So they are right. They are doing better in the SEC than the BIG XII.

yep the johnny football outlier and the 3 absolute gimmies(instead of 2) is getting them to 65% winning percentage.  the extra guaranteed win will get them to 60%  7-6 in bad years and 9-4 in good years.

It will be funny if someone takes them down in their bowl this year

Aggy can’t wait to kill them like the national guard.

Oh, come on. The National Guard is a legitimate military organization. Never degrade a legitimate military organization with aggys. 

Your comment should read “aggy can’t wait to surrender to them like aggys are wont to do.”

Has the National Guard ever killed anyone by stacking logs? Advantage aggy.

Technically, it was the un-stacking of the logs that squashed those poor aggys like bugs, but I get your point.

If aggys had the balls to teach the actual history of their school, aggys would know that at half time during A&M's first ever football game in 1894, the aggys were losing so badly at half time, they quit and decided not to come out and play the second half. They have been cursed since their very first game.

This seems to contradict the whole all male school for however many years of it's existence..  Because by 1894, they could only field a football team of all pussies.

Those kids died because there is a deep-seated sickness throughout aggy culture that elevates blind obedience to "tradition" above the best interests of those on the aggy campus.

The primary responsibility of those in charge of the aggy students was the safety and welfare of the students, not the ignorant and slavish following of "tradition." The university administrators were negligent in their responsibilities and twelve kids were needlessly squashed like bugs and their skulls were crushed. And not a single aggy administrator was ever held accountable. Not one. A complete and shameful lack of accountability from the drunken idiots who did a shitty job of stacking those logs and who killed their classmates, all the way up to the highest level of idiots redneck administrator who rightfully should never be able to sleep at night again.

Those kids didn't die for any cause. If they died for a cause, aggy culture would have been reformed to value human life and to respect the contributions of individuals in society. Those kids were turned into complete wastes of human life because the aggy cultural sickness that rationalizes reckless behavior and complete irresponsibility. And every aggy is just fine with the fact the lives of twelve students were completely wasted.

They will be just fine with a 7-6 record because a million bucks per victory over crummy football programs is money well spent to somebody who dropped hundreds of millions on their Super Kroger's.

Daughters friend convinced her to consider going there. We went, took the tour, daughter thought it was ugly. I didn't disagree. 

If she would have loved it, I would have written the check. So glad the place looks Soviet.

[dcar00 14342]

only time I went to aggy dead dog field was 1995.  got a ticket outside from what looked like an new army type , took off my sweatshirt to reveal Texas shirt, he was pissed. Ticket was dead middle of aggy red ass old army lower deck 20 yard line.  me and one other guy a row in front of me a few seats over were the only Horns in the section.

Game starts and I start asking about the "cheers" to the aggy around me. of course they corrected me saying "yells" but I keep asking what does this cheer mean or that cheer mean, what are you doing now, where are the girl cheerleaders, doing the swaying with em, etc.

of course I can tell we are going to kick there ass and they are going to be pissed.  me and the other guy keep nodding our heads every time ricky or james would do something. at halftime this old couple turns to me and says "you are the nicest t-sipper we've ever met".

we win. Last SWC championship.  students rush the field, corp turds start "protecting the sacred astroturf".  Old couple turns to me and starts yelling at me about how ugly we are, no one is allowed on the sacred field, etc.  me and the other guy walk out with the horns up with the old couple hollering at us.  It was glorious.  I only regret I wasn't there in 2011.  Would have been an unbelievable 2 game mic drop.

Aggie is weird (secrant) by Cardboard Boxer:

"Not really, its just putting yourself in another person's shoes is beyond the capacity of many of yall.

Imagine if your team wasn't so great, and hadn't won a national title in your lifetime. Imagine your team was stuck in a conference so obscure that national football fans regularly confuse you with smaller programs in your state, and if you are lucky you get one ESPN article about your season every three years or so. Imagine no one even hates you because that would mean caring about you at all.

Then all of a sudden your team changes conferences, and for about the exact same level of success you always have had suddenly everyone nationally knows who your team is, and fans of programs with actual major success that would have confused your team with Texas Tech ten years ago now can't wait to come to a web forum after a big game to talk down to you.

You know how many OU fans were excited to talk down to us after 0-77? None.

You know how many fans even in the Big 12 wanted to talk about how we sucked on the field rather than get all into how army or not army our corps is? None.

Every day yall hate on us yall validate every decision we have made since conference realignment. That whole move was about becoming relevant and we are now."

"Look, man.... We were a bad to mediocre team that got zero national exposure. But now? Now we get to be bad to mediocre on the big stage. Game, set, checkmate."

Really, as a fan of a program, do folks really want to pay current ticket prices to see these crap teams at the Tackle Box?  It's a big outlay of cash for a family of four for tix, $12 beers, $10 hotdogs, etc.  As a consumer, seems like at some point you vote with your pocket book and quit going.

Except that aggy don't buy tickets to watch football, they buy tickets to saw varsity's horns off. Once they've "humped it" in the 3rd quarter, they go home.

I mean, really, those billboards that say "HOMES FROM THE $200s" might as well say "SI, SE HABLA AGGIE"

I can just imagine what the initial conversation between an Aggie couple and a realtor is like. 

Realtor: "So tell me what you're looking for."

Aggie: "Welp it's got to be big, it oughta be the biggest house on the street."

Aggie wife: "It should definitely be enormous, like 4000 square feet, with at least ten bedrooms."

Realtor: "Uh.... OK, and bathrooms?"

Aggie wife: "I mean, I guess one?"

Aggie: "THE HOUSE HAS GOTTA BE BRICK!"

Aggie wife: "Oh yeah it's gotta be brick."

Realtor: "What about a pool?"

Aggie: "Pools are for faggots."

Realtor: "Well, OK, cross that off, it's just that I sold a few houses to Longhorn graduates recently and those homes have pools so I thought--"

Aggie (interrupting): "IT'S GOTTA HAVE A HUGE FUCKIN' POOL! THE BIGGEST POOL ON THE BLOCK."

Aggie wife: "Can we make sure it's in one of those neighborhoods that only has Aggies in it? I mean good folks like me and Taylor. You know. You know what I'm getting at, folks just like us. EXACTLY like us, down to the smallest detail, like the kind of flowers they plant and the kind of car they drive and their skin color."

Realtor (shrugging): "Yeah, sure, OK, whatever you say. I see you have three kids, are schools important?"

Aggie: "What does school have to do with anything?

Aggie wife: "Well as long as the school has got a lot of students in it, that proves how good it is. Just make sure we zone to a really packed school."

Realtor: "That makes as much sense as anything else you've told me. What's your budget?"

Aggie: "TEN BILLION DOLLARS, IF WE WANT IT WE'LL BUY IT, IF WE BUY IT WE'LL PAY DOUBLE FOR IT JUST TO PROVE WE CAN! I GOT A MASTERCARD AND A VISA!"

Aggie wife: "Yes, that, exactly."

Realtor: "Terrific. Welcome to Manor! I hope you'll be really happy here."

Kellen looks sad:

[Randolph Duke 4034]

In November 2015, Texas A&M announced a capital campaign drive with the goal of raising $4B. Money credited to this campaign would include all monies raised by The Association of Former Students, the Texas A&M Foundation (the entity that holds the aggy system's privately funded endowments), the 12th Man Foundation (the aggy athletics fund raising arm) and the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library Foundation.

How the aggys could, in good faith, consider monies raised by the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library as being donated to Texas A&M University escapes me, but we all know much of what aggys do has nothing to do with honesty or integrity.

As of September 30, 2019 (the target date for the capital campaign), the aggys were roughly $350 million short of their goal, having raised $3.67B. From the time the capital campaign started in 2015 until it ended in 2019, the net financial position of the Texas A&M System increased from $5.68B to $6.59B, a difference of $0.91B. That a group of individuals could raise $3.67B and only increase the wealth of the institution by less than $1B is something only an aggy could accomplish.

Meanwhile, the UT alumni were quiet and not conducting any capital campaign.

While the aggys were acting like the rednecks they are, flexing their branch college "financial muscles," donations to the UT Long Term Fund, the system's privately funded endowments completely unrelated to the $31B University of Texas state funded endowment, increased from $7.161 in 2015 to $11.4B today, a difference of more than $4.2B.

So, while the aggys were trying their best to raise $4B and falling short, UT was just doing what UT does and received over $4.2B in privately funded endowments. The added $4.2B is over four times the entire privately funded endowments of the Texas A&M System and eight times the privately funded endowment of Texas A&M College Station campus.

If The University of Texas were to lose the PUF and the university lands, UT would still rank 8th in the nation in endowments, just ahead of The University of Michigan (still ahead of the Univ of Cal System, Notre Dame, Rice, Duke, etc). Texas A&M would fall to 101st, just below the University of Tulsa (and 16 spots below Texas Tech).

Sometimes the aggy jokes just write themselves.

Poor aggy...totally despised in the secsec Sec:

 

“A&M seriously doesn’t belong in the conference. I’m sorry but East Texas isn’t the South. Missouri you too. Both of y’all need to be ran out of town. Go back to playing Kansas schools, and Iowa’s and every other team in Texas. You’re just not welcome in the real south and quite frankly your school has some embarrassing traditions. Even yalls bragging points are lame. 12th man? Sorry but it’s not that significant. The boy soldier club and all the weird gay stuff just really alienates y’all from the rest of the conference. No one likes you.”
