Anyone Else Notice

Anyone else notice the doom & gloom on the board disappeared the moment the new schedule was released.

I was about to start complaining... call me conservative, but I can't take this rampant optimism any longer. I don't even recognize this board no more. People need to bring the gloom back, because you know:

the university of north texas, and particularly its athletic department is doomed... DOOMED I tell ya!!!

Nobody will come and watch all these new "local" (another word for people who just havent gotten around enough) opponents! None of these late hyped 3 star recruits will work out (they are all just pampered brats looking for a free ride anyway)! Coach Mac will take lessons from Coach Benford in the offseason (because there are several months were it is neither football nor Basketball season, and you gotta keep up to date) ! We will loose every game by 3 touchdowns or more (everyone is overhyped, the refs in C-USA will hate us)! C-USA will disband before we even play a game! If the team ever gets good it will be broken down by Injuries! If the team should win anyway a thunderstorm will make sure noone will get to see it at the Stadium!

...so everyone please go back to expecting the worst. After all, the point of being a NT fan -even more the point of being on this board - is to learn patience and and to keep trying in the face of lasting adversity, as well as the correct deployment of the sentence " there is always next year".

I really like the 2013 schedule. Still, wish we had an away game @ Marshall since this would be a reasonable drive from MD. Oh well.

Doom and gloom will return if the team hasn't improved and plays against overall better competition. Wait for it.

Actually I did notice a much more upbeat atmosphere after the football schedule was released - plus some nice, recent commitments.

But that is the Mean Green Nation - one minute we're ready to cancel all athletic programs, the next minute we're talking National Championships

I admit I noticed the "doom" is gone but the "gloom" is as present as ever.

[ragpicker]

I will admit to gloom and doom from time to time, but I have always been a North Texas fan through thin and thin. (The new schedule is exciting).

I'm not sure about the doom, but I'm gloomy since we were right and UTEP is at home. I doubt I'll be coming home any time this year and was hoping to catch you guys in El Paso, but... THERE'S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR! (See what I did there? Okay, okay, I'm done.)
