  1. Like Alabama, NIL might be ending A&M's glorious history pre-bag. Again, spend what you will. Your view won't change. It's what everybody is saying. Beating Texas and playing in national championship games? Great days ahead for the Texas A&M Fightin' Texas Aggies from Texas! Howdies all around! 1. Find another phrase. Maybe it will accompany an original thought. 2 Yea, before NIL, everbody was making the obvious choice and going to A&M. They were fine men. Now? Mercs. You fucking whiny bitches. It's the norm whether you're winning or not. It's also the norm when you're outspending us. NIL provides them the perfect narative. Back when virtue reigned, the Ags were contenders and loved by all for their special ways. Now? Where have all the flowers gone? Just mercenaries.
  2. I'll presume to add to that another related observation. When you read their boards you see a recurring notion about what brings success: emotion. Their baseball team is pressing too hard and tight if you still love them while they lose. They just don't give a shit is the reasoning of the disappointed who begin to despise all but a few of the players (the real Ags!). Earley should be loosening them up or inspiring them to care enough to achieve easily attained victory. The don't give a shit appraisal is true of all major sports where the teams fail. The dullards' main technical concern in football is "adjustments." Seems they're not being made at halftime. Nobody elaborates beyond the lack of adjustments. Why get involved in the details of strategy or tactics when all that really matters is squeezing your gonads in the ultimate display of emotional support? When they loved Jimbo, his problem was stubborness. When they turned on him, they decided he didn't give a shit. All of this, in my opinion, is tied to their whole culture of redass expressions of gung-ho-ness no matter how inane or fatal. If they yell loud enough, the good ol' Texas Aggies will have the strength to vanquish their opponents and assert the power of Aggie emotion. They're basically addicted to hysteria. Hysterical love for all things Aggie. Hysterical hatred of all things not Aggie (virtue) in the form of t.u. (ebil). We get to be hysterical in the sense of extreme amusement.
  3. Are you referring to QBU? They stack five stars.
  4. I'm late returning to the thread, so forgive me for the late response. There's a lot of money to be made in a rollercoaster market. I'm sure the usual suspects are doing quite well. I find the focus on amount of wealth lost on a drop as being too narrow. Sadly, that's the focus of MSM. Insider trading, I'm guessing, should be the story. It happened before when Trump was president and actually had a few humans working around him. How much is a tip about a 100% tarriff being levied worth, Mr. Futures Marketer? Same with a heads up about withdrawing tarriffs. I have no financials training, but it appears sort of obvious to me. Be nice if some hotshot college-boy journalists could dig into such a meaty story and line everything out for me. Actually, there likely is a solid reporter looking into this. He'll get published and we'll hear the bright pebble tapping downwards into the rocky void of Idiot World.
  5. I think the legacy you describe is safe among all persons who can define legacy without referring to a video game.
  6. Hard to make a moron look more foolish than nature has provided, but...Donald, a thoughtful man, sits to ponder a question of the ages. He writes: He selects just the correct and subtle means of emphasis: Always the intellectual, Donald finds a new use of the question mark. Grouped in three, they signify exclamation and coming philosophical inquiry. To wit: So states Donald who never explains anything preferring lies, has no sense of shame so is never embarrassed, and gives no more consideration to correctness or right than a tapeworm. Next, Donald takes his shot at explanation. He lies. Ever the subtle man, well, let's let him describe himself, "not smart, but genius....and a very stable genius at that!"... ...Donald's valediction is layered as is the onion. It sounds like a dunning letter: Our Donny boy.
  7. I haven't the previous few pages. Is this serious? Nevermind.
  8. Been a long time, Brauny. I've missed your dreaminess. That just may be an unprecedented level of bewilderment. Here's a fair edit to boil down 7 lines: Roll out the expertise, strong man. We know that you are far more than the dull-eyed brute you present as! Make monkies of your detractors! 1. Accurate self-diagnosis on the bewilderment. 2. Brauny sets Dickens as the mark for what is to follow. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, ... it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us... Admirable allusion to an apt quote. I had to look it up! How will our muscular scribe articulate this complex and simple occurrence? 3. That, my friends, is insight. He promises to boil it down to "the short version." I wish Yogi Berra was here to help us peel the onion. 1 I believe those are the same thing, Braunster. just remember to push this to see light coming out of the computer box: 2 Hard to fathom? You see, this is what it's like to feel like you understand something. I sometimes feel like I can reconcile the theories of relativity and quantum physics. More what? All you gave us here was basically that the Aggies got creamed. Deep stuff.
  9. Aggies are good people. Very welcoming and classy. I met them in Omaha (have I mentioned that before?) anyway, I met them in Omaha at their team hotel. Mike Earley himself walked me to Kyle Field so I wouldn't get lost. That's a long way from Omaha where I met the Aggies at their team hotel, but Coach Early stuck with me the whole way! I can't help but be an Aggie fan. I don't think Texas likes my Tarheels much.
  10. Just went over to TexAgs. There's a guy, jkag, there who posts all the scores of the weekend. It's a very handy place to see what's going on. I hit their game thread. Game 3 with Missouri. Bases loaded for Missouri. One out. Top of 6 Next batter.
  11. My president deserves to ride in high style. Joe Biden, the worst president ever, left the plane a mess. He disgraced Air Force One. Trump is only borrowing the Saudi jet for the image of America's return to greatness again. Trump is a billionaire business man, he doesn't need to take bribes. And he really gets us and hates the libs.
  12. ...and all those nasty women who lied about me. Terrible women. They say I touched them, but they're all too ugly for me to care. They're ugly like nobody's ever seen before, and they're dangerous to our country. A lot of people tell me that I'm the politest person they've ever known. I don't know, but that's what they say. I must be pretty polite. I won the election in a landslide including all seven swing states. So happy Mother's Day even to the lying nasty women and your ugly children and the loser you married. Ivanka, call me.
  13. Y'all might find this amusing to read in between innings or something. I happed to visit TexAgs during their 6th inning and collected some posts.
  14. Checked in on the TexAgs game thread for today: ETA; I'll keep adding so long as it's interesting. Man, they get Aggie rollercoasters in a single inning: That was a particularly nice moment to check on baseball.
  15. Had to go with the neg, bro. For lying to yourself that this somehow justifies your support of the overthrow of the republic. He, Incred! They're rounding up random foriegn-born people (not the white ones, of course) and shipping them to a hell hole in El Salvador. They're ambushing regular people with brave, armored, heavily-armed assault teams and saying they're all criminals with no evidence. Many of them merely publicly disagreed with US policy and the homeless famine inflicted by our brave ally Israel. Dude, Brandon, tee-hee, is bankrupt. He was corrupt. We dodged a bullet! Does your shit ever generate infections in your ear when they finally leave that dark canal to return to daylight? I mean, I know you like the taste and smell in there, but it seems to be unsanitary. Maybe wash those ears out before returning to your happy place. You don't use them in he outside world, but I don't want to see you unwell. Keep an eye on the traitors! They must meet their just rewards!
  16. Bad form, but I'm quoting my own post from Jan. 20. @Willfully Horn drew my attention to it with his outrage vote a little bit ago. In retrospect, it's the clearest that I ever articulated what we were seeing. I was still transitioning towards resignation. How else to remain sane where people can't agree on reality?
  17. Nice one. How weird that I'm pulling for other countries in a conflict with the US. How astonishing that one of them is Canada.
  18. Thanks for posting the link and captures. Unless it's a huge star (QB), I usually have my hands full keeping track of the immediate class and I'm lost for awhile as to the next year. You do a lot of good things on this board.
  19. I'm not a great grammarian. I think the change makes it better, but I may surely be mistaken about how I label things.
  20. Bless you, @JesusSweatDuck. Just the perfect little excercise to separate the week from the weekend! Brevity, my friend, and lay off the useless, inaccurate qualifiers. And, for God's Sake, active voice!!! 1 It never gets more bare-knuckeled, no-holds-barred, and dirty than someone inviting one to join something and saying yes. Cover the children's eyes? 2 I get the feeling that constant state of astonishment is another Aggie tradition. "You see that? He just started a car by pushing it!!" 3 Compliments on your realization about the void of said attachments.
