Mikes worlds are colliding.

MikeWaters 03-17-2008 12:38 AM

I enjoy rooting against the Aggies just because the fans are so entitled and delusional. It's great entertainment.

TripletDaddy 03-17-2008 12:42 AM

Wow, there is a pic of my SIL in one of those threads. Boo. Where do they get these things?

I now hope Texas A&M and vicinity gets burned to the ground (mike's family excepting).

And yet us Ags are WRONG in making fun of you. What a classy post, how dare us. Show me a post where we want BYU to burn to the ground.

At any rate, look for threads about Mormons prior to the date we realized we played BYU and you WILL NOT find anything. That's because it's game week. Texags.com would be full of smack talk about our opponent regardless of who we are playing. You guys are making it sound like we talk about BYU, or Mormons, all the time, not true, again, we play BYU this week, that is all.

Mike is trying to make things worse and he is being laughed at over on Texags.com, you other guys should be laughing at him too.:rolleyes:

So because its a game week you guys are justified in mocking ones religion? In that case its a game week so we are justified in talking about you burning your own students to death and not knowing how to build something as simple as a bonfire. Dont worry after this week we wont talk about it any longer, but its a game week and all smack talk is fair game.

You guys are 100% pussies that can't and won't tolerate divergent points of view.

Is it okay for you guys to act like bigots and slam one's personal and sacred religious beliefs?

Note: That is a yes or no question so don't spin around the answer. Thanks in advance.

For what it's worth, I don't think Triplet Dad really wants Texas A&M to burn to the ground. I'm pretty sure he was joking, although he likely wasn't thrilled to see a family member's picture being mocked on your message board.

Bullshit. Slamming Mormons is a pastime over on your Religion and Philosophy board.

I have a friend who is a Mormon Aggie, and we were complaining over here about some sort of anti-Mormonism, and he said "that is nothing like what you will read on Texags.com ". And he was right. Aggies take it to a whole different level.

Nice try.

OK, if it is only due to rivalry week, then no worries.

As far as Im concerned, we are cool now.

In fact, do you have any plans for this summer? Let's meet up at Burning Man this year. Should be a good one.

livecoug 03-18-2008 08:56 PM

their Mormon smack is relegated to what they have been taught by South Park and a cartoon on youtube. Quite sad.

Well I doubt this site usually has this many A&M related threads, so yeah, chalk it up to game week. If you feel the need to make jokes about burning/dead students, have at it.

Simple bonfire? So simple no other universities built them. And A&M didn't build your simple high school bonfires, they went way over the top, and had for a century with no issues.:rolleyes:

During game week - YES (since it is apparently okay to make fun of dead students, and there is an abundance of A&M threads on the BYU site)

Any other time - NO

Problem is you were asking me to speak for Ags as a whole. I personally don't/haven't made fun of Mormons. My boss is one. He's very liked.

MikeWaters 03-18-2008 09:36 PM

TexasAg, what if we banned you and then had a huge thread ripping on you?

Is that how you think things should operate?

During a game week it's okay to be a bigot. Thanks for clearing that up.

MikeWaters 03-18-2008 09:38 PM

Rocky, don't bother with the mouth-breathers.

I know there a few non-Cretins on Texags. but safe to say that most of them could make a openly sheep-loving Neanderthal blush.

Sure, if you want to generalize. It's not as if there isn't smack going on in both directions, why is being a bigot so much worse? Truth is it isn't, making fun of people that died is, IMO.

The fame, if you will, of Texags.com is it's biggest problem. There are thousands of registered users that can make threads and start topics. So when some rogue posters go off the deepend, it looks like EVERYONE feels the same way. Truth is it is not the norm, just like there aren't normally this many A&M threads here on this Cougar site, at least I doubt there are.

I died. Shot to death by a mob with blackened faces.

p.s. blackened faces is something Aggies know about

I take it you are not familiar with the R&P section on Texags. It rips on Mormons 24/7 365.

MikeWaters 03-18-2008 09:50 PM

Also, TexasAg, perhaps you can tell me how many people ripping on Mormons were banned on TexAgs like I was.

Thanks in advance.

go to the 'Forums' page and look at the number of topics and posts for that forum compared to the most popular ones. It is full of only those that want to talk about religion, which is a small population of the Texags.com posters.

This is where you are being conveniently myopic, although perhaps not maliciously so.

It isnt the presence of rogue posters that gives the appearance of groupthink bigtory over at that site.

It is the LACK of condemnation of these rogue posters on the part of "thousands of registered users." The silence over there is, in essence, deafening in its support of the bigotry.

And now for my obligatory Bonfire reference: aTm is going to get torched on Thursday! Prepare to get crushed!

TexasAg 03-18-2008 10:29 PM

do you not realize how much on this site has been posted that I am surprised was 'allowed'? Again, when it's your OWN, it's okay, at least apparently. Again, that forum that possesses all the threads Mike is talking about is one of the smaller ones, so your groupthink logic is not valid. The 'A&M Football', 'A&M Basketball', 'Rivalries', and 'General Board' are the most popular and most populated forums, so if they were running rampant with rogue Anti-mormon haters then yeah, your groupthink comment would hold more water. Truth is, a majority of the Texags.com posters don't even realize those bigotry topics exist.

this is an open forum where posts and users are infrequently banned.

There is more freedom on this site than any other BYU sports forum, and certainly a lot more freedom than Texags.

We don't censor like Texags does. That's our prerogative.

then why is one of this site's posters razzing me about 'lack of condemnation' :rolleyes:

he wants heads to roll over there, but likes the freedom to say whatever here, got it, sounds hypocritical

Oh, we condemn all the time over here.

We just rarely censor.

We had a guy post a racist rant. We condemned him. We didn't ban him.

We have a born-again dude who is on a mission to destroy Mormonism who posts here. We condemn him. We don't ban him.

Kind of an interesting concept isn't it.

Btw, if it appears that we are smarter on this website than texags, it is because, yes, we are indeed smarter.

TexasAg 03-18-2008 10:46 PM

smarter? right. I'll take the popularity of Texags.com over the so called 'smarts' I've seen here.

We are the off-shoot of another site, which is kind of oppressive and totalitarian like Texags, but to a much smaller degree.

This site, cougarboard, actually is about equal to texags in traffic recently. I looked it up on alexa.com.

We don't aim to be big and stupid. (hmm, that sounds kind of like A&M).

TexasAg 03-18-2008 10:51 PM

so you aim for small and hypocritical and obsessive of other sites, got it

TexasAg 03-18-2008 10:56 PM

how so?

if I count the number of topics he's started about A&M just in the last few days then my 'obsessive' comment is completely justified, so please tell me how i'm losing.
