Is it really this close to the holiday season? Time is flying by. I have been swamped at work, still trying to catch up from my trip last week. New projects and new deadlines.

Went to the OU Baylor game last Saturday. We had a good time, and it was a great game. It is just a shame that we would have a close game against Baylor. I am just glad we got out with a win.

We took Maddie to the Pumpkin Patch Saturday, and she loved the petting zoo. She also enjoyed running through the hay maze.

OU Nebraska this weekend, along with all the Halloween hoopla. I really need to get some pics up soon. We will see.

Back in town

Friday, October 21, 2005
I had a great time in Kansas City. I am impressed with the city. It has a nice little feel to it. Arrowhead stadium was nice... the game was good... after the first half. The conference was very informative and gave me some great Ideas for work. We ate at some very good restaurants in Country Club Plaza. If you are ever there you have to try BAHA 600 (Mexican), BRIO (Italian), and Houston's (steakhouse).

So now I am back to work and trying to dig through the pile that is my desk. We have some sort of Halloween hay ride thing with the church group tonight and tomorrow my buddy Fish and I are off to see the Sooners beat up on Baylor.

Update

Wednesday, October 12, 2005
Busy this week trying to get things done before I hit the road for a week. I am going to Kansas City for the big APICS Conference on Friday morning. I will be back in OKC next Wednesday night. It just so happens that the Sooners are playing in KC on Saturday... bonus. I already have my ticket. Boomer Sooner.

It should be fun, but mostly work and discovering new tools (toys) of the trade. I will be in the hotel at night so maybe there will be some good blogging with no wife and no Maddie around. I hate going out of town when she is this age(2). It seems like she grows so fast when I'm gone. Oh well, its only six days.

Red River Shootout: The eve

Friday, October 07, 2005

OU 24
TX 21

I love being the underdog. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain. However, Texas has everything to lose and everything to gain. So that said this should be a true shootout. I think that the Sooner Defense will hold the run focused Texas offense in check. The big question is how does Rhett Bomar react to the atmosphere in Big D. If Rhett can settle down quick enough and play like he knows he can we should be able to put some good drives together.

Look for some sweet play calling by both teams. I expect to see the reverse again, as well as the double screen pass… Bomar to Thompson to Wilson.

Red River Shootout: Wednesday

Wednesday, October 05, 2005
Bye Bye Dallas?

Will this be the last year in the Cotton Bowl? I hear the AD from Texas talking on the Sports Animal and he sounded like he was ready to move the game to a home and home series. IMO there is something great about the game in Dallas, to lose it would be a big loss. We are talking about 100 years of this game. Come on Dallas step up and fix that Cotton Bowl up.

Red River Shootout: Tuesday

Tuesday, October 04, 2005
Hopefully Optimistic!

Let us not forget that until Mack and the shorthorns beat us we still have the bragging rights. I will grant you that this is the best chance that Brown has and will have in a while, but there is something to say for the way that Stoops has Mack by the balls. You never know what is going to happen in the Cotton Bowl, so buckle up and get ready for a ride. If for some reason we do leave Dallas with less than a victory… then and only then will I give it up to Texas. Post your score predictions in the comments section.

Red River Shootout week...

I want to apologize if this site looks like a mirror of the Sooner Football site this week, but during OU v. Texas week there is really nothing else. Hopefully I will find some other topics to throw in throughout the week.

It will be okay...

No the sky is not falling Sooner fans!

If you watched the same game I did on Saturday evening, then you will have witnessed the light at the end of the tunnel as well. After a rocky start to the season, the Sooners are starting to mesh together and become a team right before our eyes. Rhett Bomar continued to be successful, and most importantly he protected the ball. Unfortunately Saturday Night's game did bring another injury to Adrian Peterson. Coach Stoops says he thinks AD will be fine and should play on Saturday in the Red River Shootout. Look for more rants on the RRS later in the week.
