re: Mizzou fans are a pretty classy bunch

Hey MasterAg, pssst, I'm going to let you in on a little secret:

All alums love their schools, are proud of their schools, and remain attached to them. And all schools have their little rites, traditions, and haunts that every alum - and only an alum - knows about.

I met a lot of Aggies in my military career and they were all good guys. Hard workers and team players.

However, one thing a lot of them didn't seem to understand is that reverence for one's alma mater isn't an Aggie thing. It's a school thing. I had to suffer through more than one nostalgia session when an Aggie would dreamily stare off into space, recalling the magic of midnight yell practice, Dat Nguyen, boot shining sessions, etc. It was ridiculous...

In short, stop condescending and give it a rest.
