You know, this word gets thrown around WAY too much on these boards, but in the context of:

...it really is true. Case in point is Old Sarge calling everyone else, "little brother". That's just downright weird considering A&M has a losing record to pretty much everyone.

Jesus this thread has turned into a pile of insecurity and bullshite. I sincerely regret ever posting on this topic.

OP after reading this thread I think you'll be able to formulate your own understanding. Outside of all the attempted trolling on both sides anyways.

The sips hate to admit it but renewing the rivalry would really help their cause (just look at the motives of their posts and lol when they try to say they don't really don't care about it). A&M has little incentive at this point and is in no hurry to run to the sips' rescue (this will continue to bring criticism that A&M is dipping out on a historic rivalry).

The overall result is similar to what you see in this thread, a shite show of airing dirty laundry and a bit of delusion on both sides (though I would argue the delusion is heavier on one side but that's kind of fits the theme here).

In my opinion, both sides feel it's inevitable that the game will come back at some point (whether in a temporary or regular capacity remains to be seen). I think it's safe to say however that the time is not now or anywhere near the immediate future.

Until then, enjoy the shite show that is Aggies and Horns sloppily (and often embarrassingly for both sides) going back and forth at each other with meaningless jargon on message boards. In the end, none of it really matters outside of the two fan-bases.

Let me try to explain it such that even an aggie could understand...

Given that:
The consensus of opinion among A&M fans ITT is that having an annual game with Texas would only be to the benefit of UT.

AND given that:
There is no way getting the dogshit beat out of them consistently by A&M would in any way be to the benefit of UT.

We can conclude that the consensus of aggie opinion ITT is that they have no confidence that they could consistently beat the dogshit out of UT.

Therefore, it appears, ITT, that aggies are scared to renew the annual rivalry with the Longhorns.

It's not rocket science.

This state rep doesn't look all that old...



quote:

The desire to see Texas and Texas A&M play each other in football again has reached the state's legislative branch.

Rep. Ryan Guillen of Rio Grande City this week filed a bill that would require the Longhorns and Aggies to reinstate the football series that came to an indefinite end when A&M joined the Southeastern Conference last year. House Bill 778 calls for restrictions on athletic scholarships if one school refuses to play the other.

And the cycle continues..

Continue to explain until you're blue in the face why A&M should play Texas and why the game has equal implications for both teams.

We both know one team needs this way more than the other, otherwise why else would you all be here pretending like you don't care while trying to convince everyone (including yourselves) that there's no reason we shouldn't play.

Apparently I was wrong, it wasn't so clear an aggie could understand it.

I don't give a shite if aggie plays UT or not. I'm explaining why aggies look like a bunch of cowards. You have the opportunity to crush your major competition for recruits in Texas, but you're too scared to take it - because y'all don't think you can consistently beat UT. And then it's all herp and derp from aggies.

why else would you all be here

Because it's fun to watch aggies herp/derp their way through a conversation with or about UT.

And we're back to square one. Let's skip the next several cycles and just agree to disagree.

Or continue to try and convince yourself and others that A&M should help sip.

Edit: If you want to give yourself an out, I specifically acknowledged that:
quote:

(this will continue to bring criticism that A&M is dipping out on a historic rivalry).


So if that's all you're going to bring to the table I'm not sure you're contributing much original content to the discussion. But thanks for 'attempting' to explain it to Aggies.

It's not rocket science.

Or, it could be that only a fricking idiot would expect to always be able to beat another team, and that is a non-factor in our decision. It could be that bailing them out of their current dog-shite situation by giving them an interesting game would do way more for them, regardless of the game outcome.

But, whatever. Call it what you want.

We're still not gonna play those frickers anytime soon. You are acting JUST LIKE THEM. They have been pathetically using their media resources to try and guilt or shame our administration into making a poor decision. It's really pathetic.

So when I say this:
quote:

I don't give a shite if aggie plays UT or not. I'm explaining why ...You have the opportunity to crush your major competition for recruits in Texas

how can you possibly, rationally, reply with this...?
quote:

continue to try and convince yourself and others that A&M should help sip.

Or this...?
quote:

I'm saying it would benefit A&M if they played UT annually, and beat them on the reg.

The FACT of the matter is that I actually hope A&M never plays UT again, and thus never gains the upper hand for blue-chip recruits in Texas over UT. I also hope A&M never plays UT again just so we can watch y'all squirm as we accuse you of being cowards for not renewing the series.
quote:

So if that's all you're going to bring to the table I'm not sure you're contributing much original content to the discussion

Considering your poor comprehension skills, I'm sure you can't see that what I'm contributing is the fact that A&M could be better serving themselves by playing UT every year - if they could beat them more often than not.

But I've dealt with irrational fear in people before (mostly women), often due to abusive relationships, and I've noticed a general resistance to actually receiving information from external sources. So, trust me, I understand.

It could be, but it's not.

Again, it could be, but it's not.

Okay, I'll call it an inability to see how A&M could actually gain from renewing the series. But it appears that aggies have been so beaten down over the years by UT, that they can't even comprehend what beating UT would do for their own in-state recruiting.
quote:

We're still not gonna play those frickers anytime soon.

Fine. Personally, I hope that UT continues to be the major football powerhouse in Texas, and A&M continues to be an afterthought for blue-chip Texas recruits. It is what it is.

This is one hell of a thread

I almost started a thread the other day asking A&M fans who they would root for when LSU goes to Austin, but I don’t think I need to bother

Longhorns can rot. Want absolutely nothing to do with that bunch of conceited lying sobs.
