Meltdowns

After reading some of the reader comments following articles in the Austin American Statesman about Baylor's upset win over Texas last night, I was reminded of the comments by AAS readers after Texas beat Southern Cal to win their national championship. Those arrogant fucks were on top of the world then, and I said to myself, "Live it up, you assholes. Nothing lasts forever and this, too, shall pass."

In college football, nobody stays on top forever. Ask Florida State, Notre Dame, Michigan, Miami, Nebraska, Penn State, and about a dozen other schools who at one time or another were considered to be the cream of the crop. Three years ago USC looked like the team of the century, then Reggie Bush happened.

So man up, longhorns, and quit your bitching. Just hope that you won't ever be looking back and thinking about the good old days when 4-4 would've been a pretty good record to have.
