Sorry guys...

Postby ReedFrawg » Mon Sep 17, 2007 9:03 am

...tough loss to swallow. With our lackluster performance on Thursday night, I'm having a very tough time getting excited about the game on Saturday. I couldn't talk smack if I wanted to. It's really amazing how football seems less important when you're losing - at least I keep telling myself it's just a game and isn't important. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the short (or long I suppose) trip over to Fort Worth. Good luck with the HC search.

You are going so you can appreciate how wonderful Ford is compared with Amon Carter. And how beautiful the SMU women are compared to the TCU cow pokes.

If you are going to watch a football game, then I suggest you immediately seek mental health therapy.
Just send 'da money.

I must respectfully disagree...I enjoy the older stadiums over the perfect-looking new parks. Doesn't matter if its baseball or football...I like to have that sense of history that you get in an old stadium. You just don't get it in the new stadiums where everything seems sterile and symmetrical. (Disclaimer: I do think Ford is a cool place to watch a game...this is just my personal preference in general.) And I think there are plenty of good looking women on both sides of the metroplex.

How depressing the smack has gotten. Instead of bragging about our teams, we now argue over stadiums and eye candy. Next we will get into a big pillow fight over which school has the best Gay and Lesbian department.

How I long for a winning program.

I won't make the trip to Ft. Worth this year. I can't stand going to Amon Carter. Though a trip to Kincaid's is calling me. I think I will enjoy the game on the big screen and play, whose coach is gonna get fired. Think about the situation Fatterson finds himself in. Lose back to back to your one true rival, and start the season 1-3 and you have gone from Top 25 to a team that is going to be hard pressed to stay above .500.

We lose and PB is finally toast. Either way, I am happy.

As far as press boxes go, there's absolutely no comparison.

Comparing GJFord's press box to the one at Amon Carter is like comparing a modern luxury sedan to an Edsel. Theirs is attractive, in a nostaligic, yesteryear kind of way, but relatively useless.

It's also pretty hazardous to your health, if you don't watch your step .... and there's nothing like the view of a game from 18 stories above the field. Rich and Craig are really working for their money on trips to FW, as the radio booth is around the 15-yard line.

Sad but true...clearly, though, you certainly have the best Gay and Lesbian Department though.

Of course I would have to concede to your clear understanding of the quality of both departments as I have neither experience nor understanding of either department. It does appear that you have vast experience when it comes to evaluating Gay and Lesbian departments.

Sorry, best I can do since my team sucks.

And yes, as predicted, we have degenerated into which school has the best Gay and Lesbian department. This is getting very sad.

Snap out of it. You've been spoiled by your recent success. Believed the hype that the Frogs were ready to play in a BCS bowl, did you? You guys can still go 10-2 and beat BYU and Utah - not to mention taking the skillet back.

We wish we had your "problems"

I hope we kick your arses. All I have left is hope. Certainly no expectations.
