  1. Well, almost every ball is catchable if the receiver flat lays out perfectly at just the right moment. You don't, however, want to count on that, because it's hard.
  2. Excuse me, but isn't that always true of A&M. And it's not a compliment. They stumble so close to self awareness. Come on Aggie, take that extra step. Just one more, and then you'll be free.
  3. I think Jerry could cement his legacy by trading Dak for Daniel Jones. As an added bonus, he could keep the corpse of Ezekiel Elliott as the starting RB. What a stoppable force those two would be,
  4. That's what happens when you play at the end of the season. The favorite has a full season's worth of data behind it. Also, A&M and Texas are rarely both on a roll when they play. Typically, one is up while the other is reverting to the median.
  5. It wasn't a perfect throw, but in my days as a receiver, it was what we'd consider catchable. Maybe 25% Ewers fault and 75% the receivers. But when it's 50% or more on the receiver, he gets the blame no matter how geometrically disorienting that 25% was. Cuz it's not exactly a walk in the park to throw the ball either. That said, Quin could use some improvement in consistency on deep throws.
  6. Hey, at least we're still better than the Giants. Probably. Maybe.
  7. That is true. And Quinn definitely has his moments. He's a good-to-very-good college quarterback, but not a great one. I kind of feel bad for him, because I don't think his resume necessarily translates into the draft status he wants. NFL scouts will note that he's (1) injury prone; (2) inconsistent with the deep ball; (3) inconsistent with his footwork (a real red flag); and (4) can evidence a certain passivity in the face of difficulties.
  8. Geez, the level of fetal position moaning in this thread is something else. What's the point of panicking on a Texas team that actually is capable of winning its last four games? Certainly the offense needs to be more consistent and play two good halves, but I'm riding with 11-1 and the SEC title game until another loss actually occurs.
  9. I like him, but he's having a historically bad game.
  10. He does seem to be playing himself down any future draft boards.
  11. Trust the process. It's taken us only decades to come within 38 points of Detroit. It also brought us the scintillating return of Ezekial Elliot's corpse and the fascinatingly dull enigma that is Dak Prescott. And senility can only help Jerry's judgement, right? 2057 is our year. Just wait!
  12. Spot on. Most fans would understand this as a year to keep their expectations in check. They were 7-6 last year, fired their coach in an epic contractual clusterfuck, and had heavy player turnover in the portal, losing more talent than they gained. So, it's probably a meh year where you simply enjoy it if they do better than that. But no... Every A&M hire, recruit and portal pick-up is a master stroke from the Elk, their latest greatest coaching hire ever. The Sleeping Giant... has hit the snooze button again. Dammit! Elko sucks! We need to find an even newer greatest coaching hire ever! One who comes here already squeezing his left nut.
  13. They may be some of the worst linemen in P4, but you forget the Aggie ace in the hole--they really get A&M. God help them.
  14. Well, if everyone says you're obviously not a Heisman candidate, that's early Heisman talk, isn't it?
  15. Isn't it just adorable (or as adorable as a mindlessly belligerent rodent gets) how they refer to THE STATION. Like it's some unfathomably happening VIBE capitol instead of a rancid slide of redneck nothing burger, which it most assuredly is. The fucking Station has never, ever been buzzing. Except maybe with flies.
  16. Because they took pity on you fucking weirdos and decided against treating you like what you really are--a fourth-class citizen nobody likes.
  17. Well, to be fair, Aggie is a destination. For Soviet style architecture aficionados, weirdos with a milkman fetish, toy soldiers, backward hobgoblins, people who like to build dangerous structures with logs, and those who want to be in a cult while pretending to be the greatest little fan-base ever. So, yeah, fuck the 12th man. He's a fucking loser.
  18. It already has been. This will simply embiggen it.
  19. Geez. We hired a baseball coach. These pathetic drama queens make it sound like we betrayed Christ.
  20. This is classic Aggie bullshit. The cheesy, high morality act combined with a total lack of perspective. It's fucking college baseball, not a war. Now, go play solider with the Corps and wave your sword indignantly in the general direction of Austin (if you know which direction that is).
  21. The only way to top this would be to buy Reveille and ship her off to lesbian Collie commune in Malibu.
  22. Blah, blah, blah, dethrone Texas, blah, blah, blah, THE state power, blah, blah, blah, Sleeping Giant, blah, blah, blah, Rich as Fuck, blah, blah, woof, woof.
  23. A&M is a dream job in every way but two: (1) You have to live there; and (2) you have to hang out with a bunch of fucking Aggies. College Station or Austin.... Hmmm... Doesn't seem that hard of a choice.
  24. Amazing how every new Aggie staff has a remarkable attention to detail until they're fired, at which point they were always a bunch of slacker losers, and the new staff has a remarkable attention to detail. Don't care, got the new guy. Aggie coaches--they're all great until they're not.
  25. I have never been involved in such a conversation. I have, however, had SEC fans ask me what's wrong with A&M. My personal favorite was an elderly lady who rather sheepishly asked "You're not like those Aggies, are you?" I assured her we were not.
