I had a really great time last year doing the same thing in Athens sitting with my brother-in-law Georgia alum. Standing up and yelling when Brelan returned that kick for a touchdown and watching everyone stare at me will always be an awesome memory for me. More on topic, I will be there +1 in Austin--sticking to the green section this time, though.

The high in Denton on 9/6/2013 was 99. The average high for 9/6 is 89. Here's hoping for a high of 79 on 9/6/2014 to balance out the average!

I wonder how many people would have died had it been a gun instead of a knife.

Well, that explains it all. Only one of his ears was coaching.

So, the USA has to keep Justin Bieber now? Damn you Jamie Benn.

Hmmm, kind of a hazy/sandy brown here.

So, it wasn't that the checks stopped and caused them to leave, it is that they violated school policy by stopping to accept them?

No, I was up in the rafters, but I did capture a somewhat amusing moment involving them. This group of girls wanted their picture taken with Romo, so one of them handed her phone to Jason Garrett and apparently asked him to take their picture. I was like, you seriously asked the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys to take a group photo OF--not WITH--you. Sorry for the poor photo quality (but I was about 3/4 of a mile away).

Is that a requirement for the job?

I spent last night watching SMU blast past Temple at Moody. Not once did I clap during the game (can't bring myself to support SMU in anything), but it was still more fun than the beat down going to games in Denton has become. I did, however, keep my ESPN app open to keep an eye on the NT/Rice score. I guess I just can't force myself to not still be interested, but enough already. It is so beyond time to make the change.

Dewey Defeats Truman!

I think a lot of what would weigh on my mind if I were deciding on the sentence would be that the person killed also made a conscious decision to place himself in danger by getting into that car. If it were an innocent bystander, I'm sure I would feel differently. Not that one life is more valuable than the other, but when assessing the sentence, whether it should be a part of the equation or not, it would factor in mine. Either way, the wrongful act is not the result--killing someone or simply pulling home safely in the driveway--it is the decision of driving while intoxicated in the first place. That is the behavior that has to be remedied. People getting off too easily when they don't happen to kill someone is as big of a part of the problem as anything.

Sometimes you just have to go all in.

^ Maybe you could run down to Dallas City Hall and grab one off the table. From the picture in this link, it appears everyone has them just sitting on the table. http://dallasmorningviewsblog.dallasnews.com/files/2014/01/Dallas-councila-rgues-over-DFW-board-appointment.jpg

And then he removed the post. Perhaps he is updating his post to correct the typo in it.

Councilman Adam Medrano just posted numerous pictures to his Facebook page with this: https://www.facebook.com/VoteAdamMedrano This was the city council member with whom I had corresponded about the Omni and other lights.

For a refresher and perspective on how far things have come in such a short amount of time: ESPN Bottom 10 from September 21, 2011 http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/page/bottom10110921/slogans-live-lose-bottom-10

If you look right now at the online DMN and go to Sports > Colleges > North Texas Mean Green, the first thing that shows up is the "Best in Texas" poll from September 29th. Every other school in that section has recent entries. I get that A.H. Belo Corp. defers most of its UNT coverage to the DRC, but really? Why the heck do they even have a listing for UNT if nothing is updated. If I didn't know anything about UNT and happend to be browsing the sports section online, I would have absolutely no clue about any current UNT sports.

Glad to know you took a breath between 5:18 and 5:21

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, so sorry if I missed it, but I did notice a banner ad for season tickets on meangreensports.com today. It says "Just the Beginning. Click for 2014 Season Tickets."
