U.T.'s QB Colt McCoy is "Pistoles," according to radio announcer...

[SteveM]

For years, the University of Texas' football games have been broadcast in the Spanish. In an interview with the Spanish language broadcast team, an announcer explained the differences in language. "We call the Longhorns 'Los Longhorns'... but Colt McCoy is 'Pistoles,' like the gun, throwing shots right and left." Apt description, in my book.

Mods: just a little new-year levity.
