  1. I noticed a strobe light high up in the rafters going off every 30 seconds or so... I can only assume it is to keep the bats out.
  2. Don't use the words "go down" and "Oral Roberts" in the same sentence. You may be cast out or smitten or something like that....
  3. I was shocked... just like Cpt. Renault. "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!" "Your winnings, sir." "Oh, thank you..."
  4. I was in the student section at the other end of the court and I could see that.
  5. What's the point of having a camera crew and jumbo-tron if we're not going to have a $200 monitor at the scoring table? Replay clearly showed we were screwed.
  6. If Brian's Song doesn't make you cry, you're not human.
  7. One school has already done this. http://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/stories...ry.330b1d3.html Officials at McMurry University in Abilene have announced that, henceforth, the school's sports teams will have no mascot and not even a nickname. Better not to have one, school officials say, than to cave in completely to an NCAA edict that the Division III institution change its 83-year tradition of calling its athletic teams the "Indians." The NCAA placed McMurry on a list of schools with Native American nicknames. The use of the Indian mascot, the association says, can create a "hostile and abusive" environment.
  8. It would be a gamble, but it could have a huge payoff. Can you imagine Dodge's system being run at UNT? Chase Daniel went to Missouri and the coach implemented aspects of the SLC system... look where they are now. I know Riley will probably go to a big school (I think he wants to commit to A&M), but what if he had a chance to be a starter for his Dad in a familiar system?
  9. How did I get to UNT... Well, let's see. I joined the Navy for 6 years after high school, then got into first level tech support in Wisconsin. After two years there I was recruited by Microsoft and moved to Irving, TX. After getting my MCSE there, and a few more Help Desk jobs, I got my first LAN Admin job for a travel survey company. 9/11 happened and I was laid off two days later. Four months of unemployment and interviewers asking "Do you have a degree???" I then decided to finally get my degree. Dallas County Community for 2 years and then I applied and was accepted to UTA, UT-Austin, UT-Dallas, UNT, and SMU. And here I am, three semesters to graduation!
  10. That kind of thing went out of style in the 1970s.
  11. I guess McCaa is used to his antics.. he went to commercial without missing a beat.
  12. Was he whining because they called the World Series win "breaking news"??
  13. Top 10 non-threatening college mascots 10. Mule Riders: Southern Arkansas 9. Classics: Cedor Crest College (Pa.) 8. Quakers: University of Pennsylvania, Guilford College (N.C.), Wilmington College (Ohio), Earlham College (Ind.) 7. Pilgrims: New England College (N.H.) 6. Squirrels: Mary Baldwin College (Va.) 5. Terrapins: Maryland — College Park 4. Violets: New York University 3. Vixen: Sweet Briar College (Va.) 2. Ichabods: Washburn University (Kan.) 1. Poets: Whittier College (Calif.)
  14. Ahh, OK I did not know that. Great news for the basketball team... see you all Wednesday night!
  15. Actually, it is not counting the UNC-C win...
  16. At that is only counting the one win on Friday night, not the UNC-Charlotte victory.
  17. It would be one thing to say Dr. Bataille places an emphasis on academics or music... but to say she doesn't know football just because she is a woman?
  18. Apparently one of our players started talking smack to the fans with a minute left in the game, and one of our assistants told him to stop.
  19. Sure it's possible... since nobody buys that rag.
  20. Florida's only loss was to #11 Auburn. They should be the #3 team. I looked up the Harris Poll (the only poll that put USC at #3) and found there sure are a disproportionate number of former PAC-10 players/coaches who have votes.
  21. Leadership? Pulling the team together? Unparalleled success?? Sorry, Mattress Mac... I just don't see it.
