My bad, 6PM Central.

1 million dollars!

Not used to having my heart race like that in August! Glad we got it done!

I just wish we got the opportunity to show ourselves in the NCAA Tournament the past two years. We've got a group of guys who refuse to lose!!

[Matt from A700]

No such thing as tampering in TBT, right?

Drexel basketball player found dead in his on-campus apartment today. Wonder if they'll consider suspending the game out of respect.

Love this team, but curious as to why JJ and DJ aren't playing.  

Edit: I guess DJ has been away too long, but I was surprised JJ never played last year or this.  Just an observation on my part.  No big deal.

Didn't someone mention yesterday it would be 1pm today?

Let me address and put to bed the dj. Jj. Question.  Dj has a fine career going in commercial real estate.  Jj has a fine career going as an engineer.  

They are not in game shape.  They dont play basketball anymore.

Quit wondering.  Its not happening.  The only reason they ever hit the roster last year was to fake that we actually could field a team.

Having said, their influence and passion is why we are here.

The walk to the arena is hitting a little different tonight....

God bless north texas and go mean green!!!!

End of 1st: Bleed Green 18 Heartfire 21

Why are there only 8 guys on the team now? Where is Jordan Duffy? In the box score it also showed Jordan Williams as not playing and never heard he was even on the team. I know when it started they had 10-12 and Duffy was on the roster.

I'm pretty sure it was posted on here before, they were no-shows.

Are we playing the Monstars? Dang !

We unfortunately had a couple of no shows.

Halftime: Heartfire 47 Bleed Green 34

[GMG_Dallas]

Tough end to the first half but these guys (at least the UNT guys) have all been here before. They know what it takes. It ain't over 'til it's over and I believe in them because I've seen the pull out wins like this before.

Pretty irritating actually. I know Duffy was “on the team”…. Didn’t know about Jordan Williams, but that makes me want to win the million even more to let them know they can shove it.

I wonder why Smart didn’t play. He practiced with the team.

End of 3rd: Heartfire 62 Bleed Green 54

[BleedingGreen]

Andre Shaw is excellent.

[BleedingGreen]

Whatever happens in this game, we need to all be proud of the players and basketball program. 

[CMJ]

Sometimes it's just not your night.  The guys played well though, and in the tournament they were fantastic.

[Marty]

Final: Heartfire 78 Bleed Green 73. Great run but comes up a little short. 

Proud of the Bleed Green!
