I know nothing about Harris' recruitment except he was coveted. Were there signs about what was to come? Did Texas pursue him ardently?

I felt shitty that the olds made FB so cluttered and dull (here's my new grandbaby! I ran my ninth 10k, The Geriacstravazana! Yummy pancakes. Here's an article I read that you should read.) that youth fled from the reminders of the general dullness that life has waiting for them. I occasionally go on FB to spread my insufferable bloviations somewhere else to give you guys a break. It's disappointing that so few people write or share anything interesting. I don't care what you read that made you feel blessed to live in Tomball.

Hate white white culture? No, dumbass. They hate you if they even know who you are. I can hate the martial ardor of Japan that led to the Rape of Nanking and Comfort Women and the Bataan Death March. I would have hated the Japanese had I been alive at the time of the war. I could still appreciate Japanese art, ceramics, and their austere aesthetic. If some Japanese radio guy started denying the Japanese army did anything wrong in WW2 and that they were the actual victims, I'd hate that guy. Just like I despise American influencers who promote fear of things that don't exist. In short:

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 taken 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.

I like Herbstreit. He loves college football and seems to back that up with how much he knows. I don't hold grudges against things people say one time so long as their being honest. You can be honest and wrong. I don't get the hate. Klatt is great right now. I suspect he'll say enough things he means over the years to come to make different fan bases hate him...and never forget. Klatt will be the same person. So it is with Herbstreit. I get so bored with the idiots who overpopulate sports commentary. Herbstreit is far better than that as is Klatt. I'll admit that I don't follow this as closely as many of you do. He called us a cesspool. That was low and wrong. However, we sucked at the time. He doesn't hold an opinion when the facts change. Maybe we should try the same thing.

I gotta say, I loved the old school attempt to get off the field without help. Toughness.

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
RomaVicta replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
Yeah, that would have solved all our problems. The talk about inflation, egg prices, Dems being too snooty, and shit is just the froth on the surface of the cesspool. -
The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
RomaVicta replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
Back in the old paradigm, this may have had some weight. No more, I'm sorry to say. There is absolutely no evidence that actual policies and policy results matter much in America. When's the last time you won a point with a MAGA by stating an obvious fact? The active vote and shameful acquiesence of non-voters shouts who the party of the people is. The choice could not have been clearer. Stop blaming the Dems who represent what we wish was true about this country. There is no adjustment to the message or even choice of candidate that can matter much. People don't want anything that reeks of humanity or tolerance or citizen teamwork. The vote and failure to vote prove this. The new paradigm is war. Those who love America and hate everything else versus the rational people. The rational people got slaughtered. I don't see a road that civilizes MAGAs to understand liberal democracy or the importance of unity among similar nations. The traitors are in charge. -
It's so desperate. We hate tu, everybody must hate tu! Even all of Texas outside of Asstin. Incompetents can't even get the day right.

Everything they do looks completely joyless. Let's look manly mean when we play music and march. They strive to be the loudest stadium, so their fans always look unhappy and very serious in the effort of making noise. It's very important to be a Texas A&M Aggie.

Why only for "illegal aliens?" Is rape or murder at their hands worse than those by American grade killers and rapists? Is there a rape and murder gap between America and foreign killers and rapists? It's hard to believe, but we are the best at everything. We cannot allow a rape and murder gap! Who am I kidding. Nobody beats America at murder and rape. Nobody! Oh, well.

His meter and alliteration leave much to be desired, but I think we can all agree his onomatopoeia is exquisite. -
Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
RomaVicta replied to PenelopeWitherspoon's topic in Cloak Room
You assume that we walk the party-line jersey color in lockstep as you do. Every time a Dem is accused of something, you see all of us supporting an investigation and letting law enforcement go where it will. We got rid of a senator for just having an inappropriate picture and a few stories of him groping women's buttocks. You elect a rapist.- 3147 replies

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
RomaVicta replied to PenelopeWitherspoon's topic in Cloak Room
2/3 of your choices are. Did these people dominate the investigation? Is their anyone pure enough to investigate lilly-white Gaetz in your opinion? Your the classic amateur operative sacrificing your personal integrity to try to help the GOP jersey get closer to the goal line. Third rate sophistry where any answer is a valid answer so long as you can avoid good faith is the tell. You're a miserable human being. Enjoy the country you're destroying. Or fall out of a window. -
He's not. He's standing on a stack of turtles. Ohio State is raking boys in like the Finns in a forest raking leaves. Is Day the kind of culture guy that can get them all on the same page? Looks like the Deion experiment in Colorado.

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
RomaVicta replied to PenelopeWitherspoon's topic in Cloak Room
That's a lie! Black people can't write! This post is a wow on so many levels. What disqualifies the persons you name? Is it just a projection of what GOPs do with power? Or is it the tired and stupid shit about Dems can't investigate Dems because they wouldn't harm a fellow Dem while Dems investigating GOPs is unfair? Only GOPs can be trusted to investigate and persecute Dems or whitewash pieces of shit like Gaetz. And you. -
ETA Regarding Singleton: I thought the word was that he didn't mesh well when he visited. I got the impression that the cooling was mutual.

I couldn't find just the right way to say that. Exactly! -
Aggies should have got their licks in when they could. If this game is scheduled for daytime, A&M will protest. But we had to play there at night.

Money is all that matters, otherwise everybody would be an Aggie. Texas is only good because of spending money on recruits. Teams are only good because they spend money on recruits. Let's spend all the money we can on top recruits to succeed just like we did with the '22 class that was a disaster. Yea, those trophys don't exist and you wouldn't win them if they did. You went 8-4. That's an El Niño year for you. Here's some of that great objectivity: [ETA: I got this wrong. It's still pretty stupid, though.] -
I feel like your wife wondering why she married such an intransigent moron.

Well, here are the dear old Texas Aggies inventing repression: And ending with a nice bit of racism. DEI is the new N-word for some, I believe.
