Mike..you and I have been through this. I have tried to explain how I feel. You don't understand my thoughts...and I don't understand yours!
I am a LONGHORN.
As you know, I rec'd my undergrad at UT. Yes, I did go to grad school at UH. I wish them nothing but the best. Both of my parents graduated from UH. I actually support all the schools within the state. I think it would be great if we could keep all of our athletes within Texas.
If a school in Texas is playing a school outside of Texas...that is who I am cheering for!!
That being said, UT is #1 in my book.
Oh yeah...and what you said about "not understanding the coogs hatred for the Horns".....honestly, I have A LOT of friends who are coogs. My parents are (as I said before), I went to UH, the majority of my cousins are cougars. They don't hate UT. None of them do. When my ex husband was playing at UT, they were all there watching and supporting the horns! I honestly don't think all cougars hate UT.
I am done with this thread. You and I have done this before. We are both very strong and opinionated people. I am not going to change my mind and neither are you.
My advice to everyone out there: SUPPORT WHOEVER YOU WANT!!! THAT IS YOUR RIGHT!!
