6 milion to lose bowl games every year? That is pretty sad. One more flop in a big bowl and we can officially call him "big lame Bob".

Stoops is the best coach in the Big 12. As for bowl games, you can't when them all. You'd like to, though. When people bring up salary, it just means they're jealous. However, the Picker wouldn't have anything to write about if sports weren't as big as it is. How about we change our outlook and find some positive things to write about. I'll just tune in to the news for some negativity.

Llama: Why would he leave? Six mil and he doesn't even have to win a bowl game.

Carrying it out a little more, Stoopsie is only making $12 per minute.

Twenty cents per second, $12 a minute, $700 per hour, $6 mil for the year, who says that's too much to pay somebody who can beat everybody in the Big 12 except Colorado and Texas Tech.

Don't get me wrong, Thomas, I'm on the bandwagon, I'm in the fourth Rolls from the rear on the Stoops parade.

OU could offer 10 million a year and hire the best football coach available on the planet but that would still not guarantee a national championship team or a BCS bowl victory every year. There are too many intangibles to guarantee that sort of success.

I wonder what they think of Tressel in Ohio? He lost two big ones in a row.

I think head football coaches are paid more than the smartest and most respected professors in every single university in the country, not just in Norman USA. Is it fair to the teachers? Not at all. Has a professor ever quit because of this unbalanced financial compensation? I doubt it.

In my opinion, college coaches, pro athletes, actors, rock stars, plastic surgeons, lawyers and school superintendents are all paid more than they are worth.

Actually, Stoops makes more than 60 "meaningless" science or literature professors. Stoops is great coach but for the people of this great State not to see a problem with this makes me sad. Student athletes come to play for OU, not for Bob. Graduate students come to OU to specifically work with some of those "meaningless" professors. OU football for all its glory will not make this state or nation better, OU graduates will.

Having read many of the "pickers" columns, he could well use some additional time under those "meaningless" literature professors. I'm not an OU professor but I wish I were one even more that I would like to be an OU coach. GO student!

I love Bob. He's my hero. They can't pay him enough. I have a serious man crush on him. Please don't talk bad about him. He's a GOD!!

Zach: was that you I saw on your Vespa going through the drive-thru at McDonalds, or is the circus back in town?

Epphan: Going 6-6 and winning the Toilet Bowl is worth a lot more than what they are paying Gumby over at Stoolwater, for sure. Make a bigger contribution to Boone State
University, please.

World Picker: I know you are jealous of anyone who makes more money than you do, hence you are jealous of about everyone except your minions; but your hate is beginning to take on the odor of an obsession.

Why don't you try to write something sometime besides third grade math. Your drivel seems to be attracting mostly the weak and infirm and I am getting a bit bored with them.

Oh, and I wager you have never seen the inside of a Rolls, much less driven one.
I have. They are nice. (Much nicer than a Vespa, Zach.)


World Picker should be required to identify himself and own up to his hate and childish drivel, or be fired.
