None within walking distance, SMU practically has no nightlife nearby. Can't even buy beer at the CVS. Embarrassing. 

Go to Dots.

That's not totally fair, there's a couple cool bars off SMU boulevard like Milo's. They are also a stone's throw away from lower Greenville.

I would guess Dot's was a good bet. Just south of Uni Park. It's owned by Denton's bearded beer daddy John Williams of Oak Street and East Side fame. Great place, and has a huge battle flag hanging in it.

There is a large bussed contingent of green leaving Eastside right now for Dot's. We'll be there for a few hours then get to the Boulevard by 4:00.

Ha! I remember you from when I was on your board last year. You're the racist guy from Houston who claims Dallas and SMU have no culture. lol And you're fixated on the one business that does not sell booze of the 100s around SMU. Walk across the street to 7-11 or Tom Thumb on Hillcrest and buy all the beer you want. There are no bars within walking distance of SMU, seriously?? Do you even read what you post? There are probably ten bars within walking distance of SMU - Trinity Hall, Milo's, Barley House, Twin Peaks, People's Last Stand, Green Elephant, Ozona's to name a few. and a few blocks away there are probably 15 more bars on Lower Greenville. Not to mention SMU was the first, I believe, college in Texas to sell beer at football and basketball games. 

And for the record, Dots is a great bar. Love that place.

Racist guy? LOL what?

Dallas is a cultureless pit, that is kind of hard to argue. You can argue a lot of things about me, racist is kind of hilarious though. Arguing that Dallas is very white, maybe? Because it is? And SMU being overly homogenous--which is a statistic fact?

None of those bars are walkable, unless you enjoy getting harassed by hobos and dodging cars on the 75 feeder.

Also, did you really put Twin Peaks in that list? Hahahahaha.

We have bars literally on campus at UNT.

By all means, feel free to come call me a racist tonight at Dot's.

You're right statistics don't lie. Dallas is almost identical racially to Houston give or take a percentage or two. Look it up. 

As for SMU, it is as diverse or moreso than its peer private schools - TCU, Baylor and Tulane. Again, look it up. I know you only see what you want to kind of like fixating on the lone business around SMU that doesn't sell alcohol. And what does that even mean or prove? I'm pretty sure that is a CVS decision not SMU, Dallas or University Park. 

I think I'll probably pass on meeting you at Dots but that sounds like a very cultured, educated way to handle a difference of opinion. 

Lastly, the several times I have visited this board all of your posts have racial/cultural overtones. That is usually an indicator to me. Racists come in all forms, races and backgrounds. And I'm not white by the way. Hard to believe I know since I went to SMU and I'm from Dallas.

No, it's not. Houston is the most diverse city in america. Try again, bud.

Okay, you're obviously not going to look at facts/stats but you're making yourself look silly now. Houston is very diverse, and so is Dallas but Houston not the most diverse city in America. Statistically Sacramento is. And you've never been to NYC, LA or Miami if you think Houston is more diverse than those cities. 

edit: just looked it up and the new estimated numbers do have Houston as the most diverse. my bad, you're right on that. I never disputed that Houston is not diverse but you painting Dallas as lily white and uncultured is simply untrue. There isn't a lot of difference between the two cities.

Milo's is one of my favorite places when I lived in the village.

Little bit of research goes a long way, but not expecting a smoo grad to research.

      I agree. Injuries are bound to happen. They almost did tonight. They did last season. Utah State played without a starter tonight and last night due to food poisoning. You never know. We need more than 8 guys prepared to play effectively.

      Utah State (11/29/24)

      Giving a few guys some rest and clearing the bench are two different things. We were up 17 against UNI with a couple minutes left in the first half and again early in the second half. Those are prime opportunities to sub in your 9th and 10th guys and give a couple of your main rotation guys a few minutes of rest. We actually had a double digit lead most of the second half against UNI. It was never really threatened. Edit to add it's kind of funny to suggest we were never in a position to clear the bench against UNI yet Utah State played 11 guys against us and 10 against St Bonaventure. Some get on for less than 10 minutes but I promise you a starter gets needed rest for those few minutes they get to sit. Maybe we should do as the top 30 team does?

      Utah State (11/29/24)

      the UNI game was a 9 point game with 3:30 to play. 57-48. we shut them out from there to push it to 20, but at no point short of the last minute or so was it even possible to clear the bench. everybody needs stop over-analyzing tonight's loss. it was a toss up...they made a few more plays than we did. play the game ten times and it's 5/5 with a top 30 team that might sneak into the top 25 by Christmas.

      Hard to blame the refs when we forced 16 turnovers and took 15 more shots. Just couldn't hit our shots. Sometimes you're cold. I'm going to agree with @UNTLiferwho said we should have played bench guys against UNI considering it was a blowout. Have to give your starters rest when you can, especially on the first of a back-to-back.

      oh no...a downvote. articulate a half-decent opinion or go the eff away. I swear actually having a winning program has made this board worse.
