Looking forward to the drive? No. Looking forward to the game? Yes. Agree with the decision to postpone? Yes. Think stated sole reason for postponement (safety/health) was actually the only reason? No.Quote:

Why would you even care? If there were other reasons, they were reasons in our favor. So what's the problem?Quote:

Not sure. Probably. I assumed a game against a non-AQ would have low priority for rescheduling the television. Don't know much about it.Quote:

That would be assuming that A&M doesn't have similar motives for agreeing to the reschedule...Quote:

Unnecessary and dumb remark by BVDV if correctly paraphrased, but not having film was not a reason for postponement. It's quite a bit more likely that the added game experience favors the aggies by a wide margin over any benefit we get from having film to review.
I would put not having film to review more in the category of a consolation benefit when trying to look on the bright side of a situation. We were geared-up and ready to play. It's frustrating to have to shift back to practice mode and was not the preferred decision for SD - guaranteed. It's just a decision with which he can live.
A lot less stupid than if someone had lost their life.Quote:
