Fake army fake band - https://www.lonestarlive.com/life/2024/12/texas-am-alumnus-accidentally-joins-band-says-they-pretended-to-play-for-4-years.html

 

some gems in that article..

Quote

In response, Juarez told users it was “easier than you’d think” since the band plays “military marching songs.” 

“The marching band is basically follow the leader,” Juarez said in a comment.

isn't that what we have been saying for decades?!!!

Quote

“Some of the band’s maneuvers — such as the four-way cross — are so complex that a computer says they can’t be done because they require two people to be in the same place at the same time,” the university states on its website.

* We had a receiver named Johnson* who scored a touchdown against Tech at Tech. He faced the endzone stands, did their guns up gesture then holstered the gun. That's it.

The ref through** a flag for taunting. We went to the Big 12 because players were not being penalized for doing the horns down. It was about whether or not to respect a school's hand sign. There is no rule specifying the horns down. The Big 12 ruled that no such negative gestures should be made.

Fuck the lying Aggies.***

Apparently aggy computers are as bad at logic as aggy is.  

Highly sophisticated software exists to program drill.  I have no doubt A&M doesn't use it, but that doesn't mean they're breaking the laws of physics.  Gah.

(Not arguing with you, NAIU.  Just venting/laughing.)

been at the in-laws for the last 5 days, and they're mostly aggy although some more than others. BiL is the hardcore one that usually has some thinly veiled comment about Sark or dildos. the others usually chime in when BiL gets it started.

well.

so far, i've seen zero aggy gear. nothing. not even a ball cap. no aggy gifts to each other. no talk about their "revenge" game. no talk about college football whatsoever. not even bomc themed discussions. in fact, they have no interest in any bowl games whatsoever much less playoffs.

fucking glorious. 🤘

 

Depending on how things work out, an idea for a lovely belated Christmas gift to each of your aggy in laws could be boxes containing peaches that are placed sitting on top of blankets of cotton.

Or a couple peaches and a handful of cotton balls in a bowl.

How in the world do "accidentally" join a band?

That's like going to a urinal and "accidentally" having your penis cut off?

 

 

At least there is a reason to be at a urinal in the first place.

Can’t think of a reason to be at aggy.

I believe it would be more like going to a urinal and "accidentally" finding a dick in your mouth. 

Advantage aggy.

That top stat….. jeeZUS!!!!

That’s amazing.  I can see how you can be a good program and not win a natty for decades but 10 years without a road win over a ranked opponent?  That can’t be real.  You’re gonna get lucky or stumble across an over ranked team at some point.  Apparently not.

Gotta play road games first.

Stole from old TexAgs post but....

The last time the Aggies won a true road game (NOT neutral-site) over a non-conference Power 5/6 opponent was…

8147 days ago....

2002: @ Pitt (W 14-12)

In their defense Texas only has two true road wins over blue blood top 10 ranked national championship within the last three seasons winning non-conference opponents in the last two seasons.

Yeah, and one is over 12 months ago. Glass houses.

Fucking. Brutal.

 

 

I absolutely love that we're the villains. Being the villain makes it much better when we win, so it ruins people's day.

We've got t-shirt fans all over the country and in Mexico if I'm not mistaken. A great many people want to see Texas good because it just feels we should be one of the teams almost always in the running. People wanted Alabama to come back. They're another national name. 

When we are good, we have people all over the country sporting the emblem. I don't think you see that for many other contenders. I think part of it is the elegance of the Longhorn emblem. Another part is that Texas really isn't tied to a specific region, so it's easy to feel included no matter where you're from.

Of course, people will pull for underdogs against us. Once we win an NC (that's natty for all the idiots who've never sniffed one in the audience), some will want to see us taknen down a notch: that's all just human nature.

The new variable is the horns down gesture. That could catch on. It does appeal to the negative side. On TV, you see (losing) fans from other teams giving the gesture as though it's a death ray gun that will have some sort of profound impact on Longhorn fans. It's weird.

I think the Aggies making a big deal about the Big 12 rule regarding hand gestures probably set this up in the SEC. The sips hate it when you do the horns down. They used their toxicity to create a rule against doing it.*

The Aggies would be congratulating themselves on having one of their lies work against Texas, but they won't admit it's  lie.

I don't like the widespread use of "hate" in sports. It was considered a very strong word for most of my life. Maybe that's changed. I always pull against the Aggies except in a few rare cases where they've been an underdog but were fighting hard. Maybe 4 times in my life. I don't hate them. I despise their weirdo culture that paints Texas as evil rather than simply a rival. And their turning sports into a holy war. And their constant lying about the past. Fuck, maybe I do hate them. But nobody else!


ETA

* We had a receiver named Johnson Davis who scored a touchdown against Tech at Tech. He faced the endzone stands, did their guns up gesture then holstered the gun. That's it.

The ref through threw a flag for taunting. We went to the Big 12 because players were not being penalized for doing the horns down. It was about whether or not to respect a school's hand sign. There is no rule specifying the horns down. The Big 12 ruled that no such negative gestures should be made.

Fuck the lying Aggies.

It's hilarious when aggys use the word "nattty" when they haven't won one in almost a century. But next year is the year. They swear by it. Remember that 10+ win team in 2012, and then it decreased to 9 wins, and then their mean at 8 the third year. Aggy thinks they're waking the sleeping giant and next year they're making the playoffs after beating an upgraded Auburn, LSU, Texas, and Florida. But don't let those 4 losses fool you; they'll be the first 4 loss team to make the CFP and win it all!!!

 

Also, T-shirt fans are great. It's like the Cowboys. Whether we're down or making the playoffs, we always have our supporters, whether they graduated from UT or not. 

Aggy t-shirt fans don't exist, apparently. All those hillbillies we see we they play just happen to be aggy graduates, which I can believe, because, well, it's aggy.

Mike Davis was fucking awesome. Stealing him from LSU, and he had a decent career here. He was misused a lot, but he worked hard and did his job. 
 

Imagine if he were on our team now. He would slay it.

Great. Old dorks.

The IBM PCjr was better.

 Great. Young dumbasses.

Z80 is a CPU. IBM PCJr is a computer model. Might as well compare the 427 V8 to a Cadillac... or an aggy to Princeton.

First, compare Z80 to 8088, and second, the 16-bit 8088 used on the PC was actually operationally slower than the 8-bit Z80... so, no, the PCJr was not "better" in any way other than aligning with the commercial reality of "yeah, it cost way too much and no, it didn't do exactly what we wanted, but hey, no one ever got fired for buying IBM."
