    Spencer Tillman was the Annise Parker and Neapolitan ice cream strawberry of Oilers football. Don't even think about starting it till you're done with Brown and White.

    Bucky was in some kind of weird graduate assistant program.

    Ryan was such a piece of sh/t. Documentably abusive to Gilbride even before the punch, but Adams probably promised him the head coaching job once he could fire Pardee, and it never happened.

    I had to do a little research while watching that film. The reason? I know Floyd Reese, but not the one in the interview. The one I know was married to one of Bum's daughters and raised their child with his second wife. The two Floyd Reese's actually look similar, but not quite the same.

    I had a lot of personal connections through childhood friends of Bum and my parents graduating from the same school that Earl Campbell came from. I even watched a couple of his High school games including the State Championship game in the Astrodome.

    Bud Adams did not own MY MEMORIES of the "Luv Ya Blue" Oilers and never will.

    that story reminded me of my big bank savings account. I get it but there's no interest. Do you have any Glenn and Greg Montgomery stories?

    I messed up anyway. The Floyd I know spells his last name Reeves, not Reece.
