    You just miss out on more of the whole bowl and team hoopla if you don't stay at the team hotel.    I did it both ways back in the 2000's, definitely more fun staying at the team hotel.  A lot more going on, ran into a lot more MG fans, university people, players and a very entertaining/uncomfortable ride in the elevator with George D.  Feels a lot more like being a part of the whole thing.

    This is exactly what I needed to know, thank you! Team hotel it is! 

  2. I have a Sony Xperia Ion running Android 4.0.4 and I have no problems with podcasts or reading new topics. Everything seems to be working fine for me!

    Edit: I am also using the stock browser and not Chrome or anything else.

  3. These are usually pretty amusing, but this one struck a nerve:

    06:58 Attempted Suicide - A complainant reported a medical emergency, 1379 S. Bonnie Brae, Victory Hall, Denton. It was determined the medical incident was an attempted suicide and the patient was transported, by Denton EMS, to a medical facility. Emergency care notifications were conducted and an incident report was completed..

    Bstn,

    You were an RA at Victory right? Are there non-student-athletes that live there other than the RA's?

    I have some friends that live there who are non-student-athletes.

  4. While waiting outside class today, I overheard a girl talking about UNT. I didn't hear the entire conversation, but what I did hear was "I don't know why they tried to teach me the fight song, I'm not learning it, I don't care. I don't really care about UNT, I just want to get my degree and leave"

  5. I know you're not "Mr. Army guy," which is a nickname for someone else and I added that remark in parentheses as an additional response. I should hope you could tell the difference...

    And I did not mention that was your mentality, did I? No. I was talking about the general student population so arguing your own personal experience is pointless when that is not the topic issue or the concern to begin with.

    And great, there was about 500 other students who had the same mentality as you. Do you think I was talking about them? No.

    Well when you quote my entire post and write something else, it would make sense that you're talking to me.. My own personal experience as a student seems pretty relevant to a discussion about student attendance. To me the weather wasn't that bad and wasn't a good reason not to go. To each their own I suppose. As far as the administration goes, could they do more? Of course. It's not like they don't put in any effort at all though. They do a pretty good job of advertising other sporting events at football/basketball games. They have facebook/twitter accounts which are the social networks that the majority of the student body uses and update their statuses all season about our athletics.

  6. Something else I already mentioned. I was not aware ponchos were available for purchase. Who was? Plus it was raining before the game to begin with. (WHICH, Mr. Army man, is why, with COMMON-SENSE of the forecast students did not show up.)

    I don't think any student was aware of that before they arrived which prevented many from going.

    And again, as I mentioned, students are cheap, tell them they have to buy something and their mentality is, "screw that."

    I like how the two post against my post are both about issues I already originally addressed and explained. /facepalm.

    I didn't know they were available either but I went anyways prepared to get wet while cheering on my school and watch history be made. Also, I'm also a student (not Mr. Army man) and my mentality wasn't "screw that." I even saw people that didn't want to spend money use trash bags as ponchos. They might have been issues you already addressed, but they're also issues that other students who went had to face as well and they didn't let it stop them.

  7. I can't you bball fans any smack without the overreaction? How many times have those on the football board seen the exact same thing posted about basketball. Just trying to give some of it back.

    Call me when your team wins a D1 game...

    Hate to break it to ya, but it's YOUR team too!
