Let's provide a stage where they can regroup.

Ya know, there are some great things in this thread. Funny. Topical. Non topical. I open it to the first new post. I usually respond to something then I get to the bottom of the page I started on: Fuck! I was only gone for an hour or so. It's great and demoralizing at the same time. No way I have time to read through that even if I skip the easy to spot Chili's nonsense (excepting the Washington Crossing the Delaware bit of genius). Nothing to be done about it. I just wanted to whine for a bit. Carry on.

I guess they didn't interfere with any governmental function which is the new no-fault Treason of the 21st Century.

Hard to beat find solid rational thinking: After the irrelevant, knee-jerk opening, we get to the logic. A. Good stuff will happen after a loss to Texas. B. I say this because good stuff happened in another sport after we defeated Texas. C. Therefore we will have our most talented roster ever should we lose to Texas.

Barbies vote!

So, you think you're some kind of psychologist or anthropologist?

Fuck you. I've been captivated since Safety Not Guaranteed, a good little movie.

It's that hilarious thing some do when a stupid subject comes up. You see, it's hysterically funny to keep talking it about for pages then referring to it in other contexts. I'm busting a gut here.

I was thinking last week about how they view the sports media. Any observation is interpreted purely in emotional terms. Sportscaster 1 hates us. He said we were over-rated. He's an idiot. Sportscaster 2 said we were real contenders. He's always been the best, and he loves us. People outside of Texas generally don't have any feelings about the Texas A&M Aggies at all. When they make news through good play or weird traditions, they get a moment in the sun and then it passes. Nobody has a vendetta against them, nor has anyone seen the light of how glorious Aggie is. Nobody cares that much. They can't live with that. Every other fan base is able to deal with that.

Yea! Let's see how many of those teams could have withstood the wrath of a senior-laden Bowling Green team. And South Carolina would be a top team if they were in the SEC just like Bowling Green would be right in the middle. I like the TexAgs who won't even consider that maybe they were wrong about how good this team would be/is. They just had a bad day against S. Carolina. Texas was just exposed against Georgia. We never had a good half, oh wait, we won the second half instead of being shut out by an unranked team. Our defense never surrendered. And we all think it sucked rather than finding partial victory in a thorough beating. Guess what, Aggies. Texas is better than Bowling Green and S. Carolina and Notre Dame. I find the atmosphere in Fayetteville much more potentially daunting than Kyle Field. Listen to the realists that you've accidentally let in.

These guys mating, nut squeezing, or humping it or what?

@deech I do, my friend. We have loser mentality among some of our fans. Some of those guys just enjoy being pessimists. However, it's not a cult trait obeyed by all. We have many clear thinkers and observers.

Ahhh, the football board. A&M's offense will be smothered by our defense. There will be sacks and likely turnovers as well as good field position despite their excellent punter. Our OL will win some of the battles with their DL. Even on the plays where we don't, their DL is undisciplined at gap control. Quinn will be a few more weeks from his injury and the jury will be in on whether he is ruined or back to standard. If he isn't, it's Arch. Last game of the season, he should be ready to takeover. I don't think the totality of the Aggie defense (they're better than I thought they'd be) can deal with our powerful TE and all the receivers we flood the field with. It's not a sure win by any means. But we'll be rightfully favored.

No. I don't know how that would impact my premise in general. Our QBs objectively played poorly that game. I don't think bad ref calls impacted the outcome. Thanks for bringing it up and brightening everyone's day.

This message is a common one after an Aggie loss. The copium of aloofness: ETA Maybe this will become an Aggie Snappy Answers post.

My boy has Texas A&M written all over him. I'd find all of that money remarkably distracting. If your motivation is flagging at all, think of all the daydreams about how you could live your life. Paying a coach $20MM a year is just crazy unless maybe it was Saban six years ago.

I think Reed looks good. His receivers helped him, but that's football. Also, their receivers are solid at making the catches. I suppose separation is still their failing. Their defensive line seems to play to make the highlight reel. No discipline. Elko's pillar culture: maybe a little shaky. ETA Also, default blaming the QB and refs is the perennial mark of the loser.

They are remarkably consistent in getting the larger media world to notice them and believe they're finally going to amount to something then embarrassing themselves and whomever says "keep an eye on those Aggies. Coach [fill in blank] has them heading in the right direction." Last night was epic Aggie. They weren't plucky. Their personal fouls made them unlikeable. They handed the mantle of up and comer to USCe. Beamer is the coach of the moment. Elko is a fat, puzzled looking entity on the sidelines. Square one, Aggies. You hadn't played anyone and your weren't playing anyone special. You got crushed. Your coach looked like a fool going for it on two fourth downs. Nobody cares about your self-vaunted win streak and place at the top of the SEC. It wasn't going to last. Everybody knew it. Oh, and I think South Carolina's stadium easily matches the atmosphere at Kyle except they look like they're having fun rather than obeying orders. We're coming.

It took four posts for them to turn the Lagway injury thread into the usual parrot chorus screeching about tu. Written before their destruction by SCarolina: We're so lucky that both of A&M's qbs are back-ups! Otherwise, they'd beat us. Fullproof Aggie excuse that is, as usual, not foolproof. See gif above. Yea. Why didn't Elko do that? It's so obvious. Shoulda been in the defensive gameplan. Duh. Don't know who wrote what's grayed, but I think Elko had been reading TexAgs while huffing his own farts. Absurd overconfidence (I guess after they beat all those seniors at Bowling Green). Elko wanted to make a statement, which he did. Just not the statement he was hoping to make. Maybe didn't cost them the game, but they were disasters in terms field position and momentum. Keeper of the flame: Yes, sir. That ol' SEC grind is eating you up. Soon, you'll be SEC-ready, we're all sure of it. In August, you had the best QB room in the SEC with a Heisman hopeful. Twice this season you've thought one of your QBs was unstoppable.

Korea forever!

He turned a mob loose on the Capitol. He stole and distributed state secrets. He pressured a foreign leader to help him defame a political opponent. He is a constant liar. He is an idiot. But if he says "retard" it's all over for him. Idiot World

And being mocked by someone who merely lurks.

Interesting Thread on Texags with just a whiff of pathology from Seven Costanza: There was an example about Ole Miss then this guy opens the Toxic Texas file for the vintage stuff: Ebil. We ebil.
