You're dang right! Totally forgot about Rios! -
Rangers trade news
TheFranchise replied to UNT90's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
I wonder what this means with Nellie, though. Like, did we trade for Fielder in order to replace Nellie, or is this to put Beltre-Fielder-Cruz 3-4-5 in the lineup. I would hope the latter, because we'd freakin' mash! -
Rangers trade news

This excites me. Profar was going to be stuck riding the pine last season and between Kins, Profar and Andrus, I viewed Kinsler as the most expendable. Now, I loved Kins as much as the next person, but I got really tired of the IKPU towards the end of the season. -
Many people that buy tickets to Apogee intend to use them, not sell them. Plus, with tickets still available for first-time purchase, most aren't going to go to StubHub and pay above face value. If I can get a $30 ticket (with like $5 in TicketMaster fees) for $35, why would I go to StubHub and pay $40 for a ticket, plus a transaction fee of like $5 for a total of $45? Now, if the game was already sold out, then I'd understand using StubHub.

OK We Have a Gentleman's Wager with RowdyTalk.com!
TheFranchise replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
You're good, Holmes. I come from a military family, which has taught me a few things: 1 -- A uniform does not instantly validate your opinion. 2 -- An idiot in a uniform is still an idiot. 3 -- One idiot in a uniform does not mean everyone in the same uniform is an idiot. 4 -- A true veteran appreciates the work of other vets, regardless of which uniform they wore. Thank you for your service as well, sir. I'm eternally grateful. That goes for every vet I encounter.- 270 replies

What's your connection and why do you follow UNT?
TheFranchise replied to Travis's topic in Mean Green Football
That's awesome, man! I LOVE that we have what some other schools would refer to as "T-shirt fans." In my book, fans are fans. And any program worth their salt would NEVER turn away a fan of their program. That's why I've always found that to be a stupid term. Glad to have ya', smoothfresh and let's hope this program continues to make us even more proud each week! As for me, I've worked in different aspects of broadcasting for over a decade, now. (television, radio, online journalism -- I covered every professional sports team here in D/FW at some point or another as well as the TCU football and baseball teams) But, sports is a hobby to me and my real passion is film. You see, I graduated high school back in '97 but have slowly taken hours here and there but never earned a degree. At the end of 2010, during a brief job change from the world of investments back into television, my wife and I decided I needed to finally finish earning my Bachelors. Without hesitation, UNT was my first and only choice because of our outstanding RTVF program, but I was going to need to get my basics done first. I enrolled part-time at TCC and within 3 semesters I had earned my Associates. This past January, I set foot onto the UNT campus as a student for the first time at the age of 33. I'm planning to graduate within the next 2 years with my Bachelor of Arts in Radio, Television and Film with a heavy emphasis on film. After that, I want to make films full-time. I already have a few ideas and plan to share them with the world when the time is right!!!!! *Yes, some have a sports theme . . . who am I kidding? Most of them do.* In the meantime, I plan to study my butt off, brainwash my two children into being all green all the time, and catching every UNT sporting event I can. After all, as a student I get in for FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! -
Football vs. Library argument popping up again

Football vs. Library argument popping up again
TheFranchise replied to JesseMartin's topic in Mean Green Football
I chimed in, too. It's still awaiting moderation, apparently. -
I have been to the dome. Many times. In fact, I've even marched on the field (H. S. Band) and been to a couple of events there. It was pretty good at the time it was built. I have no complaints. But, have you been to Apogee? In my opinion, it's really apples and oranges. I hope your visit is an enjoyable one . . . until kickoff.

Mac says they will wear the black uni's for the UTEP game!
TheFranchise replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
Never! We think pretty highly of you around here. I simply found an opportunity to shoehorn in some Mony Python and took it. -

Buttermilk got hosed, man. They smoked Lemon Meringue at the Thanksgiving Classic last year and are heavily favored again this time. And Brown Sugar? Come on! Who's even heard of them!?- 452 replies

The problem is, that they are "general admission" seats. Stuff like that usually works if you have a colored piece of posterboard/cardboard on a seat waiting for the person that occupies it. But, we have no "seats." Just bleachers. I guess it could still work, but it's logistically a little tougher for us. That said, it would be cool to pull off.

Some advice for those looking for good Tex-Mex in the Denton area. Put on a pair of wind pants or sweat pants. (You'll know why post-meal) Get on 377 and head south to Roanoke. Drive past the Wal-Mart and the 114 intersection to the Albertson's parking lot. Turn into it. Drive past the McDonald's and you'll see a little slice of Tex-Mex heaven called Los Molcajetes. It's right next to the liquor store. Order the Carne Asada. Enjoy the chips and salsa while you wait. No need to thank me.- 452 replies

I'm planning on stopping by and meeting some faces to go with screen names this afternoon. I'll have two of my brothers with me as well. If anyone was to offer us a beer or two, we wouldn't refuse . . . -

Words really don't do that stand justice. I was giddy and honestly had no doubt what was about to happen . . . On the first four plays. But that second time around!? Holy crap. Watching that Rice QB run for his life on that second fourth down almost made me feel sorry for the dude. Almost. I mean, it's his own dang fault for strolling into Apogee against that defense on Halloween night, am I right!?
