Damn Mexicans
I think you mispelled Mexians.

I think 38 is a little high. For me, I'd set the line more in the 28-31 range.

Also, the general decay of a civilization has more to do with laziness and inflated senses of self worth, i.e. 'We are better than them because we are Babylonians/Assyrians/Egyptians/Romans/Greeks/British/Americans. After a while successful societies built on hard work and humility become complacent in their old age (nationally speaking of course- we are 225+ yo) and don't do the things that once made them who they were.
Eff the Assyrians.

I'll buy it when some good named rosters drop.
No point in getting it until the game is patched.
Patch 1.01 dropped yesterday, i think. CDJ (username) has good rosters, I'd keep an eye out for his.

How is ol' Waco these days, big spill?

Things are getting tense.
Maybe an old standby bit
Will lead to a hug?

Anybody have any suggestions as to what to do with all of these?
I don't know, but there's this Mexian on my block who'll sell some to you real cheap.

If it's so bad, why do you buy it? Just wondering....I have never played so don't know, but I hear these types of complaints, seems like every year, yet the games keeps selling big time. So, what's up with that? Is it simply the "best of the bad" or is it just UNT's stuff or what?
Folks buy it because there is no other option. EA Sports bought the NCAA license, so no other game developers can compete. With no one to challenge them, they can continue to put out a mediocre game year after year and, if you want to play a college football game, you only have EA's product.

I guess my question now is, what are the arguments for keeping it illegal? Status Quo? Fear?
Mostly this.
Whatever one's views on the legality of marijuana, the plain fact is that it would be political suicide for most politicians to embrace it. The difficulty is that there are relatively few political benefits to embracing the idea of legalized weed. Unless you have an overwhelming pot-smoking constituency, it won't be worth stirring up a conservative and moderate hornet's nest. Even if one subscribes to the idea that 1) it isn't a gateway drug, 2), is no worse health-wise than tobacco or alcohol, and 3) can be taxed to holy hell to provide revenue, you're still going to run into the twin shears of modern political discourse: reductio ad absurdum and straw men arguments.
Put simply, if you support legalization, you're going to be labeled a hippie lib pothead who can't be trusted with any meaningful decisions, much less elected office. Right or wrong, that will be your calling card, and gives your opponent more than enough rope to hang you. What benefit could there be for a politician for such a cost?

Thoughts? Better or worse than 2009?

Dude, at least read the book if you're going to use it for either side.
Typical Tory loyalist drivel...

I have on one shoulder, and on the other, Chuck.
Billy Tubbs?

Is it just me, or is every thread in the Non-UNT sports forum pretty much a hard count to draw the other team offsides?

I like a couple on the board used to smoke a goodly amount of Marijuana, especially during my time at Bruce Hall and living on Hickory Street...
Plae-Lo-Dee and Kid Flossy Fresh, indeed. Tenacious D would never approve of your heathen ways.
If we are outlawing based on potential volatility, I think the first thing I'd nix is the famed smirnoff ice/carlo rossi/jack daniels drinking progression.

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I just can't bring myself to put money on NT being appreciably better this year. I think that, if the stars align just right, we could probably squeak out a 4 win season.
1) Lean heavily on your running backs. They are too talented not to find a way to mix them into your offense. I would shoot for as close to 50-50% as possible in a Dodge spread offense. Two and three back sets shouldn't be out of the question, including power sets with tight ends and fullbacks. Good things happened for North Texas when Cam and Lance got the ball, and I hope that the coaching staff takes this to heart. The only three wins in the Dodge Era had, cumulatively, a run-pass ratio of 48-52%.
2) Minimize Riley Dodge's exposure. This is the big pitfall of this next season. I think Papa Todd will be quick to rush Riley into play, and bank on his knowledge of the system and mobility to keep him out of trouble. I also think he'll get a rude adjustment to the college game, and we'll all be sitting here week 3 wondering when Nathan Tune is going to get his shot. If, however, Coach Dodge can limit Riley's effect on the game, and trust his other weapons, a multi-win season could be in the works.
3) Get anything out of your defense and special teams. When you are last in the nation in defense, and give up 28 points a game in a bad conference, all other points become somewhat moot. With an offense that can score points, you just need a defense with a pulse. If you're not going to be a wall, at least do you best to get in the way and make things tough for the other guy. That has NEVER happened since Coach Dodge came to town, and this team will flounder without it. Being able to make 80% of your extra points would be useful, too. And being able to kick the ball away without the other guy getting half the field back is another useful trick.
Now, do I expect all of these things to happen? Absolutely not. Do I expect any of them to happen? Probably not. But, if there is to be improvement this year, it'll likely need to come from one of these sources.

Will RV wrestle a bear that later kills people?
Yes... until DD shows up with a meat-shield made of children.

So does that make him like the confused ABA ref who calls a technical foul and ejects the player after the first completed alleyoop?
Kinda... more like a official going by the books until he is told the rules have changed.
Welcome back.

Why go with Sean Bass? He's got Ticket stank and all the family-unfriendliness that accompanies it all over him. Screw that guy and his super sexy voice.
I used to do play-by-play for a 5-A Metroplex high school's TV broadcasts. And Quoner once had three sacks in one game when he played against Denton Ryan, which makes him a perfect ex-jock color guy. Plus, we're both in relatively good shape and we're good with kids. Family friendliness galore!
Forget Dunham and his years of experience and his exceptional aptitude and his strong passion and enthusiasm for all things Mean Green. That guy is OLD NEWS. What we need is some fresh blood, and blood doesn't get any fresher than the two of us. Because Quoner and I bathe daily in the blood of human fetuses (helpfully provided by CBL and his east coast abortionist-communist cabal).
Think about it, people. Who wants Dunham and his Marconi award nominations and his prominent position with a local radio powerhouse that allows him to promote our university and teams to almost every man ages 18-49 in the Metroplex? You could have two guys, one who barely speaks English and the other with a horrifying speech impediment, who have arguably the 5th or 6th most popular North Texas-centric website in the greater Dallas/Fort Worth area.
The only stumbling block may be the fact that I'm a Haredi Jew. But all we have to do is get the Athletics Department and all our opponents to reschedule any games that might be on a Saturday (I think we may have one or two... No big deal!) so that I can work and use the necessary technology for broadcasting.
Let's make it happen, people. BELIEVE IT!!!!
Whenever I see a Quoner or Tasty post, I feel like a member of an all-white basketball team playing the Harlem Globetrotters: so completely mesmirized by dribbling wizardry and flashy passes that I don't know what's happening until I'm getting dunked on.

Although it is a reasonable goal, I think you'd have to be a little crazy to say you're truly "happy" with four wins. Personally, I wouldn't be happy unless we posted a winning record. Four wins would just be "not quite as unhappy."
