Big XII/Aggie Question...

[Pumchavas28]

It seems deels are being made left & right for the Big XII & for A&M..... Aggies on pretty much every message board out there seem to be pissed about 1/2 or more than 1/2 of them....

Could it be that the majority of Aggies are wrong, or is the Big XII & A&M wrong?

Couple of examples.....

Big XII switching to XM radio...
A&M & ttu getting closer to having their annual game in Dallas...
A&M's ticket prices...
Big XII on ABC/ESPN (some Ags on other sites were pissed about this)....

& there are a few other deals, but it seems Ags everywhere (sites) are getting pissed about all, if not all of these....

Peope will always complain about Ticket Prices.
Those with Sirius complain about XM.
Those with tickets complain about losing the home game.
Anybody complaining about the ESPN deal is an idiot.

That is all.

Vly, I'm not a huge fan of the ESPN deal. I'm not really complaining about it, but seeing what the Big 10 and SEC have makes our deal look like crap. We need a Big 12 cable package that airs EVERY Big 12 football game like the Big 10 does. I see no reason that the Big 10 should have a better TV deal than the Big 12.

Compared to what we had though, this is still better. Who wants a TBS game when we can be ESPN HD? I admit we could have done better, but either way, we've stepped up.

People on message boards are not always representative of a population either.

Also people who are indifferent or happy generally don't care to post. Pissed people vent by posting. Therefore you get more negative posts.

Exactly!
