No more TCU Lettermen's Association....

[Punter1]

Perhaps they should have come up with several names and let the Lettermen/women vote on the best choice.

Educational institutions aren't democracies...

But I agree. Block T probably woulda finished 11th behind Frog Factor Club.

I bet Angela Stanford was complaining again.

Letterman didn't fit her? Surprising.

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

Block T sounds like some Low T cause or treatment I would see an infomercial for at 2 am on Spike TV in 2007 after watching Cops reruns for 3 hours straight.

Sells well in Lubbock.

 

[Opintel]

Incredible. This is some of the stupidest [ Finebaum ] I've ever seen.

 

[Horny4TCU]

Block T is exactly what they are doing... Taking the nuts away from all the former lettermen and frog fans and making them conform to this PC Propaganda.

 

[Frognosticator]

Why didn't they change it to "LetterPersons Association"?

Because it discriminates against numbers, duh.

 

[Endless Purple]

Really surprised they came up with Block T to use. As soon as 1 current or former player is caught with drugs, slapping a girlfriend or even defends a friend in a bar fight - We get Cell Block T from everyone of our opponents. The name is so easy and close to a detrimental term especially how it can be used as a bad stereotype for minorities from low income neighborhoods.

I have no tie in to it as an athlete, but I would think something else could be better.

That designation 'Block T' sounds as if it might be related to some form of constipation.

That designation 'Block T' sounds as if it might be related to some form of constipation.

Don't worry. The dinner menu at Official Gatherings will consist of Vegan oatmeal and prune juice...

Low T is the more common TV commercial.

missed opportunity to just change this to Letterkenny Association to please everyone

 

[YA]

Big old yawn. But I do like to see all the old men get all up in arms about this subject.

 

[flyfishingfrog]

So am I know a LetterBlock instead of a Letterman?

 

[JugbandFrog]

Just wait until future generations complain that T underrepresents female as it is the first letter in Testosterone

 

[Punter1]

I just don't understand their timing . They announced this on the Eve of one of the most contentious presidential elections of all time where one of the main issues being voted on is Cancel-Culure... Where at least half of the country including our members is tired of it.

Couple that with a frustrated fan baseDue to our football team under performing,I'm just at a loss why they picked right now to do this.

Had they done this in the middle of July hardly anybody would have probably even noticed.

 

[Paint It Purple]

This Block T thing reminded me of a dog I once had. I got her as a pup while still in college at TCU. Back then, seniors if you’d already lettered got a parting gift so to speak. Choose a watch or a 100% wool purple blanket with the block T on it. I chose the blanket. Many years later, one day at the farm, there was an accident with the old Farmall tractor. That afternoon, old BEAR was buried wrapped lovingly in that Block T blanket.

Before I read what was going on, I was fully expecting to think that it was a bunch of dumb ass right wingers overreacting.

But man this is so scheissing stupid.

 

[South Texas Frog]

Big old yawn. But I do like to see all the old men get all up in arms about this subject.

Not sure if I qualify as an “old” man (Class of 05) but I’m a Lifetime Member of the Lettermen’s Association and this is ridiculous. Not mad at you, TCU...just disappointed.

 

[BABYFACE]

We have lost our minds.

The older I get, now in my 50’s, I have seen society move forward and now backwards. Maybe the movie Idiocracy isn’t too far fetched. Seems like that is where we are heading.

 

[McFroggin]

I’ll be hiring Steele to represent my lawsuit against TCU. The branding, bylaws, and theme is about inclusion. I identify as a former TCU athlete from my years dominating the intramural scene. I demand admittance.

 

[flyfishingfrog]

We need a Blockhead Revolt!

my wife told me she can’t imagine a more appropriate name for me and my fellow former “Lettermen”
