    Getting old sucks

    I type this getting ready for my 2nd rotator cuff surgery on Monday. I started lifting weight in '76 and have most of my life. It definitely hurts more/longer as you get older. Recovery time is much longer and unless your adding testosterone the weights get heavier. That being said, I wouldn't change anything. I had a 45th HS reunion a month ago and most of the guys were way out of shape and taking meds by the handful. Weightlifting/exercise has kept me from having to take any. My shoulders sound like I'm walking on gravel but I don't plan to stop. I'll just change what I do.
  2. I think this might be fake because he doesn't get lost on the way to the stadium and ask for directions. BYUcoug 1:06a, 10/12/23 Hello again Aggies, A few weeks back I hoped on here to ask advice before traveling from Utah to attend my first A&M game this past weekend versus Bama. I'm returning to say thank you! Thank you to the girl at Aggieland Outfitters where we picked up the A&M Bama gameday shirt for unexpectedly complimenting us on our BYU hats as we walked through the door. Thank you to the guy we talked to in line at Dixie Chicken who asked if I was the BYU fan who had posted on here. It was great to chat in line before we ordered. The burger was delicious and a great atmosphere. My buddy and I thoroughly enjoyed sitting back by the rattlesnake, eating, and watching all of you cheer on OU to beat the Longhorns. As we made our way to the stadium, I was really impressed how efficient 108,000+ people made their way into the stadium and to their seats. Same thing for exiting afterwards too. I ended up scoring some great seats from Mike1973 on this board. I was also super surprised season ticket holders can still get paper tickets! I really miss my BYU season tickets being paper as it makes for a good keepsake. These seats were in section 33 about 25 rows up and they were perfect! Thank you to the older gentleman I sat by. He was super friendly right from the start and we had great conversation throughout the game. Thank you to the 12th man! WOW! I definitely consider Lavell Edwards Stadium a hidden gem in the west of 64,000 sober Mormons yelling to make a great and underrated atmosphere but this was definitely the loudest football game I've ever been to! Also, the most unified fanbase I've ever seen and it didn't let up from start to finish! Very impressive and something I will never forget. I will tell everyone about the time I witnessed the A&M crowd bring Bama to NINE false starts! It was simply poetic to be a part of that. Kyle Field with its new layout almost feels like a basketball arena where the noise just gets trapped in. Love it!! Your band at halftime... beautiful! As for the actual games, I'm not even an A&M fan, though I'll definitely pull for you after this, but man even I was frustrated by the lack of a secondary coverage and some really poor choices and clock management down the stretch. The inability to score with three minutes left from the two was mind boggling! I so so wish to have seen A&M down only two with that crowd and three times outs. This is getting long but I really just want to express how much this experience meant to me to see first hand some state of Texas, SEC, big-time CBS, football. The few small areas I think BYU has you beat on is our mascot, Cosmo, who dances and pulls off stunts like no other, a Cougar Tail, which is an 18 inch maple bar served at games, and the 3rd to 4th quarter transition which at BYU includes Polynesian fire dancers (link below). I welcome you all to come check these out with me in Provo someday and later on when my young boys are older, I will DEFINITELY be coming back to a game at Kyle Field!! Good luck the rest of the season!
  3. I can already see their claim to fame; We've put more corps members in the NFL than all the military academies put together.
  4. Yes. I can see how this discipline would work out.
  5. LOL. I'm not sure about Sark either way. But I have no control over the situation. I went to games when DKR was coach so I've run the gamut of emotions. I could have picked Tom Herman who averaged 9 wins a year his first 6 years but would have been neg'd into oblivion. Predicting the future in something as complex as football is useless. 10 years ago if you said Bill Belichick was about to get fired at New England you would have been laughed out of the room.
  6. 8 wins is what Saban averaged in the first 10 years as a head coach. The first 8 years he averaged 7.
  7. Lol. I really got this ad from Walmart
  8. And you have to flap your arms.
  9. From SECRant: mrbroker Alabama Fan Sylacauga Alabama Member since Jul 2011 15989 posts Online Alabama 26 @ Texas A&M 20 Final - CBS - Survive and advancePosted on 10/7/23 at 7:12 pm to Flying DeLorean saw a bunch of TAMU fans doing the horns down to the TV. Are they taking a dig at UT when their team is playing Bama, or is there another meaning for that sign.
  10. Pretty sure a good WTF came out of the girl with the smiley face button.
  11. Who had the nitro tablets? Are you willing to share?
  12. I was kinda pulling for the kid until his smugness came out
  13. He's definitely on something!
  14. I learned a valuable lesson from my FIL. Feign deafness. If they think you can't hear them, they'll ask once then just wander off and bitch about you being deaf. Worked on my MIL and now my wife.

  16. Every time I think they can't get any more thin skinned or butt hurt, I'm proved wrong. Sankey is going to the RRR and selling out to the sips so they can move the SEC headquarters to Dallas! https://texags.com/forums/5/topics/3406657/1
  17. Until Bama beats them by 2 td's. Then it's "Them sips are lucky they played Bama before they got it all figured out. They'll lose by 5 td's if they play again".
  18. I'm thinking this.
  19. I figured out the best way to get out of "helping" around the house is do a crappy job of whatever requested. She gets mad and says "If you can't do it right, I'll do it myself".
  20. Or Two Fucking Dogs
  21. Click, click, click..........."I will feel a lot better if we can get by the Hogs and I believe we can beat Bama and the Mississippi teams, we will beat LSU. I see us winning the West I really do. This year is our best chance." https://texags.com/forums/5/topics/3405008
