  1. From the athletic website: Prohibited Items Prohibited items include but are not limited to: fireworks, weapons, flag poles, laser pointers, dogs and animals, explosive devices, artificial noise makers, outside food and drink (including tortillas), alcoholic beverages, hard-sided bags, suitcases, glass or metal beverage containers, flasks, coolers, thermoses, aerosol spray cans, umbrellas, seat backs, video recorders and tripods. Banners and Signs Handheld banners, signs and flags are permitted that do not contain profanity or derogatory statements and do not obstruct the view of other spectators. No banners, signs or flags may be hung at Fouts Field without the prior approval of the Athletic Department So it looks like you can bring your flag just not the flagpole.
  2. Thanks for the kind words. We all hope that it is an exciting game so that the TV audience doesn't get bored and turn the channel.

  4. That info is printed at the top of an article on the front page so most everyone that sees a copy of the Daily will know about it.
  5. Tailgating was a non-entity before RV. Student giveaways at games were a non-entity before RV. ESPN never even thought about NT before RV. The new Athletic Center. The new Womens Athletic Facitlity. The Purchase of Liberty Christian. The new soccer field. The new Softball field The new tennis facility. Winning the bid for the SunBelt BB tournament. Plans for the new football stadium. This is just the start. I could go on for days.
  6. We have finally gotten it together enough to get the chant going correctly in a thread. For once I don't feel like I am stuck in an Abbott & Costello routine. NORTH!!!
  7. Ok, I am extra useless at work today. I am ready for the game and I think I am coming down with a case of the, NORTH!!!!
  8. From George Carlin: Baseball is a 19th century pastoral game. Football is a 20th century new world order paramilitary power struggle. Baseball is played in a park...the baseball park. Football is played in a stadium, sometimes called Soldier Field or War Memorial Stadium. The baseball field is...a diamond. The football field is a gridiron. Baseball begins in the spring, the season of new life. Football begins in the fall, when everything is dying. In football, you wear a helmet. In baseball, you wear a cap! Football is concerned with downs. What down is it? Oh, it's the last down. Baseball is concerned with ups. Who's up? Are you up? He's up! I'm up!! In football, you get a penalty. In baseball, you make an error...oops! In football, the specialist comes on to kick something. In baseball, the specialist comes in to relieve somebody. Football has tackling, clipping, spearing, piling on, personal fouls, late hitting, sacking, and unnecessary roughness. Baseball has . . . the sacrifice. Football is played in any kind of weather--rain, snow, sleet, hail, fog, major catastrophe, can't see, don't know if there's a game going on, mud on the field, can't read the uniforms, can't read the yard markers--doesn't matter, the struggle will continue. In baseball, if it rains, we don't go out to play. I can't go out, it's raining out!! Baseball has the s e v e n t h i n n i n g s t r e t c h . Football has the twominutewarning. And, of course, the objectives of the games are also completely different. In football, the object is for the quarterback, sometimes called the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack which may consist of power plays designed to punch holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line. In baseball, the object is to get home . . . safe.
  9. Sir, we are in Texas. We do not know of this baseball thing you refer to. Is it some kind of ointment?
  10. I wouldn't normally do a roll call for a home game but this is on Tuesday night at 6:30 and I know some people can't make it from work in DFW or from around the region My much better half and I will be there.
  11. I can see it now as Harriet sits at the table being qustioned by the Senate Judiciary Committee Kennedy: "Ms. Miers, in 1858 in Ableman vs. Booth, the Supreme Court stated that a habeas corpus, issued by a State judge or court, has no authority within the limits of the sovereignty assigned by the Constitution to the United States. Do you agree or disagree with this stated view?" Miers: "With all due respect Senator Kennedy, GO MEAN GREEN!!!" Kennedy: "Pardon me ma'am." Miers: "Pardon nothing. You heard me. But I'll repeat myself for posterity. GO MEAN GREEN. FIVE IN '05 BABY!!!"

  18. Since I am a domestic/international playboy I solve crimes in exotic locations from time to time and get to keep a portion of the returned stolen goods and you are a spy, maybe we could team up to become a crime fighting/international playboy/hustling/secret agent type duo.

  20. I don't know if it was a nightmare experience but it was pretty embarrasing. I was taking Statistics 2 with Dr Kvanli. There were about 250 people in the class and me and my buddy sat on the back row. I was reading the NT Daily in class and I got into a story and was not paying much attention. I was holding the paper up in front of my face and I faintly heard the words "newspaper" and " hall". I kept reading and then heard the words again. My friend then nudges me with a look of horor on his face and whispering "Put the paper down". I then heard Dr Kvanli say, "If you want to read the paper, go out in the hall". I then lower the paper to see 248 students staring back at me and laughing.
