I will be bummed if Johnny doesn't play for the Aggies this year, but there will still be plenty to look forward to.

Our expectations will go down, but my hope for my team(s) is the same every year: to exceed expectations.

The reason last year was so great is that the Aggies exceeded just about everyone's expectations.

If your team exceeds expectations every year, you will eventually win a national championship. The tricky part comes after that when expectations are unrealistic. Ask LSU fans. I'd say ask Alabama fans, but Saban has done an incredible job exceeding expectations there.

Look at it as a season ending ACL in preseason.

My Saturdays may not be quite as fun, but my life will go on.

I still just don't see him getting suspended. As a fellow Kerrville guy and Tivy grad, I really want to see him succeed. But damn he seems to make quite a few questionable calls off the field.

The SEC is better with him in it. And with all his baggage.

I know our fans hope he comes to tiger stadium. It's not often you have a home game against a Heisman trophy winner

See that's just it with Bama, and it's why most people call Bama delusional and a bit crazy. The expectation is ALWAYS a national championship. Doesn't matter who is on the team. Doesn't matter who graduates or who is ruled ineligible. The expectation is to win it all every year, until it is completely impossible to pull it off.

Don't lower you expectations because one player is gone. frick that noise. Keep em high. Say that the next guy up is just as good. Say your team will pull together and shock the damn world.

That pleasantly surprised stuff is for pussies and losers.

It's his life, and he is going to enjoy it to the fullest. And I am OK with that....

We expect excellence year in and year out. That's what makes top programs stay on top. When you start saying "Well I mean we weren't good but that's okay" that's when you tailspin into shite. When you accept losing, you become losers.

Also our expectations of being national title contenders year in and year out are far from unrealistic. We're a kicker from oklahoma state making one kick in '11 from winning it all and a screen pass in '12 from winning it all.

I was looking forward to watching Bama knock his dick in the dirt, but if Johnny finally douched his way right off the field, I won't lose sleep over it.

Well my sport bet I made back in May for TAMUCS to win it all would be worthless. So I would not be OK with this.
