And UNT put off the program for so long that we have no shot at either of these now.

Remember the banners that used to appear at Washington Redskins games after the Baseball Senators left and before the Nationals moved in from Montreal , "BASEBALL IN DC" ?  Maybe we need to see such a banner hanging ( or flying ?) at Apogee.

I saw this yesterday and thought to myself that baseball at UNT is no longer even a remote, minuscule pipe dream of mine. 

Meh, public accounting has pretty much rendered me incapable of following the first 2/3rds of the regular college baseball season anyway.

An airplane banner flying at our home games.  I like that greenjoe.  Where's UNT90 when you need him?  Guess he's following TCU baseball up in Nebraska.  Sigh.

If he thought there was a great class divide under the last AD here, he's in for a HUGE rude awakening at TCU.

Proud of Skip.  This is well deserved for a great person.  I played ball with Skip and Tim Tadlock from Little League through high school.  You won't find two better people.  Happy to see them succeeding.

I'm in for the baseball banner.  Let me know who to make the check out to and where to mail it ( 2 old fashioned notions, I know).
