  1. Let me follow up my last derisive post ridiculing the idea that band/drill team wags the dog by also pointing out that MisterP is wrong. I know lot’s of parents and families who are there for the team, but more so for their kid in the band, drill team, etc. When their kid graduates they may go to a game or two, but it is fewer and often none they attend. As kids get older being a supportive parent is more and more about showing up or being available.
  2. Yeah, I can’t count the number of Friday nights where the stadium is packed, people tailgate ahead of time, and we all watch the band and drill team perform for 3 hours.
  3. He could have Leon fetch coffee for everyone….but no one likes lukewarm coffee.
  4. And how do they "capture" that wavelength and sound for the entire stadium? What great sound sucking device is being used to capture that and then "drain" it into the metal structural supports which are being compromised by cutting holes in them and inserting the PVC pipe.

  6. Greg Davis is rested and ready!
  7. Can I be happy for your family and very very disappointed at the same time?
  8. Randy, is that you? I’m 7,000 words short of RD territory. But compliment-ish accepted.
  9. They do it two stupid ways. One is the one year you referenced where they borrowed (took out loan or bond) to pay for their stadium renovations. They claimed this $400M as Revenue in their aggy math P&L, and so claimed to the world that they were the richest based on this. Of course this has nothing to do with revenue and is a balance sheet addition for cash/loan in and an outstanding obligation for the same. But of course...aggy. Second is where they claim 100% of the PUF as aggy endowment (not the 1/3 that is flowed to A&M system), usually closely followed by saying that makes them richer than Texas who only reports 2/3 of the PUF as endowment as that is what goes to the UT system. So their logic has them claim 100% of what should be 1/3, and when Texas rightly claims 2/3 they brag about how much richer they are than Texas. Of course ignoring this if we look at aggy endowment outside of the PUF is around $2.5B and Texas' is $13B. But aggy richer and biggest and bestest of everyone.
  10. Originally, Georgia and OU had the first of a two game home and home set to be this year (like Texas and Alabama), but because OU was joining the SEC and the second game would be after OU joined the SEC , the SEC made Georgia/OU cancel the series and both teams had to look for a new game on fairly short notice. The Ball State game was the replacement for Georgia.
  11. They followed this up by talking about it some more. Seriously.
  12. Just like you don’t quit your current job without having a new one lined up, aggy had to have had Jimbo’s replacement lined up before firing him. Right!? Right. right …….
  13. What this person needs to add is that if this doesn’t happen then aggy is a sub-par, delusion of grandeur, loser of a program. Everyone but aggy knows this is true regardless, but all aggy pundits need to put this with their statements of future greatness.
  14. Last page Mike said 5am running. I guess he needs 3 am run to make the garbage man job on time. And very few people are doing that because only stupid people are doing that.
  15. Yes…except an Oral agreement can be considered valid if evidence can be shown supporting it’s clarity and validity, where a gentlemen's agreement can be assumed to tell aggy to go get their shine box.
  16. And you told her “With you honey there is an unlimited number of option.” ….and that kids is how I divorced your Mother.
  17. The lights not the same there. Completely different time zone.
