outlet on the desktop, specifically for laptops and phone chargers.
In fact, in most states the updated building codes recommend having at outlet every six feet or so
"What Would Jesus Do? You're damn right he'd do a wheelie" ~ Daniel Tosh
Hence "Global" in the title.
US building codes must be another thing that ‘they’ hate about us and refuse to adopt…like deodorent.
You can’t use your laptop / USB ports as a hub? I do this on the rare occasions I get stuck without enough outlets.

…for the cell phone. But that doesn’t work for other items like digital cameras.
Plus, if the room has wireless (like this one does) I get tethered to the desk rather than being able to multitask from the bed with a beverage and more than one english language channel that isn’t BBC World News that has 5 and only 5 stories on a loop all day long.
Fair enough. My digital camera is old enough that it came with a cable that you can use for charging from the USB, I would probably take that with me. But I only travel domestically for work, so it’s a moot point.
