    Yea for Clayton!
    That’s awesome to hear about Ronnell! I hope he gets picked up by someone. Would be great to see him in Dallas.
    Haha, we’ve got an inside man for the CFP.
    I f’n hate clowns, but that was funny. The one at the gas station was perfectly creepy.

    Sounds like Lewis is turning a corner. Hope he holds it together gains some success. That clown would need a bullet proof vest if he tried that crap around me.

    • kt-raida says:

      If he tryed what? I read the article but didn’t get much insight.

    • EasTex says:

      I thought the dude at the gas station was reaching for his little friend in the car.
      What would the killer clown do if one of his marks ran towards him?

      • Sooner Ray says:

        I thought the exact same thing, I would have been firing over the door because I always have one within reach.

        • EasTex says:

          Could be the guy pulled and that’s why the clip ended with a stare down.
          Even if clown boy was wearing body armor, my favorite load (RBCD Performance Plus in .45ACP) would end him. If you aren’t familiar with it, there are some excellent utube videos.

    Good for Ronnell Lewis, that story at least to me has always been a depressing saga. The guy had/has so much potential. I am glad to hear he is not giving up and matured a bit. He was so much fun to watch and knowing that his draft status and earning potential could have been higher had he just stayed another year was frustrating as a fan.

    Glad to hear about Clayton, great job!

    Freakin’ Clowns!!!! Straight up spooky.

  • Swanny says:

    Of course CBS (aka SEC) wants to ditch non-conference. Most of the teams in the SEC play 3 double directional schools anyways. TTU plays a tougher non-con and theirs is always a joke. I wish they’d do away with the ability to play FCS schools.

    • SoonerfanTU says:

      Why would the SEC want to ditch playing non-conference games, if they are scheduling automatic wins? Seems like that is something they’d want to keep doing.

      • Swanny says:

        Georgia Southern beating Florida and Tennessee getting smashed by Oregon come to mind from last year. If you have the illusion of being the best, and you only play yourself, then you’ll always be in the championship.

  • Super Keith says:

    As a Colorado resident (and Rockies fan), I’ll be pissed if Gray gets traded. That’s been the problem with this club, pitching. We finally have a couple of legitimate studs coming up, and Kiszla (the author of that post) wants to deal them. I really hope it doesn’t happen.

  • EasTex says:

    I know what the girl on the bike was feeling, been there myself, only my adrenaline overdose from a near crash had me puking and crying for a good ten minutes.

    Good for Ronnell . . . I’d say all Sooner Nation wants to see him succeed, return to the big show (to borrow a baseball term)
