*Not calling out anyone who starts something not " non unt sports " because I've done it and there is no other forum to post political topics *

Adms can we please get a political forum or just a " other " section please ??

I miss coming in here and being able to discuss Mavericks , Rangers or whatever non unt sport topics that there are , but now it has pretty much turned into a politcal forum and I would just like some kind of seperation between the two , Thanks

Might I suggest perhaps a general sports forum?

Just start a sports thread and it will be fine, I don't think you need a different forum header.

Though not much to talk about with the Stars out of the playoffs.

Mavs to soon be eliminated.

Rangers suck, regardless of current record they will fold like a pop tent after the all star break.

The Cowboys??? I don't know but I hate Wade Phillips. But football is an eternity away it always seems in the beginning of May.

Soccer is not a real sport.

Golf is a game better played then watched.

Take those hot sports opinions!

Stars will be back next year, not a bad playoffs so far. Red Wings arent cruising through.

Mavs, well, I guess they got further than expected.

Rangers arent that bad. The longer they are in first, the more we get to hear the "First place Texas Rangers." drop

Hey, at least JJ got rid of Terrell Owens. But lets all root for the Dolphins too.

Soccer is a sport, just a bad one on TV.

Golf is not a sport and never will be. Thus, Tiger Woods is not an athlete, so everybody can take off their Tiger kneepads.

and I will raise you one topic: UNT needs a women's gymnastics team, this will help us get a baseball team.

Nascar is just as gay as golf

Much like golf, I bet NASCAR is a different experience if you are driving the car.

NASCAR is still not a sport!

NASCAR = Sport... But the drivers are not athletes, same thing for golf. Any competitio where the contestants determine a winner or loser is a sport, while the contestants may not be athletes.

Gymnastics = Non-Sport... But the contestants are surely athletes. Anything score be judges is not sport, with the exception of boxing, and only because the contestant has it in his power to knock the other guy out.

What about a spelling Bee?

I do agree that Judging should automatically disqualify anything as a sport.

The best comparison that I have heard is that Nascar is no more of a sport than an Airshow is. And I have to agree with that. It is a spectator's event - but not a sport.

Boxing has become a joke of a sport. Yes there are some real good fighters out there , but too many scandals , too many belts , poor judging and lack of marquee matchups has ruined the sport. If PacMan vs Mayweather can come to terms on a fight then it could help revive the sport.

Yes, but what info do you have that he ever competed in a spelling bee. That would be my point. I think he was too busy learning other life lessons.

      Now 48-18. Honestly, this is about as frustrating as it can be for those of us that think the league deserves more respect. I get worried that the data/committee hangs their hats on these losses, rather than look at all the mid-P5 wins we accumulate. Then, when selection weekend rolls around and one or two of us Americans are on the bubble, we get knocked out of discussion in favor of some 0.500 P5 squad.

      Kinda OT, but can someone talk about what Hodge does from an x-and-os standpoint? Curious on both sides of the court. The past 5 years work has removed me from nerding out on the game as much as I used to. You don't see as many coaches from the Iba/Knight trees anymore, side effect being I don't know how these current coaches think about the game.

      In terms of difficulty, I think this team will be closer to SDSU than it is to St. Bonaventure. This will be tough and would be a good win for us. Likely Q2 but a chance of bring Q1 at a neutral site. They have wins at Minnesota and home against Oregon St. ( Oregon St. just played Oregon to 3pts in a battle down the stretch. By all accounts, we got handled by Oregon.) This will have great test for our guards to stay under control. We have seen stretches where Drake and even Mason have struggled with TOs. We need to handle the pressure. We should have the numbers to stay fresh so they need to stay high focus high intensity when they are on the floor. Hoping Ian is feeling better today. We could use him for sure. The tallest they play is 6’9”(3x players) and have 2x 6’1” guards who play a lot of minutes. Would love to see Mason use his strength and exploit those smaller guards as well as Drake and Ian would also be quite a bit taller than them. Fish, Templin and Gateretse should find opportunities this game and maybe even some time for Isaac Davis to use his strength. I think Akanno might have another good game here as well. We need to have to them struggle against our defense and break out for easy baskets, make the game go our way rather than being bogged down attacking their set defense. Also, I think our bigs run the floor much better than their 6’9” 245lb center and we should be able to find some easy baskets if we break out quick like we like to do. I think it will be tough sledding initially until we can calm down and figure out their defensive pressure, then I think we see us separate mid 2nd half and we take the lead for good.
