  1. I drove by the Pit this morning and the flashing billboard said that there was a double header tonight.

    "Women: UNT vs. Hampton; Men: UNT vs. Southern"

    That's embarassing. Hopefully, someone will have that corrected before UT gets to the colesium. Also, it might help attendance if women's b-ball fans actually saw that we were playing UT on the sign; not Hampton.

    I see UT beating our women by about 30. (Would be thrilled if we gave them a game, but UT is just so good).

    I think the men's game will be close, but we will prevail (by less than 10).

  2. So we know that the great all-knowing Tuna won't play Drew Henson or Tony Romo next week, against Philly.

    So then, after Philly puts the final nail into the playoff hopes coffin....will the genius let a backup QB play the last two games?

    And if he does....will they have enough time (two games) to show what they have?

    No.

    Parcells blew this season when he put Testaverde in the 2nd half of the game on Turkey Day.

    At that point, he could have given either Drew or Tony 6 weeks to show what they had.

    But no, we got Vinny.....who was pathetic today. You gonna tell me that the other guys couldn't have been at least that good?

    Parcells may be a great coach. But he sure isn't planning well for the Cowboys future. I guess they go into next year with VT as their QB. Of course, then he'll be 42 (but have the body of a 32 year old).

    Yeah right.

  3. UNT alum and actor Thomas Hayden Church (he played Lowell, the mechanic on the sitcom "Wings" is getting a lot of accolades for his role in the movie, "Sideways"---I've heard it's a great flick, btw.

    After reading this about one of UNT's own, I wonder if he might have a good shot at an Oscar nomination:

    LOS ANGELES - "Sideways," a quirky comedy about two friends on a road trip through California's wine country, was picked as 2004's best film by the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the group announced Saturday.

    The movie won four other awards: best director for Alexander Payne; best supporting actor for Thomas Haden Church; best supporting actress for Virginia Madsen; and best screenplay, which was written by Alexander Payne and Jim Taylor.

  4. Joel Edwards and Keoke Cotner, both UNT alums who are pro golfers, are playing in the final round of the PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament.

    Joel has, as many know, played several years on the PGA Tour (and won the British Columbia PGA tour event a few years ago; winning over a $1 million on the tour that year).

    Cotner, has played for several years, in the next level of pro golf, The Nationwide Tour.

    As of right now....Cotner is tied for 20th....Edwards is 31st. The top 30 (and ties) qualify for the PGA Tour; the next 50 (and ties) qualify for the Nationwide Tour.

    With a little luck (and good play) today, we could have two NT exes on the PGA Tour next year.

    Good luck, JE and KC!

  5. Two things that encourage me about the signing of Justin:

    1) Billy Gillespie, the new A & M coach, wanted him badly.......and Gillespie is one heckuva judge of talent. (see UTEP which won 24 games or so last year in Gillespie's second year, and is expected to win the WAC again this year).

    2) If Justin was just mopping up on 2A players, that would be one thing. But remember he did extremely well in Summer League games, against talented players from 5A and 4A schools.

  6. 18th!? 18th?!

    Let me just say, I don't even know who the bowling coach is, but I am calling for his/her "head". Fire him/her, now!

    Just kidding, untbowler.

    BTW.....have you ever heard, that when they built the new Union Building (back in the 70's), they were going to put a bowling alley in there? But were talked out of it, by local business people, who told them that they were putting a new bowling alley in town. Those business people never followed through by building a new bowling alley in town. (Back then anyway......one came in 15 years later or so).

    good luck to you and the team the rest of the year.

  7. An ugly start.....but it doesn't matter how you start, it's how you finish........

    We're now 3-1 and have a big home game next Saturday against TCU.

    Our defense is incredible this year.

    Hop had 22 , all in the 2nd half.

    Ty Thomas kept us in the game, with 14 of our 30 1st half points.

    Everyone contributed......to this win. Great win, Mean Green!
