The only people who don't think 5* players are important don't have any.

A triple negative? Wow! Impressive.

Impressively stupid, but impressive nonetheless.

Man, y'all don't know the half of it.  Those goofy stand-up routines they do at their yell practices are the most normal of any of their rituals... err, I mean, traditions.
i, for one, am mostly blaming you and other longhorns. you were supposed to keep them in their little corner. instead, you let them out into the sec and the rest of the world. it's your fault.

No offense to our good friend Gigem, but I find it amusing that the rest of the world is just now finding out how weird and cult-like the ags are.  For decades, outsiders always told me "you just say that because they're a rival."

Oh no, I saw it right away at my first game there.  2004, A&M vs. OU, a freshman Adrian Peterson was running buck-wild on them, and they're all busy sawing the horns off.  

I looked at one guy near me flashing the horns-down and I thought to myself "If the team is anything like the fans, they might find more success if they'd focus less on UT and more on the team currently whipping that ass on the field right now."  

They've horns-downed us every time we've played since joining the conference.  I bet they did it in the old ooc-rivalry days too and I just didn't know it.  

I'm like "How the hell do you saw the horns off a tiger?"  I either suck at tigrine anatomy or aggies are just dumb.

I've had my fair share of experiencing  Aggieland traditions, three visits to Kyle and a variety of other exposure via wedding, friends and colleagues and even road game Yell Practices.  They have no peer.  I say that all while saying Kyle Field is the best stadium in college football. 


Pffft.

One tradition the aggies have is kissing your date every time they score

I always liked that one

Cults do have their uses.  

I worked in College Station for just over a year and came to believe that the men must've been moxie-deficient because every time I paid a little attention to a cute girl they acted starved for actual testosterone.  Like, I'm talking about girls who were generally way out of my league.  

25 4 Heisman once said he used to participate in some kind of soccer league or something that traveled to College Station for games and had basically the same experience.  

If the cult neuters its men and makes its girls desperate and dumb, well....it wasn't always a bad thing.

I've met her.  

See the other post.  

She's out of his league too.  

Like I said, cults have their bright spots.

Definitely.  

Texas girls always let me punch above my weight class, and she is a Texas girl.  One of those mysteries of life.  Louisiana girls were not very enamored with me, neither were the Georgia girls when I lived in Macon a couple of years as a teenager.  I assume it's the same for all 49 states NOT named Texas.

Considering who they're about to play, I agree.

We got so many good lookin' girls in this state, there's plenty to go around.

But don't move here.
