  1. Football is a violent game, and people get hurt playing it. Over-protective parents refusing to let their kids play is not new. Yet despite all these concerns, has football ever been more popular? I played throughout my youth and high school, and yes now I struggle down staircases. But it wasnt until I was playing intramural flag football at North Texas that I tore my knee up in a non-contact injury. Same thing happened to my daughter. Also non-contact. You can get hurt playing any sport - or not playing any sport. You cant live your life being worried about whether or not you might get hurt. My son is 15 years old and is already 6'3 245 lbs. He started on varsity at Tackle the 2nd half of his Soph. season last fall. Of course I worry about him getting hurt. But I still will encourage him to play this great game for as long as he possibly can - because in my opinion no other sport compares to the greatness of football.
  2. This is shaping up nicely. I like our chances of signing this kid. With him and McNair in the middle - along with the addition of English - I could see our run D getting better pretty quickly.
  3. Man this is ugly... http://ntdaily.com/affidavit-report-shows-kidsy-lied-to-police-about-whereabouts-on-night-of-denton-hit-and-run/ The witness, the police said, judged the accident as intentional.
  4. Sidway tweeted that Jamal Marshall was also removed from the roster, like he was the passenger. But wasnt Marshall a Senior last year anyhow?
  5. Dayum. Makes it sound like he drove up onto the sidewalk to run them down intentionally.
  6. Wonder if it was another player that was with him too.
  7. Capper said he was with Mean Joe today... At least somebody asked him.
  8. As an Allen alum, this loss is extra salty.
  9. Someone reported the hire was finalized and said it would be announced tomorrow. If thats true, I think it has to be Meacham. Littrell wouldnt want it announced that he was leaving UNC the week of their championship game - as it would be a distraction for the team.
  10. That Danny White was a great guy. When I was in high school at Allen (playing for the great Ken Purcell - speaking of AD's) a friend that went to church with Danny got him to let us take his custom van to our prom. That was in '84 when he was still playing for the Cowboys - so we thought we were pretty cool lol.
  11. Willie Ivery needs more carries. At Tenn he had 4 for 44 yards, averaging 11 yards per. His average on the season is 6.4 yards per carry. I love Wilson too, but Ivery shines with the very limited opportunities he is given. I think it is a glaring oversight that he isnt a bigger part of the offense.
