UNT Football & August 2010 for Aztecskin

Above: Hope

I checked my recent posts and realized I haven't updated in nearly a month. Whoa.

It has been a crazy week, no?

Let's recap shall we?




Saturday was UNT's home opener.

Went to that. Was fun. We lost. Bummer.

I cannot wait for the new stadium. Fouts sucks ass. If you sit in the endzone seating, you are nine miles away. If you sit in the student section, the sun eats your soul. If you sit in the alumni-donor section, you deal with crippling old people smell combined with all-knowing drunkenness.

There are a few good sightlines though ... if you are walking back from the concession stand.

Just after Dunbar scored 4yd TD

It was nice to see everyone stay longer than one half. I mean both the fans and the team. Every first game at Fouts has been fucking depressing the last five years. This one -- wait for it-- was actually entertaining. Good timing, too. It is kind of hard to complain when you are getting in for free. Now that I actually pay cash money to get in to that decrepit thing, I'd like some value for my dollars. So I am pleased with that.

I still can't wait for the new stadium though. I like end-zone seating because it gives you the coaching film view (or EA Sports NCAA Football view in my case). Awesome.

Birthday: 

My birthday was actually last weekend. Best story of the night? My friend falling asleep in the bushes near the rec center, getting woken up at four a.m. and stumbling home. How in the hell did I let him do that? Well, after the bars closed we headed for food. He headed for a lady friend's house. On the way there he took a nap. Totally not my fault.


Indoor Soccer

So far on the season we are 1-1. I have two shots on goal to my name, and two misses. Not impressed? Yeah, neither is one dude on the team. Not only with me, but with anyone who is not him. Dude pulled  a Chad Ochocinco/TO in our last game and bounced with a minute left.

I don't suck. I just aint good. I've said before that soccer is a recent hobby for me. So the intricacies of ball handling are not within my grasp. Or my kick or whatever. I did have a pretty sweet ass half bicycle kick. Call it a unicycle kick.

Cowboys:

I said it on twitter.

NFL:

Dude. Arian Foster is a beast.

College Football: 

Dude. LaMichael James is a beast.



Also, Denard Robinson is a beast.
