From Staff Reports
NORMAN -- An explosion near the University of Oklahoma's Gaylord Family-Memorial Stadium killed one person Saturday, OU officials said.

The explosion happened at the courtyard near the George Lynn Cross Hall, Botany-Microbiology Building on OU's campus, which is west of the stadium, according to Sgt. Gary Robinson of the University police department.

The explosion happened during the second quarter of Oklahoma's game against Kansas State.

After the explosion, police set up a perimeter of several blocks and made fans exit the stadium to the east.

I was responding to a comment, and should have posted it:

"Just got off the phone with a frind who works at a TV station in the Tulsa market... says it was a suicide. Not terrorism... just a jackass who may have wanted attention."

Possibly a suicide only? Suicide. Yes. Only? Doubtful. Not with 2 devices...found.

The fact that we are hearing nothing anywhere until now speaks volumes.

I don't think it would be that hard to terrorize this soft country. Therefore I agree it's just a matter of time. Look at how Boyd & Malvo had Washington stepping and fetchin'.

Campus police Sgt. Gary Robinson said authorities believe the blast was caused by an explosive device.

"Lets all stand up NOW!"

What... someone blows up their lab experiment, or has their bottle of Everclear go BOOM! and you're looking to blame some Islamic immigrant threat?

I'm thinking that the 9-11 terrorists have truly won....

Perzactly...from the hyperbole we usually hear to this...that says a lot.

I don't think they are ever going to tell us it is terrorism. They don't want the people to rise up.

By "developing" I don't mean recent, but only that the coalition is spreading and getting bigger.

One source of the current terrorism is Saudi Wahhabism. Another is Arab nationalism, which developed in Egypt during and after WW II as a toxic mix of Communism, Naziism, and Islam.

But it has been spreading much more widely, and antisemitism has been growing along with it in all sorts of intellectual circles where you didn't see it (openly, at least) 10 years ago. It used to be Said and Chomsky and a few others; now it's virtually all the college leftists.

Ramadan starts the 4th or 5th of October.

This might well be a rogue happening rather than part of a greater strategy.

There's lots of stuff the dumba$$e$ could do really cheap, very dramatic, and extremely disruptive. I hope they stay stupid and keep trying for the "knockout".

I guess anything is possible, but it just doesn't "smell" like terrorism. I'm going with the suicidal student who wanted attention theory.

The Commander In Chief fantasy made me roar tonight. They mentioned scandals....Watergate, Iran Contra, WMD. Gee, I'm glad this isn't and anti-Republican/Bush series.

By the way...Did a little research on Sutherland. Seems he was in something ??? and Peter Grunwald was the producer or director or whatever.

Lo and behold, Peter is the brother of Mandy Grunwald...Hillary's media advisor and the Hillary's best friend. Mandy also ran Bubba's campaign. The other tidbit is that Mandy is married to Matt Cooper who started the Rove bit.

The last tidbit...Noticed that this female pretend Prez said she only served 4 years in Congress. What a damn coincidence!! I've always said that Hillary would not run for the Senate again.
