USF vs. Pitt

[NersEllenson]

I was very close to working for Cuban down in Deep Ellum (sp?) a number of years ago, but my wife was pregnant and didn't want to go down there.  I'm pals with Greg McElroy of the Cowboys as well (his son is the starting QB at Alabama)...we go back a number of years.  Great Dallas guy to know if you get a chance....so if you need a job down there, right back at you.   


I agree, this team is doing very well.  I've been excited and pleased, this is why I don't get your point that I'm somehow against Buzz or against MU's success.  You couldn't be further from the truth.  My basketball IQ?  That's just silly talk, but whatever.  I thought my questions about the recruit were legit, but it's odd that when some people ask those questions then there is no issue, while others are questioned.  Whatever.

And you did mention DePaul as well as Pitt...I'm not changing the facts at all.   We sure as hell better beat DePaul and in my opinion, we should beat Pitt as well.  You can't have it both ways.  As well as this team is playing and coached, we should win both those games at home.  It would be disappointing not to.

Peace

Nice to hear you have some ties to the Dallas-area, and yes, you are right about Deep Ellum.  I assume you were going to work with Yahoo, on some level?  Sounds like you have enough of a network here to get a job if needed - you really should get out of the oppressive economy of California.  So much easier to raise a family and make a living here, and have enough or a lot left over to take nice vacations.

As for my comments about DePaul, I didn't paraphrase or quote anything you'd written in that post I made, they were more made in response to the Dano dude who posted above me.  I'll take back the basketball IQ comment, but I do at times think there is some disingenuous-ness in some of your posts - and that they do have a degree of passive-agressiveness.  Maybe I've read between the lines completely wrong, but everyone here knows you are a huge Tom Crean fan..and have been at best very, very slow or cautious to warm to Buzz...yet you do make a token comment here or there expressing that you like Buzz.  Probably splitting hairs..but I'm just so far on the Buzz bandwagon - that I react a little too strong to anything I perceive as negative toward Buzz.  Fair enough.
Peace.
