Bobblehead Family Sports:
I have not written about my daughter Maddie in a bit and I would like to announce to all of my readers that Maddie is a new RN at the Saint Francis NICU in March!!!! She celebrated by having Ricardos Mexican Cantina, then playing
18 holes of golf at the Broken Arrow Golf and Athletic Club, and finally her first back-to-back-to-back shift at Saint Francis NICU!!! Very exciting first day but she cannot do Ricardos Burritolata the day before Golf and first shift!! So proud of her and her Hubby who has some news that I will share in next week's blog!!

Football Recruiting ROI (Return on investment) dollars-
Money spent on Recruiting in 2022:
*Oklahoma spent 2.6 million buckaroos recruiting and a 6-7 record is not reflective of 4th highest money spent to get 4, and 5 ⭐️s WHICH is also not considered a good ROI, another 6-7 season will have the heat revved up for OU’s coach BV!
*Oklahoma State spent 400k ish dollars on football recruiting in 2022!! Rutgers was No. 11 nationally and No. 2 in the Big Ten in recruiting expenses!! Only five SEC schools spent more than the Scarlet Knights, who haven’t had a winning season since 2014!! Very sucky ROI (return on investment) for Rutgers has almost doubled its recruiting budget to $1.61 million since Greg Schiano returned for his second stint as coach!! Can u say bye bye Rutgers AD and coach! Conversely, Oklahoma State, Iowa and Wisconsin have routinely played into the Top 25 polls during the season despite being among the thriftiest spenders in recruiting the last ten years!!
Lowest power 5 recruiting expenditures per our TMZ sources! Mike Gundy should be AD! Or Govenor of Oklahoma, or maybe the new Director of the NCAA alignment to oversee NIL Expenditures!! Per my TMZ correspondent, coach Gundy is considering running for Prez in 2028!!
*Tulsa spent an undisclosed amount 2022- Costs are said to be close to 100k per year plus a 25k yearly grant from Uber for recruiting trips!! Great idea!!
ππTulsa Uber Girl Football Recruit Ride!ππ
*Arkansas spent 1.2 million on recruiting in 2022, a moderately low amount in SEC standards! Of course the big perk here arrives with air transportation from Tyson Chicken’s Jet, Rob Walton CEO Walmart’s Jet and Bill and Hillary Clinton’s Piper Cessna!!
Tyson Chicken’s Learjet G12
BOOM!!
More than one in five TU students is a National Merit Scholar or National Achievement Scholar- believed to osbe the highest percentage of ANY university in the US!! The current Lambda Chi Alpha has a 3.6 GPA, and 50% of our Pledges, sorry Associate Members, are National Merrit Scholars!! In the late 70s, the % of Merrit Scholars took a huge hit on the Lambchops percent!! A pandemic of deviants joined TU frats at this stage and Tulsa was one of the top drinking/party schools in America!! Grades suffered but fun was amazing in the late 70s early 80s at Tulsa University from my recollection!
B in T Top Ewwwwy Gewwwwy
Feeling Traditions on football Saturday!!
1.
Dotting the i at Ohio State, I get goosebumps and I don't even know where Columbus is!! Haha
2.
Arkansas Calling the Hogs, nothing like 70k folks yelling Pig Sooooey in hog snouts!!

Clemsons Howard Rock:
When the Clemson team gathers to run down The Hill, the players rub Howard’s Rock because of the mystical powers it is supposed to give Clemson players. The rock is mounted on a pedestal at the top of The Hill and was given to Coach Frank Howard by a friend (S.C. Jones ’19) who picked it up in Death Valley, Calif. The Rock was first placed on the pedestal at the top of The Hill on Sept. 24, 1966, a game Clemson won 40-35 over Virginia. The team started rubbing the Rock for the first game of 1967, a 23-6 win over Wake Forest on Sept. 23, 1967!
The Tradition Continues!
4.
Oklahoma’s Boomer Sooner Schooner- so cool to watch the mini horses and wagon run on the field after each Sooner touchdown!! Although the opponents secretly wish for the Schooner to tip over gently one more time!!
5.
Va Tech Enter Sandman -
Metallica’s and B in T’s greatest rock song ever!! My son, Lance and I would play this song before football practices in our ‘99 Suburban!
65k Hokie fans jumping up and down to Sandman, spitting out fire π₯ is a great sight to behold!!
6.
Kinnick Wave, Iowa
When the Kinnick clock hits zero, at the end of the first quarter, 70,000 Hawkeye football fans turn their attention from the field to the Stead Family Children's Hospital!! In unison, they wave to the pediatric patients and their families watching the game!! More goosebumps!!
Should have been 1st!
7.
Texas A&M 12th Man
Where did the 12th Man come from?? I have been to numerous games but I have never inquired about it's origin!! My super duper, beloved Aggie fan relatives have never explained this great story!! Shame on them!! Well, in 1922, the heavily outgunned Aggies were facing the top-ranked Centre College Praying Colonels on the gridiron in the Dixie Classic in Dallas!! An Aggie by the name of E. King Gill, a squad player for Texas A&M’s football team, was up in the press box helping reporters identify players on the field below and what was happening on the field wasn’t pretty!! The Aggies found themselves plagued by injuries, with their reserves seemingly dwindling with every play!! As Texas A&M Coach Dana X. Bible(tuff name to live up to) looked across his rapidly emptying bench, he suddenly remembered Gill’s presence in the stands!! BIBLE found a Savior!! Bible waved Gill down to the sideline and told him to suit up!! Gill ran under the bleachers and put on the uniform of injured running back Heine Weir, who had been knocked out of the game in the first quarter!! This shat really happened, I was there!! Hehe!
Gill returned to the sideline, where he stood ready to play for the entirety of the game!! When the last play was run, the Aggies found that they had pulled off one of the greatest upsets in college football history, winning the game 22-14!! Gill never played but was allowed to keep the jersey! But a TRADITION was created!
8.
Oklahoma State’s Eskimo Joe’s Cheese Fries- OMG! This tradition has been high-octane food for Stillwater for 100 years!!
9.
Florida State Seminoles-
Arguably the greatest spectacle in college football unfolds moments before kickoff at Doak Campbell Stadium when Osceola charges down the field aboard Renegade, a beautiful Appaloosa, and plants a flaming spear at midfield prior to each home game. This tradition is a tribute to the great Seminole Tribe of Florida.

OU/Texas Tradition
Fake Cop on way to the Cotton Bowl for Sooners vs Longhorns! The Atoka, Oklahoma police department has a replica copper dummy that has caused 1,436,300 break pumps over the last 10 years according to my intense TMZ survey!!
Center Vibes:
The week before the tournament:
Each player has certain ‘oddish rituals’ before big Boccia match:
Steven - has stomach issues so before each 1st match of the Tourney he chugs a 12-ounce bottle of Mylanta (strawberry flavored) to the cheers of his teammates!! Chug, Chug, Chug!!!! Go, Steven!
Pam V. - she goes into each Boccia match with limited confidence but somehow wins!! Great tactical maneuver by the sly Pammy!
Rose- tells the entire KC Regionals USA staff and opponents that she has never played this tournament before and sneaks up and wins a medal!! Watch her and the ‘woe is me poor little Rose’ pre-game ritual!!
Lee- This odd pre-match ritual involves his Dallas Cowboy doo rag, Dallas Cowboy PJs and a prayer to the Jerry Jones Gods!! This never works and Lee, like his vaunted Cowboys never finishes in the top 10!!!
Tempest- at previous Boccia tournaments she wears giant bunny ears during her first game!! A tradition that her roommate Stephanie will wear this year!!

Cards
The Cardinal fans in the Yuppyland Section of Busch Stadium are now wearing cardinal red paper sacks over their heads, a la Saints!
Starting straight at trading, Goldschmidt, Arenado and Walker for an entire pitching staff, the Birds have a high propensity to suck a lot!
Cubs
The Roof Top crowd across Waveland Ave was recently shut down for 1 week for mooning and boobing the young crowd in Wrigley Field! Most of the young Cubbies were brought to tears when the Roof Top section was closed for one long week!
Rangers
The starting pitching staff with DeGrom added has put this an 85 to the 90-win season!
Royals
Kauffman Stadium is beautiful but the team playing in the stadium is not!! One more 65-win season will bring new management for 2024!
Astros
Yordan Alvarez of the Stros is so big and powerful he once scared a charging bull in it's tracks by simply showing his batting stance! The big bull bully fainted! True shat!!
Brewers
The Brewers are again out in front of the Red Birds in the early going, but Bud Light and Busch Light take longer than Pabst Blue Ribbon and Old Milwaukee beer to get moving!!
Have a great sports week!
