So you've been obsessing about this for two days?

Get a ****ing life.

That's because you're a bigoted, ignorant snob.

I don't need to ask a old AG booleysippie. My Dad, Brother, 2 sisters, 2 brother-in laws, 2 nephews, and a son all attended or will be attending A&M. I started going to A&M when I was three ( 1966 ) and don't need some POS like you to come on here and tell me a damn thing.




My dad is in the second row, second to the right from the guy with the "D.I." hat.

Then

Now:

12 February 1939, Galveston (TX) Daily News, “Strolling the Campus” with Sam Weiner, pg. 13, col. 1:
AGGIE LAMBAST
TEXAS “ TEA-SIPPERS.”

With the ROTC struggle pouring oil on the flames, the perennial rivalry between the Longhorns and Aggies flared into a white hot fire during the week, building up the basketball game tonight between the teams in a rough climax.

The heated rivalry flared anew recently during an editorial battle between the Daily Texan campus newspaper ,and the Battalion, the Aggies’ sheet. As usual, the students at Texas have been dubbed “tea-sippers” by the droll Aggies, and to carry out the theme the Battalion editors have arranged for tea to be served to Texas students attending the game at College Station tonight.

“It really hurts us,” the Aggies said, “ to think that the tea-sippers would have to go without their beverage while they’re over here in the wilderness, so we got it arranged for them to have their tea served during the game.

The “tea-sippers” and the “tin-soldiers”—as the Texas students call the Aggies—struck up a bargain for tonight. If Texas wins, the Daily Texan writers, Pat Daniels, editor, and Clarence LaReche, sports editor, will write stories of the game for both the Daily Texan and the Battalion. If the Aggies win, however, the Battalion editors will condescend to cover the game for the “tea-sippers,” giving it that peculiar Aggie twist which proves so annoying to the Texas boys, who dislike being called “tea-sippers.”

side note. that 1939 TEXAS Longhorns basketball team was coached by the legendary Jack Gray. The Horns made it into the elite 8 in the national tourney.

The Aggies were probably listening to the tournament on the radio, giggling "teasipper"

If they were listening to it on the radio, it was only because Aggies had pioneered radio broadcasting of sports 18 years earlier

If you turn the 'horns" hand sign sideways, it looks exactly like that, sipping tea with the pinkie extended.

tsip stands for aggies can't win bowl games. Or can't win big games outside of the big 12. I'm just not sure how they get tsip out of that.

Wrong. They were at spring practice preparing to win the national championship.

"I... don't need some POS like you to come on here and tell me a damn thing."

If you are standing behind that stupid story about the teasip term originating during WWII then you apparently DO need exactly that...

You need to re-read the thread, numbnuts. I never said that. As usual your obnoxious ass misses the point.
