BREAKING NEWS: Rick Villarreal <3 TYSports 4eva!!1!!1!

For anyone who hasn't yet had a chance to listen... check out the latest GoMeanGreen.com Barbershop Podcast. Do it now. And make sure you fast forward to 58:07.

Why? Because Rick Villarreal is apparently among the growing legions in the TYSports fan club, the Dick Joke Armey. We call you all the DJA for short.

For anyone who doesn't want to listen, here's the verbatim from our favorite silver fox, Rick Villarreal himself:

"The last thing I want to say is... Y'know, I guess maybe I shouldn't bring this up because some people won't know... But Quoner and your group, y'know, with the pictures- I think it's pretty funny. To be honest with you, it might be a little strange, but it's funny. But it doesn't matter what your opinion is, just stay involved with the Mean Green."

So there you have it: Even Rick Villarreal himself loves Sexytime! and the TYSports universe! He loves us, he thinks we're funny (even if he apparently thinks that I'm just some nameless lapdog lackey for TY), and it's probably just a matter of time before you're all watching Kansas State take on North Texas at TYSports Stadium at beautiful Eagle Point in Denton, Texas, America. We'll see you there in 2010! But hopefully our complimentary luxury box will have tinted glass, so that you can't see us.

Now that TYSports in general and Sexytime! in particular have been discussed in a public interview by a Division 1 Athletics Director, I believe we can safely and honestly make the claim that:

TYSports is the official* snarky weblog of Mean Green athletics, Rick Villarreal, and the University of North Texas. *- (not official)


And now that we have a candid and first-hand admission that Rick Villarreal is a regular reader (perhaps even using us as his homepage?) of the TYSports blog, allow me to make a humble direct appeal: Stop reading our website. Stop right now. Close the browser, pick up the phone, and get us a new stadium.

I know, I know... we're hilarious. But Rick- you MUST stop reading, for the good of the Mean Green Nation. You've got a lot of responsibility resting on those sexy, sexy shoulders of yours. You can come back once we've broken ground on a new stadium. I promise, the hilarity will still be here when you've realized the stadium goal.

Now go. Just go... Turn around, don't look back, and walk away from TYSports.

But do it slow. And try to work those hips a little as you go.

...and now I need another cold shower.
