Later in the hour BJ "The Shocker" Symmons will be on the Jim Rome show. I've already fired off a "Shocker" e-mail. Hopefully, Rome will ask him about it.

Just thought I'd let you clowns know.

Texas Tech is Texas A&M's Daddy! I will never again question the superiority of Texas Tech!

Who cares what Jim "Small Man Complex" Rome has to say or ask anyone?

Keep me updated on what THE B.J. says. We get Rome much later in the day on our local radio.

Thanks!

I heard Chance Mock is going to be on Dr Phil's show later today talking about how to deal with mean unsupportive crowds........

Jessup, you actually email Jim Rome?

Was there a reason that BJ threw up "the shocker"? Or was it just an inside thing with is people?

Did anyone see Derrick Lowe do the Suck It sign to the A's dugout after the last out?!

I can't get it in my office. I'm hoping someone else will update us on what he said . . . and whether Rome asked him about "The Shocker". I just heard about it on my way back from lunch.

And yes, I listen to Rome when I get the chance. I think he's pretty funny. Some people don't like him. I get that.

P.S. -- You did hear what he said about us didn't you! I've forgiven him.

Rome just said that BJ was accepted at Harvard.

Now's he's bagging on Hanspard for the 0.00 GPA.

I thought BJ did a good job.


I can sense the slightest human suffering.
Sensing anything now?

NOthing about the shocker.

Col., I like Rome, but I hate all those tools that call in with their scripted "takes".

99% I think Rome is a Hypocritical midget, the other 1% of the time I think he is funny as sh*t, unfortunately he is the only sports I can listen to when I run during lunch...

How about Manny walking halfway to 1st base after that homerun, and then pointing to his boys?

Cajun, he did get accepted to Harvard.....Also was recrutied originally by Leach at OU, and followed him to Tech. He like A&M in High School, but you guys showed him no interest. Pity.........

Yeah, Rome brought it up, I'm pretty sure he made it up.

I know, I wanted to take a bat and shove it up his butt to make him run around the bases....Todd Walker hit 3 HRs in the series and you never saw him do that, nor does he get paid $15Mil/year...

Actually, I think Symmons signed with Spike's crew and Leach came the next year.

Correct DD, but he was also recruited by Leach....

That's correct DD.

So what else was said?

BJ has thrown up the shocker for years. It is like a "whats up" to his boys, as they always did in HS.

I don't care whether they've done it for years or not, I wanted it to be a topic in the Jungle again. The clones would have gone crazy!

Still, the Harvard thing was comedy enough.

Just found this gem on the football board:

Symons, who ranked in the top 15 percent of his class at Houston Cypress Creek High School, was once recruited academically by Harvard. He took the SAT only once -- as a junior -- and scored over 1,100. Randall Symons surmised that had his son tried again, his score could have been off the charts for your average student-athlete.

---

Somehow I doubt he was recruited "academically" with his 1100 on the SAT. Hell, I got 290 points better than that, and I took it my junior year (as if that matters). I guess BJ's dad would tell you I'd have gotten a 1650 if I'd have taken it again.

Harvard? Not so much.

That's like saying "real classy for a tech student".

BTW, both my kids made 1020 on the SAT.....




.....when they took it in the 7th grade.

wow, an 1100!!!!!!!
