Reporter: The elephant in the room tonight, or lack thereof—
El-Sayed: No, the elephant was not in the room. The elephant decided that they did not want to be in the room. The elephant cowarded out. Although the elephants were all in the room in Dallas.
It’s wild to me that this guy is more interested in going to speak for, what, six minutes and 48 seconds in Dallas than he is to have 60 minutes with Michiganders here in Detroit.
But it tells you who he is. He’s a coward.
So if I were him, I wouldn’t debate me either.
Reporter: So did you buy his excuse for not wanting to be here?
El-Sayed: What was his excuse? He’s in Florida?
September 11, 2001 has been a very rough and busy day, so by popular request I’m making a single thread with the day’s highlights:
1. 8:46 AM: the world was shocked by a surprise crash at the World Trade Center, initially perceived to be a small plane but soon discovered to be a deliberate jet collision.
@MayerElliot That was the only game out of my four years that I did not march on the field due to a sprained ankle, I recall the piccolo section had fudged a counter march at the goal line lol
For the first time this century, Texas A&M is changing their full-time midfield logo to their classic “TAM” logo that doesn’t have the bevel.
The Aggies previously used their:
• Primary beveled logo (several decades)
• Lone Star logo (past 2 seasons)
the german system where they identify early which kids are gonna be aerospace engineers and which kids are gonna be ditch diggers and separate them into different schools that better suit their aptitude or lack thereof is an infinitely better system than "no child left behind"
@harryjsisson No hold up, hear me out!
The military industrial complex made a killing, as did lobbyist *and* politicians.
Now, if that wasn’t already enough:
What if I told you Israel got to beat up people they don’t like?
*I’ll *gladly* pay extra for that!
🚨 A plane with ties to Texas A&M is at the center of a tragic military aviation accident.
The U.S. Air Force B-52H Stratofortress that crashed Monday near Edwards Air Force Base in California, killing all eight people on board, was tail number 60-0061 — an aircraft known to many Aggies as the “Spirit of Aggieland.”
The bomber earned that nickname while under the command of former Aggie and then-307th Bomb Wing Commander Colonel Bruce Cox, who helped dedicate the aircraft to Texas A&M.
Over the years, the plane made several appearances connected to Aggieland, including a memorable 2017 flyover above Kyle Field and College Station during the retirement flight for Colonel Cox.
The aircraft also carried signed flags from Texas A&M teams, including the Lady Aggies basketball team and the Aggie baseball team during its College World Series run.
It’s important to note that the crew members who died in Monday’s crash were not the same crew involved in the 2017 flyover or retirement flight.
For many Aggies, “Spirit of Aggieland” was more than just a military aircraft. It was a unique symbol connecting Texas A&M’s traditions with the men and women serving our country.
Thank you to Mr. Mike Guidry for sharing these photos and memories.
Please keep the families, friends, and fellow service members of those lost in your thoughts and prayers. ❤️🇺🇸
