Monday, November 6, 2023 – My Monday After Saturday College Football Awards
In order to keep up with the important things of life … It appears that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will be spending Thanksgiving together. I have not received their RSVP if they plan to come to my house for the holidays.
My one and only award today is the James Murray Spangler award. It goes to every football team that hiked the ball this weekend. Who was James Murray Spangler and why is every team getting this award?
Spangler invented the upright suction carpet sweeper. He sold the invention to his cousin Hoover who called it the Hoover Electric Suction Sweeper or the Hoover Vacuum. Why? Because every game sucked! In fact, this entire season sucks. In fact, every game was so bad, I turned to the ID Crime channel for something interesting and exciting. Spoiler Alert: It is always the spouse!
Close games. Overtimes. Missed field goals. Missed winning field goals. Bad penalties called. No penalties called. And injuries all around. If it weren’t for bad luck, the Aggies would have no luck at all. My Big Solid Swear Jar had a dollar in it before I even sat down to watch the game.. Twenty-five cents on the first play of the game.
Which brings us to the segway. There is a saying in Aggieland – Highway 6 runs both directions. It means if things are not going to your liking, or in this case, the liking of the Alumni with big incomes, it is time to hit the road and head north or south, Jimbo. I must admit the hopes were high. But it has been five years and Jimbo’s record is the same as Sumlin’s, minus Drake and other rappers. Such a disappointment!
I am happy that basketball season begins at Reed Arena this week. On that bounce, you be happy too. Stay safe.
Here's What I'm Thinking 
I tolerated the Old Miss game and paid some attention to A &M. LSU game was interesting because of two qb. Football does such this year.
