From Here It's Possible.

From Here It's Possible. If you're unfamiliar with the marketing genius that is this slogan, allow me to introduce you to the mighty Red Raiders of Texas Tech University. Give us the respect we deserve people. That's right - respect. R-E-S-P-E-C-T! On this the first day of November two thousand and eight, the almighty Longhorns have fallen. The overrated, cheatin' tail, WERE number one ranked Texas Longhorns have come to Lubbock and left empty handed. I'd like to take a second to pay homage to Graham Harrell and Michael Crabtree, the greatest quarterback/wide receiver duo in Red Raider history- may they have continued success in their future endeavors. They've made my world, as a fan, a better place. And for this I am truly grateful. Fan- the word fan- it's a beautiful thing isn't it? It brings me to my acceptance speech, as one of the greatest TTU football fans of all time. I'd like to accept this award on behalf of the Big 12. I'd especially like to thank one Mike Leach for making this all possible, special shout outs to Barron Batch, Detron Lewis, and of course the two loves of my life- Graham and Michael- BFF you guys! As I move on to the responses of my tag (thanks Lees) I leave you with this. Are you really a fan? Does your stomach get tied up in knots when you're watching? Does your chest hurt when your team's down? Do you tie your over-sized flag to your back like a cape and run down the street when your team wins? Do you go to bed thinking "Gosh, I'm part of the bigger picture. My alma mater could change the world someday?" That's right, I'm questioning your fanhood peeps...I'm a fan. Are you?!

Texas Tech University- From Here It's Possible.

Okay, so I've been tagged and I'm supposed to write 6 quirky things about myself. If quirky means awesome, we could be here a while. I'm kidding. Here goes:

1. I generally won't pay for a sandwich. It's a weird thing for me. I feel like it's the ONE thing you can always make at home.

2. I don't eat eggs, and I've never had a banana. Both equally have no appeal. Apparently that's abnormal.

3. I need for people to say Bless you when I sneeze. If you don't, I judge, then you're generally screwed with me forever. I'm so serious about that it makes my eyes water just thinking about it.

4. I remember people by their outfits. I also unknowingly track other people's outfits- like by number of times worn, what's changed in the outft and do you own multiple pieces of the same clothing in different colors.

5. I hate naked people on tv. I'm semi-uncomfortable with nudity other than my own and Ant's. I cover my eyes or change the channel when I see it even if I'm alone.

Drum roll please...

6. Somewhere in my little brain I've actually convinced myself that the entire cast of the show Friends, are my actual friends. Therefore, when I've had a bad day or don't feel well I watch my DVDs and talk back to the screen. Even when I read articles or hear news about any of the cast members, I tend to take it extremely personally like they should be calling me any minute to tell me if it's true or not. Now I'm not sure if that's quirky or plain scary, but it's what I do.

I Baracked my vote last week, and I'm proud of it! If you haven't already- don't forget to VOTE!

Until next time- it's just the BEST day in the life!

RAID-ER POW-ER!!!
