Having not been a fan of the letters I like this for some reason.

Has anyone seen his coke commercial from when he was with the Steelers? Classic 70s feel good commercial of him trading with a little kid a coke for a game worn jersey. Love it.

Sturm would ask if you're now cheering for the Heat since the Lakers are out.

Here we go again.

Who knows, maybe the event was designed to be an intimate experience for Mean Green Club members as a perk and selling tool for the Mean Green Club.

NO excuses for such a lousy turn out. But no one to blame either. It just proves that there are very few (in relation to other state schools) alumni who care about this program. McCarney can change that. But it's going to take some time. Joe Green's appearance alone should've brought in 200.

I'm still confused as to what this list proves. Are those at the top to be congratulated for having such profound insight? As a bottom dweller of the reputation points standings I'm finding it difficult to value this list.

Look, I wish we had the SOW on the helmet. But a good example of the goal is the Southern Miss helmet. As opposed to seeing a generic eagle logo on the helmet the 'Southern Miss' is recognized immediately.

I know our band is great. I just have a hard time seeing that at the football games. Sure, I may not know this or that about what they're doing but from the eye ball/ear test I can't seem to distinguish them from other collegiate bands I've heard. I would love for them to give off more of a 'wow' factor.

Can't compare our brand recognition to that of the schools mentioned.

I'm sadly referring to many highlights of players on other teams. Ingram had a couple highlight packages that included a few plays from our game against Alabama last season. With the camera primarily focused on him all you really saw from us was our helmets. Seeing that, I understand how having North Texas or UNT on the helmet would be better than the SOW.

Nobody wants New Balance. Not a 12 year old. Not a 52 year old.

There are many instances where our helmets are seen and nothing else. Watch NFL draft coverage. We are usually on highlights (or lowlights) and all that's seen of us is our helmets.

I think I'm coming around on the idea of sticking with UNT and putting that on our helmets. How many kids growing up even know what UCLA, USC, LSU, etc stand for? There isn't another UNT out there. Let's take advantage of that.

Don't recall complaining about anything. But I'm loving your positive attitude lately. Just leave me out of your posts from now on please.

No. Nor should it. Enough with the complaints, lets enjoy it for what it is. Next week can't get here soon enough.

by 'clean look' does he mean 1990's look? his ISU uniforms were terrible.

I don't see why everyone hates the North Texas on the helmet. I'd prefer to have the SOW but I can understand the point of having the name on there. When occasional highlights on national shows are shown of us or against us it's nice to have our name on there. At least right now when no one would recognize the SOW. Now, in 4 years when our basketball team has brought us attention and our football team is in bowl games again we may be ready to roll with the SOW.

Fixed

We've ripped off chants/spirit ideas from other teams/schools before. Can't enjoy it as much when too many refuse to adopt it because it's not original. Now, edit your post and remove the part about it being used in San Antonio and I'm sure everyone will love it.

Thanks Rick. Sometimes we need to smell our own to know how bad it smells.

Count me as one who somehow thought the selection process was 'by hand.' Not sure how so many assumed that incorrectly. What exactly is the purpose of taking a half day off work to do a 'virtual selection?' I agree with JD, I was super excited not only about the selection but also the belief that this was going to be an experience like nothing I've done before. Instead, it's going to be the same process as my buying Tellatubbies on Ice tickets via Ticketmaster.

I like where you're going with this...

I was there
