Darth says...Hubba Hubba! and with that Darth signs off on this most glorious of SMU days in over 20 years.

AMAZING article from JJT!



Really amazing. Read it and weep. Weep for joy!!! What I loved the most was this line -

JJT wrote:It's all officially irrelevant now. Finally, we're moving forward.




That's amazing. DMN calling SMU "we". Especially and unequivocally from JJT who's university just lost in the National Championship game.



The "we" speaks volumes. Hello relevancy!!!


Hello, indeed.

Thad, you were on a roll last night. I would take a couple of Advil and eat something greasy before you head in to work.

I enjoyed reading the article.

Just goes to show that when we have something to write about, folks will write about it.

Thanks DMN for the excellent coverage. And I might add it looks like a lot of work was done on the trifecta of articles from the writers. The comments from Mouse were insightful.

Definately the most important quote in that article --

JJT wrote:So let's put a moratorium on all death penalty talk. We all know SMU is 54-147-3 since then with only one winning season.


He's talking to us too. :wink:
