"Drink some beer, eat some BBQ and listen to what the fuck I have to say!"Alright, so baseball season is over. The Frogs didn't make it to the College World Series, as we'd hoped, but they gave it a good run and will get to Omaha sooner than later. What that now means, though, is that we're left with a 94-day TCU sports vacuum until the football team goes up to Virginia to show them preppy East-coasters with their popped-collar pastels what real football is all about.
That's a long, hot summer with not much else to quench your sports thirst other than the Rangers' inevitable collapse and some golf majors that Nike is subliminally forcing you to be interested in. Thank goodness the Dallas Alumni Association has stepped up to put on the perfect event to adequately sate your parched purple tongues. The annual Dallas Coaches' Dinner is scheduled for Thursday evening, July the 9th.
Twenty-five bones, or clams, or whatever you call them will buy you all the BBQ you can eat, all the beer you can drink, and a seat to listen to Gary Patterson, Jim Schlossnagle, Jim Christian, Danny Morrison and other TCU coaches talk about the upcoming school year and their respective teams. There's also a live and a silent auction with some pretty cool stuff that old rich people will totally out-bid you on. It's a pretty good hike up the Tollway into Plano, so getting there isn't easy, but it's more than worth the traffic hassle. I've been every year that I've lived in Dallas and honestly, I wouldn't miss it. It's been sold out the past few years, so I'd register ASAP if I were you...
