Maybe 3rd there was 100k at Michigan for the A&M game

There were much much more than 100K there yesterday!
Arlington Police said there were between 500k-700k there yesterday.

With the absolute cluster that leaving that area was, and the cell phone issues, and just knowing that we didn't see nearly everyone and every place there, 700k makes total sense

I'm actually expected to watch Aggie football today without a winning baseball team to distract me?

Same thing happened to me on Thursday with my Director. Didn't realize talking about it didn't get me upset until 30 minutes later. What a feeling

Anyone know the story as to why Chuck Morgan went to KC in 2002 (only)?
I always heard he had a falling out with the club over his son not getting drafted ... can't remember which son, or exactly what year - but it seems like he was a catcher. Rumor was that Chuck had a Mike Piazza-like understanding with the Rangers' baseball ops guys that they would select his son with the team's last pick - remember when Piazza was the Dodgers' pick in like the 60th round because Lasorda was his godfather or close friend of the family or something ...

Not sure how true all of that is, but the fact is that the Rangers didn't make the pick and Morgan took off. The other connection was that the Rangers director of marketing in the late '90s was a guy named Charlie Seraphin, who was technically Morgan's boss. Seraphin's last season with Texas was 2001 and he was hired for the same position in KC. There was no love lost between Seraphin and the Rangers, so it wouldn't surprise me if he knew Morgan was disgruntled with the club and then went after him hard to jump ship and come to KC.

I always just assumed cooler heads prevailed after that 2002 season - Morgan realized he should be in Texas, and the Rangers realized they needed him in the booth. So he was back after one year.

Take it for what it's worth ... but that's what was going around the water cooler in the early aughts ...

I have that same photo. I was a classmate of his son, Aaron, at Pantego Christian Academy during the the 80's. Aaron played at Martin with Tim Grieve and Todd Van Poppel while I was playing at Lamar.
Hey! I was at PCA in the 80's as well but don't remember Sundberg's kid being there. I was there like 82 to 85-ish


Yep. He left for Junior High after the spring of '84, I think. Lamar Johnson's kid, Brian was also in our class. Brian Jorgensen's son was a year behind me, and I recall that Danny Darwin's daughter was a few years younger. There must've been others. These kids of veterans must've felt like army brats after a while, and this was back in the time when money still mattered to most of the guys.


Yep, I was further back in class with Jorgensen's kid. 3rd grade back in '83.

When the Ags make a shyyyty play, my Ag buddy is texting me "Go Rangers" to mitigate the pain.

I'm getting a lot of texts.

Every time the Ags screw up, I'm gonna post 3 Texas Ranger players I grew up rooting for. I hope I don't run out of names, but it will be peace-restoring to name some old Ranger greats.

Definitely apathetic towards the Ags but will probably still be hurt when the Boys lose to Philly…

Don't let this pathetic A&M football season distract you from the fact that the Texas Rangers are the 2023 World Series Champions!

So crazy watching Bochy just pull every string correctly for a month after watching Jimbo be wrong in every single way imaginable for years.

After the intensity of those playoff games, the level of apathy I feel watching this is astounding. I genuinely think this football program will never win the National Championship and I genuinely don't care at this point. It ain't my money they're wasting

Seriously, was there one decision Bochy made that didn't work out in the playoffs? We even went 3-0 in the games that Grossman started haha.
