How toxic are we talking?

Is there still a shirtless kid dancing, pissing off all the olds?

I can't remember a worse Aggie Athletics disaster when the hype was as high as it was.

Actively have to be trying to perform this poorly.

What turns this team around?

Hasn't felt toxic at all.

It's definitely deflated when we're not hitting.

The kid was there today.

Per usual BAS, fans always shows up. Players, however do not.

I've been to 3 games this year and I thought the atmosphere was terrible. The walk up songs are lame, there's nothing happening in the field that's worth cheering for, and Olsen suddenly looks old and run down for some reason. It's amazing how we've gone from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows in less than a year.

Granted, we lost two of the three games I attended, so maybe I'm not the best measuring stick. I'll be there Tuesday vs. TAMU-CC, so hopefully it will be better.

It was fantastic last week for Saturday and Sunday. We sat with the Raggies. My kids and wife had a blast. And I could hear them on my tv all weekend. Seems like usual.

I will say it appeared the gumps seemed like asses when they were on tv. Noticed a lot of their fans doing things that sure looked like they were trying to start stuff with Sect 203. I get that the Raggies tend to piss off the visiting fans especially when they don't understand that most of it is for fun. But this seemed like a lot of Gumps talking ***** Again, only can see what I see on tv. Last week and older woman (NMST fan) told one Raggie student to "get a life" when all he was doing was walking by them to head down to the concourse the go to the bathroom. We got a kick out of that.

Last Friday was phenomenal atmosphere.

The game we played with Mustard pitching was absolute chaos in the best way.

If you think Olsen looks old and run down, visit the disch.

Yeah, some gump tried to talk **** to my kids yesterday when they were leaving. Something about "y'all aren't embarrassed to be wearing those jerseys"

Before I could say anything, Malcolm told him "at least I don't have to live in Alabama"

It really is. Say whatever you want to me but leave the kids out of it. Apparently they've picked up **** talking somewhere though.

Well Tamu-cc managed to get one coach fired this year.

I was there during the 2023 season and it was better than I expected. Based on what I'd read on TexAgs, I was expecting backed up toilets, seats ripped out of the concrete, and no electricity.

Plus, it's easy to overlook a rundown stadium when you have a bunch of national championship banners on the outfield wall.

The ladies room looked like a 1970s high school and only part of the toilets worked by post game. It's an absolute dump with few if any of the amenities everyone here seems to want

They do have better concessions (food and prices) though.

The Disch is outdated and they haven't hung a banner in 20 years. None of the kids playing were alive then.

Went to my first game today in many years and it was lame. Everything is piped in and fake. Even the prayer is fake. And no meaningful stats on the giant scoreboard.

"Haven't hung a banner in 20 years" is a weird flex coming from a fan base that has never hung a banner ever.

You know that's how most prayers at stadiums are, right? Nominally Christian, hope everyone is safe, Amen. What are you really expecting?

And what's piped in that hasn't been in the past? We're not adding fake crowd noise.

And I'm sorry, but that's about as religious as you're gonna get from TAMU, being a public, non-Christian school and all.

How does a team quit on a coach they basically chose?

It just doesn't make any sense.

I'm not at all a violent person, but that might have set me off. People talking trash to little kids is truly the lowest form. GREAT comeback by Malcolm!

The 4:00 start (which translates to me getting back to WF around midnight) caused me to miss Sunday, but I was really surprised that so many people stuck around to the bitter end on Saturday. The atmosphere is muted for sure, but it's not poisonous, at least on the first base side. I've yet to hear to many fans lashing out in person the way they do online.

There was one guy Saturday in 101 that was getting close to the line but he finally either left or the guy with him shushed him.

It's the ugly temporary bleachers.

That's definitely part of it. But also, the video board had mechanical issues with sections not working, the padding on the outfield wall looked old and faded, and the field itself looked worn out (I miss Leo...)

Maybe it was just early season, cruddy weather type stuff, but I really don't recall Olsen looking this aged and dreary in years past.
