There is no team in the Big 12 that I like, with the exception of Texas. There are a couple teams in the Big 12 I nothing. And there are teams in the Big 12 I actively root against, except where they're the lesser of two evils. But even then, I don't root for them. I root against their opponent.

Examples:

- If Nebraska and Oklahoma are playing, I'm hoping for Oklahoma to lose. I'm not rooting for Nebraska to win, if that makes sense.

- Likewise, if Nebraska and USC are playing, I'm hoping for USC to lose. This has nothing to do with conference pride, and everything to do with my hatred for USC.

- If Texas is playing Nebraska, I'm hoping Texas wins.

- If Texas is playing Oklahoma, I'm hoping Texas wins and Stoops resigns and future recruits decide not to play for Oklahoma because it's a crappy program and . . . you get the picture.

- If Oklahoma and TAMU are playing, I'm hoping to see some injuries and the first-ever game where both teams lose.

In other words, screw conference pride. That's the point I'm making. I will never "get behind" any team in the Big 12 for the sake of conference pride. It's only an accident of circumstance that would ever make me wish something to happen that's in the interests of another program.

Do you nothing me? You can tell me.

I nothing your clique. I'm not hurt or anything about not getting drafted. Not at all. I'm totally over it.

Nice, cheering for an injury.

They deserve it after that dirty late hit.

Which? The early one on the sideline where the RB got pushed out of bounds? That one was definitely a late hit, no doubt about it, but it wasn't really violent or anything. Just a slight push.

One of the guys on the sideline got hurt as a result, I think. It's karma.

And the hit on Bradford was clean. I'm glad he got exposed.
