The Landry Jones era ends with a whimper from OU, but the Johnny Manziel era is just beginning at Texas A&M. Aggies fans have a right to be flying high...but this?

As genteel as the South may be, when it comes to football it's best not to poke the hornets' nest. Especially when you poke it so...awkwardly.

Not bad language, just words.

A master of making a point in as few words as possible, my Dad, John Keith, died last week, aged 78.
