WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!

 

if you want a good laugh, A&M is currently 24th in KenPom and 5th in the SEC behind Bama (3), Tennessee (5), Ark (19) and Kentucky (21) and just ahead of Auburn (26) - all with a SOS in the mid late 60s. currently 6-5 vs Q1, 4-1 vs Q2, 6-0 vs Q3 and 7-2 vs Q4

those 2 Q4 losses are really damn bad. if you want to know how good the B12 is this year, Texas has a total of 19 games played (11 wins) vs Q1 teams and A&M has a total of 11 games played. Texas has 8 games played vs Q3 and Q4, A&M has 15.

I bet 90% of state has no clue the UIL falls under the UT umbrella or care.  
 

aggy and their inferiority complex is hilarious .  I never had a reason to spend a lot of time in the Medical Center area in Houston until just recently due visits to MD Anderson and my wife’s treatment.  Thus I didn’t  know aggy had presence there until we drove down a couple of blocks from the bulk of the center and saw their building.    Can’t miss it because it has their athletic branding logo on the building .   The only thing missing from it is “Saw’em off.”    Imagine how they would be in an uproar if the UT BOR decided to put the Longhorn logo on all the UT properties in the area.      

1.  Didn't even feel the need to note its the "University of Texas MDAndeson Cancer Center."

2.  Hope your wife has gotten or is getting better.  I spent a lot of time playing cancer at MDAnderson.  Great docs and technology.  They cured me.

3.  I never noticed anything aggy in the medical center.  Therefore I conclude whatever it is is not noteworthy.

It's sitting next to the best cancer hospital in the world, courtesy of The University of Texas, so it isn't.

They think that makes them a blue blood program just like Michigan

The same Michigan that got housed by BDF little ol’ TCU?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣The last time aggy got involved in physics they helped propagate arguably the biggest scientific fraud of the 20th century. This will end well. 🤣🤣😌

From 8 May, only the A&M tritium results kept cold fusion afloat.

 In June 1990 an article in Science by science writer Gary Taubes destroyed the public credibility of the A&M tritium results when it accused its group leader John Bockris and one of his graduate students of spiking the cells with tritium.

They need a moron vaccine. 

they'd just keep being mediocre in life and blame it on the vaccine.  

There is no shot for curing Aggie.  If you're content to be average, marry a 170 pound woman, put the same crappy shit on the walls of your tract home, and be content in Chili's on Friday...there is no drug that's gonna cure what ails you.  The world needs complacent, slightly obese people.  They pave our roads, teach our kids, and make our queso.  A modicum of honor in that.  To the slightly above average Texan in all of us!

 In June 1990 an article in Science by science writer Gary Taubes destroyed the public credibility of the A&M tritium results when it accused its group leader John Bockris and one of his graduate students of spiking the cells with tritium.

Quote

Transmutation[edit]

In 1993, Bockris claimed to be experimenting with the transmutation of elements, specifically of base metals into gold. The scientist received a degree of media attention for these extraordinary claims, to the extent that other academics at Texas A&M felt that the institution's reputation was suffering from the connection to the discredited "science" of alchemy. An editorial by Mike Epstein in the Journal of Scientific Exploration describes what happened next:

A petition signed by 23 of the 28 distinguished professors at Texas A&M called on the university provost to strip Bockris of his title as distinguished professor. The petition follows a letter written by 11 full professors in the chemistry department (out of the department's 38 full professors) calling on Bockris to resign and remove the "shadow" he has cast over the department. The petition from the distinguished professors said "For a trained scientist to claim, or support anyone else's claim to have transmuted elements is difficult for us to believe and is no more acceptable than to claim to have invented a gravity shield, revived the dead or to be mining green cheese on the moon. We believe that Bockris' recent activities have made the terms 'Texas A&M' and 'Aggie' objects of derisive laughter throughout the world..."[15]

Epstein's conclusion, however, was a defense of academic freedom:[15]

"However, I would remind those who seek his ouster or demotion that their actions threaten the core of academic freedom. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, but no one should be punished for attempting to provide that proof".

The petition failed, and Dr. Bockris was eventually absolved by a four-professor panel of violating Texas A&M standards in proposing, conducting or reporting controversial research.[16]

In 1997, Bockris was awarded an Ig Nobel Prize in the field of Physics for his work in cold fusion and transmutation.[17] The awardee declined to accept the trophy in person.

They had to give it to somebody. The coach who should have won it looked like a tone deaf asshat subsequent to one of his players being charged with murder while another of his players delivered the weapon. 

I actually thought Oats had it in the bag because of that.

They've had it for over a hundred years and it is administered at fish camp. 

Pretty sure it is administered in the maternity ward shortly after birth. Or perhaps even administered via the mother during pregnancy term. They aren’t likely to take any chances the kids wise up before even making it to finishing school (a.k.a. Fish Camp).
