  1. Not to mention the ACC is one the BUGs favorite poaching grounds.
  2. I love the fact the SEC leadership, along with all the schools, knew it was best not to bother bringing aggy in on these meetings. No intelligent discussion to be had with aggy, so best to leave aggy in the dark...
  3. Did not want the SEC. But aggy is making it easy to warm up to the move.
  4. aggy got their fairy veto wings vetoed.... Yep kiddo, that there deputy badge is made of real genuine recycled plastic.
  5. Poooorrrrrrr agggyyyyyy
  6. I would like to see the breakdown of the survey. 360 respondents but only 20% Presidents, 30% ADs and 21 commissioners makes the 61% of the P5 favor breaking away seem a little suspect. Is the 61% based only on the 65 p5 schools commissioners, presidents, and ADs? If so, is it based on the 20%, 30%, 66% average? To me 100% p5 commissioners would vote yes. 90% of P5 ADs would vote yes. 75% of Presidents (probably much higher seeing most mutlischool collaborations extend way outside conference members anymore) would vote yes.
  7. Let's all go full aggy. Let's leave this conference because it sucks.... Not that we suck suck so let's go suck even more somewhere else. It sucks so bad? Why? Because the purple wizard made us his bitch? Because the horned frogs have a really good reason to be horny when we are up next. Okie lite? Baylor? Tech? Iowas St. Is a threat every time we play. We need better p5 OOCS!!! Why? Because losing to EVERYONE ELSE'S favorite p5 ooc isn't enough? Kansas didn't even realize it was okay for a BB school to beat a P5 FB school during football season because it had been that long. Getting owned by another "Kansas" *cough* Maryland isn't enough? I hate to really say it, but we are a big part of the suck in the Big 12 over the last decade. Don't even get me started on OU... The worse OU team in recent history and we can't put them down? They play in this same shitty conference but yet they seemed to have made the playoffs with no problem even with a loss. The BiG12 sucks so bad. It took some major ESPN lobbying to get Alabama in over Okie lite during the latter BCS years... it took a TCU fuckup late in the season for tOSU to squeak by them into the playoffs one year. The B12 sucks is a matter of perception that obviously isn't shared nationally. Out of the P5 conferences the B12 isn't one that has suffered from being left out of the playoffs in favor of others with the same record.
  8. No fan is ever happy for the loss because the other team needed a hang in there little buddy type of win... Especially when your Team has been lost in the same desert as ours, just as long as ours. Take the loss pussy is one thing. Happy for aggy without any concern for the mass sheep rape coming? Only aggy.
  9. Sam is the reason we won at Tech but not the reason we lost to TCU or OfukinU. Flawed yes. A significant part of the problem? Fuck off
  10. There are several news articles from around the time piggy left floating around. Army and the SEC was expecting Texas to follow Arkansas a year or two later, but Texas backed out and the B12 was formed shortly after... After Texas didn't take the spot, aggy went into full "aggy puts out" mode begging for that invite and didn't stop until -finally....
  11. In all fairness.. I do NOT want to play aggy either. My reasons 1 thru 10 are: FUCK AGGY aggy reasons not wanting to play tu are: 1 oh fuck no... 2 but, but, but... 3 oh please GOD. I'll sacrifice my favorite, slightly used sheep if you help poor aggy.. 4 but, but, but... 5. I scared. 6. what if... 7. Is it still a quality loss if it's to the sips? 8. I do not like this... 9. I think aggy can. I think aggy can, I think aggy can.... Oh fuck... aggy gonna get raped. 10. Hold me!
  12. The first time some ESPN asshat said a loss in the SEC really wasn't a loss at all to excuse a late season bama loss, nothing short of an extinction event was going to keep Aggy out of their wet dream of a conference home. The whole media hype that in the collective known as the SEC where if one wins everybody wins was cool and everything, but to aggy, it was the whole loss thing that completely brianfucked them. Aggy has always struggled with all those kisses (not only in sports). They spent 150 rationalizing 150 years of shortcomings and how to make them irrelevant. The dream of a collective conference where aggy is only measured by its victories finally legitimized aggy view of themselves as elite. So they thought. Even in the SEC, aggy still struggles with the same ghosts they always have. So they rationalize the same shortcomings with things like when the B12 recruits cycle through and we have SEC recruits, we will dominate the SEC. A loss to other SEC elites is better than beating weaker non SEC p-5 teams. A 2 (or 3) loss aggy will get into the playoffs over almost any other non SEC team with 1 (or 0) loss because of quality losses. In other words... Same old aggy. Who is starting to figure out their new boters are still being measured by the same shortcomings everyone else did... Then the true butthurt aggy full of penis envy will come out.
  13. So what's their excuse for sucking just as bad in the sec? Sips done bought the sec refs.... Maybe they should have spent some of that 75 million on securing their own refs instead of a cuck.
  14. Since the tax payers will be footing the bill once again, I think we should go all in on a nuke. More cost effective... or a wall and give the shit hole back to Mexico.
  15. They were so glad to get away from the BDF and into the SEC where they have real competition and play big boy football... You know since the BDF was so easy for them to dominate... It they had stuck around, they would own TCU and WVU also! Whoop! I wonder if Maryland fans see their move to the B10 the same as aggy? Already have an answer.... NO. It was for the money and not better competition Didn't even need to look it up. Only aggy can cold fusion like aggy.
  16. Just wait until streaming becomes the main way content is delivered. It gives the duck even more control. They can't force packages on national cable carriers carriers, but streaming gives them all the control to package their content any way they see fit and force the consumer to take it or leave it... You got to admit that it will be hysterical if they decided to piggyback the LHN on anyone wanting the SECNET (or accnet). What a conundrum for aggy. They can send all the strongly worded letters they want threatening to cancel their streaming service, but we all know they will suck it up and pay anyways... secsecsecnet... They refuse to admit it, but we all know they are all closet horn viewers as it is, but the amount of threads started on texags each time we play says it all.
  17. I wonder what ESPN'S reason was for going for such a short term on T-3's and opening them up for renegotiations right along with the T-1 and T-2s. It sounds like they plan on keeping the t3 long term if they are planning on adding OU later down the road. Any idea when OU's come open?
  18. I guess we could post about spring practice ....
  19. If we landed USC and ND showed interest, I could see the BIG 12 giving a 50 million loan with a next to nothing yearly repayment plan. Hell, I could see a certain TV partner seeing value in a network that has TX/West coast/ND even at the expense of stand alones such as LHN/USC/ND packaged with a BIG?NET that they might be willing to help offset penalties. The Duck is notorious for playing the long game at the expense of a few years of loses... ESPN, SECNET, ACCNET, BIG12 (with the cream of the PAC), ND, HULU (merged for it's live TV content, added to D+ is long term security no matter what Amazon, ATT, Google decide to do. If the "others" sleep on the PAC/BIG 12 renegotiations, I can see the duck go for checkmate as described.
  20. I would Target USC, UCLA (likely needed to get USC), Oregon, Washington, and both AZ schools. As long as the Big 12 gets USC, they could choose to stay at 10 (unlikeky), or go balls deep... JUST for FUN.. If it does come out the BIG 12 is targeting 7 teams from the PAC, I'm curious who the BIG 12 believes they would lure as the 18th... I don't see them leaving the spot open just to add some minor leaguer as a travel partner for WVU... I don't see Arkansas or LSU being ready to jump just because of some PAC schools joining. Maybe Colorado being the 7th could lure Nebraska, but I'm not convinced it would just yet. Too much pride and money to swallow. Nor am I sure the BIG 12 is beating on their door asking just yet. The ACC? Probably not... Maybe PITT for WVU? Or FSU? Both are highly unlikely. No real incentive to move... Would Stanford as the 7th coupled with USC be enough lure ND? Maybe... possible... Not sure... Does anyone know how much ND gets from the accnet? I haven't looked it up.
  21. I wouldn't hold my breath on Fox/ESPN going "all in" on saving the PAC. Both make money on tier 1, 2, AND 3 content from the other conferences. That's not something they can do with the PAC. Unlike last time, there was a big incentive to keep the Texas market from the PACNET, this time there is more incentive in flushing the big names from the PAC over saving it. It puts good Tier 3 content back on the market... Fox or ESPN could easily be ready for another conference network (NOT good for the PAC). Even if not, there is 0 benefit in letting anyone from the BIG12 defect to the PAC, but there is good reason to let the PAC come apart at the seams with the main one being to kill the PACNET. Personally I think the thing that sparks the next go around is going to be the ADs the same way it did with the formation of the BIG 12. You know the ADs in the PAC and BIG 12 are well aware of the potential for huge revenue hikes by combining the TX/CA markets. When the contract negotiations begin and the ADs get the feeling they will fall short of what they believe the BIG 10 and the SEC will pull when they go through their renegotiations, all hell will break loose...
  22. The difference is ESPN torpedoed the PAC-NET when they used the SEC to flirt with aggy... then they nuked it with the LHN. They knew the PAC-NET would be doomed without a (Texas) bridge to the east. And Fox doesn't seem interested in saving the PAC. Besides, it is in ESPN's interest to push as many top teams to the Big 12 so they can start yet another network that would rival the money they make off the secnet.
  23. Well at least the nazis could engineer a proper burning.
