I’m not talking about the already-annoying Google Buzz that just launched… Seriously, though… Google, I do not need another social media site in my life. Twitter/Facebook/MySpace/Livejournal/Friendster/LinkedIn/Blogger/Tooter, they all have a place in my heart. I have no space left for you.
No, I’m talking about the fact that Google missed the boat on their “Parisian Love” advertisement during the Super Bowl. There’s no need for this touchy-feely, warm-n-fuzzy shit in the middle of my big game. I want to laugh. I want to see Betty White drop a “that’s not what your girlfriend said” line. I want to see toys take a cheap car for a joy ride. I want to see Megan Fox in a tub and a ton of people getting slapped in the face. And, while we’re on the topic, can we just start a petition for zero pantsless dudes next year? Reginald Blackstone pitching a tent during the CareerBuilder and Dockers commercials was a bit disconcerting.
With that in mind, I think that they finally rectified the situation with this stellar reprise:
Tiger Woods search FTW!!!

The social networking site you need to make room for is http://www.couchsurfing.com
Hmm…is this what we have to look forward to until you start doing writeups on Lastros players?
Chad, could you please headbutt Betty White for her swan song Snickers commercial?
Who says we’re going to write about the Lastros?
He’s talking to me about MY write ups about the Kick Astros…who happen to be interested in bringing Willy Taveras back. And everyone knows the ladies loved their Willy T-ness. And seriously…if we’re giving the ladies what they want, it’s a much better move than bringing back Brad Ausmus.
BTDub…Big 10 is officially in talks with Texas about an invitation.

Wow…I heard about this the other day…I never saw this one coming. It’s a win-win for tU, money, spotlight, tv, etc.
We still won’t be invited to take their spot though if they move on.
Actually, if they drag Aggie with them, TCU and UH are top candidates to take their spots in the Big 12. OU and Nebraska both have wanted to play games in Houston for quite a while, but Texas has been keeping us out. If you don’t think we’re in the Big 12′s top 2, know that the Pac 10 is interested in adding Colorado and Utah. There is also talk that the Big 10 could go to a super conference of 16 teams. In this scenario the conference would be split in 2 leagues similar to baseball, and wouldn’t play teams from the other league until the conference championship. If this scenario played out, the SEC might follow and add UH to their super conference. There are several teams in the Big 12 and SEC that would like to play in Houston and expand into our market. The issue is always our facilities and fan support…both of which are on the upswing, and would improve drastically with that kind of competition.
If’s, shoulda’s, coulda’s, want-to’s…fuck it…lets do it. The time is now!
No doubt. There’s a million scenarios that could play out, but as long as the shit hits the fan I’m for it. We can’t end up worse than where we are now.
Solid point, chad. I know some LSU alums that would donate to get a new stadium built for UH if it gave them a nice place to see their Tigers play every other year. Schools like LSU and OU wouldn’t only want Houston in conference for recruiting, they also have huge fan bases here.
