World's largest McDonald's is in Vinita, and I-44 goes right under it.

I'm referring to the Switzer era, when we owned them, and they were whiny crybabies. Sebastian the Ibis used to ride a moped with a kid's red wagon behind it to mock the Sooner Schooner. Oh, those were the days!

Of course, in a few weeks I will be in Norman to see us lay waste to them again. They also ran my cousin out of town after only one season as head coach because the players couldn't handle two-a-days in the summer, so I can't stand them. Nothing personal...I just can't stand Oklahoma.

Boise State was the only true National Champion last year. Florida sucks!
