As reported, hard to choose sides on this one. I suppose UT Austin could raze the stadium and build their graduate studies complex there. Bet that would stick in the craw of the Alumni. Hook em, horns!

But who is Oliveira really trying to protect? Texans or his cousin?

The prohibition was tacked onto Senate Bill 62 as an amendment by Rep. René Oliveira, D-Brownsville, who said his cousin is a co-owner of the restaurant, Player's .

Wow... is this not an example of one of the most blatant abuses of power? And she has no problems with telling anyone!!!

Oh, and ummm... GO MEAN GREEN! #1 running game in the country!

It's the attitude at UT that really jerks my chain here.

It's like: "Well, if they don't wanna sell we'll just get the government to take it from them."

The arrogance astounds me. Do they teach this attitude to their students???
