[QUOTE]Originally posted by bdgee: [QB] effection? gads... I *hope* that's not a real word! hahahaha Look it up. I ain't the first to so use it. Yep, that buffoon Clements was a good approximation of what dubya would perfect. And check this out. As governor he appointed Bum Bright to the A&M Board at the same time as he was sitting on the SMU Board. One of his close buddies and business partners was at that same time on slipped onto TCU Board sort of politically. I don't recall the tie, but there was also representation at Texas Tech. Within a couple of years, those three schools all were under serious investigation by the NCAA for football and baskeball violations. (It should also be noted that, concurrently, their "group" bought the Dallas Cowboys from Murchinson and brought on the worst times for that team.) All three schools were caught red handed paying not small amounts to football players and basketball players and warned to cease, but the "group" continued to play republican party games and used the athletic programs of the schools as toys and favor for the party, which became the money source for player generosity. They were caught again and all were punished, SMU actually getting the kiss of death penalty. THAT is what actually broke the old Southwest Conference. It had been the strongest of all the football conferences since the early 60s and within five years of being used as a political favor by the "group" it was reduced to a scandal with several of its schools having hardly enough scholarships (due to NCAA penalties) to field teams that could compete at all. What that all proves is, if you don't finish high school and by hook or crook manage to come into ownership of one of the biggest trucking companies in the world and get to be fabulously wealthy, you tharby can become a republican power broker and get to be smart enough to be the Chairman of the A&M Board and order all them thar ed-jew-katted smart-mouth liberal professors around and then get high on imported whiskey and brag about it to the "groups" in their private box at Texas Stadium.
