I hear the Aggies are dumping any messages from their message board about this topic. Typical.

Ignore your problems and they'll go away! Or maybe they didn't happen in the first place?

Honestly, who cares? They're young...who hasn't gotten arrested for underage drinking? Or at least gotten in some bit of trouble at that age. I hate Franchie with a passion, but let's not start rubbing this in. Just no reason to.

B-Ball season is over. Football doesn't start for a while. We don't have baseball. Golf team is doing okay. Hey, gossiping beats no chatter at all, and hey, my point was that the Aggies are not letting any chatter on their board about it at all. What happened to the girls is no big deal. But the reaction at A&M is just too funny. On one board they put up a picture of the Iraqi press secretary and had quotes like: "Didn't happen. Only those envious of A&M spread lies like that".

This is like Dubbya's daughters getting caught drinking. Who cares?

Just like Clinton getting caught getting sexual favors in the white house.....who cares?

Just more evidence that the drinking age of 21 is insane.
