  1. From the comments: My guess is it took that long for Vito to find a parking spot.
  2. I don't know that I agree this Idaho Potato Bowl is so famous. I've never heard of it.
  3. Help me out here. I think I read what you just said correctly, but to make it clear for my feeble mind. Five years: 1) 2012-2013 2) 2013-2014 3) 2014-2015 4) 2015-2016 5) 2016-2017 So next season is his last on his contract, right?
  4. I saw this kid play against Lewisville this year. His highlight reel from that game is only nine seconds long. Mostly because this kid Dontae McGee was running right through him all night. Dontae McGee He's a senior, but I'm not savvy enough on the recruiting front to know if he's got any offers anywhere.
  5. This makes the area on 35E just north of the Lewisville Lake Bridge lots of fun. You've got Lake Dallas, Corinth, Hickory Creek, and State Troopers all monitoring about a four-mile stretch of road. Before construction began, I became very well acquainted with the bend they'd park behind waiting for speeders. Even if taking the greatest of care to follow all traffic laws, it's one of the most nerve wracking stretches of road for me to drive on.
  6. Overall, it really is good for them. I hope that artist rendering for football is just super preliminary and they do something better with it. Gonna be tough since Turner Field is structurally built for baseball.
  7. However you want to count the wins, not counting last night's loss, Sagarin has us at #293, and real time RPI has us at #305. When those get updated later today, we will drop even further. There are 351 schools listed in D1. How many years is Benford's contract? Was it five? Benford firing watch notwithstanding, is he technically signed through next season?
  8. We've really got a love affair with playing Incarnate Word as of late, don't we?
  9. Georgia State was the winning bid to purchase Turner Field and surrounding area. They're going to convert Turner Field to a football stadium, build a baseball stadium on the site of the old Fulton County Stadium, and put student housing and whatnot in. Here's a side-by-side present day plus artist rendering. I gotta say that if the football stadium is going to look anything like this picture, color me not very impressed.
  10. 105 points? In forty minutes? Good god.
  11. Hope WKY wins. We need ranked teams in our conference.
  12. So, when does this devolve into everybody calling everybody a bunch of idiots? I'd kinda like to see that.
  13. Earl Brown, Auburn head coach from 1948-1950. 3-22-4 for a .120 winning percentages (ties discounted). Check and mate hater!
  14. Line is 21 1/2 points. I'm not betting the money line on this one.
  15. Holy crap! I've never heard that before! What's the story behind it? Was the guy having a stroke on stage or something?
  16. A friend who saw it before me told me to go in with the mindset that at its heart, it's a kid's movie. Don't go in expecting Lawrence of Arabia. So with proper mindset in place, I went, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. It was just a fun movie. Now if I were one of the unique individuals that reads Wookieepedia every night before going to bed, I might be disappointed, but I'm not one of those unique individuals.
  17. Just now I got an email soliciting season ticket renewal for the 2016 season. Thing is, it doesn't make renewal of MY seats available. It's selling me seats in the lower bowl. Not worried about it or anything, but it does seem odd that the system wouldn't recognize that I've got static seats every year.
  18. We did kinda get screwed on that, but then again, we won the game. If they'd thrown some P5 at us, who knows what the outcome would've been. I enjoyed watching us walk away with a sound victory.
  19. I'll let this go when we stop dredging up threads about what a GREAT coaching regime Dodge was if only and but only excuses keep popping up. I'll acknowledge that he's what we could get with the budget under Gertchin, but I'll never acknowledge that he was some football mastermind hindered by some intangibles but it is what it is. He is not a college coach. Period. He was arrogant and unyielding on that.
  20. .407 vs .139. 2.92 times better results = ~ three times pay
  21. Compared to Dodge's stellar success with Dodge's recruits?
  22. Would that I could go father another child right about now.
  23. I still get email updates from Baylor and TCU after attending baseball games at each several years ago.
  24. Austin Westlake missed the game winning field goal to close out the fourth quarter, then gave up the game winning touchdown in 2OT. story
  25. It seems like I've read somewhere that jurisdiction wise, University police are some of the most powerful in Texas.
