Talk about "slow to catch on" ... Before I went away to college, I regretfully spent way too many years of my life oblivious to the pure ecstasy of College Football. This doesn't make a lot of sense if you know my family history. Grandpa (Donald Robesky... go ahead, google him) played college football in the 1920's at Stanford University under Pop Warner and is still listed in the Stanford Football Hall of Fame. This was prior to the NFL and so winning a Rose Bowl back then was a very big deal (still is)! I was therefore raised with college football in my blood, and now my blood runs purple (with a strong streak of cardinal red in it... shhh... not to be confused with the Trojans). Needless to say, I believe I have sufficiently "caught on" and am so excited to celebrate the Rose Bowl this year as my alma mater is embraced, undefeated, for a second year in a row into a BCS bowl. I was a little nervous that we (Texas Christian University- TCU) were going to have to play Stanford and then I would be forced to decide a true loyalty. I have no idea how I would choose. So, in honor of my beloved Horned Frogs I would like to lead us all in a boisterous cheer as we anticipate the big day we play University of Wisconsin- Madison. Please join me ...
"RIFF RAM BAH ZOO, LICKETY, LICKETY, ZOO, ZOO, OOO WAH, WAH OOO, GIVE 'EM HELL TCU!"
