An Aggie Apology

Don’t feel too bad, though. Personally, the Aggie site was the least of my problems that day.

Apologies and forgiveness are never “too little, too late”. Rivalries are fun and poking jabs at each other for sport is likewise entertaining. But just like teasing your little brother, there is a line that you shouldn’t cross. It is not consistent with the spirit of humanity.

Grace. Integrity. Character. Love. Exhibit any one of these with each person you meet and the world will be a better place. (yeah, sappy I know. But I suffer with having a Sooner as a brother, so I have plenty of practice at it.)

Hook’em!

Unfortunately, the guys representing the Ags on the internet aren’t like you.

Maybe if Colt was a little bit physically tougher, the game might have been different, but maybe not. One-Hit McCoy, Sissyboy McCoy, all are apt descriptions of McCoy after Thursday night.

I haven’t really minded him up until now, but he has now revealed himself to be the pathetic worthless piece of shit that he really is.

Those are the best kind, and it’s appreciated. There’s room for civility in rivalries. We aren’t SEC drones.

and the apology is nice, but I know even more like Beergut and miketag. These two tough guys aren’t just typical TexAgs idiots, they’re far worse. They are the Site Manager and Editor of the only Aggie blog in SB Nation, an otherwise respectable organization. Beergut and miketag represent TAMU at some level, regardless of the unofficial capacity. In my experience, both personal and professional, their type is not as rare as you might hope.

If any of our BON managers or editors wrote something like this, I’d boycott this site, but every member here knows that’s not a possibility:

I don’t want to hear about Colt McCoy’s injury or, “if only Colt had a chance to play in the game…” Colt did have a chance to play in the game. He completed two passes, for nine yards. He was physically unable to continue playing in the game because of a hit he took on an option play. Maybe if Colt was a little bit physically tougher, the game might have been different, but maybe not. One-Hit McCoy, Sissyboy McCoy, all are apt descriptions of McCoy after Thursday night. Garret Gilbert took more hits and harder hits than McCoy did all night, and he kept getting up and kept playing. Stephen McGee took countless hits running the option for A&M for three years, and he never went out of a game. McCoy runs one option play against Alabama, and he’s done for the night. McCoy had his chance to play, he just physically wasn’t up to continuing past four plays.

but the name calling from this aggie cunnus. The team medical staff wouldn’t let Colt back in the game even after he begged them. I posted a fanshot of the official statement today on BON.

And he had this to say in his banning message:

I think someone who is completely incapable of listening to a dissenting view is worse than a worthless piece of shit, but that’s just me.

Yes, citizens of BON, writing “One-Hit McCoy, Sissyboy McCoy, all are apt descriptions of McCoy after Thursday night.” is merely a “dissenting view.” And calling out the author of these words makes one “worse than a worthless piece of shit.”

That made my afternoon!

Aside from open threads he has a somewhat strict no cursing policy, at least from what he says.

Sometimes people make an account, talk trash, curse, and then make fun of BG for banning them because of the different opinions or trash talking. Sometimes, it is just about the cursing.

between miketag, Beergut and NeTexHorn.

Cart McCoy makes an appearance on national tv

by miketag

You really are a douche.

Kid plays his heart out for the university and goes down on the first drive of the National Championship game and you sit behind your computer screen and call him names. Grow up, dude. Shit was not funny three years ago and it is not funny now. I don’t want to see any of these kids injured and you make light of it. Way to go. You feel better about yourself now?

by NeTexHorn

I disagree

it was hysterical three years ago

by Beergut

It’ll help drive up his click count (already beyond 23 today!), but oh well.

To talk about the BCS champ game. LOL. No wonder that Beergut loser always trolls the BON boards. Poor bastard doesn’t have any one to actually talk to over there. (Hey, Beergut, I bet you’re reading this right now, huh?) I remember once making a post about how the Ags were going to get creamed by OU in their game (and they were), and ol Beergut deleted it. He can dish it out, but he can’t take it. Loser.

Beergut and his sidekick are who they are. Everyone knows about him now and I have already written SB nation to encourage his removal as site editor. I’m sure it won’t make a difference but it’s what I can do since Aggieland deserves a proper home.

Beer gut is reviled at DTN for the same kind of behavior. Seems that most ags feel the same about him considering that many of his open game-day threads earlier this year got 40-50 posts.

I got banned for making fun of beergut. He was getting completely owned by a Tech fan who moderates the Washington Redskins site, i simply pointed it out and was banned. Iamjackburton hit the nail on the head, HE CAN DISH IT OUT, BUT CAN’T TAKE IT. The sad little man that is beergut won’t ban people anymore because he needs people to come on his site and make comments.

If you can’t get rid of him for being juvenile and classless, then they should be able to get rid of him for not doing his job. He constantly misspells words in his “columns”. Nor does he attract any kind of attention to his site. Isn’t atm one of the biggest schools in the country? You would think with that kind of fanbase, they would have more than beergut and his little sidekick/boyfriend miketag.

The people you’re talking about come out of the woodwork when Texas loses or a player gets injured, they aren’t quite as malicious most of the time. Unfortunately some of your fan base appear to be more ‘haters’ of opponents than they are fans of the Aggies. I suspect these people are generally miserable and malicious and don’t contribute a whole lot of positive influence anywhere.

It’s good to hear one of you ‘Good Aggies’ speak out before I forget that you are the silent majority. But I have to say you are few and far between.

Your statement shows the values that your login name suggests. Thanks for the aopolgy. Nothing wrong with healthy rivalry and competition. Hope your spirit can permeate more of your Aggie brethren’s comments in the future. You are a standup guy and a good fellow Texan, as well as exemplifying the values that Christ taught. Thank you for posting… comeback anytime.
