Adman has told me that the Day of the Dead Festival http://www.dentondayofthedeadfestival.com/dentondayofthedeadfestival/Home.html is all day this Saturday. With "A salsa cook-off, music & dancing, street performers and side show entertainers, Denton’s original Halloween Cabaret “Cirque du Horror,” as well as Denton’s very own Coffin Races and a lantern-lit twilight parade" we are deciding to head to Denton via the Train for the day.

The Coffin Races are from 1-4pm http://vimeo.com/73285565 and I don't want to miss much of that.

Harry and I are leaving the Royal Station in Dallas (Green Line) at 1:11 to arrive in Denton at 2:02. The game kicks off at 6pm and we are gonna watch at East Side Social Club https://www.facebook.com/pages/East-Side-Social-Club/470164346352154

What better place to watch us play than in Denton itself around others who feel the same way as we do about NT?

The train heading back leaves at either 10:20 or 11:53 PM but we are taking the 10:20 with an arrival back at Royal and 35 at 11:10. Anyone that wants to is more than welcome to ride up with us. I just figured with all the things happening right there in the square plus the game that Denton might not be a bad place to spend a Saturday when we don't have a home game..

See you guys out there.

I've been considering taking the train up from Lewisville on Saturday, but I don't yet know the weekend kid schedule. I can't very well go galavanting around the square until 11:30 only to come home and find that she got home at 7 and has been sitting around watching bad Netflix and subsisting on chewing gum and frozen pot stickers.

But if I am free that night, totally taking the train up. Learned that trick going to Oak Street over the summer. Totally worth it.

I'm just cheap. Does that count?

I actually always encourage the train. Dallas is putting a lot of money into the DART and Denton likewise with DCTA trying to get us caught up with other major cities, some of which are completely dependent on Public transit. I've always been an advocate of the downtown centric city with adequate public transportation as opposed to suburbs and cars but thats just me.

      Evansville (11/5/24)

      Massie is basically listed at the same build as both AScott and TBell…our starting PFs for the last four seasons. That’s at least part of the reason I see Massie as a fit at our 4…so much of our defense is built around switching, denying entry and team rebounding…so we’ve never needed 6’8” 250 at the 4. I agree Vice is such a big wildcard. If it’s literally just him and Sissoko sharing minutes at the 5 and giving say 12/12 collectively, this squad could be a monster and legit ten-deep. this level of pre-season speculation is pretty darn fun. We are not have like three dudes on the roster we’re pretty well confident in knowing what they’ll give us…Walker, Sissoko and Stone…everyone else is kinda up in the air. personally…I think Wright is knocking on the door of 20ppg…with Floyd, Josell, Massie all around double-figures…balanced by Walker, Newell and some center combo giving 7-8/game.

      Goal Post Alert

      For the players and coaches, yes. For the student section, nope. They’re kids. Let them make some lifetime memories and rip the goal posts down.

      Memphis's Tyreek Smith Hits Portal Hours Before Opener

      What's happened to APR? Is that still a thing? It used to be that if more than a few players left a football program (much more so a basketball program) without graduating in the same year, it would kill a team's APR.

      Memphis's Tyreek Smith Hits Portal Hours Before Opener

      Have almost given up trying to figure out time lines with college athletes. Tell me how in the world athletes can transfer three or four times and still be on any path to have the proper amount of hours at a school to graduate. It has become a total joke.
