I call BS on this one. BCS- "We're going to a plus one model" Pac10- "We'll leave the BCS then" BCS- "Ok, less pie to have to split then" Pac10- "We've got an idea. How 'bout a plus one model?"

You remind me so much of the teenager with middle class parents who asks every day up until Christmas for a new car. Every day his parents tell him that groceries, rent, utilities, gas and the four club sports he's playing all drain the household budget...yet every day the question is the same, "When will I get a car?" Then, come Christmas morning he gets a PS3 that his dad hunted long and hard for, new clothes, and a Christmas card saying his parents have started to put money into a college fund. The kid then looks up at his parents and says "Yeah, this is all nice and all but all I asked for was a car! Why don't you love me?!" Sad.

Here Dodge2007 this is for you. For humors sake and all.

Good to see Dionne Warwick isn't the only one with a psychic friend. In all seriousness, my issue with this goes to outrageous and outlandish posts stating that "Woody had better get used to the bench" or "Meager will lead us to new heights" when in fact NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, in Meager's past states that he can perform when the lights come on. (Oh yeah, and the guy who's touting Meager's greatness just happens to have a grand total of 102 posts lifetime) Sure, he was the leader coming out of the spring but you yourself just said that Woody didn't get to participate because of class...might that be WHY Meager is ahead right now? Last I checked the only quarterback currently on this roster to take over a game himself had the initials WW, and the only QB on this roster to ever lead a touchdown drive against UT has the initials WW, and the quarterback with the highest completion percentage last season has the initials WW. So, come to think of it, maybe my issue has EVERYTHING to do with ability.

SMU takes a beating in this thread as well. They do sorta have a point when it comes to saying we can't do too much complaining when so few bother to show up to games as it is.

You know as well as I do that it's not what we've seen over the last two seasons but what we hope to see this year that is keeping us sane.

Not to pile on but CFN has us winning a grand total of 2 games. Please September, hurry!!

Ok, now you've lost me completely. Which isn't to say you hadn't lost me 10 bold/baseless predictions ago, but now I'm not sure we're both speaking English anymore.

Coaches telling fans to "kiss my woody"? That's got to be some kind of NCAA violation.

I heard it wouldn't start until Meager could get the Bible rewritten to read..."and on the 7th day God started at North Texas, relegating Woody Wilson to the bench."

I wouldn't get too worried about adopting their pants.

If you go to meangreensports.com right now you can see another part of our new uniforms. It's black shoes.

I really hated this part:

For those that don't dig the "It's wide Open" slogan on our football advertising this season, SMU has done us one better...or should I say one worse? http://www.ponyfans.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=24246

This article is a far far cry from the 2009 concrete date bandied about on this board.

You have the sheer audacity to lump me in with criminals, not just rogue cops but criminals, all the while throwing out straw man arguments left and right to defend your stances that have come under perfectly logical and cogent attacks? That I'm replying at all shows that my temper and pride have gotten the better of my judgement because you are on face ridiculous and unworthy of a retort. But, as I'm in a foul mood after working a 70 week this week to take real drugs and thugs off the streets (Every hear of the Aryan Brotherhood?) I find myself replying to someone who hasn't the common decency or sense to differentiate difference of opinion from personal attacks. You bring up Deep Ellum as if it is the paragon of what a downtown area should be like. I actually patrol your utopia and let me tell you it aint as pretty as you'd like to make it out to be. The "artists" who inhabited it for your 20 year golden age simply did not have the capital (ooh, there's a dirty word) to sustain their bars and clubs while catering to local artists and charging "reasonable" cover at the door. Clubs that catered to a younger, more rambunctious, and sadly more criminal element could pack em in Mon-Sun so they thrived in the buildings abandoned by your champions of what socialism can do in America. Now could the city of Dallas have stepped in repeatedly to subsidize clubs like Trees, DaDa, etc? Sure, but why? Is it really a reasonable expectation that the city's tax rolls should perpetually bear the burden of funding a playground for a fringe element? Now I don't say fringe element as a derogatory term, only to say it was a miniscule population when compared to the greater population of Dallas...thought I'd save you the trouble of limiting your rebuttal to a single meaningless term in my post as you did the last time. More importantly, though, and I can't believe that in your 5 page long crusade for credibility on this topic you haven't realized this yet FRY STREET AND DEEP ELLUM WERE NEITHER DEMOGRAPHICALLY NOR FINANCIALLY SIMILIAR. Even if your argument weren't flawed your comparison is apples to oranges. Lest we get off on the wrong foot here realize that I don't dislike you or even know you for that matter. But I will, in all cases, take you to task when you have the unfettered gall to lump me in with the lesser of my compatriots.

I disagree completely. Major chain businesses with corporate attitudes won't tolerate miscreants on their front stoop. The Tomato and the like, with their "come one come all...no matter how weird" attitudes did.

And I am extremely glad that "aesthetic and crowd" now need to find a new place to be useless.

Yeah, I did notice the date. I just thought maybe you were clairvoyant...or had fabricated that whole story.

Why bring me into it? I only respond to outlandish statements veiled as concrete truth when they are bandied about. This, to me, looks like as good a guess as anyone's.

Where is this on the athletics website? I see no link to it on the main page.

So he wants to go to any of the Big XII schools and if not there any of the DFW schools? Gee, quite a surprise.
