Craig James is all in on that Senate run, bitchez. Happy holidays, bowl viewers.
(Oh, and note the change in tone from ESPN, which manages to reference both Mike Leach and Sherwood Blount in the article.)

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
Yes, that is a decidedly (and quote suddenly) icy tone in that article, isn’t it?

What are the chances Craigy’s career-change decision was assisted by the Leach situation with ESPN?
I mean, it *could* be the case…

“In his book “Gameday,” James wrote: “I’m not going to sit here and tell you I never received a nickel during my playing days. But I can say with certainty that no benefits were ever extended to me from anyone associated with the SMU administration.”
So…you cheated.

Yeah, it turns out that it’s illegal either way, buddy. That’s like saying, “I’m not going to tell you that I didn’t buy some cocaine, but I never bought any cocaine from undercover cops.” Well, it’s still illegal.

I’m not going to sit here and tell you that I will never receive a nickel from special interests to buy my vote during my Senate career. But I can say with certainty that no benefit will be accepted by me until it has been laundered through a third party, just like I did it in college.

What does it say about us that we’d rather have this rocket surgeon getting a shot a governing us than broadcasting our sporting events? (Believe me when I say that I’d rather have this rocket surgeon getting a shot a governing us than broadcasting our sporting events).
Are we all just hoping he loses and we never hear from him again? (Believe me when I say that I’m just hoping he loses and we never hear from him again).
But, I think, the alternative is terrifying-er.

Love Ron White. One correction, that should be “and my state is putting in an Express Lane.” Damn shame states rights is long gone, Texas would use theirs, and they wouldn’t allow 11+ years to debate the process of appeal either. If they just had trees, mountains, pork BBQ, and better college football.
