This isn't exactly breaking news. Is Native ever happy?

Looks happy enough to me...

I think it was Frisky who claims to have traced back through IP address, etc, and confirmed Native was not Mac. I've always tthought Native was Wendell Barnhouse, former designated TCU hater at the Star Telegram.

Also, the only other thing that is a recurring them with Native is how much better Baylor is at everything, although I can't imagine how this could relate to Baylor unless they are getting hammered by the NCAA or something.

2 legitimate inquiries:

1 - Ron, what makes you 90% certain? I think that would be sweet, but I seriously doubt we would trash/expand/reinvest in the current scoreboard after just one season, during which the stadium wasn't even fully operational.

Because an insider on another TCU message board brought up the same question regarding the new jumbotron.

I don't know if I believe we are getting a bigger one, because the timing would appear to be ridiculous, but I think that's what GF's talking about

Hell, I don't know

I work with one of Mac's best friends. I know it's hard to believe he has friends, but he does. Also, Top has said before that Mac is not Native. People just thought that because Native tries to make his posts sound like Mac's columns.

That's enough for me. I found it highly improbable all along, but the persistence with which poster here refer to Native as Mac finally made me curious enough to ask.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure Native is a real TCU fan and regular poster on here, who has created another handle and just likes messing with us. He commonly references things that only a real TCU fan would know, like things that were brought up at Patterson luncheons and what not.

The reason he always brings up Baylor is because he knows Baylor is a particularly sensitive subject for TCU fans, so it's the easiest way to get under our skin.

I don't think that Native is Native either. I think Native is a regular poster's guilty pleasure just to jack with all of us. Kind of like Steel and Frognosticator. Native just hasn't yet forgotten to change his sign in yet and outed himself.

You're probably right, which is why he sucks so bad. What kind of loser would do that? How is that fun?

I'll never get it.

It's Mac. Sorry guys

And Bingo was his name-o.

even if it's not mac.... it's still fun to pretend it is... hating mac is almost as much fun as hating craig james

[froginaustin]

I think it was Frisky who claims to have traced back through IP address, etc, and confirmed Native was not Mac. . . ..

This. I'm way too computer dumb to even try to find the thread, but I have a distinct memory of this being true.

Or dementia is creeping up on me.

On baylorfans.com there used to be a poster named "NativeBear" (may still post there; not sure) that played much the same role on that board, as "NativeFrog" plays on this one. Mebbe the same person; mebbe one is an inspiration for the other; can't really say.

Steel is most-definitely real. I've seen him before, and his boots.

I know we like to hate on Mac, but give him credit... He just stuck up for TCU on ESPN.

Watch ESPNU, right before the roundtable discussion.

Says the "drug bust" was just really blown out of proportion and there was a very minuscule amount that was even sold. Says the police report was fishy. Went on to say he'd be surprised if people thought this was even a problem anymore.

[El Froggo]

Why would they be expanding the east side right at the end of season ticket sales? And if they offer those seats to wait-list buyers, wouldn't that piss off some of those who had had priority picks and didn't get a shot at those seats?

Disagree that it "makes a lot of sense." Makes no sense at all.

Ron, I couldn't agree with you more. Ron Swanson always knows what's up.

[hometown frog]

well in the FoxSW special that aired tonight, Gary himself says that we need a bigger scoreboard and that 'maybe that will be my next project' as they were standing on his balcony reviewing the stadium.

So maybe GF is on to something.
