However, we suffer from a few folks who want to dominate conversation and steer threads back to the same topic. This makes me, for one, read and post far less. So the effect, at least imo, is stifling conversation.
Don't really mind if some folks weigh in on each and every subject and profess to be the only one that really understands what is going on. However, when one Ag starts insulting another Ag for not agreeing then that gets old fast. Seems to be a handful of those on this board now.
I read posts and weigh in on topics less and less around here. Just have better things to do. Been around Texas A&M for a long time and go to 80% of the games home and away. Know plenty of Ags heavily involved in Aggie athletics, some know most of the coaches, some know players, 2 of our road companions own rental properties that house a number of football scholarship Ags. Some of the "all knowing" so called "experts" around here make me laugh from time to time.
The quality of discussions are still there. You just have to wade through so much BS around here from time to time.

Which is where I draw the line. I don't mind destroying someone's wrong-headed argument, but there's no reason to make it personal. That's the problem people have with certain moderators on other sites, especially a certain goateed version of Ketchum...when it's clear they are not going to win the argument, they resort to name-calling and "cutting the mike".

True and I never claimed to be all knowing, if fact I post very little of what I hear. I have a family member in the AD and know several reporters from the Eagle and Chronicle as well as a couple of the big money guys. Everything I hear is still just speculation or their opinion no matter how right or wrong they are, I post some of it but nothing earth shattering and never really claim to be in the know. Some of what I post is stuff we all should know and some is what I hear around town. Take it for what it's worth.
