Larry Brown = awful.
No joke. I feel sorry for Rich. He knows now that what little Larry Brown has in his bag is football related so he has to go there for like 12 segments so it turns into a crappier version of ESPN radio. Everyone should be back at full strength soon right?
Cowboys training camp starts this week, so I'm guessing all vacations are over.
I guessed wrong. Ben and Skin today.
I think Hardline is back on Wednesday from San antonioI think the worst news I heard is that the daily cowboys press conference is at 3 each day. So much for the best segment(s) of the day....
This is a disaster.

How does KCTK not realized what a bad time decision that is. I gotta think they could coordinate with the Cowboys to change it. Hell, 4 o'clock would be fine, even 3:30. Right after WTDS and then Cowboys. You would then get about 45 mins of just the Hardline.
 
And yes, Larry Brown is terrible. I actually switched over to GAC (Grandpa Urine was on vacation) the other day as he and **** Hicks were reading a list.

 
Random thoughts on Ticket Radio:

Larry Brown is still horrible.

Bob Sturm is getting really good with all things Cowboy pre-game, and the fact that he can carry Brown just adds to that.

Love the fact that Babe is back with Brad for play by play. Charlie Waters makes Larry Brown look good.

I don't get to hear BAD radio often, but listening today, and I love the fact that Bob has fell in love with all things Kige.

 
Just FYI I'm sort of getting an interest level for a local DFW FFA league.

Basic parameters

$25-$50 to cover draft/site fees and some prizes for 1-2

10 or 12 teams, but 10 participants at an absolute minimum.

Try to keep to mainly FFA types, but if stretched some B&M or Shark Pool guys also

Those expressing at least enough interest via PM to respond to me were:

DiscoStu

NigelT

DTMules

Doughboydeluxe

BigTex

texasyankee

pgreenfan

Saints-Man

I'm not totally sure who else lives around here.

I sort of get the feel that for the most part this group is pretty spread out. We might have to meet in the mid-cities sixflags area some weeknight to pull this off.

Yeah, one of the things I hoped was to sucker these guys in. And of course with my horrible math calculations I now realize only two weeks are left to the season. Not much time to get all the logistics straightened out.
 
Honky Kong? Does Mudhouse live here?

Yeah, not much time left. Especially considering Labor Day weekend is in there.

:popcorn: I still think it's gonna be tough rounding up everyone from so far away. I don't know if there are enough in the greater dallas area to just say lets do something up in the addison complex or what.

I'm not sure if I can be anything other than a game time decision. This new baby doesn't allow me to plan ahead very much. :)
Dude, you don't know how good you have it. At least he stays where you put him at this point. Though I hear that loud and clear.

I'm out Wednesday and Thursday 9/5 and 9/6, but I'm good any other time. Enough time to try and coordinate something for this week or this weekend? I'm out Thursday this week, but I'm open the rest of the days. Or we could always draft Friday or Saturday after the Colts/Saints game Thursday and before all the Sunday games.
 
I'm pretty much assuming this week is gonna be too soon. And over the weekends is always tough.

I'd say right now next Tuesday looks to be the early favorite.

- Currently, I have a business trip back to New Orleans from Wed thru Sunday. However, it may be postponed. If so, I am available all days.

I have my google maps, so I can go anywhere in the city. Whether I will find it or not is a different question. :fishing:

The other thing is that maybe we can draft after the first week in the season. Play weeks 2-14(13 games), playoffs week 15-16. It would give us a little more time to set things up. Just a suggestion.
 
Next Tuesday works for me. I'm in the Keller area, but can travel anywhere in the Metroplex. Would also be willing to work a phone for anyone (Nigel) who might not be able to make it, but wants to draft.

 
Just found out I have another draft on Tuesday, but its just a Yahoo draft, I can either auto-draft it, or if we are somewhere with the Innerwebs, I could share those results for comic relief as they come down.

 
Ok, well from my end it's pretty much next Tuesday or nothing, but we are still needing some sort of location to pull this off that works too.

Should we try to find one of the BWW specials?
That'd be cool. :boxing:
They have one in Grapevine that might be centrally located depending on where everyone is coming from. Not sure if they are still offering the promotion or not.

:goodposting:
Buffalo Wild Wings was offering a deal for fantasy football leagues where you get $100 towards food if you have your draft there. Not sure if they are still offering the deal or not.
 
Grapevine BBW is a good location. Easy to get to....free web access...

Does someone have a list of all who might be involved? Is it 10 team? 12 team?

I like the idea of a redraft but am just throwing it out there.

Don't know if Bone Daddy's has free web, but that's a possibility as well.
 
I'll sort of gather the names here and start an ***official*** thread later today and spam some more PMs. If we can get somewhere with innernets at least we can get in some people online if we have to to make it work.

 
Unfortunately, something has come up and I will not be able to make it next week. Please let me know if you ever decided to cornhole.

 
Didn't listen to the Ticket today, but saw a little news blurb about a Dallas musician being shot to death. I did a little Google search and it turns out it was Danny's roommate and Sorta member, Carter Albrecht. Did they mention this at all today?

Link to story.

I didn't listen much today, but Danny didn't seem to be there when I did.

At 5:10 I tuned in and Rhyner made mention that "we know the events of the day, but do not feel right discussing them out here at SMU. We will discuss them tommorow."I was wondering what it was, and now that makes sense. They went right into Entertainment News For You, but no Danny was heard from.

Sad day.

You gotta just feel horrible for Danny. He looses his best friend, roommate, and the driving force behind Sorta. While each guy in the band is excellent in their own right, they were only going as far as Carter got them. This definitely shatters that Rock Star Dream for those guys. Life changing day for Danny. I just hope he doesn't decide to do something stupid like bailing on The Ticket.
