Breitbart ^ | 2024 12 23 | Dylan Gwinn

Here’s the video clip.

I dunno. Animals have a sense of humor and can be jerks, so I don’t put anything past Bevo.

“They’re still butt-hurt over Bevo attacking their stupid little bulldog when he got to close.”

Texas is still butt-hurt over their two losses this year!

I have part of Bevo in the oven.

Ohmigoodness! Have always felt that people don’t have enough respect for the ocean, but beginning to think that many don’t grasp the capabilities of our fellow creatures, either.

People throw around “legendary” and “iconic” too often without knowing what they mean.

The people who thought it would be a great idea to put a dumb, slobbering, ugly, poor excuse of a dog next to a huge steer are the effing idiots that caused that. Morons don’t understand how cattle would react in the situation.

SEC is butt hurt that Texas did as well as it has in the first year.

All of the Longhorns I’ve met were just Big Ol’ Laphorns. Let them up into Your lap and just start rubbing their ears, they’ll stay for hours.🤠🤪
