Ask SMU. They have had some experience with this.

This is a big wren.

In the future, all series against P5 are one for one AND the first game is in Denton. Then if you want to cancel, we will talk about a buyout.

So we allowed Cal to push us back a year provided they helped us find a filler opponent? I’m glad they are still “scheduled” to come to Denton but I’ll reserve my enthusiasm until they leave Berkeley for the airport.

There is so much to market and Wren knows how to maximize opportunities. We are becoming a destination city, region and the fall is the best time to visit: 1. Expose your program to one of the countries richest recruiting regions. 2. Hang out in music rich Denton for the weekend - live music, brew houses and more. 3. Short drive to mega shopping in Dallas and Plano. 4. Catch some pro sports 🏈 ⚾️ ⚽️ If they happen to be in town that weekend. 5. Tour some history, The 6th Floor museum and Bush Library. 6. Tour headquarters and iconic sports venues. Help these middle/upper programs create an exciting weekend vision for their program and fans: Cal, Purdue, Missouri, Kentucky, Syracuse, BYU, Oregon, Va Tech, Minnesota, Pittsburgh. GMG

Well worth the $$$! GMG

Feeling like football is going to get pushed to the spring

It will just feel like Tuesday for 5 months. Booooooooo GMG

Nice. RV said it couldn't be done.

Maybe we can ask one of the dozens of other countries who seem to have figured it out. Let's start with New Zealand.

Aune has been in a college program since January 2018, which is longer than any other quarterback on our roster. Reading this board you might think he hasn’t touched a football since he graduated high school 8 years ago.

They say Covid 19 is a matter of Life and Death... Football is much more important than that.

I am glad you recognize and don't put stock in his words. I wish all were so strong. Because his own people, that he "employs", are still out there (with much better language) trying convincing people that this is blown up and fake. Pence in his own op-ed: https://www.wsj.com/articles/there-isnt-a-coronavirus-second-wave-11592327890 Or Trump's pressure to make sure there is no 'mask mandate' - Pence is out there swinging for the fences: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/01/trump-says-coronavirus-masks-are-good-but-doubts-national-mandate-is-needed.html It just doesn't stop. The words are actions. Showing no governance or leadership on the MOST basic of science.

I re-read my list and five of the seven listed items do not involve Trump's words. They are actions. Simple actions -- to not be a brazen ass. So, I don't agree at all that "most of this list" is about the President using his "best words" - we know he knows the best words.

For starters: Lead by example. Clearly state this is not a hoax and the dangers are real. The top leaders need to be seen wearing a mask and showing the recommended protocol. Do not have mass gatherings (rallies?) in locations that have no met the CDC recommendations for public gatherings. Enforce a mask policy at your gathers (SD, DC 4th celebrations). Offer as much assistance as required and wanted by the states with an outbreak (without saying - this means to not threaten 'liberal' states that don't align with the President's ego). Don't lie! Stop saying that everyone who wants a test can get a test. Stop lying about the capability of tests. That is just the baseline what I would expect from an administration when so many people are affected by this sickness. Instead this administration inserts doubt into the numbers or the seriousness - ignore all their own recommendations - go to twitter to show off how much they are not following the CDC policies. Trump goes on TV and still is saying this will "disappear" and signs are looking good. Passing off the theory the summer heat will take care of it (as we saw parroted at gmg - a lot). So how about some good old fashioned hat holding on the things they got wrong and show some leadership on getting this back on track? All of this certainly emboldens those that want to doubt and want to blindly follow Trump to the Earth's end.

I guess I am not old enough to get the reference.

this is amazing. there are 24 topics per page in these forums. - @El Paso Eagle started 5...ranging from Defunding the Police to the dangers of a post-gendered Bob's Big Boy - @LongJim started 3...a couple Reason articles and a discussion on how many progressives are disappointed with their closest affiliated party's nomination - @MCMLXXX started 3...a holiday salutation and two framed articles that left out major context from his initial post - @UNTLifer started 2...a 10-year old article and a gross misinterpretation of the movie Idiocracy - @THOR started 1 that was simply him trying to justify his behavior that will single-handedly cost us a football season. (it's your fault, thor) and then one each from @97and03, @ADLER, @TheColonyEagle, @Hunter Green, @meangreen11, @Venson...with the bots rounding out the numbers. so, these are your liberal overlords? seems like a plurality of "conservative" voices at first glance. so if quantity isn't the problem...maybe you're feeling "shouted down" because the quality of your argument is lacking?

While this article is primarily about the California situation, it notes that those infected people are US citizens returning for medical care. Important to note that Mexico primarily got the virus from people from the United States and not the other way around.

We will be playing UNLV in the new Raiders Stadium. May have to go out for the game if possible'

I would think if they were dead set on getting out of it, they would have paid their way out already. This is encouraging. Glad we’re still bringing them in.

I’d be beyond shocked if there’s football this fall.

Haven't shouted anyone down, have contributed more time and effort than many over the years, and there's a contingent of 4-5 guys who just follow me around down-voting every post. It's off-season life.

He's just doing this to steal votes from Biden.

I’m glad we’re starting to play some games out West. Vegas weekend Baby! GMG

I'm done with what the media talking heads say about Trump. I've tried to put together the various sources of what he is actually doing, along with (hopefully) unedited video releases of his public speeches. Here are some of these bookmarks. If anyone has any more suggestions, I'm all ears. Federal Register of Executive Orders Factba.se Presidential Calendar. Also, they do transcriptions of all his speeches. [WARNING: Trump loves to golf. I mean, I knew he loved golfing but, when I saw the numbers, I was floored.) whitehouse.gov/1600Daily Other relevant links: Supreme Court's calendar and lists Congress floor calendars ...I think most of us know these sources are out there. It's just very easy for the common man to rely on the daily news cycle and get lazy about looking them up. They are important! They are the actual actions taken by our officials! Not what second-handers are saying. Lastly, I gotta admit: I personally find it off-putting that a president (Trump or anyone!) would take 2+ consecutive weekends off to golf in the middle of these times. I mean, a man needs his rest; but golly! he and I are just wired differently.

I am so happy. That's his magic. You are trying to strawman titles - it's ok - but it is disingenuous. It's disappointing. We know the Pence was not talking about nuance of this really being the first wave. If read it article - he is saying the virus is under control and we are not seeing an upswing. Fauci was using his words to indicate that we were never out of the first wave and never had this under control. But I get it - you don't think there is anything we can do or that the government can do (with words or actions) that can stop this virus and we need to just pull our seats up the bar and take a strong pull. How about ICE saying they will deport students if universities are online? Astounding leadership! Let's try to punish those liberal institutions and their brainwashed students if they do they decide the right thing is to do online school for part of the year. I am sure we can all agree these guys need to get the hell out of our country - right?

It’s not, but the thought is having a bus directly pick up your players is safer than going through an airport.

I glad a reasonable response sounds "nice" to you. It is a start - like I said. Once we have a baseline understanding of how serious this is - then we can start actually making policy that people should be able to understand and follow. Lockdowns, mandatory stay in place orders, etc etc. Maybe restricting air travel between states. Enforcing quarantines. Fund *actual* laboratories instead the startup shops by someone's B-school bro. There a lot of actions that can be taken - once you know - we can all agree that this virus is actually dangerous and not Kung-Flu. Instead you have a Senator going to get a haircut from a salon that was violating the county orders in front of cameras for the whole showmanship of it. It's more than just a nicety. It's called leadership.

I’ve been looking into ways to host virtual watch parties of games. I’ve done a couple recently over Facebook Watch watching past games. Some of you have stopped by for a bit. It’s nowhere near as great as going to a live game, but still fun to watch a little football with North Texas faithful.

So Six Flags and Disney World can be opened???

When SEC schools with their inflow of cash are hurting you can only imagine how G5's and lower division schools are hurting.

Whenever I get an update that @Censored by Laurie mentioned me in a comment....I get nervous

@UNTLifer is this where you got your medical degree?

I don't think there will be a football season.

I'm still waiting on mine to come in the mail. Being a subscriber doesn't have it's benefits.

So are you saying all of the protesters not wearing mask were not intelligent?

Wow what? Nothing wrong with what I said

i'm a firm believer in majority rules. i don't really care if some people find it offenseive. why should we change things because some don't like it? if most don't like it, change it...bowing down to a small percentage of folks is pathetic in my eyes and does nothing to help. sucks your feelings were hurt or you were offended...if most want it gone, get rid of it. if most don't want it gone, then don't get rid of it

I am down with being smug.

We should change the name of this forum to CHAZ since it is basically run by liberals, they shout down people with opposing views, operate with their own guidelines and don't contribute much outside of the cozy confines of this forum.

CNN reports that the surge along the border is caused by infected people in Mexico entering the United States for treatment. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/29/health/border-hospitals-coronavirus/index.html

Just what we need. More of the left coast crowd. Texas is becoming more and more "soiled" with these people.
