    As a Longhorn fan, and a fan of underdog teams, nothing made me happier than to see Boise St. rise up and beat the Sooners last year in the Fiesta Bowl. To add to the charm of the story, Ian Johnson proposed to his cheerleader girlfriend on the sideline after the game, capturing the attention of people across the nation in one of the "biggest upsets in college football ever."

    Well, seems like this story has a disturbing update.

    Sounds like Ian Johnson is receiving death threats due to his impending interracial marriage. That stuff just pisses me off.... :mad: It pisses me off that people are so hung up on appearance and other people's lives that they use their energy to bring others down rather than trying to find a way to make a positive difference in the world.....

    That Game still might have been the greatest games in the history of football. I can't recall more trick plays and drama and then to top it all of, a magical storybook gutsy go-for-the-win 2 point conversion on the never ever EVER used statue of Liberty play and then the cherry on the top... proposing to the cheerleader he loved.



    Hell, Ian Johnson should have 10 white concubines just for being a part of it.

    Yeah I agree.. That was probably one of the craziest games ever. And how he proposed to her at the end, I bet girls were creaming their pants (because it was so romantic). ;) :D

    But yeah... he's an odd looking gentleman.. Something just doesn't look right.
    And don't ask how its relevant. It's relevant because he's marrying a hot girl..

    Also before you flame me, YES I AM a good looking guy. LOL

    Worst game in the history of life to me...

    Zabransky (tattoo and all) makes his typical idiotic pick late in the 4th. Should cost them the game. Luckily their coach calls some ingenuous gimmicks to save the day.

    But somehow it is Zabransky that is labeled as the hero? He single handedly put his team in jeopardy! The next thing I know he is on the cover of video games and the Texans actually pay that piece of trash? Jesus...

    He's not bad looking... yes, a bit odd... I think it's call GregOdenitis, looking a decade or two older than your actual age. His case is rather mild, however, compare to a certain recent NBA draftee.

    People still live in the dark ages I guess.

    On a side note, did anyone notice the girl's last name is :popadics or (Pop-a-dics) ;)
