MACK BROWN HIRES MORE MACK BROWNS TO DO WHATEVER MACK BROWN DOES
by Spencer Hall on Jan 24, 2012 1:59 PM EST
Email
PrintYou might be wondering why I, Mack Brown, would need $5 million dollars a year. Well, first, I need to give some of it right back to the great state of Texas, and to the fine men and women who make it what it is: the greatest state in the union. I do this by paying taxes, just like any good American would. You like that rutted toll road, Houstonians? Say thank you to Daddy Mack for a good twenty foot strip of that.
Then, because this is a big job for a big state, I'll need to set aside some for my long-suffering family. Contrary to the terms of my contract Ol' Mack isn't going to live forever, so it's important that I get things set for them in my absence. For those purposes, I have brought the talents of veteran character actor Beau Bridges. He's warm, avuncular, and while not intimidating is certainly capable of being the firm but caring father figure I know I won't be able to be after my departure from the Great State of Texas. Beau will start these duties playing family Mack immediately in order to free me up to tend to my football obligations.
With this money, I would then need to take care of my second family, The Texas Longhorns. You might recall how I've brought on such great talent to help this university in the past, like current Texas assistants Manny Diaz and Bryan Harsin. I'd like to announce the latest member of our staff, a person who i believe will bring an energy to the role of "Coach Mack Brown" that hasn't been seen in years
Playing the role of me on select gamedays, non-BCS bowls, and during weekly press conferences, I present the new "Coach Mack Brown," veteran thespian Ben Gazzara.
I assure you, Mr. Gazzara's sixty years of acting experience make him an ideal candidate for this position. I've seen him clap, and it is a spectacle of theatrical skill unlike anything I've seen. He was also in Road House, the only film I have ever seen.
Mr. Gazzara's understudy is also a new hire. Carl Weathers brings a wealth of experience to the job, and while his apperance as "Mack Brown" may be a bit jarring, I assure you the spirit he conveys as "Mack Brown" overcomes any doubts as to his ability to play the role.
Finally, with the proceeds of my $5 million, I will finally delegate some of my duties for phone interviews and recruiting calls to Tendulkar Phone Services of Hyderabad, India.
If you need me, I will be doing the important business of the Texas football program, and helping lead us back to Big 12 Titles and the BCS Title Game at my ranch. Thank you for this contract extension. Mr. Gazzara will take any further questions on this matter.

I've seen a few episodes and found it pretty funny.
Never became a dedicated watcher though. Didn’t know Carl Weathers made an appearance
https://twitter.com/#!/SpartanKC
For most shows I'd say give it some more time.
But Arrested Development was basically the show it was going to be by episode 2. If you didn’t like the first 3-4, no way it ever grows on you.

THIS.
Haven’t had a good Banh Mi in forever.
I told them before the game if those bastards have to run the fumblerooski, come to the sidelines and party because they have given up their right of manhood.
It's the first one I've ever had, and I did most of the making
So I wouldn’t say it was a “good” Banh Mi, as I’ve never had one before. I thought it was damned delicious, so it was good in that sense. Need to get myself to Buford Highway for a good one, to see how far off I was.

What I don’t understand about the student section issues is that, if the section isn’t going to fill up with campers, you don’t have to camp out. I got into all but two games in my two years of grad school down there on the undergrad line (I looked really young and they didn’t have card readers yet) and never waited on line more than six hours — even for Carolina.

It was when I was there too (1988-90) . . .
. . . but I didn’t get tickets in the grad school allocation, so I put my relative youth to good use and waltzed in with the undergrads for every game.
At least back then, there were tenters for most of the season but not enough of them to fill up the section for any game except, maybe, Carolina, and I got into the Carolina game by going over on Sunday morning at 7:30 AM for a 3:00 PM tip off.

In the 80's they tried to take away the premium seating from the students at K-State.
It was pointed out that the students had a contract for the seating since they helped finance the building. Hopefully the next generation of K-State Student Government will remember to do this as well.
So far it has worked for great student seats in Ahearn and Bramlage.

I'm all for a playoff
But not one with just conference champions (and I felt this way long before this year, haterz). I don’t want to see a coach consider sitting his starters in the Iron Bowl cause he already has the SEC West sewn up. I don’t want to see an 8-4 Big East team on equal footing with a beat-up SEC or Big 12 who just played 5 other top 20 teams. This is the most you will ever hear me say about it though, because I am an Alabama fan and therefore not allowed to have an opinion on the matter.

Option 2: Sell your soul and everything your football existence has been to this point to join a major conference.
Option 3: don’t have any delusions of competing for anything meaningful.
Option 4: play all of your OOC games on the road against major conference teams and cost your school tons of cash.

I'm not sure how true the arguments are any more though.
TCU and Boise were left out in 2009, but so was Cincinnati, a BCS school. TCU may have a case for 2010, but it’s no different than Auburn in 2004. After Utah and Boise in their games against Bama and Oklahoma, respectively, I find it hard to believe an undefeated non-AQ school with at least one marquee victory would be passed over for a one-loss AQ school. If Boise had hit that field goal this year, they would’ve played LSU.

"While you may not give a shit, @mlebowski313 is an unstoppable force of nature [at Words With Friends]" -T-Jax
You'd need at least a 32-team playoff before resting starters in a 12-game season is plausible
in any game where a loss is even remotely possible, anyway. One loss will always have a major negative impact on seeding, and two will put an at-large spot in jeopardy.
Except seeding would introduce a very clear subjective factor into the final rankings
In which case, if it’s the media or coaches – they will absolutely take into account very obvious cases of resting an entire team at the end of a season before a conference championship.
Note that no one rests starters late in college basketball season
or even in conference tournaments.
I've seen teams take foot off the gas in conference tourneys
Not totally bench their starters, but if you’re KU and you have a 1 seed locked going into the Big XII tournament, it’s to your advantage to lose early.

They still won't.
He’s a butcher in the field — although he got a lot better at first after he lost some weight (i.e., cut back on the booze). They’ll DH him since V-Mart is out for they year, even though that means we’ve got a fuckton of money tied up in a DH.

He's not awful defensively.
He’s not great, but I wouldn’t put him in the “butcher” category

At third?
He’s a butcher. It’s worth carrying Inge at third even when he isn’t hitting a lick because of his effect on the staff ERA.

I can't imagine they'd play Fielder anywhere but 1st or DH.
He’d be a disaster at 3rd

Sorry for the confusion.
I was referring to Cabrera. The experiment of having him at third was . . . ummmmm . . . not good, and the rest of the infield that year was probably even worse.

Doubt it.
Fielder goes to 1st, Inge stays at 3rd, and Cabrera becomes the world’s most expensive DH while spelling both of the other guys occasionally.

I KNOW, IT WOULD BE A FIRST FOR YOU TO ACTUALLY GO OVER ANY OF THE WORK YOU’VE ASSIGNED US, BUT DON’T YOU THINK IT WOULD HELP AT LEAST CONVINCE US IT’S ACTUALLY WORTH DOING? NO? OH OKAY FINE. YOU’RE RIGHT, GIVING US A 30 MINUTE EXPLANATION OF YOUR KIDNEY STONES AND HOW THEY MADE YOU MISS CLASS LAST WEEK IS DEFINITELY A BETTER USE OF OUR TIME. NO, REALLY, I’M GLAD YOU TOOK THE TIME TO WRITE “KIDNEY STONES” IN JAPANESE ON THE BOARD FOR US. CAN’T WAIT FOR THAT TO SHOW UP ON OUR TEST. NEXT TIME I GO BACK TO JAPAN AND TALK WITH A CROWD OF OCTOGENARIANS, IT WILL COME IN HANDY. I’M SO GLAD I HAVE YOUR CLASS, BECAUSE NOWHERE ELSE WOULD I BE ABLE TO FIND SUCH RELEVANT, ON-TOPIC DISCUSSION. YES PLEASE KEEP RAMBLING YOU 婆, WE ALL WOULD CERTAINLY NOT BENEFIT FROM BEING ASKED QUESTIONS AND RESPONDING IN CLASS, THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER AS A ONE-WAY DISCUSSION LISTENING TO YOU TALK. YOU KNOW, YOU MIGHT WANT TO LOOK INTO HOW TEACHING METHODS HAVE CHANGED SINCE THE MEIJI ERA, WHEN YOU WENT TO THE IMPERIAL TEACHER’S ACADEMY. OH, WHO AM I KIDDING, DON’T BOTHER, I’M SURE THE IDIOTS IN MY CLASS ARE HAPPY THAT THEY AREN’T EXPECTED TO DO ANYTHING—IT’S MUCH EASIER FOR THEM TO JUST BITCH ABOUT IT LATER WHEN EVERYONE GETS A B BECAUSE NONE OF US KNOW WHAT THE 地獄 YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT. NO, YOU’RE CERTAINLY HELPING US OUT BY JUST GIVING US THE ASSIGNMENTS WITH THE ANSWERS ALREADY FILLED IN. ALSO, THANKS FOR THAT EXCEL SPREADSHEET OF SOME OTHER STUDENT’S NOTES. I’M CERTAINLY NOT GOING TO BOTHER TO TAKE NOTES NOW, BECAUSE IT COULDN’T POSSIBLY BE PERSONALLY BENEFICIAL TO NOTE DOWN WORDS THAT I’M NOT FAMILIAR WITH MYSELF…AND OF COURSE I NEED ALL THESE WORDS THAT THIS IDIOT DOESN’T KNOW, BUT I’VE BEEN USING DAILY FOR THE LAST 7 YEARS.
