- the use of lists is a PRIME texdawg troupe. Always with the lists this guy
- TWO NOUN NAME! Tex-dawg... Texas-squid... spooky (adjective)
- the profanity. He may not use it... but my god he wants to. The Wilkerson convos are a must read as he and others are like a fully clogged toilet just waiting to spill the expletives.
- I only used 4 because I clicked enter and it led me here. Don't misconstrue this as me not having respect for ol Tex. I like the man and am a fellow Texan myself, but he may be both Dawg and Squid and in turn a secret horn.... @texdawg

Well. I guess I should be honored.
I went through the Texas thread just to read this Texas squid. He certainly made some points like I would make. He was certainly on the sensible side.
Except when he talked about Zeus. He doesn't know what he is talking about concerning Zeus. Heck - none of us do.
Ironically, my daughters name is Sydney and her nick name is squid.
But - I'm not actually a Texan. Lived here most my life - but I'm a Georgia boy - Carroll County. My wife and kids are Texans - I'm not.
I'm as far from a Texas fan as they come. Of all my football offers - I never even considered Texas. I met with Fred Akers, the Texas coach at the time, and discussed attending Texas. I met him at Texas Stadium the week of the 84' Cotton Bowl as they were preparing to play Georgia. I was wearing a Georgia sweatshirt.
But really - I'm on Dawgnation way too much - it's impossible to be on another forum.
But you are absolutely correct about one thing - I never cuss - but @swilkerson73 has certainly pushed my buttons.
Seems like @texdawg made me stop and think for a second. Like he usually does with his quality offerings.
'Twas someting rather simple and trivial about the word "cuss" with this.
Used to hear that term all the time coming up. Hardly ever hear it anymore. Seems that word has lost a lot of its fastball these days.
It is rare to know who anyone is out here in the Ether. It is nice when someone is respectful and welcoming of other's opinions. That makes for the best community--even if we don't know the person behind comments.
Well said, Mr. Elliott
Carroll Co. here too amigo!
Well defended. We'll let it stand.
Referencing your amount of time on here really tipped the balance. All jokes aside, I really appreciate what you bring to the forum and I couldn't pass on the opportunity to crack on ya a little bit. Go Dawgs, amigo.
Alls good my friend.
And I enjoyed the ribbing.
But I have never liked Texas. Especially after the Sugar Bowl - as the other Dawg fans living in the Lone Star state can attest too.
Oh I know how horns fans can be. I had two buddies play for UT under Charlie Strong (Malcolm Brown & Mykkele Thompson) went to a game to see them play wearing my West Texas A&M University Buffaloes shirt because I thought it'd be hilarious and people would think I was an Aggie... it was brutal and kind of awesome. Lol
The fact that WT's colors are also Maroon and White are pivotal to that story.
I had forgotten you were from Carroll Co. where I lived for 25 years while I coached/taught at UWG. Even more reason to keep you in high esteem.
Yep. Carrollton, Whitesburg and Bowden (via Woodland, AL) are my roots
Southwire is the reason we relocated to Texas. Dad was transferred here and we decided to stay.
More like SquidBilly. I kid, I kid. Tex is ok in my book.
