They've got a Shoney's...

I had always heard that the third talon was removed because the students and faculty in the late 60s and 70s felt a 3-toed claw was too violent and warlike.

It was basically the first Trojan Horse initiative in a long-range plan. Operation Tina is currently about 55% complete, with Phase Podcast nearly finished and Phase Moderator still cloaked under shadowy goals and motives. I don't want to spoil the year 2017 for anyone... But let's just say it involves an explosive encounter where Rick V and Lane Rawlins visit a mute and immobile Harry in the hospital. Shortly thereafter, Quoner and I shake hands atop the UNT parking garage, having successfully seized control of the offices of President and Athletics Director. Little will Quoner know how thoroughly I've compromised my morals to bring about the endgame...

In an blog post about CONFERENCE REALIGNMENT, Vito mentions that we have very little Metroplex relevance.... BECAUSE WE PLAY UNKNOWN TEAMS FROM A DISRESPECTED CONFERENCE. READING COMPREHENSION, PEOPLE. READING COMPREHENSION. This reminds me of the morons who stumble across old TY Sports articles (most of them TITLED as "FALSE ALLEGATIONS"!!!!!!!) and flip out like maniacs over the content. READ. REVIEW. COMPREHEND. RE-READ. PROCESS. SLEEP ON IT. THEN react.

Also... The sentence CONTINUES by identifying the main reason we're "irrelevant" to Dallas sports fans is the unknown teams we play from Arkansas, Tennessee, and Florida.

According to the Dallas area. Hell, having had a front row seat on Saturday night... We're pretty much irrelevant in the DENTON area.

All I have to say about Royce Hill is that I'm glad someone finally told him this isn't soccer, and he's allowed to use his hands and arms in defensing passes. Every home game, on 3rd downs or whenever else the guys on the sideline turn around and start waving their arms at us... All I think is "I wish one of you would teach that move to the secondary".

32 days!

This is all shaping up for an epic Jon Daniels vs. Doug Melvin showdown!

Anyone who says that has never been there. It's an AMAZING stadium, inside and out.

Mini packs are a gateway drug to full season tickets. Anyone that makes a first step towards basketball tickets through a mini-pack is super fantastic in my book. It doesn't take much exposure to this program to get a North Texas fan hooked.

Check that schedule again. 18th and 20th against Jackson State and Grambling. He'll have 2 games under his belt before LSU comes to the pit.

I actually had the pamphlet for the mini-packs until pretty recently... I also left one at Harry's office last year that may still be floating around? Wish I remembered... Sorry.

Strong but unconfirmed rumors that North Texas has offered a scholarship.

Yes, thanks... I need to update the Recruiting forum thread. Thanks for the reminder. Also- now that the question is answered, I'm going to merge this thread with the Pye recruiting thread.

39 days. (37 to the exhibition!)

Last year was the only time in Sun Belt history (other than 2005, before the league played 8 conference games and also a year where 3 teams tied and 3/4ths of the league was 3-4 in conference play or better) that a 2 loss team has even managed to tie for the conference title. 10 years of football, and 2 losses in conference has historically proven that your title hopes are finished.

Ohhhhhh boy... 3, 2, 1...

If we beat Tulsa Saturday then Tony Romo doesn't suck. If we lose to Tulsa Saturday then we better fire Johnny Jones before the bus gets back from Tulsa.

I expect this sort of thing from Skipper... Now Lonnie, too??

Just don't spill anything or kick the back of our seats.

I just held him down. AAUNT did all the stabbing. Welcome back, Cerebus.

He's a fickle, fickle tease.

I've heard that they're unpleasant to wear on court... I don't care if the guys ever actually wear them in games. I like the color and the design, and I bought a green one for my brother back in 2008. If I'd known they were going to disappear, I'd have gone ahead and bought one for myself, too.
