The Badgers lost to THE Ohio State University yesterday in men’s basketball in the championship game of the Big Ten Conference tournament. They’d played Ohio State twice before this year and the games had been close, intense struggles, with each team winning on its home court. Yesterday, the Badgers got behind early and couldn’t quite close the gap, although they made some runs. After their last run fell short in the second half, the Buckeyes made a couple of “dagger” baskets and you could see the Badgers just sag with exhaustion. Well, one thing that’s nice about sports is that there is usually a second chance. That second chance is the NCAA tournament. The Badgers are up against Texas A and M (what exactly does the M stand for?). So, time to get some rest and have another go.
I'm serious, what DOES the M in 'A and M' stand for??

Isn't it Methodist? (And you were one, too.) But I might be wrong.
Someone told me today the M stands for "military", but he wasn't sure. Besides, everyone knows that Methodists do NOT make good basketball players.
I think it stands for "mooncow". "Marmalade?" What's the "A" stand for?
agriculture!, You know, the "Aggies". There's a whole host of Aggie jokes out there,too numberous to post on my blog all alluding to the fact that "Aggies"are not the sharpest knives in the drawer....
