9am: ROAD TRIP!!!!

Traci, Ros, Steph and I made the two hour trip to College Station, TX this weekend to watch Texas A&M play Texas Tech. The trip of course starts late...but after everyone gets picked up...we begin the search for healthy fast food. This can always be a challenge, but Steph had her eyes on this morning and spotted an AWESOME Mexican restaurant. They gave us HUGE orange juices...that really turned out to be Sunny D. Yummy.

(I tried to find a more recent pic of the Aggies, but couldn't....so here ya go. Spring '06)

So we roll up to the pitch and they have just kicked off, and Texas A&M has just put one under the posts. From the time we park the car, walk across the street they have already put another try on the scoreboard. So Ros and I run over to the TX Tech coach and ask if they want any whores (we brought our kits!). They are down to 13, so we boot up and get on the field by half.

I'll give you the ending first...76-0. BUT!! The score was 48 or so to 0 at the half, so we managed to slow those girls down! It was a hard fought battle, and Texas A&M is great at creating those overloads, and eventually we couldn't stop them. But we held them to less trys than in the first half.

So a shout-out to Tech and their hard work. They are a young team that shows alot of potential. Get ball-hungry girls and NEVER leave a mate alone. Always find her. As always Texas A&M is a great program and always perform well. Good luck next week against those crazy EUI bitches. Yes I said bitches.
