  1. Yes. Of course. The world is watching to see who does better. The part of the world that's in College Station, Bryan. and the burbs of Houston. The remora and the shark are not joined at the hip. Yes, we had a real shot when 800 pound gorilla fled to the SEC. A&M made the Big 12 so hard. Hell, we beat them in 98 when they won their last championship. Twenty-five years ago.
  2. Olin seeks to humble the Longhorns by comparing our program and big games to other SEC school's programs and big games. Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, Florida all get mentioned as examples that rival or best Texas. He couldn't find a single thing that he could claim for A&M. Nothing. Zero. No big rivalry game that anybody cares about. No achievements to crow about. Only reflected and stolen glory. Pathetic.
  3. They may have been trying to rush him away but he is very heavy and maybe resisting them. It didn't take long for them to shield him. Admittedly, it didn't look like they had the A-team there. Negged for lying! Just kidding. Thanks for responding.
  4. Anti-republic party members don't do comedy well or irony at all.
  5. I've sensed a shift in Incredulity's tone and thinking over the last several months. Perhaps, like other former GOPs here, he's seeing that his party is not what he thought it was. I read the first post about what would behoove Biden as suggesting Biden was involved. I thought about it, and it could also be real advice on stamping out rumors and lunatic theories. His next post supports that. Please neg me if I'm wrong, Incredulity, or set me straight.
  6. And as a key point of pride. They never lose a half-time (nobody keeps score) and they yell louder than everbody else (nobody cares). You can believe the above claims because they have an honor code that forbids lying.
  7. It's an assassinated ear. Memes seem appropriate. Further, failed assassination attempts are relatively tame events in the context of the wave of mass shootings we're enjoying these last few years. Putting on a profoundly disapproving face because this murder attempt is something special seems dishonest. He is the leader of the party of stochastic terrorism and has literally encouraged his followers to act with violence. He's not a Kennedy or Gerald Ford or even Ronald Reagan. They all filled the role of president without calling political opponents and journalists "enemies of the state." I'm ambivalent about the outcome Saturday. I'm being honest. I don't exactly wish for an assassin, but I do have some sense of poetic justice. What will this POS do to his political opponents if elected? He's a wild dog leading a pack of wild dogs.
  8. I'm bringing this post up from days ago. @FartingMonk's post should never be forgotten.
  9. Pain. I've lost two friends and a doctor to suicide. I'm medicated (perfectly) for depression. When you're down in a trough, you can't imagine ever leaving it or having ever been happy. When you're out of the trough, you can't imagine why you were ever in a trough. I rode a largely manageable rollercoaster. My friends had deeper, darker troughs. Despair is pain. You want out. Both of my friends were the nicest people you'd want to meet. Smart. Fun. Caring. They went down that hole and never came back up. I almost never talk about them because it seems cheap to drag out their stories. You can't find or give the full dimensions of anyone's life. It usually seems foolish to me to try.
  10. If they could get Reagan back as their useful idiot frontman, they'd have already destroyed the republic. It started with that smiley motherfucker and Rush Limbaugh. The former was the avuncular face stretched across the malice represented by the latter. As you can see, I object to the naivete of that cartoon.
  11. Mealy mouthed journalism, as usual: It's clearly a reference to the rally as you can see by the quote later on. Write what you see and know then own it. This is part mealy-mouthedness and template writing. We were so much better off with reporters who had never gone to college.
  12. Who wouldn't? I begin to wonder if Hugo Boss will be the undoing of Western Democracy. I do prefer our battle dress uniform from the time. It looks like business.
  13. At last! Donny has a little girth in an extremity.
  14. Olin, the great Satan Slayer who rode bravely to the school to the west, has outdone himself in the field of obscurity. 1 That sure clears up the headline. Nice job, Olin. 2 You see he was "eating" and his play showed that he wasn't on a diet. So, he was playing fairly well, get it? 3 There can be no doubt that this article will help in that endeavor.
  15. They are really relying on having a great season to close these deals. They could be 2-2 going into the Arkansas game with losses to ND and Florida (on the road and Aggie is terrible on the road for some reason) and wins over McNeese State and Bowling Green. They talk about Arkansas being difficult for us but seem to think it will be easy for them. Last year they touted Bobby Petrino as a dangerous OC. I have no idea about the Arkansas talent level (I suspect it's dismal) but they do get up to play Texas teams and go full jihad when they play us. Arkansas could be a huge game for them if they stumble in at 2-2. They would already be stinking of death. Being .500 would already be raising doubts. Being .400 with wins over McNeese St and BGreen would overwhelm the Negative Recruiting thread. If they beat Florida and Arkansas (neither would be prestigious) and are sitting at 4-1, they could be in good shape, I think. I just don't see it, but I'm a terrible prognosticator. I guess I'm in a musing mood since the season is getting close. The internet is a sweet place when we're doing well and they're struggling to get to their 8 win mark. Hook 'Em!
  16. Again, @Brisketexan & @TwiceHorn. thanks for the illumination.
  17. Fuck. A new thread on regular TexAgs. Somebody put the catnip in some Tupperware for the love of all that is sacred. Above, @Longhornfrenzy shows their objection to the notion that they were ever bullied. Let me break this down for you, Ags. Howdy right back at ya, by the way. Saban says Texas will likely be in the championship game and describes us as another strong arrogant program like many in the SEC. He laughs at the people saying Texas will run the SEC. He. Laughs. At. The. People. Saying. Texas. Will. Run. The. SEC. That's you, dumbass, not Texas. They're whole narrative is how we're bullies who drove them out of the Big12. We're the Destroyer of Worlds. We're toxic! They're really good at cognitive dissonance. It's the only cognition the redasses seem capable of.
  18. The only reason they can't be overlooked nationally is that their brand is self-immolition. I've seen the below verbatim before. Cut and paste parroting. A new creative low. One last note about another oft repeated reason for the definition of the Modern Era: If he got in and out of A&M from 91 to 94, he had a great run while in school. If he took the usual five years, they lost his senior year and it's been a goddamn nightmare for them ever since. We beat them badly in every victory starting in 2000 (of course, no sane person would use the turn of a century as a mark). The only close victory for Texas was tearing their hearts out on the last play of our last game. No chanting SECSECSEC for you! Their paltry 3 victories were by 5, 8, and 7. But hey, comparable. HOWDY!
  19. Couldn't agree more. That she alienated cast mates is irrelevant to the sad probabilities of sexual harrassment and outright assault. Me Too opened the hell out of my eyes. It's hard to say you're a civilized country if 1 of 4 women will undergo some form of sexual assault.
  20. There's truth to what you say, but she alienated cast mates at every turn. Still, I hate speaking ill of someone who was put through so much.
  21. I'm no apologist for the cops, but if I were using two hands to climb and my head peeked over the roofline to see that a guy with an AR-14 had noticed me, I would slide back down that ladder or just leap to the ground. The smell of shit would be notable. It was probably hot on that roof, so the cops decided they could guard it from the ground. Then, on the ground, they start grab-assing and checking out the MAGA skanks and lose track of what they're supposed to be doing. Nobody's gonna climb up on that hot roof. Nice AR that guy's carrying. Wonder where he got it.
  22. I think the death of irony for the masses may be one of the key fatal ingredients to the republic's demise: The above are normal tourists. No odd behavior here.
  23. He raced to the basement security bunker in the White House when a peaceful demonstration was going. Of course, it was BLM which means Black people and people who support Black people's right to not be killed by the police were present. He's a chickenshit. His presence of mind to show bravado, while impressive, is in no way an indicator of Cadet Bonespurs' courage.
