While I have your ear, you seem reasonable. Where does all the Texas A&M hate come from?
The same way I "hated" Arkansas when we finished the season with them with the Battle of the Boot. What was a (for the most part) a certain win became much more difficult as the "rivalry" grew with time. A perfect example was 2007. I honestly did not care about Texas A&M until 74-72. Over time I grew to "hate" A&M only because they were a threat to ending our season on a high note.

Hopefully that makes sense. I think you understand me well enough to know I don't post "hateful" things about Texas A&M. However, I absolutely do not want to lose to them either.

I can pick your slack there, Wolfie.



...If you lived among them, like I do, you would feel differently. I actually welcomed them into the leaugue back when...I didn't know any of them.

You can love your school and hate to lose without hating the school. Many of my friends are LSU alum and I love the hell out of them!

I had zero hate towards LSU until I found this board. The 24x7 vitriol towards Aggie has turned me into a flame thrower.

To me, this place shows the soft underbelly of human depravity when there are no repercussions to our words.

I find myself coming here less and less.
