141 Days until kickoff and...The asterisk is gone.
Apparently we haven't talked about the asterisk enough, so here you go. And by the way, I have the "real" picture of it at the bottom.

[REDACTED] The asterisk is coming down, per Tim Griffin’s reporting. The bonuses, however, will stay. Mack Brown claims to have known nothing about this, and may not have–given his status as crusin’ CEO-type coach, it’s probably shocking how many things go on every day that he doesn’t know about. For example? No clue about Will Muschamp’s man-on-bear fighting pit beneath the covered practice facility. Shhhhhhh!

"You know that asterisk, the one attached to the 2008 season and listed under Big 12 champions in the Texas team meeting room? The asterisk that set off a mini-firestorm on blogs in the last 24 hours after the media discovered it Sunday?
Apparently, it's all a mistake, the result of misunderstanding at Texas or perhaps a joke in a staff meeting.
Anyhow, when asked about the asterisk on Monday, coach Mack Brown expressed surprise. If Texas was making a statement, it was news to Brown, according to officials in Austin. Brown said the mistake would be corrected. So expect the "2008*" to be erased soon under the Big 12 champions heading.\
It was fun while it lasted."
Bonuses for assistants, but not Brown

In a related story from the koolaid drinkers at OUinsider.com, Jim "Traibor tired of the upside down Whorn signs?? " Jim Trabor is a buffoon who once had a chance at a lucrative career in the bigs, but like so many blew his money trying to prove to everyone back in Oklahoma how "Big Time" he was. Trabor's only purpose in life besides being the butt of his wife's jokes is to rile up OU fans on that joke of a radio station "The Sports Animal." Every day we should say a little thank you in our prayers for Satellite Radio. Trabor might be a little upset that we don't reciprocate the obsession that the Votech in Stillwater has for beating OU. Such a dilemna. sigh.....
Oh, the best thing about Jim Trabor other than when he signs off is his drinking game courtesy of the lost ogle.
