  1. Man, how do these guys think they can actually lie and get away with it??????? Didn't their mothers teach them any better????? Pro baseball is a MESS! But, I agree, as you can tell from some of the comments regarding baseball on this site...fans will be fans, they will defend "their" favorite sport no mnatter what, and this will pass.... As for Congress...get on to MUCH BIGGER and more important fans....to the fans..."Play Ball"...it's spring training and even the Rangers have a chance!
  2. Not much of a hockey fan, but from what I can tell...this is a good trade for the Stars. They need the help to "push" for the Cup this year. I do not want anyone saying that Hicks will not "step up" with the $$$$$ to make a deal. This is a costly deal, so it needs to work for the Stars. I hate to lose Smith, but..."ya gotta win NOW, Baby"....as they say in pro sports.....GO STARS! Dallas needs a "winner" on the professional sports scene...I mean a Championship winner, not just a "winner" in terms of wins and loses! Now, my favorite...FC Dallas...same thing....win when it counts...the psot season in 2008!
  3. Unfortunately, I believe I heard that Evan was no longer with the team.
  4. BUMP...DO NOT FORGET TO VOTE FOR SCRAPPY!
  5. GO POKES! Maybe Sean can keep his job...rumors are flying in OKIE State land these days about Sean Sutton.....
  6. 4-5 years IS a VERY long time when it comes to a winning softball program at UNT! UNT is definitely on the "up-swing" when it comes to athletics...way to go ladies...keep it going!
  7. Just voted again...keep 'em going...GO SCRAPPY!!!!
  8. NOW I have a GREAT reason to watch the Packers play and to pull for them to win...when they are not playing Dallas, that is...GO JQ! Super to see this...good for JQ and god for the MEAN GREEN!
  9. ENOUGH TO MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD...UGH!
  10. Way to go Ladies! Nice win...keep up the good job...I think the season has a real shot at being one of the best in a very long time...great to see wins over the Big XII...even if I do have a degree from Oklahoma State too! GO MEAN GREEN!
  11. I just voted for Scrappy again...seems to be working fine at the moment. I sure wish they would give us a "tally" of the count so we could see who is winning...do you think it's rigged from the beginning? I think I "smell hanging chad" in the mascot voting. Where are the poll monitors when you need them???? VOTE FOR SCRAPPY!!!! VOTE EVERY DAY...GET YOUR FRIENDS TO VOTE......SCRAPPY FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!
  12. BUMP Look Mom, see what I learned on the GOMEANGREEN Board!
  13. You just have to believe! Come on folks...here we go with the glass half-full vs half-empty thing again. I choose to believe the positive here...YES, we will have the NEW stadium by 2011. I will imagine that we will see some real "movement" later this year...announcements regarding design work sooner than later. I have no "official" knowledge what so ever...but, I'll bet more than 10% of the $$$$ is lined up...yes, we will have a corporate sponsor unless some big private donor shows up on a "whaite horse" with buckets of cash...can you spell Boone Pickens???? Come on....B-E-L-I-E-V-E!!!!! It is so much more enjoyable than being upset and frustrated all the time. Hey, UNT is moving forward after years of "nothing"...like the guy or not...take a look back over the last few years and see what RV has said he was going to attempt to do regarding athletic facilities and what has, in fact, come to pass....if you have been around UNT as long as I have...since 1965...then you KNOW the progress that has been made in the last few years facility-wise under RV. I give him lots of credit for saying it and then DOING IT! I recall some early mmetings when RV first came to UNT and when the talk came up about facilities....the first things he mentioned he "had" to do, had nothing to do with a new stadium...as best as I recall. Have you seen the athletic facilities...alll of them...lately? Folks....it will happen and it will happen sooner than later...I just believe that to be true...you too can choose to believe it or...you can continue to gripe about it. All that gripping and negativity sure has gotten the stadium built sooner! Maybe my optimism hasn't gotten it built any faster either, but I sure feel alot better about it all! O.K. ... bring out the "boo birds"... I hear you warming up out there already!
  14. DON'T FORGET TO VOTE FOR SCRAPPY TODAY!
  15. I see two jobs posted...one is the Mean Green Club Coordinator? Is this a new position to work with mandy or is she leaving the position? Just wondering... the other is an Assoc. Ath. Director for Development...that is probably Kevinn Fralicks previous position, right? I ca go with a UNT grad getting these spots, but I can also see bringing in someone from the "outside" without any "pre-conceived" notions of what is and what is not good at UNT. Maybe some new ideas could flow and develop...that is not to say that "new ideas" could not germinate from a UNT grad just as easily...so, my vote goes to the best person we can find for the position...and let's hope that person is a UNT grad!
  16. Hope so...I hope your "crystal ball" is a good one!
  17. Keep voting...let's make sure we do all we can to help Scrappy win. What great PR for UNT that would be...SUPER! GO SCRAPPY!
  18. Well, good luck to the Mavs! Interesting trade...am I the only one who thinks Dallas is "mortgaging its future" for the sake of a run this year? Kidd is a great guard, but at 35 I wonder how much is left in the tank? Did the Mavs give up more than they received? Time will tell...if the Mavs win it all this year...it will all be seen as a great move by Mr. Cuban...if not, well...we'll see. It will be interesting to see how fast Kidd works into the flow at Dallas...my guess, pretty fast!
  19. jaycutler....what's your point? I do not see the connection between supporting our mascot and trying to get some good PR for the University and "worrying about winning more then two football games". Do you mean before we worry about them getting all the details and history about Scrppy wrong on the web-sight? If so, I tend to agree with you....but, it's like the old adage..."I don't care what you call me as long as you call me for dinner!". UNT and Scrappy could be in for some great PR with this...so, let's vote as often as they will let us...I am sure other university groups will be doing the same...we just need to "out vote 'em"! GO SCRAPPY...SCRAPPY FOR PRESIDENT! Hey, that might, in fact, be a decent idea considering the bunch running this time around on both sides!
  20. Come on EVERYONE...vote for Scrappy and VOTE OFTEN...if the site allows for multiple voting...all fair in love and mascot boosting! Go Scrappy!!!!!!
  21. Great news about the tournament results...interesting that nothing was in the paper about the tournament...did not see it in the Dallas Morning News nor the Denton Record-Chronicle. What's up with that? I looked for the soccer schedule at the Exes Mixer this last saturday in Lewisville at TJ Hartford's...the athletic dept. had the men's and women's golf teams and softball schedules out...but no soccer. Too bad. I, too, would like to see the schedule posted on the Athletic site. keep your fingers crossed...may happen yet! GO UNT SOCCER! Well done this weekend...Baylor has been a power in the local soccer ranks...it will help UNT to have won this game...even if it is early in the season....GO LADIES!
  22. OOPS...sorry for all the spelling errors and typos in the last post! I need "spell check"! My fingers just get going and seem to punch what keys on the board they want to and not waht I want then to punch...sorry!
  23. Some of you guys are really amazing...even when we get great news from the Athletic Director and Head football coach, you still see the glass as half-empty. Amazing....I have been around the University since 1965, so I am no "rookie" when it comes to promises, changes, good things and disapointments with UNT. But, folks....things are really positive these days around the University, the Athletic Dept., the Exes, etc. The only place I read and see so much negativity is on this site! Come on...let's be a bit more positive and get behind the programs by giving to the Mean Green Club, joing the Exes, buying season tickets and just being a part of the Mean Green nation. Positive thoughts and ideas ARE appreciated on this site too. If you have a "cahllenge" with the programs in academics or athletics...why don't you offer a real solution...don't just gripe! And, a "real solution" is something that could actually happen...it does not include such statements as "so just build the stadium", fire this coach or that coach, etc. It does include statements as "as soon as the athletic dept. announces ways for the Mean Green nation to help build the stadium...count me in for $100/$500/$1000, etc. Or, how about a GOMEANGREEN web site "challenge" like, "lets see if we can't gather enough donations to endow a scholarship for the football program, the basketball program, women's soccer, etc., etc. Endowed scholarships are still $10,000 at UNT, but will be going up soon. Negativity doesn't get you anything but an ulcer and heartburn...try the positive approach...it works soooooo muchg better, I know...I had to learn the hard way! GO MEAN GREEN!
  24. Great road win for the Cowboys. I do think OSU is better than they have shown this year...but, question...is Sean Sutton the "grupmiest" coach in the country or what? His dad could get away with it, but Sean, litten up a little...you look like a "grumpy old man". Even Pat Knight has lightened up the Tech program...Sean...win something before you turn into the "grumpiest coah in the USof A!!!
