Timmy Mac, Quoner will be over shortly with a gas can and a blowtorch.

Always standing by and available to answer ticket questions (spoiler alert: the answer is always "buy now" or "buy more") or to offer candy and romantic van rides to your pre-teen daughters. Ninja-face.

I just assumed: 1) Part of it already had 2) We put a Sarlacc in it 3) That's where we've been throwing out-of-favor scholarship players and excess coaches 4) Tony Benford spent most of the summer cackling on his pleasure barge, accompanied by a gold bikini-clad RV chained at the neck

Oh, you don't want to know the methods I have planned to get an honest answer out of him.

Should be easy for you to find the right house. I plan on having his wife and children up in gibbets on the front lawn by the afternoon.

This is easy... SENECA WALLACE. I'll never forget the 5,000 threads about him during what I can only assume was his playing career here. Did we ever settle on who would carry on his proud tradition?

Good for Riley. I'm glad he managed to type out 35-odd characters without vomiting or breaking a finger.

Since I enrolled in the late 90s, we've never been better at football than we appear to be right now. And I've never felt more disengaged and passionless about NT sports. Sat through Dodge, defended and still defend Dickey. Showed up with a smile for games when I knew our performance would be comically inept. Now, we are decent with promise, and I don't know if I'll be able to make it to half the home games. Not so much a hot opinion, as a hot and confusing disposition.

With the helmet change, nobody in the stadium will have any idea why we're chanting "North... Texas" anymore. I just assumed it would naturally change to "Eagle! Logo!" instead.

Worst case, you already have a chicken bucket handy that you can put over their heads. Also, +1 for MG93-98.

Yup. Last year was great, but I never rooted harder for DT to win anything than I will for him to be one of the guys like Ed O'Bannon who winds up bringing this terrible system to a legal end.

Are his lawyers Top 5 in any categories?

No, I don't mean that he was out for the entire season with that injury... I wrote that out poorly. What I meant was that the season where he missed time with that injury was the one we lost at home to UTA because of no replay, and I thought that was the 07 season.

I think that was actually 06/07, because it was the game where Kendrick Davis punched out the glass, and I'm pretty sure he was out with that injury the season we made the tournament under Johnny the first time (2007).

That's because they didn't. 3-2 in favor of UTA from 2007/08 - 2011/12 seasons.

I'm bookmarking this thread. Eventually, diabetes or hypertension will have their due, and I will be back to one-up you with a clever Fat Joe reference. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow... But someday, probably shortly after I create his BIH, P thread... I'll be back here.

Biggie? Never heard of him! But Heavy D is the greatest dead obese hip hop artist of all time!

We're already busy with a composting experiment there. Why not add some fermenting?

It all really starts with a lower-case "g". The rest is just variations on a loose theme.

One more way of illustrating... Most people would probably rank how they want our basketball program to function like this: 1) Win the "right" way 2) Lose the "right" way 3) Win the "wrong" way 4) Lose the "wrong" way If your moral compass is a bit smudged or you have a very flexible definition of "right" and "wrong" in an athletics context, you can probably deal with this: 1) Win the "right" way 2) Win the "wrong" way 3) Lose the "right" way 4) Lose the "wrong" way Whichever way you swing on the matter, we're in the worst situation on either chart now. We torture or break NCAA regulations, we kick (or VERY STRONGLY PUSH) kids out of their education, and we still lose. Badly and frequently.

I didn't make the statement, but expanding from my own perspective... If we want to win "the right way", keeping Benford is laughably tragic. And if we want a guy who makes a priority of athletes graduating, then we probably don't want the coach who turned off, scared off, or ran off: (big inhale) Norris, Overlander, Hardwick, Coleman, Jones, Gaines... And if you want to throw Forrest Robinson (I don't put that on Benford) and potentially a Mystery Player X still to come (that I also wouldn't blame on Benford)... The track record ain't great, especially after just two years. Pile on the recruitment scholarship musical chairs, and I don't think it's accurate to say that Benford's main priority is player retention and graduation. Anything you can say about Brown at SMU (Samarrippas, whoever else), you can say louder and more frequently about Benford here. So, not speaking for Jim here, but... To say anything negative of the sort about Larry Brown as a way of trying to prop up our own coach on a morality pedestal, when Benford seems to treat players and their scholarships like Solo cups at a picnic or wet-naps after a barbecue dinner... It's pretty dumb.
