Yes. This is exactly what we need our elected leaders to focus on. It's critical.

I can speak to this a little bit--the main issue was definitely lack of participation by students/groups. And the main complaint about "sustainability" and "waste" came from student groups also. There's a common thread in this, I'm afraid.

I kind of like the helmet. Grudgingly.

That's hilarious...

@NorthTexasWeLove Check your PM. How was the beer? You mentioned you got it ok.

Remember the above quote from Arkstfan when this all shakes out. IMO, these are the reasons TCU got into the Big 12. Like an old pastor said at the offering plate: "If you wanna go up, you gotta pay up."

Maybe he's offered a different location for the dye job.

I agree. I thought he looked confident and was able to get the ball where he wanted it. Stood in and made throws. Pretty encouraging for sure. It's all about the QB offensively.

I listed this in the Tickets For Sale forum, but just in case some don't see it...

If you're familiar with Shark Tank, Gronk, and the Southlake-based company Iceshaker, you may have seen their product. They don't make a Mean Green version (yet), but I have one of the two that were issued as promos. I don't need it, so I'm putting it up for grabs here. $35 plus shipping, or can meet in Denton. PM me if you're interested.

PM sent.

I can't find any more Mean Green versions online, but Amazon carries the brand. Be glad to sell this one to somebody. PM me if anyone's interested.

I found this at a thrift store.

No, really. Mean Green Jenga.

Shout out to Broken Bow and Hochatown. That's a beautiful area. Really enjoy visiting that part of OK.

Males competing against females in competitions reserved for females. This bout was alleged to be between two women. If so, then Carini got her ass kicked. I'm talking about the overarching issue of allowing born males to compete against born females. It's a fairness issue, and more importantly a safety issue, as far as I'm concerned. I'll take the IOC's word that both are female in this case. The East German women were back in the 60's and 70's too. But it's something that women are going to have to address as a group, if they want it to change, in my opinion. Otherwise, they need to shut up and box/sprint/throw, because no "governing body" is going to act on their behalf unless there's serious injury or worse. And maybe not even then.

Nah. I said my piece. I'm not ok with it. Some are. Women will have to stop it.

It'll probably take a female getting maimed or put into a coma, or worse. I hope not. But again, women will have to take the lead in making it stop.

Gotcha.

You must have me confused with someone else.

Women are the ones who will have to put a stop to this absurdity.

Not disagreeing with you.

I think that deal was for seats in the lower bowl.

Appreciate the effort, but it's not worth it.
