I thought you were going to ask if they had bought the tarp with people images on it so they could put in a couple of sections and it would look like we had some people there. :lol:

Worst time possible. Worst conference team possible. And it is at home where everybody knows we have a crushingly bad attendance record. You say it is the only game that fits that slot and nothing can be done...maybe, but that is a lot of decisions that went the worst way possible for SMU and it seems to happen that way more often than not.

I'll see what I can do. But like the football team, I'm not going to get real excited about it anyway.

Will take some time as we are also getting ones for all sections outside of the 35 yard lines...

Hey I'm not crazy about this start time either and how it effects a very bright spot of our program The Blvd. But it is what it is, so instead of complaining about it, complaining about how bad attendance will be, complaining about everything possible, how about focusing on we are going for our 7th win this season and if we win we are in a bowl game for the third year in a row. I can think of much worse situations we have been in over the last 20 years. This could be the last game many of us can attend this year, so lets make the most of it and enjoy one more time something we all love which is SMU Football.

These are items that will probably be on our Blvd menu that morning:

Have to leave Little Rock around 4:30am. May be tough to get to this one guys. Thanksgiving airfares are over $300 and I would be late getting to kickoff. I may be done until basketball season at Ozonas.

Wow we sure get really crappy times... those temporary lights were pretty useless... sorry for the alumni who had to pay for them... probably will be with my family watching the game...I can only imagine the devastation with our attendance. Im predicting 10k. Students are out of town, going to see big 12 games (like UT and AM), seeing family out of state... its going to be bad. Even students I heard said that our last home game was navy....

Going to have to see what I can figure out. Thursday is Thanksgiving in Dumba$$, Ar with the in laws. Then Friday is Thanksgiving in Sherwood with the local kids. That knocks me out of going down on Friday. I will have to see what I can come up with.

More than the game I hate it because it is Senior day. I like to thank the kids that have been our team for the past 4/5 years.
