They like to watch football while putting some meat in their mouth or is this some Aggie historic thing they seem to bitch about wanting to play on turkey day

Most of their families are not accepting of their lifestyle choices, so they literally have nothing else to do on that day.

They like to dress up like turkeys and pretend they're getting stuffed.

A&M fans are big on tradition.

Except for traditional marriage that is... we all know ain’t nothing but steers and queers at A&M, and only Texas has horns...

They need to schedule Texas and play every year on Thanksgiving

It's tough playing a SEC opponent on Sat and turning around and playing A&M on thurs. LSU hated playing the Fri game against Arkansas as well.

LSU played the one game on Thanksgiving in College Station but haven't budged off the Sat game being in Tiger Stadium

We have so much money that we think it’s funny to po po on other people’s holiday. We make bets about you peasants kind of like the Duke brothers in Coming to America.

My opinion is the Thanksgiving Day deal is something that was tied to UT. We don’t play that game any longer. I prefer playing LSU on that Saturday...shouldn’t force anyone into a ‘tradition’ we previously had with another school. If we ever resume the Texas game it should be earlier in the year prior to the conference slate beginning. I like the LSU game to finish off the year...just need some more wins to make it competitive.

Is it some form of racist in 2020 to mix up Eddie Murphy movies?

I’ve always loved the Friday game myself but whatever- not too irked by it anymore.

God Emperor Wade can do know wrong. It’s called Devine command theory.

If I was an LSU fan I would have hated it also. We grew up playing on Thanksgiving so it was a lot of fun. For anyone outside of A&M or Texass I definitely see how it would suck and be very disruptive to how you guys grew up and celebrated Thanksgiving.
