I'm not going to argue with you. This thread is about a medal of honor recipient.

Video of Carpenter being awarded the Medal of Honor
quote:
WASHINGTON — Cpl. William Kyle Carpenter, an automatic rifleman who shielded a fellow Marine from a grenade thrown at them during a firefight in Afghanistan in 2010, received the Medal of Honor from President Obama on Thursday.
“Corporal William Kyle Carpenter should not be alive today,” Mr. Obama said during the ceremony. “But we are here because this man, this United States Marine, faced down that terrible explosive power, that unforgiving force, with his own body — willingly and deliberately — to protect a fellow Marine.”
He is the eighth living recipient of the medal for service in Afghanistan or Iraq. The Medal of Honor is the nation’s highest military honor.
In his platoon’s second day of heavy fighting with the Taliban, Corporal Carpenter, then a lance corporal, was stationed on top of a mud hut, alongside Lance Cpl. Nicholas Eufrazio, when a grenade landed on the rooftop. Corporal Carpenter leapt between the explosive and his fellow Marine, absorbing the brunt of the blast with his body.

Jordan Hare may have been the quietest road venue A&M has ever played at. There may have been 25,000 people there mid 2nd quarter. But maybe that had to do with the score being 42-7 before halftime.

One side says Game. One side says Cocks. It leads into 2001.
Very high schoolish

Uh, yeah, I think it was more to do with that.
It'll be quite loud this year, assuming we're not terrible and you're not a cupcake by then.

Yeah
Mother pulled on her daughter's shirt at like 2:20 when they start running.
And little man doesn't get a hug from Dad.
It's all been covered exponentially in the comments that I still read for some reason.

That's awesome. I plan on watching the game outside the stadium with a buddy. I'm sure we will hear the crowd go wild.

Bump. Not even sorry.

I was at the 2010 game. If that place gets louder then that then DAMN. I remember Herbstreet(sp) saying one game the stadium was shaking so bad they were afraid it was going to fall down.

Oh, that's someone's name...
At first, I thought the Cocks had invited the Gump that claimed to have sabotaged aTm's stadium.

Aggies recruit the guys that are eager to play in hostile stadiums, otherwise they would go to a B12 school.
People in Texas, Tennessee, Missouri, Georgia, Florida and half of South Carolina will be lmfao on Friday after all this shite talk we have heard!
