    Texas OU or Rockets practice? Tough choice. I'll watch the game of the year in the Big 12.

    I taped the UT Arkansas game to go to the Toyota Center open house. It was bad luck :D

    ...and many others will be out of town for the same reason.

    Another case of extremely poor planning by the organization. I would be shocked if this were attended by too many people.

    RRS, Miami v. FSU are not the only two big hottly contested games on Saturday. There could be another shootout here in Texas with Baylor making the trip to visit the twelfth boy and the wrecked crew.

    (that too, by the way, will be happening during this event)

    Florida sucks.

    OU sucks but their sucking is not due to their football team.

    I refuse to go to HornFans or even so much as open a RRS thread, so this is the closest I come to posting on it. I need to hear some good trash though.

    Could you please elaborate?

    Haven't been to the new Arena yet. Does anyone know if it's free parking like at Compaq? Wouldn't be suprised though if there is a charge for parking now.
