Favre Retires
Quoner replied to BIG DAWG's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Thank God this got moved before it was too late. -
Down Goes Texas
Quoner replied to UNTflyer's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
See - I think it's a no-brainer in football, but not necessarily hoops. Plus, I am bored. -

Favre Retires
Quoner replied to BIG DAWG's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Well Awasom touched Eli and he has as many rings as Favre, so all is not lost.... Maybe Awasom could end up with another one ring hero who hands out picks like candy such as Kurt Warner or Trent Dilfer... -

Beating A&M in football has been enough for years.... -

Interesting point - would you want to upset a top 10 team if it meant two merciless on-court violations against two other schools? -
Ebay Warning
Quoner replied to emmitt01's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
If this doesn't stay on the football board, then one of us could easily lose..... Wait. Are there really people who still can't recognize a spam attempt? Besides the elderly? -
2008 Nba Champs ?
Quoner replied to NT03's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
OMG - 16-2 vs the West in the regular season! Imagine how unbeatable they'd be if they were 18-0.... sorry, couldn't resist. -
Somewhere the rotting corpse of Richard Jeni weeps...

Could whoever picked the Suns or Magic please explain? -
Should Unt Consider Justin Willis?
Quoner replied to Censored by Laurie's topic in Mean Green Football
I'd like to go on the real record as saying no and that CBL was having some fun with everyone, but, for the sake of more conversation: Willis in 2008! Taste the rainbow! -
Since my "self-imposed" exile from GMG (you know, because it was my idea to not be able to change email addresses without getting 47 error messages and waiting validation items), I have had a lot of time to think. I've thought about my sense of humor and what it does to people. Some of you love it and some of you hate it as it offends your sense of values in decency in ways The Ticket and other outlets apparently just can't. I don't really care or plan to change anything, but I've thought about it. I've thought about sots management degrees - and yes, most people in college athletics have them - and yes, you can get them at several non-UNT schools, including Southern Miss, Texas A&M, Florida State, Ohio, Springfield, Florida and many more! I know because I have one I don't use! Most importantly, I've thought about peace. Peace for all of this board. Peace for athletic fees. Peace with rivals like SMU. They temporarily let me into their little world last week and I was treated as decently as one could expect after putting together a feature mocking one of their greatest basketball players ever who - despite the jokes of his NBA sparedom - was still good in college which is all that matters. I don't ever want to live there, but I was not GHBed or made to clean lawns or any of the usual threats, so that was a sign of progress. I even got in a nice Japanese cutural reference that I will lean onyou guys to explain. I believe it is pronounced boo-cawk-ee. I am not sure, however. I think the world can learn from this. We need to join hands. Our stadium, our administration, our athletic department, even our basketball teams all run on happiness and sunshine - with the occasional candy-coated dreams lube job. We need to not bitch and slap fight and poke and prod and doubt and use logic anymore than we need to continue supporting water torture, Mike Huckabee, Hillary that kid who sucks on American Idol. Please, remove your propaganda in my name within your profiles and signatures and sport a new, stronger, more powerful, non-Green Bay-affiliated Quoner - a Quoner4Unity. Can our new Q4Us overcome - YES THEY CAN! Start whipping them out in New Orleans this weekend and you'll see the world change all the way to a basketball conference tournament win, a NCAA upset, the unseating of the ULL softball dynasty and a football team that averages more points than they allow. Sound impossible - well, not with a Quoner4Unity. Besides, if you don't support unity, the terrorists win. Is that better, H-Town Green. Admins, please pin (can barely type that with a serious face.)

Quoner replied to Censored by Laurie's topic in Mean Green Football
Screw talent - this is a CLASS WAR! I've missed you all. -
Oh sir, sir, sir...I am not making apologies for her. She has worked her way up the ladder and we should all applaud that. All I am saying is let's see one of the people here take the job - or an NT alumnus. Almost everyone in the AD has a master's degree that our school doesn't offer. That will always keep the position stacked against recent NT grads. I would just love to see someone passionate go after that job and thought I'd see if anyone here would do so.

Only GMG can raise funds, market items and plan the future... especially with typing being so difficult. Regardless of what anyone thinks of a certain lady, I'd love to see a few people apply for her old job from this board, if only to realize the amount of work balanced against the much smaller amount of pay. Would one of the heroes of GMG take a sub $40k salary to make the stadium dream a reality?

Stars Major Trade
Quoner replied to filmerj's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
This is not a costly deal. It is a lot of salary tied up into one player, but at the end of the day, it's nothing above what the market is bearing for productive players. This doesn't absolve Hicks past moves for me...but a cup would. -

not to be link-back guy - but here are my thoughts: http://tysports.blogspot.com/2008/02/dalla...oker-table.html -
I heard a girl asking why that woman who works for the university wasn't wearing green or cheering during the game. They asked if she had a new job or something. I couldn't even turn around because I was laughing so hard.

I thought Texas State passed us by two years ago? I remember reading that on this board...

Bad time for that industry as far as the big chains go. Brinker is downsizing too - laid off their whole real estate department.
-
I don't think there are many people who don't believe the stadium will happen - the real frustration is when it happens. It's been three years away for five years now. I think even most of the no voters believe we will get it but have just learned to filter out the short term positive signs. Am I crazy or am I just posting more "soft porn?"

Zach Thomas To Sign With Cowboys
Quoner replied to SUMG's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Roy Williams and DeAngelo Hall in the same defensive backfield? If you play fantasy football, start the other teams tight end and second receiver and never lose again!
