I guess you are forced to reply to everything anyone says about the hogs, sorry I didn't realize that. You're a bigger troll than anyone on hear and honestly you remind me of a 4 yo. You start losing a debate and then will constantly change subjects and accuse someone of trolling. You're a riot!! I can't help but feel sorry for you


You changed the subject about 3 times on this thread alone, lol. I guess I'm guilty of following your lead on trolling, lol. As far as answering the responses, I once asked you why you didn't quote to whom your posts were addressed, you had some weak answer. I'll leave this one for you. I'm going to watch the game, have a good rest of the year.

Uapb. Another sister school neutral site.

UAMS do the concessions?

Bert can handle the concession as long as people are ok with paying for a $5 coke and only getting it half full

I don't know, how much has an in-state school offered to play? I don't make those decisions, and really what does that have to do with year 4? Are you trolling this topic? And lastly, we have discussed this topic forever, you seem to be the one who's had one too many elephant walks or parties to remember it. If you'd like to talk about the coaching staff or job without strawman posts, feel free, if not, find someone else.
I feel sorry for those that accept mediocrity and then try to defend it!

If Arkansas decides to replace BB, how much will it cost in $$$$?  He is paid a very high salary and didn't he just get a raise and an extension.  I'm thinking that was a for sure mistake, thought so when they did it.  Colleges in too big a hurry to reward mediocre results.  If they replace him who do we go after?  I think you spend to get a truly top 10 guy if you are serious about an opportunity to win the SEC and a shot at the National Title. I was supportive of him at first, cuz that's what you should do, but I haven't seen the kind of results that the paycheck warrants.

Obv, you've never been to a game in Fayetteville,

They don't have Coke nor are they $5.00.

Everything is coke to me, it's a southern thing that carpetbaggers wouldn't understand

Haha.... I don't drink soft drinks very much, but the times I do everything is "pop". It doesn't matter if it is Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, Coke, or Pepsi. It is all pop to me.

Blanche Lincoln? She wasn't around Arkansas a whole lot after she made the big time. I guess she had forgot her roots....

So after speaking specifically you're going with broad definitions? I'll keep that in mind.  You did use the capital "c".

The Coke change to Pepsi on the UA Campus was a huge deal. Jokes are still ongoing.

I'm a full southerner and to even hint Dr. Pepper is "Coke" is blasphemy.

But I'll note your loose vernacular for future conversations on this matter.

Sorry that was probably siri correcting it for me. She's a carpetbagger too

Well, I grew up a coke was a carbonated beverage. I'll ask my kids if the want to stop at Sonic and get a coke, we'll order a Dr. Pepper, Root beer, Diet Coke, and usually, a Coca-Cola.

A "full" southerner would know that rice, that's why I'm doubtful of his roots. Got to be some yankee in there somewhere not to know that

My oldest just took a job in Chicago, I asked him why???? Of course, he's in L.A. on the beach this weekend at his girlfriend's parent's house, so he's not crazy.

I guess they should shoot all those race horses after their maiden race because they didn't win. Good thing no horse has ever won a race, or the Triple Crown because they didn't win recovery time out. I'd try a different analogy next time

You know he isn't going to fired, and about a 90-95% chance he's here for year 6. I guess you just like to argue about it. We aren't losing money, so we'll saddle up again and see what happens. In two years, it may be glue factory time, put the Roses around his neck, or he goes to another pasture on his own.
lol...you don't comprehend well do you...and you call people ignorant? I said after he doesn't produce...like after several races ya know...well it's been four seasons of races. You are the big frat boy know it all...I guess you and your opinion is the only one that matters. Like I said, your opinion matters no more or no less than mine or anyone's else's regardless of how much you think you are better than everyone else on this board...

You do know what a Maiden race is? It isn't their first race, it's for horses that haven't won a race yet. It couldn't be in their first year, or it could be in their fifth, speaking of ignorant.....You must really have low self-esteem to spend your time personally attacking my positions. I've never said my opinions were better than anyone's, now I assume like you, I believe in my opinions, thus the reason I stand by them. Try to have a good 2017, and if you don't like my opinions, don't read them, obviously they get your blood pressure up.

You are getting  D- in parenting Rice. Not for the job in Chicago but dating a girl whose parents live in Cali...... ugh... NADA...NOPE...Never. =)

BTW - I should by a Grandpa sometime in July. Getting soft in my old age. I think I will even let Mack keep posting after March Madness. Might even buy him a steak sometime. It is tough being a Razorback fan....might even pay for him to have desert.

Dear lord you are dense...yes we all know what a maiden race is...what would that have to do with a horse that hasn't won in four years and is getting worse? And yes, it isn't just me...you think that you are right, your opinions are all that counts over everyone on here. You argue everyone's point. It's like you and CBB are brothers or something. If he makes a sharp left turn you will lose your nose...lol...and yes he is here for at least another year...that's not knowledge that only the great Rice knows. It's because of his buyout. Jeff Long your other brother screwed that one up. He as well needs to go...Keep enjoying mediocrity and your frat brothers grilling out, it seems to fit you well...same goes for me, if you don't like what I post then hit the ignore button... ;) ;)

One last comment, it seems according to you, I'm not allowed to have my opinions, but you are? I comment on something when I disagree with it, much like others do, it's a message board. It would seem in your way of thinking, you would never respond to my posts, you know everyone says their bit? Only you try to insult with some little ditty you think is funny. I've got thick skin, you can't offend me no matter how many times you try.

UA needs to have a plan before they fire one of the average coaches if they hope to get a better one.

There is a difference in offering your opinion and telling people they are morons for offering their opinion...you should try some tact...as for the insults...you sure don't seem to be ignoring them, you keep replying...
