• Tex-cess. Welcome to The Austin Morning News.

  All this? Because of one game a year in our zip code? Seems a tad much. Okay, we get it. Dallas’ Only Daily is hitching its downsized wagon to the Texas Longhorns. Again. I often accuse Dallas of being not a sports town, but a winners town. I have to say the same about our media. Myself included. When in doubt, I admit, I'll usually find a topic more riveting than the Texas Rangers because, well, they suck. But what the Morning News does when it comes to UT is almost criminal

• Don't Mess With Texas. Oh Crap, Too Late.

     I don't love Texas. I don't hate Oklahoma. But what transpired yesterday in the Big 12 is absolute bullshit.   I know life ain't fair, but college football should be. Or at least it should use common sense trying.   Let me apologize to Texas. I posted some of the best assets of Texas Tech and Oklahoma, but am just now getting around to the Longhorn lovelies. Obviously, I'm the reason UT is getting royally screwed, right?   Okay then, you tell me. How is

• Texas Fight: After "Freakiness" in Dallas, Recruit Chose OU Over UT

  Lufkin High School's Jamarkus McFarland, a highly coveted defensive tackle, committed to the University of Oklahoma yesterday; Merry Christmas, Sooner Nation. And it's a double kick to the Longhorns' pants: The University of Texas had hoped to land the 6-foot-3, 280-pounder, but instead a post-Texas-OU party in Dallas helped McFarland decide to move to Norman instead of Austin. He even wrote a paper for his English class about the shindig, which The New York Times excerpts in its behind-the-scen

• The Top 10 Best Current Rivalries in Sports

  Tonight's the next chapter in one of sports' best rivalries. That's right, I said best.To be a true sports rivalry - more than just a plethora of games between teams in close proximity (see Chicago Cubs vs. St. Louis Cardinals) - the meetings between opponents must: *Take place at an advanced level, with championships on the line. *Feature sustained excellence by both teams over a period of time. *Include some form of contentiousness, be it physical alternations or trash-talking

  Fingers crossed, WE will duplicate this joy tonight. Right?So I'm watching the Channel 8 news Monday night at 6:29 and after a sparkling fill-in sportscast by Ted Madden he alerts viewers that: " ... in the game, Texas already trails, 1-0." To which anchor Gloria Campos valiantly responds, "Aw, but they'll come back." Adds John McCaa, "Let's hope so." At this point I should remind you that they were talking not about your Texas Rangers, but rather the Texas Longhorns in the College World

• If They Can't Get People to Come to Victory Park, Well, There's Always Cattle

  Photos by Kimberly ThorpeWhatever you do, do not look at the video board behind you.​On my commute to work this morning, I noticed something peculiar about Victory Park Plaza. Standing over the dull pavers, corralled Longhorns grazed on a bit of straw, while two men on horseback watched over. Turns out, it was a promotional stunt for the Texas Stampede rodeo scheduled for the AAC November 13 and 14. The money raised will go to Children's Medical Center. "We brought nine Longhorns this year
