It's been months in the making, but it was worth the hard work and effort. As always, I'll continue to maintain the site as I have in the past especially during the season. I hope you all enjoy the final result. Let's Go North Texas I would appreciate your feedback here in this thread. Thanks.

No, other words were more accurately said regarding the Dolphins... "[they] made me cry". Been a fan of them since the early 80's and I continued to hope through out the years that they would get themselves a decent RB to run along side Marino's arm. And as we all know that never happened.

Wow, I just looked at the blog earlier this morning and it was still there, now it's as you mention (a lst post from 11/5/07). I wonder....

Considering there's only 119 teams altogether, we better be able to crack the top 100 this fall.

For those that have been salivating... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_North_Tex...n_Green_Stadium ... shows estimated build date 2011, with open date being 2012

Detroit fan here... I'm looking forward to a match against rival Colorado -- I guess by that logic, Dallas wound be playing San Jose. However a Dallas / Colorado match-up would be nice -- so we (Detroit) can get revenge on Calgary for a prior early elimination. Either way, the next round will serve up some good games in the West!

Found this article from a few years back on Ealey: SECRET WEAPON--Kevin Ealey crucial to Brenham's recent offensive, defensive changes By RICHARD BRAY/Sports Editor http://www.brenhambanner.com/articles/2006...ts/sports01.txt ...very sad to see what happened since.

I had one this past weekend at the Scarborough Festival... Girl was wearing a BLUE t-shirt with North Texas printed across the front. One of the Festival employees shouts out in his Irish accent, "Mean Green, eh? Then why the blue shirt? Looks like the Mean Turquoise to me. [chuckles]". Meanwhile another feller in the crowd to my right shouts out, "Go Mean Green!" I too echo his sentiments and shout out Mean Green. All the while, this girl is doing her best to explain the shirt and why it's BLUE.

That's my guess as well.

Latest update... they were on Spring Break this week... no practices held.

You know we're in the off-season when...

Would you have preferred something like this: Phoenix Coyotes ...of course in the school colors of red/black with a bit of white thrown in for accents? That's sort of what I think of when I visualize a howling wolf.

Let's turn back the clock... I found this article on RV from April 4, 2001, the announcement of Dr. Pohl's selection as new Athletic Director. Hard to believe that in seven years (in three weeks that is), all that has changed with regards to North Texas Athletics. Dr. Pohl had the following to say about RV: RV has been quoted saying: Then reading the most recent information (as of last year) from the North Texas Athletics website (aka. MeanGreenSports.com) we see the following: And for you closet "Sexy Time" freaks out there... It's hard to believe all that's changed during his tenure, and I can't wait to see what the future brings ( :cough: a new stadium :cough: ). Keep up the great work RV, and here's to all you've done and plan to do for North Texas Athletics. Jeff - Alum F'97

Ok for those off campus... Is that Masters Hall? And why is is getting torn down / repaired?

Found this on the "inter-web" SOURCE: http://www.adamnfineartist.com/abnerhaynes.html and this too...

Thanks badgerwolf -- you beat me to it.

They're too busy admiring their new stadium.

Erector set or not... much better than Fouts!

Ok, weren't the schedules for the SBC to be released on March 1st? I've been checking the various conference athletics sites and have not seen the "finalized" schedules provided. From ULM's site http://www.ulmathletics.com/ViewArticle.db...;ATCLID=1385092

I think the previous version contained the phrase, "Dick Jokes", that's the only thing I could think of that someone could take offense from. If that's not it, then I have no idea what the reason for the change is.

I see a t-shirt opportunity coming... similar to "Sink Navy" last year.
