Besides, changing the slogan in midstream could be a bit dicier to market. How's this: "We're not very good, but we're better than they are."

That may not play all that well, especially at a time when Texas has its local cable carrier on speed dial and no one's answering.

To recap for those who haven't kept up with this heated competition that's just slightly less contentious than Deion Sanders' divorce, Texas has dominated the Lone Star Showdown — the highly publicized, inter-school, all-sports series between the Longhorns and their once-upon-a-time arch-rival Aggies.
