Turn Your Keys In Now DD...Don't Plan Any Trip To

A much shorter & revised version below

AND.......This shorter/revised post (mostly) for main campus lurkers to ponder upon and smoke on for awhile. For the rest, enjoy another cup of Sunday AM coffee and (like me) try to understand what the hell is really going on at our alma mater; you know, the one we used to have a slogan concerning athletics that said:

Mean Green & Proud of It?

And to you who still think all this deserves a practice field to be named after Darrell Dickey should consider joining the many of us who now (because of last nights actions by DD) have turned 180 degrees with this entire thing and only hope the new UNT president AND..............

..............Bobby Ray (who hath wrought to us all the continuance of this DD business in the first place) along with his Board of Regents would make (even) this Monday AM a public statement or press release that would state because of the actions of our HFC on Saturday night in front of the students and home crowd and upon further review of the entire situation, the practice field will have no name attached to it at this time. And maybe a note to Mattress Mac similar to this:

Sir, a most heartfelt thanks for the gift but that million dollars has long been spent and you really needed to have made such a request to name a "practice field" after your buddy right after you initially made that donation. AND..............If we set another precedent like that up here, MM, then we may have others who gave long ago wanting to switch names on other venues or areas of our campus. Uh...........................Duh?

And yes, to some of you who would have the 'nads: Many, many, many of us will accept many of your heartfelt apologies and admissions from you who long ago said we were ALL WRONG ABOUT DARRELL DICKEY...........but now the few, the brave and the bold of you who would possibly 'fess up to it today that we were pretty damn close to being right-on target concerning even further bush league tactics or low class stunts from the man and the coach who would be named Darrell Dickey.

There are just so many trends at UNT of the variety that few universities would want to keep perservering that our people just cannot seem to ever detect (or admit that they are happening); who knows, maybe its just one of those "they can't see the trees for the forest" type of deals, but it is making a school that already suffers from a tremendous Lone Star State inferiority complex (from some---not all) look even more riduculous.

BTW, speaking of, uh, production? Another thing DD has yet to produce is a win over a (yes Silver Eagle, you, too, were also right) a better coached (by Schnellenberger) football team with the FAU HFC who could out-coach DD Ball even if he had a bunch of North Koreans playing football for their first time (after a week of practice). But as has been said before the last 2 or so years, Coach DD Ball has yet to beat a school (FAU) who hasn't even been in the football business all that long. So what would be a handul of your spins for that, eh? NOTE: Some should be reminded that 2 future SBC schools beat DD Ball during 2 of those 4 bowl years, too.

Of course I was right.....I'm always right. .....especially about the obvious.
