  1. Yeah, but Old Dominion sounds like it might be tradition-laden, so they probably figured he checks the all-important "Gets Aggy" box. That, and being desperate, too. They actually seem to be convincing themselves they'll get an entirely new, SEC champion team out of the portal.
  2. Well, at least a real jihad, however misguided it may be, is based on something other than a football game combined with a deeply in the closet, homoerotic affinity for weirdos dressed up like milkmen. So, I don't know exactly what you'd call A&M's ongoing struggle with reality. Maybe a psychotic break? Decompensation? Tragically laughable?
  3. But what we don't understand is that Elko "gets A&M." (God help him.)
  4. That last parenthetical succinctly explains what is otherwise inexplicable.
  5. The Hall of Champions is my personal favorite. Although it really should have Jimbo's national championship plaque enshrined with the date now forever blank.
  6. Just clearing out the chaff so the gold can shine. Advantage Aggie... Texas A&M--84 years of just enough occasional semi-success to keep the witless rubes in line, keep fucking backwards hillbilly shit like Yell Practice alive, and have them pining for half-ass, pagan acts of arson that probably won't kill them in any given year.
  7. Maybe we can just agree that Aggie is the green bean of college football: utterly common, inexplicably nostalgic to older people, and ultimately failing to deliver a satisfactory experience to those partaking of them.
  8. Green beans are edible, but that's about as far as it goes. They are, however, about the most truthfully and unimaginatively named vegetable.
  9. BECUZ WERE RICH, AND A BLUE-BLOOD IN OUR OWN MINDS! EVERBODY WANTS TO PLAY AT TEXAS A&M (except for a lot of our current players who were never any good and we let experience the wonders of Aggyland out of the goodness of our heart). WOOP!!!
  10. He's actually making Lochlan look pretty good by comparison.
  11. My favorite part of Aggie in the fetal position is the constant mantra that they want only guys who really want to be Aggies. Good luck with that you fucking idiots.
  12. Loosely speaking, of course.
  13. Great Aggy quote: "So if you stay here you're getting a new position coach...if you transfer, you're getting a new position coach. That's why I don't get it." Seeing College Station in your rear view mirror is priceless for normal people. I knew a Physics PhD who taught two semesters at A&M. His verdict: "I'd have taught Kindergarten in Siberia to get out of there."
  14. That's 'Don't care, got Jimbo--Who?"
  15. Everybody should tell Aggy to fuck off and leave.
  16. I'm afraid I have to disagree. A monkey trying to fuck a football would be a pretty smooth operation by comparison.
  17. Are both teams really at less than 100 yards of offense at the half?
  18. Is Plummer rally this bad, or did someone drug him before the game?
  19. But I thought the Station was lit? How could such a happening place lose any staff to somewhere else?
  20. What does it mean to "have broken the football" in a winning season?
  21. They'll just have to double down the worship for M-Elk.
  22. Reminds me of a famous joke. Q: How many Aggies does it take to build a bonfire? A: It depends. How many are you looking to get rid of?
  23. I can easily imagine moving my family from BCS to almost anywhere else.
  24. Aggie would counter by just awarding themselves a bunch of titles from the 1880s and 1890s, under the logic that if they had played Yale or Princeton or Harvard, they would have won.
  25. Still legitimately counts, though. And I wouldn't call that Cotton Bowl a beat down. We actually outgained Notre Dame, held them scoreless in the 2nd half, and were close to a touchdown that would have brought us within one score before QB Eddie Phillips got hurt. 1977 (the 1978 Cotton Bowl) was the genuine beat down by Notre Dame. And anyway, 1970 will always be special for the annihilation of Arkansas in the Big Shootout II at the end of the season.
