If it means that much to you to have her attend games, then call the number on the football 101 invitation and ask if husbands are allowed to attend. Don't expect miracles however. There are many women who attend games who don't have any idea about the strategy of the game. They go for reasons other than to appreciate the strategy and/or techniques of the game. Of course, since this is Dickey-ball, how much strategy/technique could there possibly be?...........

I'd rather have Texas State in the SBC.

Yeah, the only QB's that I see on the roster are, Meager, Wilson, Phillips, Prince, and Ieans. I also looked but couldn't see that the jersey #14 had been re-assigned to another player.

Uh, you mean they're finally talking like Hayden Fry? I've been saying the same thing, GG has been saying the same thing, and FFR has been saying the same thing.......... for years. FINALLY! they've started listening to us. I'm still wearing my "I DIDN'T COME HERE TO LOSE" t-shirt this fall. Just in case they start that "we're just happy to be here" back-sliding dialogue.

Diatribe? It started out as a general shot/needle at the overly-rich....both VY and UT....mainly UT. I didn't go on and on about it.....you did. "It isnt fawning. Its admiration for someone who is the best at what they do. Much like Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong, Michael Jordan, blah blah blah." You mean people who are waaaaaay overpaid for what they do? I do agree with one thing however.....blah blah blah. Typical Dallas attitude. Fort Worth. It's in my profile, but I suppose that it's much easier to "assume" than to read. BTW, are there any non-crappy parts of Dallas?.....

* There's a non-crappy part of Houston? ** This is more about the great publicity that UT is getting (as if they need anymore) as a result of this big contract being signed, than a slam at Vince Young. Again, Texas doesn't really need this great "pub". But now that VY has signed this huge contract the implication in all of their recruiting from now on can be "see how successful our athletes become? See what coming to Texas can do for you? And since you brought it up. There are countless numbers of young men (and older men for that matter) who were in the same situation (or worse) as VY, who didn't have a great gift that over-paid them huge amounts of money, and they still turned out to be very productive people. And they did it without any expectation that they would get any publicity and/or their pictures in the paper. Now, it's you who can get over your fawning over VY. He really doesn't need your support.

He quit being "poor" the minute he stepped on the UT campus....and put on his football uniform. Not only is he now "richer", but so is UT from the great publicity, about their great athlete.

http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews...rs/15143297.htm "Young, the No. 3 overall pick out of Texas, agreed to a five-year deal, with an option for a sixth, with $25.7 million guaranteed and an overall value that could reach $58 million with option and roster bonuses and salary." geezzz

I'd be more in favor of Women's Roller Derby team. I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen Round and round, oh round and round The meanest hunk o' woman that anybody ever seen Down in the arena She was five foot six and two fifteen A bleached-blonde mama with a streak of mean She knew how to knuckle and she knew how to scuffle and fight And the roller derby program said That she was built like a 'frigerator with a head Her fans call her "Tuffy" but all her buddies called her "Spike"* Talk about earning the nickname "Mean Green". *Roller Derby Queen, by Jim Croce

Don't we already have women's softball?

I've tasted several "lights" and, so far, I've not found a better one. I recently purchased some of their "Cherry Wheat" ale.....mmmmmmmm I don't know if they would allow you to bring your own beer. I tend to doubt that they will serve any. Someone needs to ask when they RSVP.

Yes, I'll take some. Thanks for asking. Samuel Adams light will do nicely.....

Losing 85 lbs since Feb. doesn't sound right to me either. And 6'2" isn't all that tall for a DE either. I'm with Zeke. I call BS on this story.....as it's printed here.

If you're going to sell them retail at a store, or even at a road-side stand, or on a web-site, then you definitely have to deal with (God help us) CLC. But making something for someone (or having it made) for just the cost of the materials is somewhat different. If licensing was an issue for everything, then DallasGreen would have had to run his NT/SMU t-shirts by CLC.

.....when the whining can really begin!........

The car magnet under the "tailgating supplies" is pretty cool.

My first choice would be the North Texas exes logo. Then "son of worm", and then finally North Texas. Who would eat anything that had "Mean Green" branded on it? Sounds like some sort of fatal gastro-intestinal condition.

.....and just how is that possible.........

Bump

Where is it located? My wife and I love to shop at the World Market. Their beer selection is great. However, they still don't have my favorite "Roswell Alien Amber Ale".

"heavy sigh" Yes, call me archaic, but I much prefer the company of HUMANS......well, most of the time. And when I have conversations, I much prefer that the person that I'm talking to doesn't preface/punctate every one of their sentences with the word "like".....or "Ya know?".

* Harry, this would seem to imply that you believe that we are primarily a commuter school. ** It's my belief/opinion that this was the only expansion that we needed to do in Dallas County. From time to time we talk about and/or mention our raw student population growth at North Texas, and the great potential that it represents. I find it interesting that our average attendance at games is bascally the same now (mid-15K) as it was during the late 70's and mid-80's, when our student population was under 20K.

No offense, but I'd much rather hear about your assessment of your trip to Alaska.
