  1. Can they bring Hawaii with it?
  2. Ah. Things become a little more clear. Thanks.
  3. Good god, man, did somebody from UNT once go to the NCAA headquarters and piss in the cornflakes or something? Seriously. Can we ever catch a break? Every other team -- Say good things, say good things, say good things. UNT -- "North Texas, which was on the losing end of 41-17 and 69-31 games on the road against FAU, went undefeated at home in 2017."
  4. Came here to say this. I got stuck behind somebody fumbling through a change purse trying to purchase a pass for cash, and I don't even know if the attendant person had change. I ended up just driving around them and more or less ignoring the attendant. Then again, since the point of entry is about three feet wide, how would they have a cash lane and a pass lane? A word they like to use in Organizational Behavior in UNT's MBA program is "Valence." That is perceived value. My blue parking lot pass has lost some of its "valence." Then again, again, back in 2015 when I could've done 80mph donuts in the blue lot ten minutes before kickoff with no fear of hitting another vehicle, who'd've thunk we'd ever be discussing this issue?
  5. The way this map works, if we lose to Arkansas, we pretty much get erased from the map for the rest of the year. It's been going on on reddit for a few seasons now, and it takes some getting used to.
  6. This clearly is an issue of simply raising the student athletic fee.
  7. TCU favored by 22 right now. Lulz. I'll give those points!
  8. I'm assuming when OP said Division 1 football that he meant FBS.
  9. I hope to all things holy that we had some recruits there on Saturday who are also considering SMU. I hope to god those recruits also go to an SMU game.
  10. Oh, SB Nation. You Crazy Kids. Link

  11. Doesn't matter. When they graduate and go to work for daddy, they'll have verbal valets for that.
  12. I believe that was a direct quote in her texts, yes. Edit: Perhaps I should add this is her first year having a car, and she's just learned that gas costs money.
  13. My head sees where you're coming from on that. My heart says F'em. I hope they lose every game by forty points minimum.
  14. I don't know who downvoted this. It should be our one of our many goals each and every year to get the SMU coach run out of town.
  15. That 51-yard kick, I felt myself doing the old man bowling shuffle, willing the damn thing to make the distance. It didn't have the distance authority of Trevor Moore's kicks, but dammit, the points still counted.
  16. I noticed in the membership guide that my donor classification has dropped a category while giving the same amount of money. Wren is out for blood -- I mean cash, and he seems to be getting it. I've got one more year of stadium gifts, then my MGC contribution will go up slightly, but I'll be done with the monthly payments. I am still somewhat concerned that the MGC contributions will go up enough to price me out of my seats at some point in the not too far off future. Fortunately, if I mentally keep the stadium payment in my mentality, I think I've got a bit of wiggle room before things get too hairy.
  17. My daughter texted me that she stayed for a bit of the wrestling. Let's just say that good ole' wrestling action doesn't translate to the younger generation. Having no knowledge or context of the whole spectacle, she was mightily taken aback by it. She ruh-heally didn't like some of the caricatures. I told her she has to imagine a time of three television stations and no internet, then I kinda laughed at her 21st century sensitivities.
  18. I just tried it right now, Monday morning, and it's all still there. Maybe my link is tied to my computer or something. Wish I could help further. The Stadium search feature for videos is lacking at best.
  19. Here ya go. Man, you'd think Stadium would make their videos searchable or something. Had to go back through my posts here to find the damn link!
  20. I asked my daughter this weekend why she didn't go out for the Green Brigade. Hailing from the Lewisville HS marching band, one of the most BORING, but technically sound marching bands in the land, she responded that the Green Brigade doesn't take their technique seriously enough. Ouch, baby. Ouch.
  21. So I'm really badly color blind. When you put certain combinations of colors next to each other, they...change. I look at the center of the field, I see green. I look at the end zone, I see green. I look at the end zone abutting up to the field, the field turns...get this...orange! This is why I don't need hallucinogenic drugs.
  22. Is there a link for this somewhere?
  23. There was a point at some time during the game when my buddy and I looked across the club seating, and it was nearly completely full. The culture up there that has beaten me into submission is that you get the evil eye if you cheer above 10 decibels. I enjoyed the espresso machine and the brewed iced tea up there. Nice additional little touches. Not sure, but I think they brought the concession prices down a bit too.
  24. I thought the ref mic wasn't working again. Then I re-watched the game online, and realized that I couldn't hear him because the crowd was so damn loud. Greatness!
  25. I came to tailgate. Ate balls. It's not a UNT game without them.
