Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread

Recommended Posts

Firing Bateman in his first year would be a failure by any definition, but if anybody could it spin, it’s aggy.

Looch might already be planting the seeds with “communication issues” between Bateman and Elko. I assume Elko is calling the defense, so Bateman is nothing more than a figurehead/extra body in recruiting. Firing him would accomplish very little other than giving TexAgs some red meat.

Well, let me stop you at non-gambler. These threads get derailed for cheese, so why not some gambling? Although, let me try to explain it in other terms. It’s not so much ridiculing his risk aversion, it’s ridiculing his fucking income to risk.

The point of gambling is thus:

A) To make money

B) The excitement of the risk 

C) Both A and B 

 

That fat slob makes millions of dollars, he’s not making any meaningful money (for him) playing $10 chips, and therefore there isn’t much of a rush for winning/losing. So he’s wasting his fucking time drinking free Coronas. If he doesn’t like gambling that much, fine, then why isn’t he doing something else like fucking game prep? or eating at a nice fucking restaurant, as clearly he likes fucking eating and boozing. 
 

He makes millions of dollars, we’d also ridicule him for dressing like a hobo, eating nothing but $1 Jack In The Crack tacos, driving a used pinto, etc. The guy is a John Daly/Matt Rhule level boozer and we’d also make fun of him for drinking a cosmopolitan. 
 

Signed, 

A guy who only plays $10 chips at $25 dollar tables. 

Right. So even if he goes on an amazing, historic run of Anti-Martingale betting at a $25 BlackJack table he’d hope to have a nice run in the $15-20k vicinity and that’s very rare. A good win that’s not outside the norms at that betting level is $5-10k. That’s a huge win for most folks but it’s different for a guy who makes $7mm/year.

I’ve seen people go on those runs but 99% of the time you’re losing that money. They don’t build the casinos by giving money away. The risk to wealth ratio makes this sort of a boring game. I’ve played lousy $1 tables with I’ve been downtown and it’s hard to actually care about it because you’re not going to win a lot even if you do well.

I used to play a lot of Blackjack. I went to Vegas a lot with a friend of mine. He sat down at a table with some old lady at the Golden Nugget. It was a $100 table but the lady was betting $10k minimum per hand. This goes on for a while until she losses maybe $100,000, gets up and leaves. My friend is just kinda shocked. When she leaves the dealer tell him that the lady is Ray Kroc’s widow.

Another 8-win season in the bag. They shall celebrate that they didn't get get that covered 7-loss season, hut they're so out of reach for that 9th win. 

Thank you, aggy, for being you. 

aggy is lucky they don’t play another 3-4 games, or they’d have a losing season!

Elko doesn't look like he's calling anything. He just walks around on the sideline looking either exasperated or dumbfounded.

At least he's always dressed like a millionaire. The white mumu with ol' Sarge never fails to impress.

8-4/5 is a losing season for blue bloods, but for bottom dwellers and plebs it's posted on their stadium and in their hall of shame for all recruits to see. 

Those are few that will bounces when a new offer comes in before they run. No QB can throw to few new Shiney so they hit that portal again 

Wash. Rinse, repeat.

Santa Schlub and Talking Thumb making a lot of sense here. 

It’s scary that even the aggy SEC homers are starting to see the light. I doubt it so t keep them from being overly optimistic about them preseason but hopefully they will at least be a bit more cautious about them during the season.

Like all good humor, the aggy roll coaster meme is grounded in truth. That truth is slowly coming through to the rest of the SEC masses
