    Hey guys, did you know the Big XII is staying together? I thought about starting a new thread, but this will do. Also, there will only be X teams in it.

    There was this one time when my ex-girlfriend told me she would bring another girl into the bedroom so we could her, but I didn't do it. Too much tradition with the ex-girlfriend. ing .

    rofl

    Rofl Texas, threw a hissy-fit and threatened not to play A&M if they went to SEC instead of Pac-10 like they wanted.

    Rofl, changing their minds and deciding to stay in Big 12 because of A&M, even agreeing to divide up 1st-tier money with Oklahoma and A&M to beg them not to leave.

    Rofl, announcing through mouthpiece Chip Brown that Texas 'saved' the Big 12, when they were the cause of all the problems in the first place.

    According to Nebraska, a big part of the reason they left was Texas insisting on taking the lion's share of the profits/trying to run the conference. Here's one short article, and there are several more.

    There are other articles that indicate Texas tried to create a similar disparity in the Pac-10 at the last minute, which helped kill the deal.

    Nebraska voted for that particular revenue model. They made a load of money off of it in fact. The fact that they're complaining about something that they profit immensely from makes no sense. Try again.

    Why do you think they left? Just because they profited from it 'immensely' doesn't mean it was a fair model, or best for them (as their leaving for another conference shows). Texas likes to lock their rivals into inferior positions (they're looking out for number 1, which is understandable). Don't try to pretend you're a benevolent savior of the little guys in the conference, though; that's laughable.

    You stupid, sheep sucking . THEY VOTED FOR IT YOU SUCKER!!!! IF THEY DIDN'T THINK IT WAS THE BEST MODEL FOR THEM, THEY SHOULD'VE VOTED AGAINST IT!!! DO YOU KNOW WHY THEY DIDN'T VOTE AGAINST IT, YOU ING AGGIE BAG? BECAUSE THEY WERE RAKING IN THE DOUGH AT THE EXPENSE OF THE OTHER TEAMS IN THE CONFERENCE NOT NAMED TEXAS, SHEEP ERS, AND OU. THEY ONLY TOUT THE FAIRNESS ARGUMENT BECAUSE THEY NOW SUCK AT THEIR ONLY MONEY MAKING SPORT. WHOOPS! OUR BAD! WE NOW SUPPORT A SOCIALIST STRUCTURE. WE WERE JUST KIDDING ABOUT THAT UNEQUAL REVENUE STRUCTURE. IT'S TEXAS' FAULT. WE'RE TAKING OUR BALL AND GOING HOME. TEXAS DIDN'T LOCK ANYONE INTO ANYTHING. THEY VOTED FOR IT ON THEIR OWN VOLITION YOU RE ED, NUTLESS MONKEY.

    God, I wish you smokers would go to the SEC so I don't have to type in capital letters again. And as for who gets to play savior? Who gives a ?

    at Texas agreeing to pay A&M the same amount of money annually to stay in the Big12. Say what you want but A&M called Texas' bluff and resulted in A&M making $20 million annually with the new deal... the same amount as UT and OU and considering how A&M has performed the last decade against those teams shows that A&M was definitely a winner financially in this new deal. If anything A&M proved they are not Texas' . A&M didn't have much of a choice than to take the 20 mil annually since their Athletic Department is so much in debt. A&M will join the SEC in the near future once the little 10 falls apart...

    They voted for it because they had to find a home somewhere, and at the time it was the best they could do. You sometimes have to make compromises in life, and just because you sign up for something doesn't mean you're thrilled with every detail. As soon as they found somewhere better (Big 10) they moved on.

    It is true that the ins ution that brings in the most money should get more of the profits, but the fact that other conferences (like the Big 10) had equal profit sharing made Nebraska's move inevitable; Texas' refusal to negotiate made their realignment with the Big 10 the absolute best move for Nebraska.

    IT'S TEXAS' FAULT. WE'RE TAKING OUR BALL AND GOING HOME.
    Really? You're going to mock Nebraska for 'taking their ball and going home' after Texas threatened to never play A&M in any sport if they broke off and went to the SEC? Pot... kettle.

    And as for who gets to play savior? Who gives a ?
    Apparently Texas does. They tell the remaining members of the Big 12, "Give us, Oklahoma and A&M the money from Nebraska and Colorado, and our own television network," then announce through their minions that 'Texas saved the Big 12.'

    The only thing keeping Missouri with us is the fact that the Big 10 hasn't invited them. All the other second-class teams in the Big 12 will jump ship the first chance they get. Technically, Kansas, Missouri, etc. 'signed on' for the new situation, where they don't get any of the Colorado/Nebraska money, where they're relegated to second-class status. Do you really think that means they love the situation? They have no alternative at the moment. As soon as they do have a better option, they're gone. Therefore Texas (and now Oklahoma and A&M) are responsible for setting up this situation, which is doomed to fail. Texas wants to make sure they get credit for 'saving' the Big 12, though. Therefore, rofl Texas. Understand?

    As for pulling out the 'big guns' of argument (capital letters and vulgar name-calling), I'll do Texas a favor and consider you a t-shirt fan instead of a graduate. If you are a Texas graduate, though... rofl Texas.
