Wow dude. That's low. That may be the worst insult one could drop on any other fanbase.

YIKES.

It sounds like you may be starting to understand how smack talk works...congrats.

Be patient. They are only 3 years old, after all.

You should expect temper tantrums and crying when they don't get what they want.

If I didn't know any better I'd think I just read a bleacher report article.

Lowest common denominators?

Same, maybe it crashed.

I was involved in SGA back then and the OP is just flat wrong.

"I like how unt calls us out for not having our own stadium, well I did a little research and found some interesting things about Apogee Stadium..."

"For the spring 2002 student election, UNT Student Government Association (SGA) senators held a referendum on whether to recommend that the University of North Texas SystemBoard of Regents increase the student athletics fee by $4.50 per credit hour, $1 of which would be dedicated to "facility improvements".[9] The referendum was rejected by UNT's voting students, with 1,023 voting for the proposal and 1,265 voting against it. After the vote, however, school administrators lobbied senators to increase the fee as a way to help the university's athletics program achieve Title IXcompliance. The student senators then approved a student fee increase of $3 per credit hour, which the Board of Regents implemented immediately.[10] Consequently, students mounted a recall election campaign, supported by documentary filmmaker Michael Moore, which resulted in the removal of 14 student senators from office.[11][12]"

"The Alamodome might not be ours, but at least we didn't steal from students to pay for the cost of using it.

Stay classy c-UNT, stay classy."

What a moron, thats not even accurate. The students' voted for Apogee in 2008. That vote was from way back and while a stadium was loosely tied to it, it was for broad improvements for athletics and they were trying to tie anything they could to it to help it get approved (title IX improvements, etc).

Whats more is, if I am correct in my limited research that took about 30 seconds, UTSA charges their students higher athletic fees (240 cap) than North Texas (150 cap). Has anyone mentioned that we own our own football stadium and nUTSAck has a rental stadium far from campus?

Did you guys notice he put a C in front of UNT???

That was a mean thing to do.

But the originality makes up for the meanness...

[Rudy]

Did he really say "stay classy" and then immediately drop the C word?

Hey put a "-" in between the c and u, so it became classy.

Some of you are real hypocrites. Y'all call us the next door neighbors that peak over the fence to see what y'all are doing, but you have your admin posting links to our threads. There have been countless threads on here about UTSA, but just a few about north Texas over on RT.

Y'all call us nUTSAk but y'all get mad when we call y'all c-UNT.

Y'all posted gifs about how y'all didn't read some of the posts that we made here and y'all get mad when we turned around and do the same thing.

[MeanGreenWithEnvy]

Lunch is almost over, so I don't have a lot of time to fill in the details, but this Runner definitely confounded the facts here.

The SGA stuff he cited was a separate issue from Apogee altogether. It happened years before the vote that got Apogee rolling.

[UNTexas]

But the originality makes up for the meanness...

He added a C. He's so clever! UNT has an athletic fee voted on by the students. Evil buggers in Denton.

The illiterate author sounds like he tells fart jokes and writes worse than a seven year old. He needs to get a show on MSNBC, he'd fit in famously.
