My name is Bama Bird. I'm a student at The University of Alabama and I'll be graduating in exactly a month from tomorrow. I've lived in Birmingham nearly my entire life, but I had a brief but fantastic stay in Princeton, NJ during my middle school years and I plan on going back there (or somewhere in the Northeast)- that's just where I feel I belong. I'm in the process of applying to law school, where I will enroll next Fall. I haven't actually applied yet, but I'm looking at several schools in the Northeast and Midwest. I do have a top choice and I expect I'll get in, but I'm not going to share that info here.

dabo man here. That's a Star Trek reference, BTW. I'd never heard of anyone named Dabo when I registered it.

Class of '94, married, with one kid. I'd lived in Aggieland from August 1990 to Sept 1995 (school) and then again from August 1996 to July 2013 (TAMU staff member). Living in Columbia, MO since August 2013 and ready to start looking for work.

My first Aggie football game was at Kyle Field in 1986 against Baylor. Aggie baseball is my real passion though. I've seen them play in every Big 12 town, at LSU, Ole Miss, Bama, Florida State, Miami, and so on.

My first game was OU in 1996. I remember seeing us play North Texas in Texas Stadium in 1997 too.

First Aggie game for me was our loss to Va Tech back in 2002

Offense sucked that game, but I got to go back later in the year to watch us BTHO #1 OU thanks to Kevin Mothafrickin Sumlin's offensive playcalling and Reggie McNeal doin his thing

What do you know, I googled "1986 football baylor A&M" and came up with a link to ten minutes of highlights from this game. A&M was down big and came back to win it 31-30. A very high score for a football game at that time.

I'm always amazed at what a different game it was just 25 years ago. Teams blitzed 5-6 guys EVERY play and rarely were there less than two backs in a set.

HOWDY!!!

My name is Trey Felder (yeah, my real name--idgaf......follow me on twatter @ TbirdTr3y_10 ), a.k.a., the #HNIC, and I am the loudest and proudest graduate of the PERFECT Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2010 (WHOOP!). My college was "Wehner High," Mays Business School, were I studied Marketing. Was also a member of Squadron "Thunderbird" 3 in the Corps of Cadets, and am currently on active duty in the Air Force, stationed at Whiteman Air Force Base in Knob Noster, Missouri (but living in nearby Warrensburg, MO).

I'm a second generation Aggie: my dad is retired Air Force, Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of '83, and a former member of Squadron "Gator" 2. He and my mom and 8 siblings still live in College Station. My little brother is the loudest and proudest member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2014, and is also a Mays Business School student.

My wife (username "kissedbyarose" on here--she has like 1 or 2 posts ), is FTACO '11, was also a "Tbird" in the Corps, and is also on active duty with me in MO. She was a Comm major, and we're both working on our master's degrees in Human Services: Executive Leadership through Liberty University. She lurks on here from time to time, but prefers to online shop more than anything, bless her heart

I'm a HUGE fan of the all things A&M athletics (emphasis on football), the San Antonio Spurs, the Michigan Wolverines, the Dallas Cowboys, and NASCAR (Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon ftw). If I'm not here, you can usually find me on TexAgs (same username as here), or PoundingtheRock.com (Spurs' SB nation blog--I'm also a part-time moderator over there. Real name is my username), so holler at me. The way I act on here is pretty much spot on with the way I act IRL, so what you see is what you get

Planning on finding a job back in TX (hopefully San Antonio but we'll see what God wills) after my and my wife's military commitments are over. Pray for us, if y'all believe in that.

Thanks, and Gig 'Em!

Found you on FB


Name-FleurDeLonestar
Class- 2013 Graduating in December Maritime Administration with a Minor in Economics
1st generation Ag to my knowledge but my little brothers both attend main campus.

Backstory- Originally from Texas, just west of DFW area. Attended LSU for 3 years and was in the Tigerband. Changed major from PR to business and my scholarship wouldn't cover the extra time in college. So I ended up in Galveston due to a girl I am no longer with. No regrets, and love A&M now.


With that being said, I'm looking for a job in the Houston area.


Also, Mavs fan first and foremost, then Cowboys, then Stars, then Rangers.

I had already found you on Facebook. When the SECr FB page was created, you liked a post. It was kinda obvious

Like I said, I don't hide

ETA: not that I fault anyone for remaining anonymous, either. I just know the way I post it'd be pretty damn easy for anyone to figure out who I am anyways, so I just said "frick it."

We used to have a thread here that explained stuff like this, does anyone know where it is?

People commonly switch their "favorite team" logo to whoever we're playing or the team we're playing's rival...or just a team you're trying to troll.

Yeah, basically we just change our profile team to whoever we are playing against next. It's just one of the many Aggy traditions here on the AggyArk
