I hope our fan base can continue to take that "you can talk the talk, we'll walk the walk" attitude. Growing up a Husker fan in Nebraska in the 90's, I was pretty spoiled and arrogant about my college football. Being a TCU fan has turned me more into a "alright, we'll just see what happens on the field" sort of fan, which is the best way to be. I hope all of this success doesn't turn us into that constant boat-talking arrogant type.Despite the odds Frog said:

Afraid too many have never experienced the bad times. Already seeing some of the entitled types that don't seem to understand things run in cycles. We are in a renaissance period right now, but no guarantees it will always be...TCU J-Sauce said:
I was there during the bad times, so I greatly appreciate the last 17 years. What I didn't know during the bad times is how our own people were holding us back. We now have people in charge that understand how important to the whole school a successful athletic department can be. My son recruits to students to TCU. Winning games is terrific PR. You can't afford that much national advertisement. He sees this when visiting high schools and college fairs. We get more interest, more applications, and terrific students. The value of all of our degrees continues to go up. I think we all now expect to be competitive each and every year, and that is a good thing.Hoosierfrog said:
I'm from a family of Aggies, most of them live in College Station and went to that school. I chose not to drink that Maroon colored Kool-aid. And i have to agree the silence after the beating they took Saturday compared to the mouthing leading up to the series about their team and unapologetic ticket code theft. Then after the squeaker Sunday here come the mouths again. But i can tell you it was sure fun early Tuesday morning watching those Ags with tucked tails walking out of Lupton. Not one Aggie friend or family has uttered a work in person or social media about the results of the series. Karma is a righteous thing.Mrs Navyfrog said:
Is there an app that can unfriend all Aggies at once?Reptilian said:What a weird group. I have an aggy "friend" I've known for 7 years through youth hockey. Wives have become good friends and our sons attend camps together and have sleep over etc.
He started trolling me with the #TCU15 via email, twitter and facebook the week leading up to the Super. I ignored it or laughed it off. They were expecting 3 k and maybe even a majority. It was a feeding frenzy of Aggy dorks commenting on the Facebook and twitter feeds. Just before game one I finally responded with: "Just got here. Congrats on gigging us for the tickets. Just curious though...why buy all the tickets and wear purple?".
Never made another post as they went apeshit. Got a notification Tuesday he unfriended me. Gonna make this Fall's season. Interesting. Thin skinned dorks.
I follow and interact with a good amount of Horns on Twitter. They know this is a dry season for their FB program. But they also have a title, played for another, and can still write checks. They also respect what we've done. Not one of them speaks down to TCU. Maybe that's because we've whipped them 2 of last 4 years.Moose Stuff said:
