Crimson & Cream
Crimson & Cream
We attended the OU vs. Baylor game over the weekend, witnessing the spectacular and much-awaited return of our much-beloved Sam Bradford to the field after he was almost killed by the Mormons in the season opener and sacrificed to their god, or eaten so they could imbue themselves with his strength, or whatever crazy things that the Holy Underwear makes people do. Cripes, but those Mormons are competitive, aren’t they? Anyway, with the exception of his shaky, unexpected and wide-eyed play in the season opener, we’ve all been very impressed (and a great deal relieved) by one Mr. Landry Jones, but DEAR JEBUS did the Gaylord Family Memorial Stadium erupt in loudness when Mr. Bradford walked onto the field. It wasn’t the best game of his career, for certain, but we did manage to beat the Baylor Bears into submission through a series of intensely disappointing field goals, which was sort of like making them bleed to death by paper cuts, but a win is a win, especially in conference play, and especially a week before the Red River Shootout.

“almost killed by Mormons…”
BWAHAHAHAHA!
Boomer Sooner, baby! I went to college there and will be back the weekend after Thanksgiving for a little OU/OSU action.
Great shot.

You’ve got, like, 1 mormon reader and you’re about to get a seriously angry email from him/her.
But I laughed. A lot.

We needed that, didn’t we? We’re already planning out our Red River Shootout party for Saturday. None of this “Red River Rivalry” tongue-twisting and political correctness for US; it’s always been the Shootout and it always will be! hehe
Sam Bradford is the shiznit. As is Landry Jones. Can you tell I’m a rabid Sooner fan?

Yes, those Mormons are competitive. I’m married to one – and had to hear about it ALL WEEK LONG when OU lost to BYU. Grr. Argh.
Captcha for today – fully wood. HA!
