UT ball gone :(
« on: June 17, 2007, 06:58:13 AM »
I was practicing the other day and I had just thrown my UT spare ball and I was throwing at a 7 pin. There was also a pin in the left gutter and the ball took out both pins. When it came back, there was a huge chunk taken out of my UT ball and it is now unthrowable    It is now, I guess, going to be a trophy ball. I have to get a new spare ball now though

Bummer, guess you'll learn to clear dead wood out before you bowl?

well at least it was a spare ball which is cheap to replace rather than a strike ball.

Tennessee or Texas? The difference is that Tennessee is "UT" and Texas is "t.u.".

Yeah, UT is the University of Tennessee.

And Texas, is well, Texas. I have never seen them use the "TU" before. It's normally just, Tex. or Texas.

He is referring to the way that that Texas A&M refers to the University of Texas.  I have never seen the insult (or humor) in the use of "t.u."  Actually, Texas A&M is the greatest case of p*nis envy ever recorded.

Here's the explanation: "t.u." is used by Texas A&M University when talking about the other school in Austin because A&M was established first and was considered "The Univeristy of Texas".

Absolutely lol. And I use UT for University of Texas because no one pays attention to Tennessee because they are no major force

Actually Texas A&M is TAMU.

Texas is just Texas, really. But if it had to be broken down, Texas Tech is TTU, Texas A&M is TAMU, so Texas would probably be TU, just like Kansas is KU.
