AM's biggest choke

Sounds pretty pathetic. Whew, this is some hard core aggy misery. Hornfans, be sure to take small sips - this thing's concentrated & really potent.
 
Help. I drank TOO deep, fell down and can't get up.

Spidey could put this all in perspective. Where ARE you, Spidey?

It was time to update my sig anyway.

Ohhh, now that thread is sweetness.....

My favorite: "Just another in a very very long line of choke jobs in Aggie sports. Nothing to see here citizens, move along."

Most of 'em know deep down that aggy sports is a long & storied history of choking, frustration, futility and bewilderment. It just takes an epic choke job like today to bring out the confessions.
 
some people on there are whiney as hell.

but really, I think it's fair to say that A&M is the college version of the Chicago Cubs - neither team has done anything of major significance since the WWII era.
 
The funniest part of that thread is where Aggy is arguing over what a choke is or isn't. Classic... they can't even agree on their misery.
 
Their biggest choke in baseball was when they gave away the two games on Sunday to lose their regional in 2003 to the Houston Cougars. They had lost the first game, but had a lead in the 9th and only needed 1 win that day. Dave South was in the middle of giving instructions regarding Super regional information....

"AAAAAaaaaaaawwwwWWWWWW NNNNNAAAaaaaawwwwwWWWW!" followed by 10 seconds of silence.

An error on the pitcher allowed runs to score and ultimately aggy lost the game. I was laughing so hard. This team was actually really damn good.


The biggest choke in football was that Baylor game where they lost when Guy Morris went for 2 to win the game 35-34. There is a link somewhere to Dave South's broadcast for that one too. This was 2004, the year they went to the Cotton Bowl to get F-stomped by Tennessee..

Another football choke on their part was when they tied SMU when they went 10-0-1 in 94', but it wouldnt have mattered anyways since they were on suspension for the 3rd time in a decade for NCAA violations.

Biggest choke in basketball... easy. AC Law , their best player ever, missing an easy lay up against LSU to send them to the Elite 8.
 
I'm going to say that A&M's biggest choke is their entire history. A&M is over 100 years old, is one of the largest and most well-funded schools in the nation, home access to the most fertile recruiting grounds in the county, yet only has one national championship in the big 3 to their school's name..........that's sad. As much **** as A&M fans talk, you would think that they have done more..... much more. I'm glad that I went to a university that not only offers a great education, but one that also has a sports history and program that I can actually be proud of.
 
My favorite:

Just keep your head buried in the sand. If you think losing 6 in a row including 2 epic chokes to the Huskers and getting swept by the worst sip team in years doesn't matter because we backed into a Big XII co championship, you're nuts. There is such a thing as momentum and these guys have probably played their way out of a national 8 seed. It matters.
