Black Jesus

a few words about the retiring of VINCE YOUNG's number this weekend:

i hope someday all of you can know the sort of joy that i have felt ever since 1/4/2005. the air is a little sweeter, food tastes better, i walk a little taller and, honestly, my life seems a bit less pathetic. you may think it's sad that an event that i had nothing to do with and a relationship i never had with a PERSON i've never met completely validates my life, but that's because you are not a LONGHORN fan. really, unless you are an oklahoma fan (i don't think we have one of those contributing and i hope we never find one), you won't have a frame of reference for this feeling. and even then i don't think sooners look back at josh heupel with the same sort of adoration that i feel when i think back on #10. i could explain it to you, but it wouldn't be the same.

HE's like superman and john mcclane all roled into one with batman's gadgets, jimmy chitwood's fire, roy hobbs' clutch, otis redding's cool and jebus' love.

my love for him knows no limits.
