We use to ride buses to and from games when I was at SMU. I don't remember being able to talk or hear on the way back to campus. The good ole days when I didn't have to be responsible.

Always anticipating defeat. Guess we need a 90-day supply of Zoloft mailed out with each season ticket order.

Yes Buckethead, there was generally several kegs on board those buses. I don't think many riders could talk or hear by the time we arrived back on campus, but they sure made a bee-line for the local bathroom when the bus parked back on campus :!: :lol: :lol:

You'd have a deal if it was a 90 day supply of Rebel Yell!

From Blog:

The Basketball Center we will built will be vital for the future of SMU basketball. The money raised will go to building a first class, $13 million dollar facility that will be state of the art! As importantly, the commitment of people to attend games is vital. We need to bring those Doc Hayes days back and fill Moody with the magic that was on The Hilltop years ago. It will happen!

HKS is one of my clients so I will be interested to hear more about it and who is working on it.

We will be lucky to win 15 games. I think there will be an early season increase in attendance, but that would only hold if the team got decent media coverage and won.

Expectations for attendance and performance should be very, very low for next year.

mrydel, I trust you are working on getting us choice seats in the new facility to view practices?

Do you want folding chair on the floor or bleachers?

If you get both we'll have all our bases covered. But I will defer.

Yep, you are correct. We'll pretty much suck but he's done a sh*tload in the time he's been here.

Now you are talking baseball. We do not have any seats for baseball.

I will probably just wait for renovation and get a luxury box for you to crash.

I just want to be fair to Doherty. I don't want everyone thinking that we're gonna make the tournament, but that's typical SMU thinking.
