Yup - they should just update highlights and use it every year.

They haven't uploaded a new there's a spirit in years

That one is great. There are some really bad ones.

I agree, this one is the best! A few suggested updates could be the
- 1985 tu game with towels waving (a field of cotton)
- Bo Jackson goal line stop in the Cotton Bowl
- he got a touchdown, he got a touchdown,…
- Johnny's Bama moment
- LSU OT TD
- 12th man TD in the bowl game
- game winning FG against Bama

Zach coming back in game to run the ball.

Any video narrated by Optimus prime/roger creager is good.

Agree, bring it back for good, just update highlights.
Why did they ever stop it?

In reply to TxAg76 Some of the language used would be hard to translate into todays terms, like"Hard work and sacrifice"

What do you actually mean by that?!

I like them both. Shorten Creagar's part in the first one and edit back in a few things- Johnny Bama , OU or La Tech highlights, put E King Gill and 29 Dixie Classic back ( origin of the 12th Man interpose the Herbstreit comment and show full Yell Practice ), Von Myles Dat references interspaced with Wrecking Crew hits ( put the Michael Bennett Colt TKO in for the tu game ) and maybe a Mike Evans highlight ( OU or Bama game )

You've been living under a rock? Or just reach the age of majority?

According to the Smithsonian "hard work" and characteristics such as "work before play" and "delayed gratification," both of which involve personal sacrifice, are aspects of a Protestant work ethic and future orientation belonging to white culture, which "holds most of the institutional power in America"

and therefore one big f'ing no no.

This one and it's not close!

I have no idea why you posted this in an Aggie football forum, but the Smithsonian took that placard down, being that it's self-evident that Catholics, Jews, Hispanics, African Americans etc ... also exhibit these same characteristics.

Smithsonian: We goofed

In reply to Definitely Not A Cop Yup, that's the best "there's a spirit" video.
This is by far the best ad campaign we've had and was killed way too prematurely.

Jock 07 and OP nailed my two favorites. Both equally as good, but different.

To modernize just add…

Gillespia running it in.
LSU overtime win
Bama Kick
Manziel Heisman

In reply to Jock 07 Thanks for sharing! That was very good. What year was that ad made and used? Since becoming an Aggie dad, I've always thought the Aggie ads/promotions could be much better.

idiots. it can ne'er be told
