• Gundy to Notre Dame rumors have yet to stick

  Even the college punks are wearing out Gundy. This guy Ryan Stewart set his bong atop his Dane Cook comedy albums long enough to bang out this column about Gundy in O’Colly. I hadn’t read this quote from Gundy until this column: “They had 11 games on tape and there wasn’t a [...]

• I knew it. Zac was hurt in Bedlam.

  So Zac Robinson was hurt on the first DRIVE during the Bedlam game. So that’s what all that limping was. Geez. I noticed it from the 52nd row. Why not give Weeden a CHANCE to get something going. I love Zac Robinson but a 100% Brandon Weeden gives you a [...]

• Cowboy offense like watching a fallen bird die

  I actually got to go to the Bedlam game Saturday. And watching the Cowboy offense sputter and flouder and drool out the side of its mouth felt like seeing someone you really liked and respected withering in a nursing home. The whole game was so hopeless. Not one third down conversion. [...]

• Gundy Brothers Hair Design Mini-Mall won’t open until brothers talk more

  During Mike Gundy’s press conference Monday, brother Cale called the Better Gundy’s cell phone (405-HAIR-GEL or 405-424-7435) – presumably – to wish him well on Saturday. Then Mike said that’s the first time he’s called in six months. That would definitely be weird competing against your brother; not only in one [...]

• I love Tostitos. Hear that Fiesta Bowl committee in your mustard yellow blazers?

  I just filled my mother’s basement (my room) with bags of Tostitos. Hopefully the word of increased sales in the Oklahoma zip codes will lead the Fiesta Bowl committee to choose OSU for their bowl. Someone please wake John Klein and tell him that, if the Cowboys win Saturday, they are [...]

  Hence the lack of jocular posts. Hoping to began riffing on Gundy’s hair and the Pokes Fiesta Bowl hopes soon. I heart Brandon Weeden. [...]

• Zac is a definite maybe for Thursday night, Vegas still loves Pokes

  Word around the campfire is Alex Cate has taken most of the first-team snaps in practice this week. Since practice is closed, no one (except Gundy) really knows for sure if Zac Robinson will play Thursday. In situations like this, I don’t mind the whole media freeze out. On a short [...]

• Mangino out at Kansas? Fat joke makers sweat.

  Will firing Kansas head coach Mark Mangino make the Jayhawks MORE or LESS likely to upset Texas on Saturday? A Kansas win is like what Princess Leia said about Obi Wan Kenobi: our only hope. Should the Jayhawks lose, I hope Todd Reesing throws an incomplete pass like the one above [...]

• Congrats to Zack Greinke, unironically

  Hugs and handpounds to Zack Greinke for winning the AL Cy Young Award today. This guy was two steps from the nuthouse in 2006. But he recovered and is living up to his potential. If you can win the Cy Young in Kansas City and your last name doesn’t rhyme [...]

• You’re a good man, Patrick Lavine

  Thank you Patrick Lavine for the Pick Six. Thank you Kendall Hunter for taking a few Advil and playing like the Kendall of old. Thank you Bill Young for being old. You probably wouldn’t have gotten the defensive coordinator position otherwise because Gundy wanted to hire someone long in the tooth that [...]

• New hair strategy for Texas Tech

  Word around the campfire is Gundy is trying a different hair gel for this Saturday’s game with Texas Tech. Instead of wearing black jerseys or going throwback (like OU this weekend), the man thought he’d mix up his product. Don’t worry. The amount of gel, like the Cowboys effort, will [...]

• Bowman and Bombers eye CFL Playoffs

  Gundy’s Lettuce’s favorite recent OSU grad is hoping to guide the Winnipeg Bombers to the CFL playoffs. And dropping nonsensical quotes to emote his desire to play. Said Adarius Bowman, who is coming off a knee injury, about his status for this weekend’s game against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats “There’s no way I [...]

• Memorable Texas Tech/OSU game – Bonzai style

  Back in the days when Oklahoma State played in the Big 8, they’d play all those Texas dirt bags in non-conference games. So it was an event when the Cowboys would play a Texas A&M or Baylor. In 1988, the best year of Gundy’s life, Oklahoma State played Texas Tech … [...]

  Let’s be friends so we can feel less alone in the world. I don’t know how to find Gundy’s Lettuce on Facebook. So search for Gundy’s Lettuce in the little search deal? Whatevs. No, that’s not me in the picture. I haven’t seen the sun since OSU lost to Texas on [...]

• Go Baylor! Repeal Big 12 stereotypes

  The only chance for OSU to win the Big 12 South is for Baylor to beat Texas at home this weekend. We know the steers won’t lose to Kansas in Austin. And, without a loss to Baylor, Texas will be outright champs before its game against Texas A&M on Nov. [...]

  Attention: Producers of “Dancing With The Stars” You have a budding performer in Stillwater. Apparantly, according to OSU cornerback Perrish Cox, Mike Gundy dances in the team circle. From Bill Haisten’s blog: “He hides it from the media and fans, but OSU coach Mike Gundy occassionally dances in the team circle. Cox says [...]

• Cowboys giving birth to fine defense

  How ’bout Defense U? That’s what they should call the Cowboys defense. Or how about Young Boys after D-coordinator Bill Young. I can hear the chants in the crowd at Boone Pickens Stadium now. “WE LOVE THE YOUNG BOYS!” “WE LOVE THE YOUNG BOYS!” Suddenly, more Catholic priests began showing up at OSU [...]

• Countdown to Iowa State. Can you feel the apathy?

  Has there been a less exciting week for OSU football in expectation of a trip to Ames? The collective yawn has filtered into my mother’s basement and touched me inappropriately. OSU 34 Iowa State 13 Here’s hoping for a similar performance to what we saw in College Station and Waco. Here’s hoping Anyiam [...]

• Fan asks Gundy, “How do you get your hair to do that?”

  How did I miss this? When Gundy made his tour of ESPN last summer, he sat down and did a web chat with fans. During the chat, about halfway through, an inquisitive chatter drops this bomb. Justin (Leedy) How do you get you hair to do that? Mike Gundy (4:24 PM) My hair stands up [...]

  Where is John in Tulsa? I was mocking the man in August. Now he looks brilliant. I want to know if my bet with Oregon, giving only seven points this week at Stanford, is too good to be true. Only seven points! After what the Ducks did to USC? Tell [...]

• People on the Internets love Natalie Sentz

  Number of comments: 2
  So about 50% of the traffic I get on this site revolves around two obscure mid-summer posts mentioning former KJRH reporter Natalie Sentz. I posted a You Tube clip of Natalie at her new job in Detroit, standing in front of a flaming, riot scene, saying she was “super glad” [...]

  Kendall Hunter is to toughness as Dexter Manley is to literacy. There, I said it. And does anyone sound like a bigger, self-serving phony right now than Dez Bryant? He did that ESPN interview – the one where he said he was going to class and going to practice and taking care [...]
