Kyle Filed is a memorial to washed up Aggie Head Football Coaches ...

"...defends our field from being trampled by these people..."

"...bold enough to tresspass on our field..."

"...should be bold enough to take the punishment..."

**********

I'm embarrassed for you and the entire University if you truly still believe this nonsense matters. It is condsiderably more sad than I thought on campus these days.

IT IS GRASS!

Kyle field worth protecting because 55 flags fly over it on game days commemorating the 55 Aggies killed in WWI. The turf itself to me has a more personal reason. I yell as loud as I can during the games and Ag football players play very hard. They deserve not to have the field crapped on by some drunk fans. Also, it is our. We own it. Just like you wouldnt want drunk A-holes running around in your back yard, I dont want them on our field.

Why do we have OD's then?
Would you be upset at all if our goalposts were torn down? Why??

My point is, the University employs people to handle this problem. Its not the job of some over zealous CT...

If you are dumb enough to run on an opposing team's field, you get what you deserve - of course that doesn't include drawing a sword

I remember when I was a kid, we used to go onto the field and throw the football around, man some CT missed a great oppurtunity to pummel an 8 year old. Keepers of the Spirit, where were you that day?

Actually Tekkie, the public perception will have it that it was worse than tech. The reality is that this was just one person acting on their own, not a few hundred fans who enter the field with an intent to injure.

The entire outside world will not see this as some sort of "tradition" defending act. All it looks like is... ATM loses, NU fan rushes field, ATM student and school rep. punches him for it. period.

If it is not worth defending then why do we have OD's??? What if they had gone for the goal posts, would you have cared then??

I don't know why we have OD's. Maybe its just tradition. You know at one time, the admin was concerned and they were not allowed to have sabres on the sideline.

As for the goalposts, I would hope that the appropriate security personnel would step in.

I totally agree!! Greek organizations are a joke at A&M and take a back seat to the Corps. They are going to try and turn this into something that will help advance the Greeks. At least this punch was for something unlike fighting over who gets to guard the keg a a frat party! If you don't like the Corps than you should have gone to t.u.!! A&M IS the Corps and don't forget it FRAT Daddy's!

Knock off the Greek vs. Corps B.S.! Aggies are Aggies. What happened after the game tonight should never have happened. End of story.

I see your point, but I don't have a problem with the CTs being out there to defend the field. I have a problem when they punch a guy for running out there. That guy hadn't attacked anyone - just run his ass off. All of the other Nebraska fans got off the field when the police went out there.

Just b/c it was assault doesnt mean he didnt deserve it.

This has NOTHING to do with the Corps.

This has even less to do with Frats.

However, anyone that thinks 400 square yards of grass needs to be "defended" with force following a college football game is in need of a SERIOUS reality check.

Fans should not run on the field, that is definitely wrong. However our fans should ABSOLUTELY not be punching fans that do run on the field. Two wrongs do not make a right, especially when the 2nd wrong is a crime and the first wrong is only a lapse in judgement.

Maybe it will be worth it to the kid to pay the $1000 and have a nice assualt on his record (good luck getting into graduate school or military) to say that he "defended" our field from the heathens, but I can't figure out what would possess anyone else to come on here and support that type of behavior.

Its really a simple matter.

maybe I have a little more redneck in me but why dont they issue out axe handles to the corps members? Hell aint nothing wrong with chunking a few after a loss. Go drink a few cool ones and whoop some more asssssssssssss. What is wrong with that? Its fun and relieves frustrations. Dang I was raised like that and it is in my blood . People need to express their true feelings not not deny the urge.

Whoop04,

Good you back. Now back to my question,

1. What does Kyle Field stand for?

Whoop04
How long do you want to ignore this user?
B/C a field I care very much for was being desecrated.

Bonfire03,

Do you really think an untrained 18-22 year old kid could "protect the field" without this happening. The whole "protecting the field" thing needs to go. Not because the Corps has a problem, more because it is really unrealistic to expect a student, with no Law based jurisdiction, to be able to do anything without creating a fiasco.

Did he attack anyone? Was he doing anything other than something that pisses us all off? Do you think he went out there saying "Piss on the Aggies that died! I hate A&M." I think he was saying "Holy ****, Our sorry team just beat their sorry team!"

Should he have been on Kyle? HELL NO. Did he deserve getting punched? HELL NO. If the guy had done something to the Corps member or something else beforehand, then I would have ZERO problem with that course of action. However, that did not happen, and he should have been run off the field just like everyone else.

It was assualt, and he did not deserve it.

I do not know who you are referring to, man, but think about what you just said. If you're asking me if I support A&M for hitting a NU fan for stepping on your field? Hell no, I don't. Other than that, look around, both here and on the Rivalries board, after a few humorous and sarcastic remarks after the game, conversation has been level-headed. I come here as a die-hard Big XII fan. But if you want me to show appreication and class towards this...You're crazy.

If everyone can understand that an OD drawing a sabre on some cheerleaders was wrong, then why can't everyone see that an assault is also wrong? The CT has no recourse than to watch the NU fan on the field. Period.

That person let the Corps and University down.

That person should be arrested for assault. Kick him out of school. Anyone agreeing with his actions are no better than the Soccer Hooligans in Europe.

What I saw tonight was an abomination.

anyone who believes a punch to the head is justice for an opposing fan running on the field has their priorities completely wacked out. lets be honest here, there are other ways to handle that. none of the good ways include punching an opposing fan in the face. end of discussion.

Well Whoop04 definitely passed his brainwashing class on the Quad. Geez, you are clueless. I am really worried about the type of guys the Corps must be turning out these days if you are an example.

Desecrated?

Just so I understand...he jogged onto the field to congratulate the team he loves for a huge win, right?

No, I don't think they "can" protect the field without incident. If the cops had done everything tonight, vs tu in 95, and vs SMU way back when, then we wouldn't be talked about. People win at Kyle and then say "I'm gonna rush the field to celebrate with my team, and the worst thing that can happen is I get attacked by a college student from that school and make them ALL look like dumbasses.

That's exactly what happened tonight.

Who's going to be around during the HS football playoffs, to protect dear Kyle from the onslaught of zealous high school football fans?

Does the Corp get paid overtime?
