Friday, August 18, 2023 – Big Ball’s in Cowtown and Big Bubba Too!
Big Ball’s in Cowtown; we’ll all gone down,
Big ball’s in Cowtown; we’ll dance around. Yee haw!
Anybody who hung out in Texas for any period of time, knows that song is from the King of Western Swing, the great Bob Wills.
I have always thought the lines meant a big dance in Fort Worth. It seems another version begins with Big Balls in Cowtown, with no verb implied and perhaps an inuendo of male body parts. And there is a version that begins with Big Boy in Cowtown. And is there ever a Big Boy in Cowtown this football season. Meet Big Bubba – Brione “Big Bubba” Ramsey-Brooks. Big Bubba is 6’5 and weighs 455 lbs. He is a freshman at TCU in Fort Worth. He plays in the offensive line. He is the offensive line!
He won two State Championship at Dallas South Oak Cliff High School in 2021. The article sounds as though he won the state championship by himself and maybe he did.
Four hundred and fifty-five pounds. What did and does he eat? How much does it cost to feed him for just a week? Where does he find clothes? Does TCU have to order a special XXXX Large uniform?
HWIT, that is very large person. I do not do math, but he could be at least five Carolyn Sues, at least five, if not six Jannes, four or five Barbaras, and at least three and a half of me!
That is going to be a lot of purple across that big body. Good luck Bubba!
In other football news Stanford graduate, concert pianist, member of Augusta National Golf Club, and former Secretary of State under George W. Bush, and current director of the Hoover Institute at Stanford University, Condoleeza Rice and Former President George W. Bush, whose wife Laura graduated from Southern Methodist University, are lobbying to get Stanford and SMU into the ACC. Goodness, George, you already got her library! But I suppose a new football conference is the perfect gift for the woman who has everything.
HWIT – College football is getting weirder by the day. And it is only a few more days away and I can’t wait.
Pray for rain. Pray for Maui. Peace out.
Here's What I'm Thinking 
That is one BIG boy-man! my concern is his health I wish I could figure out a solution for Stanford and others -just doesn’t seem fair to me to have these monopolies like the SEC. It is all big business- SHOW ME THE MONEY – the oil barons, trains, etc
