But really it would mean more if we were fans that had options.  It does come off a little more self-serving and desperate from K-Staters.  I think signs, being mean, BITB and bitching about it on here would do fine.  I mean I'm not going to write some letter to the editor, but I think just expressing displeasure in your everyday activities are normal.

 :dubious:

Sometimes these are effective and have been known to save NIT-bound basketball seasons.

Well, not much.  Some suggestions:

1)  Signs
2)  Be extremely mean to A&M fans
3)  call in to BITB and tee him up
4)  prayer circle
5)  bitch about it on here

But really it would mean more if we were fans that had options.  It does come off a little more self-serving and desperate from K-Staters.  I think signs, being mean, BITB and bitching about it on here would do fine.  I mean I'm not going to write some letter to the editor, but I think just expressing displeasure in your everyday activities are normal.

6) Be respectful to other schools. Learn not to treat others how we've been treated.

why am i the only one w/zero interest in possible conference scenarios even if they are "positive"

My theory are those that are so damned interested by this realignment BS are indirectly fueling it.

Not bad.  I think people should be more pissed.  It just makes me sad that everyone accepts as the rules for engaging with the topic an assumption that the core values driving this are profit and tv markets and that those are acceptable premises for the discussion.  Why are those not disgusting, repulsive premises?  Even if an outright rejection makes you seem naive, doesn't that at all impact the substance of the discussion.

And Mack Brown of all people is one of the few who said anything about the travel, even if he couched it in concern for the family's of the players and not fans, it seems to me that this should be the central issue.

The only reason college football is important is because of fan interest, and yet fans fall immediately in to this sort of sheep like passive engagement with something that they profess to care about?  It burns me up.

I've been waiting for someone to stand up and say something like this.  Like, it doesn't help when Mike Cheefesasfdasky stands up and basically says "hey, times change, tough sh*t everyone who isn't in power".  Mostly everyone is just scared and the coaches/adminstrators don't want to look like fools when they stand up and give a "mad as hell" rant and then the next day their school leaves.  It's a herd mentality.  

First off, it was good on Mack.  I like him anyways, but that was good.

But, it didn't really cost Mack anything given his position.  I have a hard time imagining even someone else getting shitcanned for speaking out on it.  it would just make the ad/president look really craven and awful.  It is a pretty nice move, really.  If they do leave, its like, what could Mack really do?

Most fans want to give their rival hell about being picked by a "better" conference and arent considering 10 years from now.

I agree, I mean the KU stuff is particularly awful because of the lack of self-awareness.  But f A&M.  The smug celebratory shits are the worst.

I honestly would not like to see them completely homeless if there were some legal battle, but they deserve criticism and condemnation to their faces and their band's incredibly ridiculous halftime performance booed throughout.  Booing their band of merry little fascists would be excellent.

Maybe, we, as goEMAW members could make a "We Are The World" type of music video to save our conference/rivalries?  :dunno:

word out of OU is that they have two options:  PacWhatever & Big12 with equal revenue sharing.  Texas is either going to have to ditch their television station or go indy.  no conference will have them with it.

That's a pretty solid place to be, for us.  At least, better than other scenarios.

Gonna need a list of musicians/actors/athletes who are committed to this before I can commit to a project of this scope.

I emailed the A&M pres telling him he was an arrogant bad person that would regret his decision...does that count?

The losers are the same fans cheering that they are going to a "better conference".  Come talk to me in a few years when the only conference away games you can go to are the one or two games that are now within driving distance versus basically all of them now.  rough ridin' idiots.

Not if OU doesn't get their own Sooner Network, apparently.
