I always said howdy to the hotties



I would say howdy then snatch a quick glance as soon as they walked by, especially on leggings day


I miss leggings so much. No one wears those to work



Not even on casual Fridays

I never thought that I would see orange bevels until today. How did this one get by marketing and licensing? I thought that Oklahoma State had a monopoly on orange and black halloween colors, but now you can purchase the beveled logo in these colors. The aTm may look dark maroon on your monitor, but it is in fact black.

The Classic Block aTm is usually represented with maroon on white or white on maroon. It seems like the four trapezoid bevels give vendors an opportunity to get cute with our logo. Sometimes simple is better... classic and collegiate is the standard for every SEC logo except for our beloved Bevel.

The bevel has been around for what a century or more? I give this thread a big melodramatic "YAWN". I would much rather we focus REALLY issues like fielding a good basketball team, improving our academic standing and reputation, etc. Those are the things that reflect our university.

I don't get this it must be one or the other. If you don't like the bevel, don't wear it- but don't force your personal bias on everyone.

I would like to personally thank Old Main for making me love the bevel more and more, every single day.

I'm not a fan of the "r" word, but agree that the seal does not need to be changed.

This is not a solely a bevel issue, this is a "why break something that' works?" issue. I would be against a change to a non-beveled logo as well.

The bevel lovers in the administration simply kept warming the pot and the frogs stayed in it. Now we are about to be boiled, will we be able to jump out?

You're "fighting" a losing battle. You'll lose the battle, and the war. You push for more block, they gave you more bevel.

Your statement insinuates that if they would use a block T with A and M, you would approve.

Hasn't Jason Cook gotten his ego stroked enough by sticking this abomination on every thing in a 100 mile radius of campus?

And furthermore, why the change? Seals and logos are not supposed to be the same design to begin with, for goodness sake. Seals are supposed to be formal looking for a reason, and not like something that was copied off a t-shirt at Wal-Mart.

What next - Replace the eagle in the ring crest with a beveled t?

If this momentous occasion can bring that piece of **** 12th Ag back, we'll have the trifecta of overly emotional, melodramatic ***** posters in old main, scotch and that ***** 12th Ag back together...

Glad y'all are using the 'r word' now since half of this thread is actually old main and 12th Ag playing they holier than thou "please stop using personal insults" card

Surely theyre not ignoring old main's e-mails, letters, fedex packages; after all, he thought joining the SEC was a good idea.

Im sure jason cook has assigned his top student worker to open old main's mail

Old Main is right. This is similar to the ones that want to play tu again. They just dont get it. And never will. Some of you clowns have got to suffer from lack of long term memory. tu imploded from within. We could possibly be on the same track if someone doesnt wake up and see the subtle stuff thats going on. This is fastly becoming not the A&M that so many remember. You youngsters better get a clue and some of you olds better wake up. Jason Cook has been good at some things. But this one, if he has the power to change it, has not been a good decision on his part. Maybe his success went to his head and he thinks that everything he does is a good idea. Well this wasnt it. I just hope someone with sense can get things back in line, and stop letting a bunch of non Aggies make these kind of decisions. Specially on the board.
