Texas Longhorns

[MULDOON]

I am not , Let me repeat,,, I am not a Texas Longhorn fan,
The only time that i have ever cheered them on was when Sims choked . and they brought the Major Applewhite off the bench to save the day.
I was cheering more for him , then the longhorns.
I actually was thinking about cheering for the longhorns, in the rose bowl , seeing that the Mighty Texas Aggies decided to take the year off
I figured if I took a long hot shower , after the game . I would be able to wash off the shame of cheering for the longhorns.

Any way I saw a cute poem about the longhorns , and I figured I'd pass it on, So Enjoy.....................

Twas the night of the RoseBowl...and all through the land,
All the Longhorns were stirring, even the band.
The tickets were purchased for the game, room, and air...
In hopes that Saint Vincent would soon be there!!!
The fans were tailgating from their truck beds,
while visions of a championship danced in their heads.

And Bevo in his bridle, and me in my cap
Had just popped a cold one before the first snap.
When out on the turf there arose such a clatter,
I sprang to my feet to see what was the matter!!
My eyes fixed on the tunnel, and the thundering herd;
The roar of the fight song; I sang every word!!
They ran to the end zone, and knelt to their maker...
Giving thanks for Texas, and the victory later!
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear.
Coach Mack in his glory, "THE HEAD COACH OF THE YEAR"!!

And our hero from Houston that I haven't seen since;
I knew in a moment it must be "Saint Vince"!
More rapid than eagles his posse they came...
And he whistled and called him by name!!!

Now, Thomas! Now, Taylor! Now, Pittman and Sweed!
On Charles! On, Griffin! Ross, Huff, and McGee!
To the top of the world for a championship crown!
Now dash away dash away, to a Texas Touchdown!
They fought with fury! They fought with might!
They fought like champions on this championship night!
Oh! The bombs they flew, and the holes blew open...

The Longhorns ran the ball just as we were hoping.
The defense attacked, and oh, they played hard!
Stopping the Trojans, in thier own back yard!
Mack's eyes how they twinkled, his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, the crystal ball he did carry!
He embraced his coaches, he embraced his team!
And "The Eyes of Texas" we all did sing
A season that will live forever in lore;
Come Early, Wear Orange, Stay Late, once more!

I am with you 100%. That is the only time I remember cheering for the Longhorns, too.

You might need some diesel and a brillo pad for that shower. ;-)
