  1. Just curious, but what national stores are you talking about?
  2. The North Texas Exes have a chrome sticker that they sell on their web-site. Maybe they could contact the same company that does their stickers, and see about having the chrome trailer hitch design produced. Here's their product. http://www.goemerchant1.com/index.cgi?Page...dedDepts=101771
  3. Well, here's an idea. If there is a fund/foundation set-up for the stadium, then why doesn't the University ask Harry if they can post a banner/link to it on gmg.com? Do they have a banner/link for it on the University's athletic web-site? Clearly some of the most avid supporters of a new stadium are here on this board. And they could spread the word (and the link) to others who might be interested, but who don't frequent the board as much.
  4. I dream about having the loyal fan base that they have. The budget takes care of itself after that.
  5. I don't know how long it was in the planning stage, and I don't know how long it took to build, but it opened in 52. The first game was 9/27/52 against North Dakota.....which we won 55-0. I've heard many people from that era say that North Texas was known for it's track teams as much (if not more) as it's football teams. The stadium was obviously built to accomodate the site lines for track as much as football.
  6. Hmmmm, I forgot how we often play fast and loose with that word..........
  7. Heh - things haven't changed much since I arrived in Denton in 1986! Boise realized a gem in Boise St. - not sure why Dentonites have never realized the gem in their backyard... ←
  8. This reminds me that I need to find a "I DIDN'T COME HERE TO LOSE" t-shirt........ in green if possible.
  9. I too want to see a new stadium. But when I go into Fouts now, I just remember that tape that I had of the UNT/UTA game at the end of 1985 season. When I looked at the tape a couple of years ago, I was shocked at what a dump Fouts was back then. It was the next season (1986) that the first artificial turf was installed.
  10. In this case, I'm glad to be of service.
  11. Before we get all tingly about something that just about every other D-1 fan/alumni takes for granted, let's see what else they do to promote North Texas football this fall before we declare them the best marketing dept in all of College football.
  12. tequila is a bit expensive to use as a marinade. The beer is another story.
  13. ....and right after that they must have great guacamole! My favorite Uncle out on Camp Bowie has the best.
  14. With respect, they slipped a looooonnng time ago. They are now at the bottom of where ever that "slippery slope" takes you. I left out one.....Esperanza's (owned by Joe T's and on Main st. just around the corner from Joe T's) They have great food and you can buy authenic Mexican pastries at their location.
  15. I guess Reggie Bush must have a fantastic 40 time, because at 6' X200 lbs he isn't much bigger than Cobbs (5'8" X 205). Bush was also injured during his college career. And so was the RB from Memphis.
  16. Good luck on getting anyone to talk to you.
  17. Actually the best Fajita's in the metroplex are at "SilverEagles". After I cooked my first batch ever, my wife never ordered them again from a Mexican restaurant. I make Chicken and Pork only. Best Mexican food in Tarrant Co. Uncle Julio's El Paseo (Jacksboro Hwy) Mexican Inn on Camp Bowie and/or 8th Ave. El Asadero (North Main) 'The Original" on Camp Bowie Upscale, The Blue Mesa Grill Very upscale, Lanny's Alta Cocina
  18. ...kind of like Joe T. Garcia's in Fort Worth.
  19. As my family used to say "Bless your heart". There is hardly anything worse than spending money on a vacation and having it turn out the way that you just described.
  20. The 63 & 64 championships were courtesy of Chuck Curtis. Who won a state championship the year before at Jacksboro. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that any other coach has done this.
  21. I'll take a slower tuff over injuries any day. If it's slower for us, then it's slower for our opponents.
  22. Depending on who you are, you might get a civil answer from Mandy......again, depending on who you are.
  23. You mean when Dickey was hired? I have no earthly idea who that (or they) might have been since I had suspended my involvement with athletics at that time (the Helwig era).
  24. The renewal package hasn't been mailed out yet. At least I haven't seen one.
