"Putin hated Secretary Clinton so much, the flip side of that coin was he had a clear preference for the person running against the person he hated," Comey said.

"That might work on Saturday afternoon, when my wife's Red Raiders are playing the Texas Longhorns. She really likes the Red Raiders," Conaway said. "But all the rest of the time ... logic is, that because he really didn't like candidate Clinton that he automatically liked Trump. That assessment's based on what?"

"Whoever the Red Raiders are playing, you want the Red Raiders to win. By definition, you want their opponent to lose," the director said, later explaining that when one side wins, the other side loses.

And just like the football game, the ratings were virtually nonexistent because it aired during a time slot when no one was watching on a network no one could find.

If my wife were a tech grad, I would not be caught dead stating it publicly. You might as well just hang up a sign outside your house that says, "Diseased ho lives here, bang at your own risk."

What's funny about this statement is that the Texas-Tech game at 11 a.m. on Nov. 5, 2016 had more than a million viewers, more than that night's primetime games on ESPNU and ESPN2 (as well as the head-to-head 11 a.m. game on ESPN2).

Yet you think A&M-Mississippi State (an Aggie loss) got more than a million viewers... at 11 a.m.... on the SEC Network? Laughable.

That is some fantastic cherry picking right there to try and ignore the reality that nobody in Texas bothers to watch the Lil 10 since Daddy A&M left

My respect for the federal government just dropped to a level that heretofore I considered impossible to achieve.

OK. Based on reported numbers

Last year, Texas televised football games drew 29.377 million viewers on obscure channels that no one can get,

while Texas A&M 27.319 viewers on the world's best contracted college football television platform.

Texas played two games on Longhorn Network, you played four games on SEC Network. All of those ratings are unlisted. I'll cancel out two/two and give you a very, very generous 1.5 million viewers for the remaining SEC Network games. I also split the numbers in half on the one Texas game that was ABC regional.

Texas 29.377 viewers > A&M 28.819.

We outdrew you with a third losing season in a row on channels everyone insists "no one can find."

What happened to all that aggie excitement about having a good football team?

How can Texas -- with a third losing season in a row -- achieve television viewer parity (on channels no one can find), with the most loyal fanbase in the world, who play all their games on the best televisions channels in the universe?

Hey etexorange, you had more sips watching on TV because no one went to any of your games. They just stayed home.

Something seems off. You said you split regional numbers in half, but then show the same number.

If your wife were a red Raider she'd be pullin' 6 figs, have every eye ball in the joint on her. And you'd feel like a bad ass and a million bucks just out of association. Besides antibiotics are cheap.

Stealing figs and other arboreal fruit is not the handsome racket it once was
