Nice try.. Why don't you calculate the additional road miles TAMU will travel playing the same schedule as Ark and LSU each year.
The travel costs are much different. Otherwise, it would not be talked about by the AD and President of TAMU.
You now have the campus distance feel free to get to work. I'll check your math when completed.
You clearly didn't get that I wasnt serious in saying they are the same distance. I was simply pointing out that you were arbitrarily placing a line that supported your argument. You actually dont even have the right numbers, because you should be comparing the travel distances they dealt with in the Big 12--how their future SEC travel compares to LSU's travel is irrelevant.
And suck my dick. You're the one making the argument, not me. You provide us with the travel distance A&M covered total in the Big 12 (in 2010) and how much they would have in the SEC 14 (let's give them roughly LSUs 2010 schedule dropping vandy for the road game in BR and assume VT is their cross division so replace Florida with them). And for good measure, let's see how far they travel next year total in the Big12-2.
Oh, and for those I would like total miles of flight (not driving) as well as per game average. Thanks.

You got it pencil dick but I'm sending you an invoice. America baby America.
What would you like 8 or 9 conference games and I'll let you pick the 2 or 3 East Teams to play along with the 6 West Games?
Total miles of flight, you got it.
Give me the paramaters as I've outlined.

"Anyway, the $20 million a year the Big 12 guaranteed A&M in TV revenues is more than the SEC gives each of its teams.
And what about the departure tax that will be part of A&M's divorce settlement with the Big 12?
The B12 is a crappy, dying conference and while there A&M will have much difficulty selling it's brand. A move to the SEC makes the only sense.

Okay.. which Ag slept this guy's old lady/sister?
I LOVE picking on the thin skinned over here.
I'm very disappointed in the lack of intelligent, witty and outside of the box thinking in reference to comments from college kids now days.

I understand that the branding but people who don't work in finance sure as hell don't get the money department, ha.
The SEC is going to set off the first nuke just to go back to 2nd or 3rd place in Conference revenue.
Hell, the Big10 doesn't even need to expand to pass the SEC with 14 teams in terms of revenue.

Sun Hog, so you'll be lobbying for Arkansas to take A&M's place in the Big XII, then?

Horrible flame. What is wrong with people around here. Did you not learn how to talk true shite and put power behind words that aren't.. Stupid, idiot, moron, suck my dick, Arky, kiss your sister etc...
There are som ultra unintelligent life probies on this board and that's why it's so damn fun to get the emotional ones going.

SunHog can't help but exude his left coast liberal arrogance that he's picked up in California.
It makes my skin crawl.

This is truly funny. I'm a complete capitalist and republican, try again. I think you should've figured that out by the finance and numbers comments.

See what I'm talking about here people. Prime example, another one falls in line with the 'stupid' comment.
Can you bring me something better with wit, please!

Finally, a grammar queen, yes!
You can't rebuttal the context and pick our spelling and grammar errors to highlight as a point, lame.
You'll make a great grade school teacher we need more of those...

Actually, I already gave you the parameters. Work on your reading comprehension. I said give them LSU's 2010 conference schedule (which is 8 games), except make the Vandy away game against LSU in BR and make the Florida away game against VT in Blacksburg.
So you don't have to look a single thing up (because somehow I doubt you have the capacity to remember last fall), that's away games at LSU, at VT, at Auburn, at Arkansas.

SunHog,
Get a hold of yourself--you're on tilt. This is a message board, not real life. Somewhere along the way you've mixed up the important and unimportant.

Take it easy on Sun. He's just mad because A&M and Arky have exactly the same number of SEC championships..
