Man...thats just plain wrong...I already put that picture up as the background for my computer...F'n mean, man.

So does this mean we won't be having our home and home with Belhaven? Damn.

The FUPA / Flapjack shirt is the one I sold off my back at the Cincy game...it essentially payed for Superdome beers and overly-vegetabled Bloody Marys...yet I still have both the Cincy and the Memphis shirts...I think one might be Cross's. Ironically enough...both are a different shade of green...neither of which is our current color...couldn't even get it right 5 years ago

In the immortal words of Joe Namath...I wanna kiss you.

You might be a Mean Green Fan if... -you've discussed a trip to New Orleans after fall finals even if the Mean Green doesn't go to the N.O. Bowl because it just wouldn't feel right not to go. -you are still haunted by the ghost of Anthony Winchester -you consider Jonesboro, AR, Tulsa, OK and Ruston, LA as "good weekend vacation destinations" -two words: sock puppetts -you've found positives after the first game every year...no matter the score -a place exists where people say you love al-Quada, Josef Stalin and I'm sure Hitler will be next...yet you go to this place religously everyday, hoping to put in your two sense on the merit of pride stickers -you're in love with Norah Jones -you'll yell "catch the ball, Justin" for 8 total years at the Pit -you've made vulgar shirts for N.O...and then sold one of those shirts for $50 at the game...and yet somehow still have everyone of the shirts made -you've toasted "here's to taming pussy" with Memphis fans

The best thing about college football is how much every regular season game means. Week 2 last year...if UT comes back to beat Ohio State, Florida kicks someone elses ass in the Nat'l Championship game. If you want to win the Nat'l Championship you have to be in playoff mode from Game 1...college football essentially has a 13 week playoff as it stands now...you add a playoff system at the end of the year and it becomes just like the NFL...you're disappointed by a loss, but it doesn't effectivly end your season. what needs to be ammended is pre-season rankings...nobody ought to be ranked until atleast half-way through the season, I'm not just talking BCS rankings...I mean any ranking. As for the plus-1 game...this is the first I heard of it...who would've played last year? Florida and USC or Florida and Boise St.? Maybe if there is a clear cut #1 you pit those vying for #2...USC vs. Boise...but who would really travel and pay good money or invest 4 hours of their time to say they finished second? The system we currently have has definite flaws, but a playoff system ruins college football.

I must've been drunk...yeah...that seems like a logical explination

Named "The Best Place in America to Watch College Basketball" by Sports Illustrated in 1997, Texas Hall is the home to UTA's men's and women's basketball and volleyball teams. Possibly the most unique setting for intercollegiate events in the nation, the Mavericks¹ home court seats 4,200 and allows fans two areas of seating that allow for two radically different ways to watch the game. One side of the court gives the UTA faithful the opportunity to sit in plush, theater-style seating while watching the action on the elevated floor. This means that fans will never have to yell, "Down in front!" since the action is taking place a few feet higher then them. Imagine rock concert meets run-n-gun offense. The other side of the court is for the fan who wants to be close up to the event. With seats just a few feet from the court, fans in the bleacher area are right on top of the action. Texas Hall is also equipped with one of the best sound and lighting systems around, contributing to an atmosphere that makes "Ball at the Hall" one of the most exciting and unique experiences for fans, student-athletes, coaches and everyone else involved. I've never had the chance to watch or play here...and I'm kinda upset that I probably won't...it seems like a unique watching experience.

I thought I remember that the New Orleans bowl was the first and only time we've played Cincinati and Colorado St.

Agreed...but I have a hard time believing that the Big 10 is considering expanding simply for the sake of expanding, or reaching a balance schedule with 12 schools. The only adventagous move for the Big 10 would be Notre Dame...100% NBC money; 100% BCS Bowl Game money vs. 1/12 Big 10 network money; 1/12 of six or seven bowl games, one or two BCS games...hmmmm...I think I'll stick with option one and just go ahead with the ND master plan, also known as the Midas Plan of making all the buildings on campus lined with solid gold.

Throwing mechanics mean very little in the college game. Danny Weurful (sp?) shot-putted the ball on his way to winning a Heisman in a system that threw the ball a whole lot more than we will. Now...I am not privy to all the insider practice information like Dodge2007...but from what I saw last season and in the spring game, Danny Meager doesn't throw the ball that much better than Woody...and he certainly doesn't add the intangibles that WW brings with his athleticism. Last years QB problems were the result of never naming a QB and whoever was on the field was constantly looking over his shoulder...a coach needs to allow his QB to make a mistake or two and learn from them...DD stunted the growth of both DM and WW. IMHO, there are 2 things that keep WW from playing Qb this season...his game management, too many delay of games...even in the spring game I believe he had 2...the other is an 18 year old from San Antonio with mafia connections.

I disagree. Eagle Point and Liberty Christian lands were acquired almost exclusivly for athletics...and no matter how bad, football is almost always going to be the most profitable sport. I think construction of the new athletic center cements the schools commitment. Winning may influence only the way the school prioritizes the way in which they go after the Master Plan. A football stadium will come...winning now may mean its not the last piece of the Master Plan to be completed. Our reverse Field of Dreams situation is frusterating and may just require some patience

It was...the student referendum vote is essentially for the Board of Regents to guage the opinion of the student body...its not a binding agreement. I think more students would be on board with tuition increases if the Master Plan was better publicized...and they had a visual representation as to where their additional fees were going.

Barring an almost complete revamping of almost every conference (possibly excluding the SEC and PAC-10) the only school the Big 10 would ever had would be Notre Dame, and ND would be insane to start sharing BCS bowl revenue with the conference.

Wow...it would appear the car dealership simply stole the idea from the Oklahoma government: Ghost Employees - Oklahoma State Department of Health First made news in May 2000 from a federal investigation into corruption at the department A Multi-County Grand Jury investigating the scandal issued 302 subpoenas for witnesses a nd evidence, heard from 150 witnesses, examined 1242 exhibits and issued 12 indictments involving 15 individuals and 159 separate criminal counts. The Grand Jury also found cases of shames, involving jobs were no real worked expected or required. These were mostly where current and former members of the Oklahoma Legislature had used their influence to secure employment at the health department for family members, friends and associates, often without regard to the qualifications of those hired. but I gotta admit they're a clever bunch. Bob Stoops... ...sleeps with a life size pillow in the shape of Josh Heupel which he spoons with everynight in bed. ...gets prank calls from the 208 area code everynight ...bought a car from his QB ...gave said car to a new QB recruit ...upset at first QB for screwing up his loan application and giving him a lower credit score ...upset at second QB for not being as good as the first QB ...blames Oregon's uniform more than the refs ...appealing the NCAA for an 18th year of eligibility for Jason White ...hired Brian Bozely as new conditioning coach ...hired Eric Dickerson and Craig James as recruitment specialists ...thinks Arizona sucks ...cries at night knowing he will never be out of the shadow of Barry Switzer so childish

Great news...we can now add a baseball or men's soccer team and it should only knock us down to a "C" and as my degree will attest...a "C" is still passing.

This would be the prank to end all pranks...I will gladly help post bail for whoever gets this done...and I'm sure the entire state of Idaho will take care of your legal charges

It got mentioned on her I believe yesterday when the I-35 expansion plan was posted that perhaps RV and the university are playing a wait and see game with TX DOT. If I-35 is expanded through Denton, Fouts would have to go and TX DOT would have to pay for it if it was "still in use." This article doesn't seem to optimistic

You got it...this should keep me occupied at work for a few minutes...its nice to come in and have something to do Very well put...I dont promote a pure Socialist system...we've seen them in the world and they don't work...put unchecked Capitalism will lead to the exact same result. Without regulations on compitition you will eventually end up with a winner...and that winner will single-handedly control the market and be able to dictate pricing and will have the financial ability to prevent others from joining their market. I'm not sure "saddistic" "counter-productive" and "hypocritical" are considered posittive endorcements...but I'll check with the dictionary in a moment. I am well aware I'm in the minority with my opinions and I'm perfectly comfortable with that. I think cities go through these types of cycles...Detroit was a slum for years but is really pulling itself together. Dallas has had some poor management, investing money in the wrong areas i.e. letting the Cowboys get away. People forget what Deep Ellum was 5-10 years ago. Nice restaurants, very successful clubs and a relativly safe atmosphere in which you would see families...atleast in the early evening. Trees, DaDa, Gypsy ect were THE live music venues in Dallas. Deep Ellum started going downhill when the city allowed 4am clubs like Uropa and it brought in a different crowd. There is a lot of history to the area. Well whose to say Fair Park would even be there? If 25-30 years ago Dallas had allowed the skyline to expand across Central imagine who much the free market coud've expanded. I think Big Tex would've been best suited inside a 70 story office building. Maybe keep one seat from the Farris Wheel in the lobby of a new bank tower...you know, for posterity purposes...remind people of what used to be there. I live close to NYC...and i promise you that there are plenty of business who would love to build their newest skyscraper right in the heart of Central Park...and I bet the free market would have little problem with that. Deep Ellum was a historically significant area that needed to be protected...and still does for that matter. If the free market were allowed to dictate land usage entirely we'd have nothing but factories, skylines and Planos...no parks, no museums, no unique and distinct areas. About as well put as I've seen. I think to say we're tolerent of others is to completely ignore history. People have been burned at the stake, drowned, hanged, tortured, exiled all for their religious beliefs. The church is responsible for some gross misdeeds in its 2000 years of existance. I'm not sure how we classify Northern Ireland's struggle as political or religious, but the tensions are certainly rooted in religion. I believe America is largly responsible for these acts becoming intolerable by recognizing the need to seperate religion from government and allowing free practice...thats a relativly modern line of thinking. I feel that the animosity you believe is being directed towards religious folk in this country is because you're mouthpieces can be very abraisive...Pat Robertson, Will Donahue ect don't exactly preach for tolerance and inclusion. Socialism...when Russia implimented Socialism they did so almost by the letter of Marx's philosophy...I guess ignoring the part where he didn't believe it would ever be functional...and because of that Socialism is associated with all of Marx's ideas (religion is the opiate of the masses)...the Socialism in America to which I've been refering are the economic influences that prevent the market from completely dictating our choices. I believe the red part of Cool Beans will be staying but the extension into the concrete building (dart room) they will be losing but I'm not certain.

Are you referring to the large field across the street from the Rec Center and next to the tennis court? According to the Master Plan which I have been reading all day that should stay a soccer field...so the baracade may just be to prevent play and allow the grass to regrow

Thats who I'm hoping will be under(behind?) center in Norman.

Boy...you very deftly took that out of context. Are you employed by Fox News...if not send them a link to this site and you're bound to get a job as a writer and researcher for Bill O'Reilly.

ohhh...and yes Fouts needs to go...I've actually got the Master Plan open on my computer as I type this and I can't wait to come back and walk down Gateway Park, cross the pedestian bridge over 35 and go watch the AP #8 team in the country airing it out at home against USC at the new Greene-Kennedy Field.

During the mid to late 1970's building space in the Deep Ellum area bottomed out at around $2-$5 per square foot and many artists and small businesses moved in and revitalized an historically significant area...land speculation quickly followed as the Deep Ellum area is right next to downtown and was prime real estate to expand the downtown skyline. Admist discussion and protest, the city stepped in and formulated a plan known as The Near-Eastside Plan in the early 1980's that controlled land usage and established construction and height regulations...essentially saving the Deep Ellum area from becoming an expansion of the downtown skyline, as the market would've determined if city management wouldn't have recognized the importance of the area. Now, say what you want for what Deep Ellum has become today...but the area was a popular and economically viable area for nearly 20 years following this project. Hate to break it to you Lifer...but socialism has its place in America...pure capitalism will leave you the exact same result as pure socialism...neither work without the other and this country is still very much weighted toward the capitalism.

Hehe...well played sir...well played indeed. I'm still not sure what everyone saw in the spring game aside from the fact that our corners may need some safety help on the two deep touchdowns to Casey Fitzgerald.
