Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: Defense FAIL: Purdue 76, Michigan State 64

OT: Ann Richards dies at 73

I didn't even realize she was sick.

She was the first govenor I remember.  If only she'd been able to beat W. in 1994, we probably wouldn't have GWB in the White House today.  That'd be nice...

Very sad
She was a very impressive woman. I met her once, and she had that amazing charisma and star quality that you hear about the great politicians like Reagan, JFK, and Clinton. I think God broke the mold after he created her.
You might think I'm crazy. I agree with you.

hmm
If I were you I'd watch out for the infamous UT Alumni Association Death Squad (TM).  They may want to pay you a visit for embarassing the University.
Nobody cares about your fantasy or video game teams.

Ann was a character.
She made the political world a heck of a lot more entertaining--whether you liked her or hated her.  RIP.

  Her daughter is pretty damn cool, too.
