To non-Americans it is also used to refer to all Americans.


All, this is a light hearted conversation after watching so many hair-pulling turnovers, exactly on the definition PonySnob and XC, I will refine that non-Americans see either Americans or Texans!

I sure hope that we can clean up that passing or else Cinci is going to eat us up.

It appeared that the sloppy passing was due in part to fatigue. Our free throw shooting has to be better. Milton is a hard one to figure. His shooting last night was way below his standards. And some of the fouls called last night were so picky it was ridiculous.

We can only shoot FT's in North Carolina, apparently.
Was disappointing to see the return of miss the first, hit the second.

Irritating. This can be corrected. It's gonna make the difference somewhere down the road.

As is foul trouble like last night and our shortest of benches.

First game LIVE this year. For five $'s we play great.
Stallions comment about the quick feet on D is quite apparent.
Man, those lazy [deleted] passing are going to cost us if we don't focus.

Thanks to the gardener ;-) for some PRIMO tickets.

Go Mustangs.

I love how Jarrey Foster has been playing. Shake looked more aggressive tonight.

JHG Temple fan Pierre-Louis and Perry (two of your recruits) look like good players never seen or heard much about your other two recruits.


JP Moorman could be the best player in NC. Kinda similar to Semi, but not as built, and a bit more PG-oriented. Does everything. Shoots from all over, great passer, highlight dunks, blocks, rebounds, steals.

Justyn Hamilton is a defensive freak. Rebounds, blocked shots. Raw offensively. 1st or 2nd best C in NC. UNC signee Brandon Huffman is much bigger, and less raw offensively, but they're pretty close in talent. Hamilton needs a college weight room/program badly. He's maybe 200 lbs. soaking wet.

We managed to get 3 recruits from NC. Perry is from NC, but moved to MD.

Intro video was MUCH better. Officiating was awful and inconsistent, on both sides. Crowd was pretty good, will be glad for the students to get back. Poor FT shooting is going to cost us a game somewhere down the line, unfortunately. Looking forward to the game in Cinci, but need to take care of USF first!

Strange game where it really felt like we were playing like crap but were still up by double digits.

If we can clean up the lazy turnovers and the free pitch shooting we can really make something happen this season.

Nice to see a good strong crowd at Moody too even though the students and spirit squads decided to take the night off.

Did the students really "take the night off"l last night? Isn't something like 60% of the student body from out of state these days? Guessing the percentage of students from the DFW area isn't really all that high anymore either.

Interesting in Yanks post game he mentioned the many TOs and said the players met among themselves after the game before he entered the lockerroom and discussed the many TOS. When he entered they told him he needn't say anything about it as it had been thoroughly hashed out.
Long live Inez Perez!
