After watching the Cowboys and A&M, I forgot that football can also bring joy, instead of just misery. Thank you to OU for reminding me.

I'm glad we could cheer you up. Sorry about your loss though. Hope things get better for you.

A fan of both of those teams should be numb by now. Ask me how I know.

Usually at least one of them shows promise during a large part of the season only to fall apart by the end.

Cowboys in 2021, 2022, and 2023. A&M in 2024 and 2025.

But this year they are both just absolutely terrible with no hope.

But yeah, I’m 40. They were both so awesome when I was a young child in the early 90s. A&M won like all their home games (which we often attended), had an undefeated season, and won three conference titles (and later a Big XII title a few years later). And the Cowboys won 3 Super Bowls. But both have been basically irrelevant since the time I started high school like 25 years ago.

It's both. This game is going to give us hope, and it's the hope that kills you.
