SETH.....THANKS ALOT
Just wanted to take a minute to tell you thanks for all the hard work you have put into this endeavor. I know that I have really enjoyed all the information you have passed onto all of us knuckleheads. Thanks for allowing us all to have a forum to express, argue, question and bleed red and black. Again, you and the entire Red Raider nation have made for an enjoyable summer and fall. From a personal standpoint your blog and the activities at Texas Tech have allowed me to share many great times with my two sons who are flying jets for Uncle Sam in the dirt of Afghanistan and Iraq.
As mentioned elsewhere, I have sent many TT hats to pilots around the world and they use the "Guns Up" on the tarmac. My best to you and all Red Raiders around the world. Peace to us all.

Yeah, thanks Seth.
I spend a lot of time reading this blog and others…CCM, 12th, BON, and I’m very proud of you and your success with this page. It’s very well written and commented upon. I sure have seen a surge in activity in the last couple of years! Congrats. Keep it up. Thanks to Tech92, djollie111, kayakyakr, and NM99, for your great work. Also for defending our honor on the other sites with class and honor.
Go Tech!!!

Seth is the man...
I honestly was never a big fan of message boards. Many thanks to Seth for putting together the best and most updated board. This site beats any Red Raider website so I thank Seth and all contributors for your honest and most relevant information.

I've tried really hard
not to make this a “message board” type of forum. Not that there’s anything wrong with message boards, but I think this place works a little bit better if we all contribute some serious content. I’ve always thought that there needed to be some place other than the pay sites to get your Texas Tech fix.

Thanks!
Seth,
You give this gruff-but-lovable Raider a connection to Lubbock that is hard to find here in SEC-land.
I have really enjoyed “watching” the games with you guys and feel re-connect to my once hometown from ‘82-’90. (It did not take that long to get through Tech, I went to CHS as well!)
Thanks for all you do!
Get better and remember: This, too, shall pass. (sorry!)

Thanks!, too
Seth, you have provided an outlet path for many fans, especially us Red Raider fans. Despite the trespasses made by those from other blogs (a&m, ut) the banter has been enlightening, funny-at times, encompassing, logical, illogical, whiney (ut?), smart, dumb (some really dumb), silly, happy, sad, and on and on. The thing is, we all have had this site, first and foremost, to go to for much of the information concerning our beloved red Raiders. The Tech Football site, the AJ, FtW, Dal….none can compare. Also, after visiting other blog sites, I must say that your site is the most comprehensive and savvy of them all. All those who contribute should be recognized. You have done a wonderful job of managing the site and we all feel very blessed to have you on our side. Keep up the good work. We are not done with the football season yet, and basketball is gathering speed. GO TECH! WRECK ’EM!

I also wanted to extend a Thank You. I’m on DTN multiple times throughout the day and enjoy all the content you and everyone else contributes. I would buy you a beer if I ever have the chance but since I know you’ve been battling with a stomach bug the past few days I’ll instead say that maybe a bottle of pepto bismol is in order. Get well soon!

Thanks Seth
Awesome Seth from a Raider from Dallas living in Mississippi since 1984. I have 2 sons(17 & 12 yrs.) and they are Raiders to the core. We have been able to see the OU win last year and the OSU win this year in person. Doubletnation has kept me even more up to date than I was and I try to sty up. So thanks again!

Thanks!
I appreciate all the time you have put into keeping this site up. I have been a reader for a year now and wouldn’t miss a day! Thank you for remembering to include other sports, i.e. Sally K’s success. I have copied many pictures and blogs to share with friends. I appreciate the links you give as well. Something that has become crystal clear, especially the last month or so, is that Red Raiders are full of pride for our athletes and are not afraid to be loud and proud!! Our arguments make sense, here and on other blogs and I have not seen any Red Raider that has stepped out of line on any blog, and I’m sure there are many that could blast some of the idiots that show up here and beyond. We are great fans!
Wreck ’em!!

Ask his wife
but, oh, he never sees her because he is on the computer, so she would not know. She tried to have him arrested when he entered the living room today because she did not recognize him and thought he was a burgler. Draw a card for “Get out of jail”, Seth..ha, ha ;-p

You do great work here, Seth
and I think you’ve assembled an excellent group of contributors, to boot. DTN has really grown and developed throughout this season, and you deserve all the credit in the world.

Ditto...
Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your time and effort on the site. I live in Austin area like TTpilk645 and everything here is reported with burnt orange glasses. Might explain the ‘imisswesttexas’ tag…
Really appreciate having a site to access info and get inside info on all things Tech. Thanks again for all of your hard work!
Go Tech!
