    I read that Noem stuff about the dog and goat this morning.  What a complete asshole.   


    This might make her more attractive in Trump's eyes, but it kills her in the eyes of the national electorate. Because we'll excuse the murder of 21 Mexican Americans at a Wal-Mart, but nobody, not even MAGA folks, can stomach killing a good boy.

    Also, Twitter is having a field day.

    I don't think The Return to Junction is a conscious choice. It's just one of the three Ur-myths of Aggiedom that they constantly return to in their futile attempts to fathom reality.

    Most fans of even good teams know that, when all is said and done, it's just a football team and will have its ups and downs. But the Aggie football team is the repository for their collective sense of self. Sort of like an incompetent, hick Borg cube that strikes fear in the hearts of no one. So they are always seen though the lens of one of three Ur-myths.

    1. The Flagship - When they have an okay run, they are THE program in Texas, always have been, and you better believe the sleeping giant has awakened.

    2. Fucking Sips - When they are in a slump, everything is somehow the fault of Texas, the Sauron of mass media and the bringer of all things evil in life. (Note: can momentarily includes some co-font of evil if another program is denying them their rightful place in the sun, but they will always return to their North Star of hatred--Texas.)

    3. The Junction Boys - When they are momentarily exhausted and can't face up to any more of their own futility, they're off amassing a lunch-pail collection of blue collar, tough, tough, TOUGH, fire-breathing junkyard dogs that soooooooooo fucking get A&M they are going to be unstoppable under Coach (Fill in the Blank). Fear the sleeping giant, you fucking sips!

    The transitions can also be quite abrupt. For example, they often start a season as The Flagship, end it as Fucking Sips, then whipsaw back into The Junction Boys.

    The 2%ers can't take over that shit hole soon enough.

     

     

    This was an insightful post. Brilliant analysis.

    Is that Shane Gillis' family?

    Which one is Uncle Danny? I see several who have to be making grilled cheese sandwiches at night.


    The butch lesbian in front on the right reminds me of a girl I used to work with at Waldenbooks who told me she's not a vegetarian but only eats the flesh of animals that don't dream.

    Couldn't have Elko, you know motivated Foster to practice? Its one thing to have a slow or bad player, another to reward a locker room cancer with praise or attention, but to have a dude motivated more by throwing rocks over football to be a big coaching red flag, nah they are aggies eveyrone that transfers hurt their little egos so good riddance to them lol.


    Elko should have just gone Junction Boys/Bear Bryant on Foster's ass.  Bear Bryant was perhaps the greatest coach of all time and clearly Foster was crying out for help. Foster could have been a high first round draft choice and needed a strong father figure to instill some discipline.

    I am not quite sure he has an actual strategy.


    Oh yeah? Maybe his strategy is to milk about 24 million dollars from A&M over the next 3-4 years while doing as little as possible, live like a Buddhist pauper, retire at the age of 50 with all that money, buy an RV, then live the life of the bohemian artist he has always longed to be,  going hither and yon, writing in his journals, and doing cowboy poetry recitations. After all, the big cowboy poetry roundup is held every year in Elko, Nevada.  Coincidence? I think not.
