I graduated from The University of Texas in 2006. My brother on the other hand immediately went on 1 tour In Afghanistan and 2 tours in Iraq. He never went to college.

He grew up watching Texas football and has always cheered for them. He has family that graduated from Texas, but he himself never went to college.

I truly do not understand why Aggies make such a huge deal about this. Like, In yalls opinion, he literally is not allowed to cheer for his childhood team because he never "sniffed a classroom". Lame.

And I'm sure I'm going to get hated responses and justifications for why some Aggies feel like this, but Its still lame.

Btw, Texas enrolls over 50k students per year. I understand this is less than A&M, but don't you think this number equates to Texas actually having some alumni out there somewhere? Does every single person who is a fan of Texas seriously have to be a T-shirt fan?

I don't have a problem when t-shirt fans talk football. But so many of them think it's ok to insult other aspects of a school. Being a fan of a football team does not give anyone the right to to insult others who actually went to the school they root for. I know a t-shirt sip that insults Aggies and calls them stupid for being Aggies because he's a "Longhorn" and better. This guy never graduated high school and the only education he received was from the 10 years he spent in prison. When I think t-shirt sip, I picture him.

What if your brother was a missing chromosome Woody Harrelson looking, brain dead noodle armed dildo who went to Concordia but spends every waking moment trolling TexAgs?

I had a couple of high school friends who went to A&M Commerce who would talk **** to me about A&M. One a wannabe longhorn and the other a wannabe sooner.

The irony was lost on them.

Please proceed to eat a big ol' bag of sweaty dicks. Have a good evening.

As is pointed out here, T Shirt fans are allowed to root for their team of choice. Trash talking the merits of rival schools crosses a line. In the S.E.C., no one values the opinion of the high school dropout LSU fan as to the merits of U.F. degree, as an example.

Definitely don't have a problem with a non-grad cheering for a team. The "t-shirt fan" term really belongs more to the mouth breathers. Graduates tend to behave differently than non-grads. One example I will give (since I live in Arkansas) is when Petrino got fired from Arkansas. I have yet to meet a UofA grad that had an issue with it, because they value the schools image as a university. However, I have met a lot of non-grads that are still pissed that he was fired because they couldn't care less what happened to the school. To them it's just a team. They aren't forever linked to the university because of a diploma. They can switch loyalties without blinking an eye.

Root for who you want.

Your brother is a great man.

You can literally suck a dick.

Ktb

Tell your f@@@@ing brother thank you for his service and I damn well would buy him a drink and food but once he started talking tu football like he went there I would s@@t in his meal. Also you freaking queer why are you on texags did the other ******s kick you off of the tu board

Is this to much hate

Being a t-shirt fan isn't what we laugh at. It's being a t-shirt fan who talks smack to actual A&M grads as if they are somehow actual sips.

F*** em up, Muy.

Since I am Hispanic, is it ok for me to also bring up the Messy cans that root for tu to try to fit in?

I laugh at tee shirt sips because most of the time they are dumbasses. Out of all the tee shirt sips I know, only one graduated college and that was Concordia. He only does his tee shirt sip stuff because his daddy went to t.u.

The biggest dumbass tee shirt fan I know talks baylro trash, and he is friggin high school drop out.

No ill feelings about someone rooting for the horns. Everyone seeks their own level. You get what you give.

Your comment: "he himself"...what? You graduated and typed "he himself"? That doesn't seem like the syntax of a genuine UT graduate. I'll chalk this up to typing on a mobile phone. Same with "yalls".

Your brother is perfectly/certainly "allowed" to cheer for whomever/whoever/whatever he wants. I don't care. Nobody cares. Why do you care, vicariously?

Enrollment statistics, e.g usNews rankings, etc, is a dumb criteria to select a school to attend (or be a fan of). One site I ran across in the last 6-12 months (I think it was Money Magazine, but I'm not certain) had an interesting feature to allow personalization of characteristics that matter to a prospective candidate. The web page enabled a user to prioritize his/her preferences relative to school's reputation/leanings. That site/utility is likeley (should be) *way* more valuable to anyone/everyone than other ridiculous "ranking" sites.

IMO, what a person does after their formative years (HighSchool, College, Military, LEO, Business, etc) defines a person's worth/value, and not something so trivial as their college attendance/affiliation.

First of all, if you aren't a level 1 troll and your brother actually served, he would throat punch you for coming on a rival board to defend his t shirt honor.

Secondly, he doesn't give 2 ****s about a football team, when his real team is got blown up in a foreign combat zone.

Thirdly, you are a pathetic dewsh who doesn't understand anything about life. When push comes to shove, we would stand arm to arm with all Texan/Longhorn/American/ Brothers, whilst you hide behind internet username.

*******.

When's that trip to Kansas, so I'll know when you are no longer going to post on this board?

your brother sounds cool and more of a fit with Texas A&M. He can be one of our fans anytime.

Stopped reading after the sentence starting with, "Like, ..." followed by "... literally ...".

You just outed yourself as a 12 year-old girl, "Mando".

T-shirt Aggie here with a very similar situation to your brother. Have generations of Aggies in my family (distant cousin was actually the first President of A&M) been going to Aggie games since the 80s, but my wife got preggers before I made it to A&M, I joined the service and off to Bosnia I went. Since I never graduated from college I don't smack talk anything beyond sports and entrance standards. I have no right to look down on the degrees of my tsip friends and family because I have no degree.

stevo, we all know you aren't very bright. As far as baylro, we kicked those ******* asses when we were in high school and then screwed their girlfriends. The female students didn't like the baylro guys cause they were wimps, and screwed the locals so no one on campus would know they were ****s.

Stereotypical Tsip is stereotypical. "My brother served in the military...and I went to tu".

I had to deal with one of their alumni on my honeymoon in Colorado who confronted me as I was exiting the hotell elevator. No matter where you meet them, they're just as trashy, and classes as their t-shirt fans.

Another T-shirt Aggie here. Two uncle's and a sister graduated from Texas A&M, I did not. I cheer on the Ags in all sports, we attend home and away games.Our oldest son is at SRSU, and I hope my younger boys will be fortunate enough to become Aggies. I am a T-shirt fan but I would never wear Aggie gear and do anything to disrespect your university or team. I give people, like chosen one, crap because I just can't understand how a grown man can make the effort to go to another teams website and post as much as he does. I just don't have the time between work, the zoo, and refreshing the who's the mom in the Dr. Pepper commercial thread to give any other university any of my time.

Degree or no degree, I will always respectfully cheer for and support the Ags.

He can cheer for whoever he wishes. However if he has a whole house decorated in orange and bumper stickers on his car, then I think it is super strange. Also I do think it precludes any sort of "Aggies are stupid" or "WE beat the ..... ", or really any sort of smack talk.

He did his time in the military, good for him. I cannot say Navy is better than Army or any nonsense like that to him, because I did not participate. The problem on here is people show up on this site who went to Northeast Texas Community College, BUT they are "a life long fan" even though they did not have enough love or desire to do what it takes to go be a longhorn. So they are going to get their teeth kicked in when they go to a rivals website and talk noise.

They are easy targets and when you play stupid games, you get stupid prizes.

Glad your brother enjoys college football, but he has to sit on the sidelines for sh!+ talking.

Of course your brother can root for whichever team he wants to. However, a t-shirt fan talking smack to a graduate is like a person with no children giving parenting advice to someone with three kids.

I have almost no respect for someone who graduated from another university and is festooned with longhorn gear (looking at you Texas State grads).

Absolutely you can. Went to S.A. this weekend and went to Papasitos to eat. Amazing how many I saw with brand new t-sip shirts and hats now that they are winning a few games. Happens every time.

I have no problem with a t-shirt fan. But when they start ragging on Texas A&M I waste no time informing them of the fact that my law degree from what I affectionately call "that trade school in Austin" means I have more degrees and hours from "their school" than Jordan Spieth, Kevin Durant and whatever jackass I am talking to have, combined.

This x 1,000,000. There is a guy here who constantly rags on me about being an Aggie. He will go out of his way to talk **** about A&M while always wearing something repping the sips. He never took a class there. In fact, he graduated from St. Ed's and got a law degree from some law school in Michigan I've never heard of.

I never mind talking football with anyone, no matter who they root for. Respect me and the fact I am an Aggie graduate and I will respect you and whoever it is you root for. Just don't be THAT guy referenced above.

Tell your brother to quit being a batch and use his Post 9/11 GI Bill to go to that school in Austin if he wants to be a true fan.

FFS, OP... get over yourself.

Ask you brother how he would feel about someone who never served (but was a big fan of a different branch of the military because he had lots of family members who served there) who tried to talk trash about his branch of the military.

Wrong. He can root for the longhorns and wear their gear all he wants. No harm, no foul. It becomes a problem when he starts identifying himself as a longhorn and talking trash to graduates of other schools.

Of course not, but actual Texas grads tend to not talk the same kind of trash as the t-shirt fans and after a while it becomes fairly easy to tell the difference.
