what % of cadets in the student military @ TAMU are officially members of the US Military?


I don't see that the percentage is related to whatever fricked up point you're trying and failing to make. I'm reasonably sure that there is a cap on the number who CAN be commissioned and that A&M is at or close to that cap every year. I was one a long time ago. Obviously your main antagonist here is another.

You're unwittingly reinforcing the popular characterization of teasips as a collection of leftist loons, which I'm guessing is not your intent.

Aggots are too scared to play Texas. Even during a down period for UT. I still can't believe we brought these birches into our conference. frick Mike slive.

Cuz the eyeballs added to our overall TV package didn’t help us negotiate a better contract - right?

And this, folks, is why we have no desire to play them again. The arrogance, self-righteousness, and condescension...

If we are forced to play one of the XII schools in Texas, let's just play Tech in Jerryworld once Arkansas goes home and home.

Not really. Plus if was Slive was not a complete and utter dumbass, we would have never needed to expand anyways. That moron locked us into a bad long term contract, we had to expand to break it.

What the frick is your problem? You have a stick up your arse?

I get it. You didn't want us to join the SEC. We asked to join and were voted in. A&M wants to be here, and we feel like we should have always been here. I'm sorry you feel differently. And without us and Missouri, you'd have no SEC Network.

We wanted to keep playing tu, OOC on Thanksgiving, when we left the XII. They had no interest. Now we've moved on.

Deal with it. We are going to be around as long as there is a SEC.

Poor TAMU and Mizzou.

Nobody wants them.

Everybody hates them.

Daddy Texas wants Aggy, but Aggy is a petulant little child....so desperately wanting to be loved in the SEC...or even respected.

Really? What a poor excuse.

You think there are any heated rivalries that don't deal with all that? It's part of what make it a rivalry.

Nevusae the SEC was ruined by expansion due to incompetence leadership. And no one is willing to call Slive the incompenet moron he was. I will not get to travel to Neyland for a dozen years be use we added you Aggots in the West. The SEC is now basically two separate conferences which sucks. Of course you clowns were voted in because we were on track to lose millions without expansion. That is the only reason you are here.

Dafuq?

Let me say this again so your feeble mind can understand.

Every ROTC Cadet signs a DD (Department of Defense) Form 4/1 (Enlistment Contract into the Armed Forces of the United States) into the Reserves either their Junior year or upon accepting their ROTC Scholarship, whichever comes first. This is the same contract Academy Cadets sign, but with different stipulations.

I guess that, under your standards, Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines in the Reserves aren't real military which proves, once again, that not only have you never served, but lack the capacity to do so.

Does this mean LSU and Texas are going to get into a custody battle over the kid?


Like we get him every Thanksgiving, they get supervised visits?

This goes way beyond the football field. The Missouri/Kansas and A&M/t.u. rivalries are so toxic that in each case one side celebrates the death of members of the other side.

Missouri has yellow shirts depicting the sacking and burning of Lawrence with the word "Scoreboard" underneath.

t.u. students have shirts with a collapsed bonfire in front and a caption on the back saying "What's the matter, Aggies, can't get it up?" (I know those shirts were made in 1994, but those asshats were wearing those shirts during the 2000 game in Austin, 1 year after the fatal collapse).

Several Aggies have made comments saying or implying that "Charles Whitman didn't go far enough".

They probably should have thought about this before almost single-handedly destroying the Big12. If I were A&M I'd tell them to stop calling and block them on facebook.
