  1. I'm sure there's some deep and meaningful tradition associated with the sacred YMCA steps. Aggie would never do something pointless and stupid just because they always have, right?
  2. "...the best alternative offer came from ATM and they underestimated the psychological impact of living there." It is the heart of an immense, dimwitted darkness. "The horror... the horror..." Just have him join the fucking Corps and squeeze his left nut. I'm sure that will straighten him right up.
  3. While admitting my well-founded disdain for College Station, I'm not sure anything this side of a war and famine ravaged desert could make Lubbock look like paradise. I will give Lubbock this however--they've made a better town with less to start with than College Station, and they're largely realistic about the shortcomings of living there.
  4. Well, at least someone is. I.m willing to read some of this, but I'm certainly not willing to embrace it.
  5. There are 12 teams in the playoff. Eleven of them are destined to lose. We had our chances last night, but Ohio St. made a few more key plays. It happens. Still a good year overall. Props to Sark for making it this far. Thanks to the team, including Quinn. He may not have been everything we hoped for, but he was still pretty good.
  6. Don't they always? I remember some asshole saying the Big1 12 road runs through Lubbock (which, contrary to Mac Davis, is happiness in the rear view mirror).
  7. Flawed roster, flawed coaching. We're degenerating before our eyes. Kind of has a 60s and early 70s SWC vibe, when we played basketball not because we expected it to amount to anything, but because everyone else did and we more or less felt obligated. That kind of shit can't be tolerated anymore, and Terry will get fired after this year.
  8. Come on. After Charlie Strong, I can easily deal with this. We were shit on a shingle under Chuckles. Now we're a good team that has a few issues against Top 10 competition. The latter has hope, while the former did not. So we're not Saban's Alabama. Who is? If we get cratered by Ohio St., at least we'll be in good company.
  9. I'll give ASU that. Their quarterback is one squirrely SOB at evading the rush.
  10. Unfortunately, I think we have six versions of tripping over our own dicks in the playbook.
  11. Yeah, it's going to get ugly if our offense decides to go MIA for two quarters in that one.
  12. Sooner or later, fucking around on offense like we do will cost you.
  13. Yeah, it's nothing particularly special in the inland valley, but I'd still take that over BCS.
  14. I live in California. There is no way I would spend any four years of my life in Bryan/College Station, let alone those from 18 to 22. As my father said about his freshman year at A&M: "The choice was simple--blow the escape valve to Austin or spend the rest of my life knowing I was pathetic."
  15. They didn't lose. They never lose. They just ran out of time... and dignity, and self-respect, and their psychosis meds. Anyone got a fucking horse laugh? Chiffity, chiffity, chiff-chaff! Riff-raff! Chiff-chaff! What a bunch of idiots.
  16. Sadly, though, deaths from collapsing structures then being at two events, it would probably just become the latest Aggie tradition.
  17. Yeah, like the SEC would have turned down Texas and Oklahoma. You didn't let Texas in the SEC, Aggies. The SEC let you know your place.
  18. A big part of the Aggie weirdness is the belief that their "culture" is elite. That's why they can't deal with the reality of their mediocrity. The truth is that all of their vaunted traditions are just psycho-sexual hand me downs from the fucking weirdos who populated A&M when it was an all-male institution. Forget Sul Ross. They should have a statue of John Wayne Gacy.
  19. "He's a good kid that wanted it to work out at Tech badly." So, he's just not very bright, huh? I guess I'll be charitable and call him geographically naive. Does that NIL include the cost of therapy sessions for being at College Station?
  20. Well, Norman is close to being the garden spot of fucking Oklahoma. My kids have never been to Oklahoma, but they all know the answer to this: "Why doesn't Texas fall into the Gulf of Mexico?" BECAUSE OKLAHOMA SUCKS! Simple truths, man, simple truths.
  21. Spot fucking on. Tech is a "never was and never will be." I grew up in West Texas, and there is no way on God's green Earth (which doesn't include Lubbock, at least for the green part) I would have gone to Tech, True stories: 1. My freshman year at UT, Sport's Illustrated named Tech the "Campus most resembling a Federal Penitentiary." 2. My kids were raised in the California Bay Area. Whenever they complained about something, I used to tell them "Look, Daddy was raised in a post-Apocalyptic industrial wasteland. I don't want to hear it."
  22. Well, in all fairness, not visiting College Station probably does increase their chances with a recruit.
  23. "For decades now we've kept our program in good enough shape most years to qualify for the elite." ???????? In what universe is that statement true?
  24. It's A&M, remember? They're not gone. They just ran out of fucks to give.
