Etiquette at the Kill...

Texas' newest freshman recruiting class participated in the dining etiquette portion of the embarrassingly-titled life-skills program that Mack Brown has had in place since he arrived in 1998 (Anyone else surprised that this isn't a holdover from that wino, Mackovic?).

Take from that what you will, but I simply must point out my personal favorite quote from TE Blaine Irby:

"It's a great opportunity for all of us because I know most of us growing up never had something like this, so it was helpful for us to learn proper etiquette," noted Irby. "My mom and grandma used to teach me a lot of stuff growing up, but I definitely learned a lot of new stuff. I was sitting with Coach (Bobby) Kennedy and Coach (Will) Muschamp, so I learned some from them, too."

question

When is this class on "How to be a gentleman to the ladies"?

...too early?

Probably at the same time

that A&M holds it's "Blackface wasn't funny then, and it sure as hell ain't funny now" class for all of its incoming freshmen...

So take that.

ah yes

everyone at A&M is racist. Someone paid attention in freshman orientation.

Re: ah yes

And, of course, all Longhorn players need the class you reference.  Don't generalize Texas if you don't want a&m to be generalized.  Hypocrite.

re:re:

but my comment was topical and witty.
his was tired and unimaginative.

also, notice the presence/absence of the word "all" in our respective comment.  ahh nevermind.

Caoch Muschamp

rumor has it Coach Muschamp tore into his steak and after every bite said "Boom MF".

I couldn't give a flying rat's ass whether these guys know etiquette or not....just knock somebody"s f'n head off in 2008.

In all seriousness, this is a good program that Mack and Sally have started and they should be applauded for it.
