He's a Man! And Eligible for Social Security!

from the notes of the Insight Bowl...

While players and coaches were milling around on the field following the game but before the trophy presentation, Ray Gundy, the father of Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy, was walking around with one of Coach Gundy’s young sons on his hip. He came over to a group of media members and unleashed a profanity-laced tirade at one male columnist that concluded with, “Print that in your f****** paper!”

The cool thing is he's passing this onto future generations with the grandkids.

Note to Stoops: Keep Cale away from the microphone.

Watch Party Cancelled

T Boones Pickens cancelled his watch party today. Apparently many people RSVP'd that he tracked back to Bartlesville, OK. Fearing retribution for his corporate raid 20 years ago, and that a bunch of Okies might stain his carpet, Pickens has cancelled the event.


In an olive branch extended to OSU fans throughout Payne County, Pickens announced today he was acquiring Time Warner. Terms were not announced.

Insight Bowl Game Watch Party

Pistols Firing got the text message to the right earlier this week. TBP has a big place, so y'all come.

We are Bowl Bound!

The Boone State Cowboys are set to go to the Insight Bowl in Tempe, AZ, which will be played on New Years Eve. The Insight Bowl will be televised on the NFL network. Here's where the challenge is...because of disputes on where to carry the network with cable companies, only 1/3 of American households have access to the NFL Network. Factor in the "broad" fan base the Cowboys have, and we don't even know if anyone will get to watch the game. Pistols Firing will run an exclusive three part series on this quandary. Here is our first part...

The Landthieves Marketing Association of Oklahoma (LMAO) set out in a quest to find an Boone State Cowboy fan that had the NFL network via cable provider or dish. Fortunately, we were able to find such a fan, his assumed name is Dexter Parker, a marijuana farmer just outside of Perkins, Oklahoma. Parker is a quiet man, who likes to grow weed and watch football. "The casino nearby has brought so much petty crime into the area that the cops don't even pay attention to my marijuana farm anymore. It's a pretty sweet deal," says Parker. "I use some of the extra cash to pay for my Dish Network subscription so I can get all the NFL games and follow all the Cowboy greats in the NFL, like R.W. McQuarters. The fact that the Insight Bowl game is on the NFL network won't bother me at all."

We weren't able to find anyone else. Tune in tomorrow when we hope to get Boone Pickens involved.
