Criticism of gameday presentation is highly dependent on how the team performs.

While we would obviously all be happier with a better product on the field, it would not be enough to blind us of the high-schoolish feel to almost everything else going on in the stadium.

Agreed. JJ's job is to ...

If you want your thoughts/feelings known about the gameday experience at SMU/Ford Stadium, write to Jeff Konya (Senior Associate Athletic Director) in the SMU Athletics, Office of Marketing & Game Presentation. Jeff's email is [email protected].

If he is doing his job, he should be reading ...

Don't know if there's an organized event. If you're going to be near downtown, Third Base is probably the best option. It's on Sixth, just east of Mopac.

At least the Metallica pre game was better than "Pony Up." I completely agree that the live technical direction in the booth is pathetic. How much could it cost to get someone from the game-day production staff for the Cowboys to come help the folks running things at Ford? Not saying that I do or do ...

Frustrated? Yes. Ready to throw in the towel? Hell no. I agree with Stallion that as frustrating as it is to watch, I am not about to turn tail now that we've taken steps to becoming relevant again.

But even though I am not going to back down my support for this program, it does not mean I do ...

ditto. I've been trying to find a jersey other than #11 for my son, with no luck.

Jersey

Anyone know where I can get a youth jersey for my 11 year old? Other than the SMU centennial version at the bookstore? He wants 17. The design your own linked from smumustangs.com is last year's.

thanks in advance

Interesting conversation

I was standing in the south end zone letting my kids run around in the 4th quarter and a player from Nichols State named AJ Carter (m) came up and asked if I was affiliated with the program. Not sure why he thought that, maybe the shirt and hat I had on. Whatever the reason, he was a big kid, 6'3 ...

I like the SWAT team idea. Or maybe free beer vendors roaming the stands ten minutes before kickoff.

Another thought, how about getting fans to sing Pony Battle Cry before the game, leaving Varsity to post game? That way you might get non-alums to actually make some noise and it is a lot more ...

Signed.

In our commitment to top 25, maybe we can bite off a small piece and get pre game right. The song, timing the team's entry onto the field, the whole thing was pretty weak. And how hard is it to think through something like feedback in the stadium context before you fire the system up on ...

I think you kill the background vocals. No offense to the ladies, but it gives the song a wimpy 50s feel to it.

don't make a fool out of yourself by criticizing music from other eras unless you were actually there to experience it especially when the roots of all the rock music you hear today ...
