If we are not going to wear the blue jerseys,.....can I have one?
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

somebody told me the numbers on the new black jerseys
& the players shoes will be glow-in-the-dark & when the team runs
on to the field they will cut the lights like they do at NBA games
and all you will see is numbers & shoes...should be pretty cool looking
but to do this they may have to move the start times to 8 or 9PM
to make sure it is dark enough to work

So how do you pronounce this dude's name? :wink:
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

The Blue's remind me of the Buffalo Bills!

Why not use the "Harvard Crimson" and/or the "Yale Blue" and forget the Adidas multi-stripes all together?

How about just wear our whites home and away like the Pokes?

Kinda fitting for Dallas anyway!

BTW I'm still alive hanging on by my fingernails as socal incinerates around me!

they can wear whatever they want if we are winning. I frankly don't care. we can get back to other traditions after we have mastered the tradition of winning (again)
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally

I assume you are joking, but if not: stadium lights don't just turn on and off like the light in your bathroom. It takes a lot of time to turn them back on.

they got them back on fairly quickly at the SMU @ Ark game when the power went out.

there would be time to lead in from the dark with the SMU rap version of "For My City"
that would be cool to just have the big scoreboard on playing the video as the lights
slowly come back on and then do the National Anthem..it won't be every game.

ps: btw pay extra attention to the lyrics of "For My City" at the 1:52 mark

Hey HBPD glad to know you are still breathing. Great minds think alike use the true school colours (colors) and lose the stripes.
