  1. We just going to all sit here and act like 1990 UH didn't happen huh? I mean i was drunk and all, but im pretty sure i remember being called an idiot.
  2. This is just more evidence that aggy gets more enjoyment from Texas losing than it does winning themselves. It's worse than that, it's not even Texas losing - we still could/should/would beat Stanford and go to the CWS . No, they would be happy losing as long if we were slightly annoyed and inconvenienced.
  3. They certainly have experience in not showing up for a game (Bowl game v WF). One more time and its a tradition.
  4. 1. OU was not very good, after Texas did its typical early and late years mack brown embarrassment in Dallas, OU lost to ND, barely beat a shitty WV team, 50-49, and needed overtime to beat okie st at home 51-48 (notice high scoring games). 2. SEC was not ready for big 12 offenses. It is no coincidence that Aggy and Missouri's best years were those first years. 3. Aggy barely beat both La tech (in a high scoring game) and Old miss by 3. The same Old miss team that got boat raced by Texas and pre-concussion David ash by 35 just a couple of weeks earlier 66-31. 4. Aggy has never (at least since electricity was invented) succeeded at doing what they need to do. In the height of their Fed Ex years, they couldn't even close the deal on a perfect season. Why? because they tied a 1-9-1 SMU team. No one saw it of course, because they were banned from TV and bowls. 4a. To further illustrate their lack of being able to get the job done, just look 12 months earlier when Texas Herped / Derped our way to a win @ College Station in perhaps the most important game (to the aggy's) they had had in 50 years.. 5. Who would have beaten them? Kansas St went 11-2, Texas went 9-4, Ok state and baylor went 8-5. Someone would have jumped up at got them. I'm not saying 2012 aggy wasn't a good football team. They clearly were. I'll even grant they may have had a chance to win the big 12. But it is revisionist history to say they would have rolled through the Big 12. Its nonsense. Aggy gonna aggy and they would have fucked it up.
  5. Wrong / trump gif The idea that they would have rolled through the big 12, that understood how to stop that offense is just aggy level revisionist thinking.
  6. In football I hate OU more and its not even close. Being in Houston, i have to deal with 1000x more aggys than I do OU people. So they annoy me more than OU fans do day in and day out, if that is a rival then okay, sure they are a rival.
  7. Agreed. There is real movement up only when Fed shows they are going to hold /lower rates. Crazy that with other currencies they are all breaking highs, but the dollar is so strong its keeping prices down. I guess we are the best horse at the glue factory. Krugerrands are great, low premiums, any place will take them. Nothing wrong with stacking them at all. Its still a top seller world wide. And the 50 peso coins are great, and in Texas can also sell them anywhere. Plus they look really cool.
  8. So we are off the highs of $2050.00 and back down to 1950ish. And with the debt ceiling / spending can kicked down the road, i think we will see more pressure on price for the next few weeks. i dont think we will see 1850, but i think 1900 is possible. I kept my powder dry over the last couple of months with the price increasing - so will be buying a little heavier than normal over the next couple of weeks. I'm usually wrong - so keep that in mind.
  9. How can we be arrogant and have an inferiority complex?
  10. Man, that dude should have taken Yale up on the offer in 2017. Life is about choices. And saying no to Yale and ending up at Aggy is a choice.
  11. FFS aggy, just be what you are. A regional diploma mill with a shit load of students and a good bit of money for athletics. Try being the best at that before worrying about what others are doing.
  12. I've been to a few night games at alabama, those hillbillies are pretty wild at night. It will be fun.
  13. The front office may or may not work out or win big, but it is nice to see adults in the room making rational decisions.
  14. Neither Murphy nor Ewers will be here next year at this time. 2023 Ewers 2024 spring - murphy transfers to power 5 2024 manning 2025 manning 2026 The stud Sark gets in 2025 class.
  15. I think I have only finished 1 or 2 episodes this season. Its biggest sin is that it’s boring.
  16. My largest customer has the Rivian truck, we were just talking about it yesterday and he loves it. Not just the electric part of it. He thinks it is well thought out and done well. This is a guy that has a wide variety of vehicles (from a 991 gt3 to big MB suv) to choose from each morning that are all pretty cool. I always see him in the rivian.
  17. For fuck's sake people.
  18. ConfidentAg is going to lose his AgTag for accurate and rational posting.
  19. As bernorange says, both have a full 1oz of gold, the eagles have an additional 3% silver and 5% copper. So the eagles are actually heavier than buffalos. You have to be a little more careful with the buffalos, they ding pretty easily and should keep them in individual containers, where the eagles you can stack in tubes. Both are super liquid, up till about a year ago, buffalos actually had a bit of a premium over the eagles when buying, but that seems to have evened out. If you live in the US, which i'm sure most of us do, there is no issues with either when time to sell. If you live somewhere else, lots of countries have taxes on 22k gold vs 24k - so eagles may not be the best choice if you are going to sell in England for example. There are tax advantages in the US for the eagles and buffalos. Mainly, if you sell over 25oz of coins, there is no requirement for the coin shop to fill out a 1099 on the transaction. However, if you had 25 1oz Canadian maple leafs for example, the IRS would know and you would have capital gains tax stuff to deal with. EDIT: i guess i should add, if you sell the 25 eagles/buffalos you still have a capital gains tax event, you are just left on your own to fill out all the paperwork on the honor system.
  20. It's almost as if Sark put Arch behind the freshman Oline, and didn't give him cook vs a walk-on on purpose. Hmmm.
  21. The only time i worry too much about the price is if i am buying more than my monthly plan. Say on a 15% dip Of course most of my gold was lost in an unfortunate boating accident, so i barely have any now. Edit: Not to say i dont care about price, i just mean that if i am just buying one 1oz Gold Eagle, searching all over Houston to save 20 bucks is not a major factor.
