pic from a less than happy A&M alumnae


As far as I can tell she IS a former student and IS very unhappy. It was meant to be funny and she is apparently humorless. Oh well. I guess there's at least one in every crowd.

Yeah, most of the media will come down pretty hard on her. I am sure she will have to issue an apology by the end of the day

Strangely, I was not invited. As far as I can tell OP's first several pics are made up, but this one is real:



A completely humorless former student female is outraged. OUTRAGED I tell ya.

ETA: Showing my evil misogynistic ways here, but if a woman is going to be upset about something how about starting with A&M has a class for women and women only to learn about football??? PC folks are hard to figure sometimes.

You realize that the ONLY SOURCE for all of the other pics is shaggy Bevo and burnt orange nation? What does that tell you?

Yes. Like I said, I was not invited. And as entertaining as your first several pics were, if those were real I'd think they'd be plastered in every Aggies-suck forum.

ETA: And in the REAL picture, they mispelled Caneck. Stupid women. How are they gonna learn anything about football?

They aren't photoshopped, you dork. The thread on texags confirms from witnesses that they are real.

They're all real and probably in poor taste with or without context. A&M's has been doing the Chalk Talk thing for years and it's really well received by the ladies, last night included. Plus, they raise quite a bit of money for charity every year.

Unfortunate that most people will see the pictures posted online without any context and draw conclusions from only that, but it's probably something that shouldn't have passed muster regardless given the current climate of CFB, especially in Texas.

Hopefully this doesn't balloon into something that harms the event itself as I know there'd be plenty more upset female alums if it were taken away from them.

Also, the faux outrage of Anwar and Orangebloods over this is disingenuous at best IMO. Texas' glass house of football related women problems is not one to throw rocks from.

Totally photoshopped

Full disclosure....I was apparently in the Ladies Room when this slide came up. Let me also say that the contents of the slide were the least of my concerns. And this is my personal opinion, formed by my personal belief system. But I wanted to weigh in and willing to take the fall-out.

I was very uncomfortable with other pictures and remarks made by a couple of presentations. It was overly sexual and I felt it did not fall in line with the "character building" remarks that went along with it. Keep in mind the room was not just a group of older women...there were a lot of college students there and many of the players were positioned around the room. Impressionable young men that watched their coaches put up slides of scantily clad women (and men, to be fair), repeatedly tell women to "spread your legs", "a little more" ....and many more remarks that went further than that. I enjoyed Chavis talk so much more - it gave us a lot of information, got us motivated for the season, and showed us what kind of man he was and the type of influence he is on his young men.

Again, being honest, the situation at Baylor did enter my mind. Respect for women begins at the most basic levels, and I think that lesson was damaged somewhat Wednesday night. Not only by what was said and shown, but by the response. As women, we were saying we are okay with that. I am not okay with it.

It was my choice to go and I have gone for many, many years. It will also be my choice not to go next year. If the majority of the women like that type of gathering, then so be it.

Yeah, I have a pretty wide-ranging sense of humor, to put it mildly, and I don't see the humor in that. The coaches should know better.

Make fun of a&m all you want. They don't care. When you have all of the recent cfb national titles they have, you are impervious to ridicule.
