I voted "no", but almost immediately regretted not voting "pie", and wished I could change my vote...I'm just another flipflopper, dadgummit! Has anyone here ever been to the Pie Peddlars in Glen Rose? I went in there Friday; ate pie and took pie with me; on Saturday, my wife went in and made me stay in the car and await my "surprise", which was cherry-rhubarb pie. My favorite from there? As always, as anywhere else, pecan.

How about just creating a political forum ??

When I was at Microsoft, there was a political public folder on the Exchange server (approved by senior management in Bellevue!).

Before joining, you had to fill an electronic acknowledgment form that stated it was a profanity-laden forum with controversial topics, and that unless there was something illegal posted (threats of violence, etc.) that there would be no action taken by management.

Imagine some of the brightest people in the software business in an all-out battle royal political forum. It was brutal.

Banning political discussions is insane. Enforce the "no peronal attacks" rule so it stays somewhat civil and let people have at it...

...and if you can't stand sifting through it, create a political forum, and get one or two or four of us who enjoy the debate to moderate it based on your guidelines and then never look at it again.

Just a quick update on how I am grading this poll:

Yes: I ban political discussion.

No: I allow political discussion.

You're a Nazi: I ban the voter.

I like Pie: We shut down Gmg.com and startup NorthTexasPieFans.com

;)

Will there be a chance for appeal and revote? I don't see enough numbers here to believe this accurately represents the opinion of the entire board.

I also think we should take the two finalists and have a vote between them. the idea of getting a northtexaspiefans.com really is swaying my vote.

I don't mind a little political discussion, but let's not rehash everything multiple times.

I like a little political discussion, but there seems to be a lot of rehash.

There seem to be a lot of threads rehashing the same political topics. I mean, I like political discussion as much as the next guy, but I'm just sayin'.

The Pie Peddlars in Glen Rose (I've already mentioned them once, so blame me for repetitious posting) make a business out of staying open only on Saturdays and 2 hours on Fridays (the rest of the time they're kindergarten teachers in the local school district). It seems like a great business for people who like to work, but not too much. The whole pie subject is causing me to have random neuron firings; dies anyone know if there are still any places anywhere in Denton County known for pie? What about the Ranchman's Cafe in Ponder? Just trying to think what being a PieFan would be like, and am really liking those thoughts.

Ranchmans still has great pie. And cobbler... and just about everything else.

      2025 DC Wish List

      We will need to connect some dots for a potential new DC hire (assuming the interim doesn't get it). First, Caponi had no apparent Texas connections. He was a career defensive asst position coach at several schools, and lastly a CB coach at Iowa State, before being elevated to DC at UNT. He did have some DC time at a Dlll school in 2008-10, but nothing since. Was he elevated too fast? https://meangreensports.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/matt-caponi/731 Does Morris have a short-list already? Probably. It's not like everyone didn't know there needed to be a change in DC for some time coming. Here are some starting criteria: -The new DC "should" have previous FCS or FBS DC experience...so a repeat learning-curve doesn't happen. -Texas ties for recruiting would be bonus points. -For a quick hire, I expect it to be someone Morris is already familiar with, no interview needed, only $ negotiated. -Are 2-year contracts a thing for Coordinators in FBS? If not, One-year only please, until we establish confidence. So, with all that in mind: -Find some FCS DCs that Morris worked with somewhere else. -A DC on an FBS staff where the HC has already been fired, or soon will be, but they had a good Defense! (a new HC will bring his own staff in). -A former head coach that has been recently recycled back thru DC to try again.

      Why Support this Program?….Seriously!?

      In their defense, they probably got influenced by free tickets, the DFW media swooning over them, and want to see why being a real winner feels like.
