PrintInspired by 54b's discovery of a great treasure trove of golden Aggie nuggets,* I'm back with another, less "think-y" edition of Why We're Not Aggies. This edition: YouTube! Enjoy, you embedded video lovers, you.
"Yell Leading" looks way more like interpretive dance:
American Idol douchebag Jason Castro is an Aggie:
More YouTubery after the jump.
Uh, you have a double dutch jump-rope squad? Ooookay...no comment:
You release "outtakes" from your yell leader campaign video that makes you and all your friends appear certifiably retarded....and that's actually an INCENTIVE for people to vote for you!
[Favorite parts: the man-hug and the squirrel on the grass. Someone get that squirrel and make him do pushups!]
Raise Up, B/CS:
[Most of you have already seen this, but it's also the greatest thing ever in the history of things that are great, so watch it again and enjoy.]
And finally, OUR basketball team can actually hold a lead against UCLA:
*"Golden Aggie nuggets"? WTF am I talking about? I don't know what that even means. Whatever they are, I would advise against touching them though.

Good question
Of course, I'm not beyond thinking that he could be a hermaphrodite.
Hate to say this...
but the Aggie from American Idol looks pretty normal compared to some of the freaks I've seen in Austin.

His mannerisms
I was referring more to his mannerisms than the way he looks. Although, that doesn't help his case.
I like the yell leader-ing
12th Man! (Jazz hands!)
Leadership! (UP YOURS BUDDY!)
What a tool.
My favorite parts as well

Wow...this is totally Jason Castro beyond even the most exotic definition of "Jason Castro".
Hehheh
Perhaps this will be a new euphemism?
Raise UP
I got through 2 min and 33 seconds of that clip before I threw up a little in my mouth. That's all I can take. Thanks BZ for ending my lunch early!
"It's Awesome!"
Milkman Grant: "It's a really big deal! They didn't even know me before I was a yell leader, but then like...once I put on this uniform, it's just like an automatic response."
Good Bull!
Welp, There You Have It
The tradition is rooted in all guys yelling in unison with other guys dressed in janitors' uniforms.
The thing that gets me
The Aggie fight song is all about UT. That's flattering enough for us, I suppose, but it must be mighty confusing when they play someone else.
One line vs whole song
Not to mention a&m's whole and sole identity as anti-UT.

Oh, the little fuck you at the end is sweet.
And it gives us an automatic two-fer.
not aggies
So instead of getting more news and analysis on our men's and women's teams still in the tournament, along with looks at potential opponents, more baseball news, etc. I'm forced to load up this slow-loading front page with a bunch of Aggie shit on it.
Just who is obsessed?
Just a bit of fun, that's all
There's nothing wrong with fun, Jason.
The analysis of yesterday's game has been for a while and is pretty much complete. We've got another 4 days until our next game. Would you prefer nothing until the previews for that game start?
If you or someone else wants to write a diary about the women's tourney, that'd be great. I'll personally bump it up to the main column. But I'm not comfortable writing about something I know nothing about.
As for the slow-loading front page, I put most of the videos after the jump to avoid such a problem. Two of them shouldn't slow things down very much. Is anyone else having this problem?
also important to note:
you're not getting this INSTEAD of anything. you're getting this in ADDITION to what you already were getting.
if you don't like it, just skip over it. you won't hurt my feelings, trust me.
Just hit search
then you don't have to load the front page every time and you can read the stories you want.
when it comes down to it...
...there's not a lot of difference in the UT and aTm folks really. I have to be careful about that sometimes around certain clients. But there are some really core differences that can determine one's destiny as one or the other. Take my friend Bone (name has been changed to protect the guilty). Bone went to aTm because his sister went there and she loved it, so since they were close, he figured he'd love it too. Then came bonfire. Bone said he was out chopping wood one night for bonfire. Against his will mind you when one of the pots came around harrassing the freshmen. This guy starts yelling at him about the size of wood he's chopping. I'll never forget the line as long as I live. It's already in a script registered with WGA so don't bother stealing it: "You sure do like that pussy wood don't you fish Miller". Pussy wood? Who takes the t...anyway, Bone transfered at Christmas break and never went back. Nuf said. Hook em.
re: obviously the wrong school
I'm pretty sure that was the moral of this story.
we're also not Tech
I thought this was funny. At work, I'm wearing a UT baseball national championship shirt. My coworker who went to Tech is wearing a shirt that says BEAT the hell out of TEXAS. I think the juxtaposition is interesting.
Also, they're copying A&M's thing, and it's a shirt about beating a team that isn't their rival.
This is the same reason that the Horns down doesn't bother me, though. In that case, you're still doing our sign, just upside-down. And here's a girl who's wearing a shirt that says Texas, just like my shirt.
