<stirring up trouble..........> I think you might have. As for me, I may be auctioning off the rights to Jint/Jets playoff tickets. As far as I see it....'tis better to be a premium seller with these options than a buyer. My guess is they will expire out of the money.

You'd think that Mack Brown was the second coming of D. Royal. The press and everyone you can talk to is beaming about Brown. His track record is fairly purebred, far as I can tell. One of the biggest reasons for hiring Brown was the belief he could rally the various tribal alum groups together. Whatever the reason, the players themselves were ready to don pads for practice after their first meeting with the new boss. Seems his attitude is fairly infectious--something MacKovick had none of. "Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds hailed Brown's arrival, saying he will win over Texas faithful who became divided and frustrated during the six-year tenure of John Mackovic, who was fired after a 4-7 season. " I'm just glad they got a coach who can motivate players. Now if we can do something about that new slogan GSD&M came up with, "We're Texas". It's too darn similar to Tech's "We're Texas Tech". For $500,ooo, you'd think the agency could have done something more original! That's $250 thou per word. -Kevin
