What's up with the Texas schools and hand signals. Texas has the "hook em horns" deal. Then, Tech has this stupid guns thing. Then, TCU has that Frog thing that looks absolutely ridiculous. A&M doesn't have one that I know of, but they do those yells and make plenty of hand signals. My theory: Texas has been doing hook em horns for ages, and now the other schools want to be that cool.

I never could figure out what he got unsportsmanlike for. Guy by me said UK was giving the throat slash signal when they scored and the **** didn't get called.

he did that signal that every running back in the country does after that score where the palm of their hands are pointed towards the outside and they're up next to his head... i'm sure it has some name. but there's no way that was a penalty especially when he did it to our student section for about a half a second, and ran directly to the sideline...

the "Croom Fat Belly Rub"... Everytime we score everyone lifts their shirts and rubs a fat gut for ole Croomy... And as a side note hat must be cocked to the side when rubbing...

It's the Omega symbol for member of the fraternity Omega Psi Phi. Does not have a thing to do with RBs

That was Auburn, I think following the 4th and goal stop.

Dammit. Now I'm reminded that we were winning one year ago.

They have about 5,000 little "traditions" which are overboard military-meets-redneck-obsessivism. If that is a word. ..... If you have ever been there, then you will know what I mean. Agree on the cat claw...LOL. That is dumb.

of course, UT has the horns, TT has the guns, and TAMU has the thumb thing. but, did you know...

- hold up four fingers and you have the Baylor bear claw.
- hold up index and middle finger for the SMU pony ears.
- Houston uses fingers 1, 2, and 4 for the cougar claw.
- my personal favorite - Houston Baptist University. Start with the Hook em Horns, but oppose fingers 2 and 3 with your thumb. thus, you have the Husky.

it's true these guys aint football players... they are dckk suckers.

it wasn't just a pssy pink ribbon on the helmets they were wearing. They all wear pink panties everyday. Really tight hot pink thongs wedged hard into their tuna melts.

I seriously challenge their manhood.

This coming from a fan of a school whose greeting call is a mixed drink for women.

Like he said though, A&M has a ton of hand signals. The fist for Gig'em. Also, hold two hands together to form a gun and lift one leg while pointing towards the sky and many other variations of that. I thought it was kinda neat. But I am just an ole redneck State fan driving a Z71 and drinking "the beast" at deer camp.
