Whoops... my mistake.

Saw two UA t-shirts at the campus bookstore. One is long sleeved. The other is short sleeved and costs over $30. Both are hunter green.

But... But.... I thought we Didn't Go There To Lose!?!? I'm packing up my desk and leaving.

Not if he was ever on scholarship.

This could be their Tulsa game.

I agree with every single thing on this list, to one degree or another. I even agree that Meager deserves a break... he struggled and made some mistakes, but though he has a lot of work still to do, this was not as discouraging as the Meager of old. I'm not on board with him yet, but I was glad to hear Dodge say in the post-game that he plans to start Meager next week. That's something that I never thought I would be happy to hear, but I do think the guy handled himself better than I expected against OU. I'd give the corners a little bit of a break... I think Roman just had a terrible game and will hopefully grow and bounce back from the experience. And I think that the uniforms aren't perfect... but at least they're not something worse. I would be willing, even happy to accept the uniforms as-is if it came with a binding guarantee that I wouldn't have to see any discussion of them for at least 24 months. And I think you're joking about this being a plot to make SMU overconfident... though I do hope they get run down and worn out on Monday, then think they have an easy game ahead of them because of our score. It'll make it that much easier to get the win I expect in their house. Great post.

Man, that Stoops. What a dick. Can you believe how he ran up the score in the second half? Oh, wait... Nevermind.

Please, please don't leave. Carribbean Green has been pushed over the edge. Quoner has been neutered. We need you, MGE. Stick around. Fight the good fight.

I am about as big a DD backer as there still is in this world, not that I wish we still had him and not that I think he shouldn't have been fired. But the answer is, YES. We did look this bad under DD. That's not a viable argument. What really hurts me is that when Dickey was our coaching the past 2 years, MeanMag and I actually had several conversations where we wondered whether the fans of other teams actively dreaded game days. I used to see and hear games and be actively unhappy. Just miserable. Frustrated by failure to execute and inability to make any progress, even against poor defenses. And I thought that those days were over. That I would no longer dread game days and wouldn't have to watch games with a sick sense of defeat in my stomach throughout. I was looking forward to this game, not for a win, but for the absence of frustration and embarassment. What sucks is, it isn't gone. It's back. I think next week will be much better. And I think we will reap results from Dodge that we couldn't have gotten from Dickey. But right now, right this second, I am as embarassed and ashamed as I have ever been by my team. I still love North Texas, and I'm still watching. But this feels as bad as anything I felt watching a Dickey game.

Not laying the blame for this on Meager by any means... but it isn't out of the question that you might both be right.

Just think... If we'd never come back up from I-AA... this could have been us! Quick... someone cut 15 scholarships and cancel plans to replace Fouts! Who wants to be the next Boise State when we could be the next Appalachian State so much easier?

Fixed.

Holy crap... I had no idea: We're emulating MTSU?? We're doomed....

Careful... He'll kick your ass for even suggesting such a thing. Rumors abound, though.

Very funny. Or is it? I don't know what to think anymore...

Actually, that would be Gloria Gaynor. Don't doubt me on this, I paid my way through school performing it in drag at gay discos. Fascinating trivia about "I Will Survive"... One of the last songs recorded by Celia Cruz before she died was "Yo Vivire", a spanish-translated cover version of "I Will Survive". Some say that she was working on a cover version of "Ironic", but wasn't able to finish it before passing away.

Unfortunately, there's no way to get out of our conference game against FIU. So beware of facemasked men carrying crutches.

This is going to be much easier than I thought.

Consider it brought. I've got spirit. Oh yes, I do.

We'll go undercover dressed as upper middle class white guys. They'll never suspect a thing. I'm expecting to come with a party of 10-15. I'm so excited, I may throw up, too.

Beautiful.... Just beautiful. Holy guacamole, I swear I must have laughed for a good 2 minutes when I read that.

Hey, sometimes things like that can go over people's heads. Give him a break, he's new to the board. Besides... he may be right. It can be tough to tell with those UnderArmor socks, but that might actually be an SLC uniform. It was tough for me to tell. Y'know, because it's obviously inspired by the uniforms we wore under Fry with the white helmets.

Wow... Riley really looks great in that North Texas uniform.

All very true and well put. And I'm not saying he was entitled to anything but that chance... I'm just sorry for him that the chance didn't work out.

Woody Wilson- Passes up a Big 12 scholarship offer to come here and try to rescue our Quarterback situation. Shows flashes of brilliance, delivers our biggest win of 2006, struggles, gets benched. Never really gets another chance after that. Whatever happened since Dodge's arrival, I have no idea. Granted, that may not be as sympathetic a story as getting 23 chances to show what you can do and starting almost every game you were ever healthy for, but perhaps we can take a moment of silence amidst all the MeagerMania to note the passing of El Presidente. I wish things had worked out for Wilson, and given the opportunity he sacrificed to come here, I DO feel sorry for him about how things turned out.
