I knew you were! I have been sitting here laughing about this article -- their AD is nuts! Guess he and the Nebraska AD have a lot in common!
Barry Sanders is neat! I really like him.

Larry Merchant..the sportswriter and TV acommentator..years ago was a sports columnist for the NY Post..the wrote a book 20 years ago called the "National Football lottery"..about the betting on pro-football..but it's the introductory chapters which are a hoot..he grew up in the Bronx, was all city in football, and accepted a scholarship to OU because he wanted to play for Bud..he'd never been out of NYC till then, and he describes the culture shock...well worth the read, if you can ever find it for a buck in a used-book sale..
