  1. Really, what "statistics" do you have that say black men are better athletes than white men? Besides, I could show you a study done in the 40's that said black men had a smaller brain than white men. Now, we all know that's not true, so I doubt that a person's race makes them a better athlete. Ive seen plenty of evidence of that at 24hr fitness. Before you say there is no relevance, realize that you are talking genetics. There are no genetics that make blacks better athletes and whites smarter. Coaches put middle school and high school atheltes at certain postions. Many times they move a white kid to fullback or tight end without giving them a fair chance, just like the move black kids away from quarterback positions without giving them a fair chance. Remember we all bleed the same color, green. What is black and white and read all over? this post
  2. Thank you, that is exactly what I was about to post. Yes racism does still exist, but it goes BOTH ways!!!! A white child wants to be a running back, stick him at the fullback position. A white child wants to be a a reciever, put him at tight end. No questions asked, stick him there. Let the white kids be the linemen. Yeah, there are a few white kids at those "skill" postions, but they have a huge uphill battle to get the chance to play the position. I think sometimes its harder for them to get a chance at those positions than it is for a black player to get a chance at quarterback. Don't think so, check the numbers. I don't know where to check, but Im willing to say that I am dead on on this. It seems that many want to focus on the racism on hiring coaches, but want to deny the racism in the actaul game itself. Shouldn't the best player and coach get the job?
  3. Why does it always have to be a race issue? The best guy should get the job. RF didn't get any job offers becuase he's bad, not because he is black.
  4. Don't take all of this so personally. If I took everything directed at me personally, I wouldn't be here. You are welcome to your opinion, we are welcome to ours. Alot of people just do not agree with you on this issue, and it was backed up. So someone took a jab or two, get over it. I have to all the time. You'll be ok
  5. ????? You're kidding right? Are you one of those who doesn't like Simon Says because it teaches "deception" or don't like dodgeball in elementry schools because it creates winners and losers? Most of us are saying wait until the end of the season before anything is done, unless the team just starts to suck, which we don't think will happen. Why should Coach Slinker be on the hot seat? Look at her record, 5 winning seasons our of 16? 2 NIT appearances where we were blown out. I was at the game at OSU, Emmitt and Brad Olsen can vouch for that The game was not even close, even though the score may not seem bad. She recruits some good players, but we are ALWAYS undersized when it comes to playing a good program, which is where we should be trying to get. Most of us are not saying she needs to be shown the door, but she needs to be on the hot seat. And on the facilities BS, the Super Pit is one of the nicest basketball facilites I have been to. It is right up there with Baylor, SMU, TCU and OK St Im not saying its better, but it competes right with them. Some have a slightly better atmostphere inside the arena, some have better lighting, and some have a better concourse. But I have not been to a single arena yet where I say that it is without a doubt better than the Pit. The Pit underwent major changes beginning with Trilli. We went from those aweful 70's orange seats, to the now green ones, replaced the floor, painted the new floor with lighter green so it will show up better on TV, put in 2 new scoreboards with the video screen, added the statistics boards, and they are now renovating the outside. When it comes to basketball, facilites CANNOT be used as an excuse.
  6. 2/2 rent would be around $400-$450 + splitting utilities. Easy Access to US 75 and 380, about 30 minutes from UNT in average traffic, 15-20 in good traffic. Scenic view and view of pool from balcony. Just about completely furnished. Good office staff (5x-10x better than the staff at the student complexes) If you or someone you know would be interested, pm me.
  7. Coach, Im not going to imply that you are lying to me about Keyshawn. I know your knowledge of the game, so if you say he was playing balls out, I believe you. What I am saying is that I did not see that level of play. Maybe you paid closer attention to the game than I did at times. What I did see was him in a verbal argument with Parcells during a game. I did see several pics that were thrown to him, where he did not attempt to disrupt the pic, or make the catch. I did see him come out of the game on a couple of occasions for what really appeared as a phantom injury. I did see a few very nice plays, and I will give him credit for those plays. If you say he played balls out, I believe you, I just did not see it with me own eyes.
  8. I didnt see his ankle get caught. I don't like him because he has a big mouth, and I have not seen the same level of play you have. Sorry he broke his ankle, that does suck.
  9. I knew I spoke too soon, what a way to lose Did anyone see just how exactly KJ got his booboo? I saw the play, and I saw the replay. I can't tell where he hurt it.
  10. Not too bad so far against NYG. But Im laughing at how much praise Vinny is getting from the announcers. I don't think they are capable of saying anything negative about him.
  11. Are you serious? YES. It is all of the coaches fault that NOONE realized that there werent 5 ladies in white jerseys on the court right in front of the team bench. Im not saying fire Slinker, but this ship needs to be righted.
  12. I wouldnt say it is time for her to go, but it is time for some imporvements. If those do not happen, then that possibility will be on the hoizon.
  13. We didn't play too well, and I thought there was some contact on that 5 second call. Seriously, losing to TUA? Why even play them? If you win, big deal, if you lose, it hurts. I like Coach Slinker, but the women's team has been slipping since we lost Jalie. Something needs to change, and quick. Even when we were winning, we were losing to "bigger teams". Our girls looked like high school players in size and ability when playing top programs, even though they usually kept them close. My point is that while we were good, we never seemed to get better and bigger. Now I think we have started regressing. I hope we can change things for the better.
  14. Didn't we already post this story? Oh wait, this is a different one. All of these stories on tu players getting in trouble start to run together after a while. <_
  15. Next time you attempt that joke, try telling it right I know they hit dry dock this time every year, and I know the other shows go on vacation as well. But if you listened to the show, you would have heard Korby telling Mike and Greg that he had a job doing the midday slot on KZPS, you would have heard Mike telling Mickey that this was his last show. I hope they change their mind and come back. But, if not, does anyone know why they cancelled the show. That was the point of this thread.
  16. Hey, I would love to develop our young qbs, but there is only one way to develop them, and he aint doing that. Side note, anyone else seen the WR from Hawaii? He looks shorter than alot of recievers, but soft hands that balls stick to like glue, and he is a solid wall of muscle. I was watching the Mich St game and this kid was running defenders over, or at least knocking them down on his way down. Coach, did you get my pm I sent you?
  17. Well, I was on my way to the game, but: More than halfway to Denton from McKinney down 380, I caught traffic. The highway was at a dead standstill in both directions, from an accident. I hit it at about 7:10, I turned around at 8:10. In that 1 hour, I did not even move a mile. I love winter weather, but I wish people would learn to drive in it.
  18. No, this wasn't dry dock, it was ship coming in to port for good. I think they really did end the show.
  19. I tuned into the hardline late this afternoon only to hear that this was their last show. I, like all of us, got tired of Mike's UNT bashing, but I still enjoyed listening? Anyone know why, of have some info on what happened?
  20. Is anyone really suprised that Vinny Interceptaverde will be starting. He will start next week, and we will go into next season with 2 unproven quarterbacks and one that is at the end of his career. We will have answered non of the qb questions. Maybe we can at least draft Timmy Chang.
  21. I read the title of the thread and thought this post was from any of the past several years.
  22. I don't call Irvin's damn near paralizing injury and to's broken ankle karma. Ill wait till to goes to the hospital unconsious before I call karma. But I won't be cheering when that happens, unlike fillie fans.
  23. Guess he won't be dancing anytime soon. i would play for free anytime Fillie came to play at Dallas, just so I could drill his sorry @$$ anytime he tried to show off on our star.
