When I was a youth and going with the family from Dallas to visit family in SETX, we’d always stop in Fairfield for dinner. I think the BBQ stop was called Sam’s. Anyways, they always had like a “store” around the checkout area that sold aggy joke books. I always got the newest addition and I’d read it to my parents and the laughter ensued. Even the “cartoon” drawings were funny. Man I wish that I still had a couple of those. Talking late ‘70s.

Hook’em!!!

We used to drive from Mexia to Fairfield to eat at Sam’s so…..culture?

Seriously here’s another one.

In this one they rank quarterbacks. 

you can’t make this shit up.

I'm pretty sure I heard yesterday that Vegas has Ewers and Beck tied at the top of the Heisman list.  But sure, let's consider this other list.

I can understand bias.  Hell, I can understand bad takes or sunshine pumping.  But I'm not sure I've ever seen anything as ridiculous as aggy ranking their helmet 1st under any consideration.

Ranking Ewers as a 3rd tier QB is even worse.

LOL.  Did anyone take the time to read it?  It's funny.  It kind of reminded me of a conversation I had with my dad about the Cowboys circa 1987.  The Cowboys were terrible but they just drafted Everett Gay, a WR from Texas.  (I think that was his name.)  So, anyway, in my 10 year-old naivety, I tried to convince him that IF,

Everett ended up being good AND Herschel Walker was as advertised AND we could find another DE AND MIke Sherrard recovers from an injury AND Danny Noonan ended up being a stopper in the interior of the DL AND the OL improved just a bit AND etc, etc., we just might make the playoffs.

CSB alert: Went with a group of half UT/half Baylor friends to the Baylor game at Casey Floyd in 1988 and Everett Gay was catching passes in warm ups with one hand.  Around halftime a blue norther came through and the temperature dropped about 40 degrees.  Watched the rest of the game from a hotel bar. Might have been the only time I ever left a game early under any condition (including the '96 Missouri football game/wet t-shirt contest at DKR) but I didn't want to hitchhike home.

Also, TexAgs is rife with the "if" and "if" combo for success.

Strong vibes of this guy

As a Texans fan, he gives me strong Bill O'Brien and Kevin Malone vibes. Hopefully they make him their duel AD/HC and the program goes even further down than where it is now. That's hard to do but aggy can do it.

That was me leaving Rout 66.  My then-wife looked at me at halftime and said "give me the damn keys".  I was either gonna walk 4 miles home in that heat or take the ride and watch the rest of that shitshow on TV.

Shit - forgot about these.  My uncle was a true dumbass ag, so he gifted us a few of these in the 80s.  Wonder if I can dig them up in my parents' basement somewhere?

Did he get a commission and serve? If so, I’ll give him a pass. If not, he’s a furry.

This.  If you actually go beyond the college BS and serve, then fine.  If this is all window dressing and pseudo-fraternity gomer shit, fuck right off.  Nobody gives a shit that you "got your boots" or whatever shit they do.  

Case in point - so my kid is going to AR and ROTC.  atm was initially high on his list (bunch of friends were going there).  We visited and the fucking corps are what turned him away.  This is a kid WANTING to go into the ROTC.  He wants to serve.....not act/look like someone that serves....which is how he described them

See ags, this is the problem.  On paper, the Challenger-17 is a good thing.  It's a yearly tribute to the fallen astronauts that perished on the Challenger.  But then you gay it up with all your turd bullshit, and these pics come out the other side.  Why the hell are you posing self aggrandizing pics for some rub & tug corps bullshit you and your group participated in?

NASA tribute

All time self ownage by Billy boy here 
 
 

Yes, but Billy Boy hasn’t realized that us playing them, on the road, brings down our SOS. And aggy ain’t in the “Top Half” that he mentions.

Hook’em!!!

I don't get it. I thought the SEC was murderer's row top to bottom, according to aggy, and that we couldn't possibly handle the week-to-week grind. But now we're lucky to have such an easy SEC slate, and so it's terribly unfair to all other teams that we've been gifted this patsy schedule. Pretzel logic indeed.
