re: College football in the state of Texas turned on its head

I work with a lot of guys from Texas. We were having a cookout one night and they would not let me watch a wildcard NFL playoff game because the National Finals Rodeo in Vegas was on TV....I was pissed

I have never watched a televised rodeo competition, nor do I know anyone who does.

I am guessing you work in a blue collar (probably oilfield) trade with a group of guys who come from very rural communities and who do not have college degrees.
