I didn't realize anybody played football outside of the Big XII.

Actually, I have a genuine Joe Pa question. Is Paterno still the head coach, or does he just show up to all the games because he can?

My alma mater didn't have a football team, but I hear that our synchronized lawn-mowing team is doing well this year.

He IS the head coach. He even still gets out there and argues with the refs about calls.

I think he lets the assistants do alot of the play calling during the game, but JoePa has already done the strategy ahead of time.

Christie -- Please see my question for you above in this thread. I seriously don't know, and I'm genuinely curious.


And.....

never mind. :D

Because I answered it or are you still not sure?

I met him once, one on one in a dark parking lot.

Really.

Because you answered it at the exact moment I came to the conclusion that you hadn't seen it. Isn't he about 128 years old by now?

I think 83.

And he was doing really good until the football player broke his leg on the sidelines.

We (Buffalos! Buffalos! Go CU!) are 3-1 and playing Texas this weekend, wherein we will probably be squished like bugs.

A Buffalo can't be squished like a bug. Don't they weigh like 2 tons or something?

They laugh at cows, horns or not!

Beevo, the Texas steer, is pretty darn big -- as big as any buffalo I've ever seen. Don't call him a cow when he can hear you.

My mom lives about 45 min. outside of Austin -- close to Hill Country. One of her friends/bridge buddies actually owns Bevo, and she has visited the ranch on many occasions.

For some strange reason she won't take me over to see him . . . or even tell me where he lives. She says good bridge partners are tough to come by.

Thanks, Mom! :shock:

I always spell the steer's name wrong. I think it's subconscious disdain.

Hey, I'm with Mom. I wouldn't tell you either if it would jeopardize my favorite bridge partner.

Not that I know anything worth knowing to begin with.

Boy, that came out wrong.
