I have to face the fact that A&M will never be what it was in the 80s of the SWC with Jackie. That's where I began my fan-ship as a kid because my cousin who I've always looked up to went to A&M back then. That 80s run made me think A&M was something special in terms of a winning football program. The sooner I learn the past is the past, the sooner I can watch games with no expectations. And that time is now.
The problem is Texas A&M

Stop ****ing caring about Aggie football. It's not worth it … and hasn't been for a long while. Care about good / great college football. Adopt this philosophy, and you'll watch less college football (the caliber of which has dramatically fallen) and very little (if any) Aggie football. Your time can and will be spent on much better endeavors. And it is worth noting that you will probably live longer as well. STOP BUYING TICKETS AND MERCHANDISE !!! There is no need to advertise your stupidity. Starve the money-grubbing monster. When you stop enriching the program, including paying for the privilege of purchasing tickets, the big dogs will notice very quickly. Until then, they are playing all of you like fools, and you are complicit in this charade.
You lose your humanity if you boo? Jesus. Calm down with the dramatics and quit with the clutching of pearls. These professional coaches and players need a heavy dose of reality when they don't produce. And if booing helps in that then so be it. Enough of this Boy Scout, good ol' Ag BS. Elko the millionaire and his gaggle of highly paid professional athletes need to just f'ing win.General Jack D. Ripper said:taylorswift13_ said:
For F's sake you have Aggies in the stands lecturing you if you boo someone
How would booing help this program? People express their displeasure and disappointment well enough on this site.
Why do you want to lower yourself to win some football games? Is that an adequate trade? You lose your humanity acting like a fool booing everything and cussing out players, coaches and refs in front of your family.
Let's just assume that acting like a jackass will help the team win. So what? You didn't win anything. Some kids with zero prior affiliation with the school, who will leave for more money, did.
Lose your humanity if you boo...... the loser Aggie mindset in perfect form. Thank you.

I didn't become an Aggie for the entertainment the school provides.
we roll into Death Valley or Austin next year and our team is getting booed, heckled at, yelled at, but when teams come to Kyle Field we for some reason we are supposed to HISS at them… Hiss??? A referee makes a bad call what do we do, we hiss at them. That'll teach them!General Jack D. Ripper said:taylorswift13_ said:

Well, you lose something. You think you can just go to a football game and act like a fool, booing and cussing and being rude to people. Do you act like this in other area of life? Do you boo and ***** when someone with 20 items uses the express checkout lane? What other area of your life is it acceptable to act like that?
Go ahead and act like a child and embarrass yourself for a stupid game.

Need to lose all nicknames such as wrecking crew or maroon goons. Aggie football sucks and if it becomes good again, new nicknames will be in order

Hate to beat the dead horse but until fans vote with their feet and wallet, nothing will change. 30k - 40k empty seats will get the attention of the powers that be. Nothing will change until then because there is no incentive to do otherwise. The fans and donors are taken for granted

I spoke to your silliness about booing. I made no mention of cursing or being rude to people. Apples to oranges there big guy.
Booing a millionaire coach and his assortment of highly paid athletes is socially acceptable. It's been a method of expressing displeasure in a public setting for millennia. What better way to let them know the product they are producing is unsatisfactory? I suppose you'd write a sternly worded email, grandpa?
Again.... booing leads to losing your humanity. God, the good ol' Ag mindset is so f'ing tiresome.

This post is spot on. We need to quit treating Kyle Field as the equivalent of Field of Dreams. 30k - 40k empty seats will get the university's attention. The clowns at the TMF and big cigars have done enough damage.
I know NOTHING!!!!
the reason A&M is stuck at 8-4 is because the program gets a lot of "good" but very little "great"
AgTex96 said:
It's not coaching. It's not the program. It's Texas A&M. The way the whole place is run. The culture. All of it.
If the way you judge a university is by its football program, then your priorities are royally out of whack. Texas A&M is so much more.
There is more to life than football.
Coaches, but only to an extent.Dark_Knight said:
Wtf does the school have anything to do with this? It's coaches.

It's funny how we gas lit each other into thinking a hiss is "classy" but a "boo" is not. It's the same as people who think there's a difference between the words "dookie" and "s***." Well, this program should get booed until it's no longer dookie.

We are a soft fan base, soft administration, we care more about how we treat other teams, we care more about players who aren't elite whatsoever, but we're told they're amazing. We care more about honoring traditions, and having males be our cheerleaders. We care more about being nice. We don't care about winning, we seriously don't. A&M has non football minds making the football decision because they have money. For all the flack we give tu for letting their donors run the program, our program is worse when it comes to that. And we have Aggie media telling us every off season how this team is stronger, more physical, faster, and how the culture is completely different. This year is going to be different… nothing has changed and nothing will change. We are soft and we are not serious about winning.
I think more than all of that, we care more about "being classy" than "being winners".
Of course, not focusing on classy does not mean cheating. We should absolutely not cheat. But we love to virtue signal about how much of gentlemen we are.
Gentlemen do not get anything. Not even women these days, who want bad boys.

A quick little reply to you isn't exactly wasting my time. I'm not going to make some long drawn out post to refute your butthurt feelings because that would be a waste of time.

A&M is the Moral Victory Champions of all time. We care more about the pageantry and if the 12th man showed up...
"sounded great on TV..." till we lost.
Except for 2012 and 2020 each season has been just like this. Or worse.
