Roper84 got a reaction from whatnamecanipick in I Want My SEC Network....
So we're brothers from a different mother.
I've sat through too many renditions of "POOR AGGIES.....POOR AGGIES.....POOR AGGIES".
It's burned in my soul, won't go away.
Therefore the Hatred strong dislike will last forever.

Is Kyle Field going to be larger than DKR in its final configuration?
If it is, we will cut the seat size down by two inches. Then the Aggies can spend another billion dollars to have the biggest.

I must confess: I root for whoever is playing horns.
When it comes to obnoxious fan base, it takes one to know one. -

Hate is a strong word. You have confused hate with a dislike of an obnoxious fan base.
I also never boo anyone. I normally just cheer for the Ags opponent and on those rare occasions when the Ags win, I simply do something else. For the most part, that has worked out just swell. -

Finally an Aggie starting to make sense. I have hope Old Timer.
And not hiding behind the SEC.

Yes expectations are HUGE at Texas - and that is because of its storied past - The fact is that Texas and it's fans do not like to lose. Texas A&M whether Aggie's wish to admit it or not do have lower expectations - but those expectations are growing and I believe that the mediocrity accepted at times in the past will not be allowed to last long at A&M any longer either. A&M has taken huge steps to to close the gap between Texas and Texas A&M - what has happened to Texas is that Texas A&M, Baylor, Texas Tech and other have all closed the gap on Texas and Texas is feeling that in its W-L as well as recruiting. Texas is losing recruits to Baylor, Texas A&M, Texas Tech and other that they never really had to fight for in the past - and in a lot of cases they are losing to the other schools.
I have stated and will continue to state that Texas up until the 1980's was - without a doubt - the best program in the State of Texas hands down. But since that time - with the notable exception of the 2005 - 2009 seasons is suffering from all the other programs closing the gap on Texas. A&M benefited greatly from the move to the SEC - as I have stated we will have to see over 10 - 20 years how that pays off for them - in Dollars it already has and in national recognition it has already paid off. Will it pay off in Wins we all will have to wait and see.
I have also stated that Texas will be back - but I believe that they will not be able to hold the year in and year out title of the best team in the great State of Texas as they will have to share that title more often than they are willing to admit with Baylor, Texas A&M, Texas Tech and perhaps from time to time TCU and Houston.
Remember the "Got Milk" comment as you may have to drink a lot if A&M can do what I think they can and come close to matching the 2012 season - I have heard from a player (friend of my son and not a starter) at A&M that the defense is greatly improved from last year - it will have to be for A&M to have a chance at even a decent season.

Am I a hater?
I am very anxious to watch A&M this year. It will be very interesting, to say the least. Got Milk?

I will have to agree. The first naked girl I ever saw was at Hippy Hollow. Not a pretty sight even as a 10 year old. -

He's a proud graduate of Southwest Texas State like Fat Ketch. -

Do not know when PhatMack19 was born - but since I graduated High School in 1974 (and really cared about the record) the record is 19 wins and 19 losses - not much of the annual beat down since that time. You want to go back then yes before that date Texas ruled the playing field between the 2 schools - I will admit that - not that it matters to me.
As always you will state that I choose an arbitrary date and that Texas ruled before that date - no argument here - Texas did rule the games in the ancient times no doubt - but us Aggie's like to live more in the current time as (1) it serves our arguments better; (2) it is in a time that that playing field has leveled out in the state between all teams; and (3) I do not have to research the archives to get my facts.

No exceptions, unless you are a starter I guess. Those 3rd string guys better not screw up though!

They are currently playing civil rights shows on the LHN. Maybe they will have live updates from Ferguson next? I would rather watch news stations for that and watch my sports on sports channels.
I've heard cooking with Augie is great TV though. If Direct Tv ever picks up LHN, I may have to watch that one. -

I think we will use the youth excuse that tu has been using for years.
In all seriousness, if the defense is near as bad as last year Snyder has to be gone as DC. With that offense, A&M just needs an average defense to win a lot of games.
