No it really doesn't, but is it an honest recounting of our history in that series and our recent opening day struggles? If it is then I say it is fair game. I didn't see anything blatently negative in that article, just the facts, Joe Friday would be proud.

Joe Friday isn't trying to entice Joe Fan to buy season tickets.

I guess being produced by the school as that piece i think was..... you have a very good point.

If that had been written by Vito, I would continue with my first thought... The school could have focused on something a little more positive, the University is allowed to upsell where journalists, in my opion, shouldn't.

Having stood next to and conversed with Vito several times last season I have always been of the impression that he views NT as "just lil' ol North Texas." Almost as if it's not really necessary to get too excited about anything that goes on around here, good or bad, because in the grand scheme of things it's "just lil' ol' North Texas." Combine this with the stand outside the gates and wait for us to walk by for interviews treatment and you get what amounts to a breeding ground for taking your pot shots when you can...and make no mistake, given our record from last season the opportunities are there.

I have never thought that spinning things down the middle was "blowing smoke" or "being a homer." The way he writes things up is no more necessary, or helpful, though than the way our own athletic department puts things forth though. Just wait, there will be an article soon about how "North Texas also has an exciting road game against the LSU Tigers! Last time the two teams played North Texas lost 4,000 to 0!!!"

Hope it's that close this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!
