Two Sides of Same Coin


They say that love and hate are two sides of the same coin, and I've gotta say, I'm in hate right now with the Texas Longhorns.  Another late season collapse, losing three out of four games to unranked opponents, after all that talk about how great they've been all season.  What gives? Not only do they lose to Corn, they've gotta blow a great going away party we had set up in Boulder Saturday.  And another loss to K State - what is that losing 20 out of the last 21 contests (football, basketball, baseball) now to those f'ers? (maybe exaggeration but might as well be the real number)

I hate that this team teases us all season long only to become pathetic shadows of their earlier selves, fated to lose in the 1st or 2nd round of the NCAA's yet again. So much promise, so little delivery on that promise.  I hate this program a lot right now.  Will always root for them, but they deserve the scorn and heaping of "you suck Texas" as they can have heaped on them right now,'cause they truly do.  A loss at Baylor is on tap next, that means losing four out of the last five, limping into the Big 12 tournament (early unexplained, baffling loss will happen there, too) and another blah, wtf happened to 2011 will stick with us.  I hate, really hate them right now.  Then again, the other side of the coin...could happen again, just not feeling it any more - kinda like the girl I was dating since December!

Yeah that is pretty rough

But I am somewhat in the same boat as you right now. I may not have the passion you do about your feelings, but I am defninitely in a I do not care attitude with what happens with this team right now.

A gun rack... a gun rack. I don't even own *a* gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What am I gonna do... with a gun rack?

Let me just say

PASSION. I totally get it. Right now, im totally jealous of corn fans and buff fans and k-state fans. Weve been getting pwned like no joke every night. I thought this would be the year wed turn it around, but right now it all seems so bleak. I keep telling myself its always darkest before the morning light (teach me to do what’s right.) but this is ENOUGH ALREADY

We R Texas

I agree that we suck. That’s obvious. We suck massive diseased donkey dick. But, I’m not gonna turn my back on my Horns.

I bleed orangish-brown.
