You still don't say anything. Can you give me an example?

Hey...don't associate Walt and Mickey with anyone linked to KU.

Why not, I probably live closer to it than you do.

I am using your posts to create a parody of you where you act dumb and don't understand why Missouri would go while making these ridiculous arguments for how the Big 12 is really the place to be.

Your rationalizations always end up with B12 as a happy family because if that isn't the case then your Jayhawks are in a world they don't want to be in.

I think the satire fits.

ROFL

Alright, then I'll quit pretending like you have a worthwhile position. I never said Missouri shouldn't go. I only wanted someone to articulate to me why they think they have to. It is obvious to me, it isn't a specific. Its just a general inadequacy about being in the same conference as Texas. There is no real "recruiting advantage" that wasn't already there. Its just envy and you are willing to whore yourself out to a conference who just wants you for your TV markets. And, once they possess them, will send you back to the outskirts of the conference to commiserate with Arkansas, tell you not speak unless spoken to, and to fix them a turkey pot pie on your way back.

Awww, don't go away mad.

Frustrated, not really mad. You're the one that decided to turn a conversation into a satire.

HH...it's very simple.

We grow very tired of a conference that is shallow now. OU and UT will bolt at the first oportunity of grabbing a larger payday. MU, for once has the opportunity to get away from what is truly the University of Texas conference.

My question to you...why won't you just accept that if KU had the same opportunity that MU does right now, they would jump all over it with both feet.

I think it is a great way to get a point across.

Also if you want to act like nobody here has talked about the benefits of Missouri going to the SEC then you are either playing dumb or seeing what you want to see.

Proximity doesn't make you a better relative.

Also because it is a quality operation with a PR machine that rivals none.

Plus...they are never afraid to take chances, step outside the norm and try not to sit in a comfort zone.

The same cannot be said for KU.

As a KU fan, I would hope to God they would get out while the gettin' was good.

Well, as everyone has pointed out, UT has kind of painted themselves into a corner with their Longhorn Network, so there really isn't a larger payday for them unless they get rid of the LHN, which it should be obvious, they are not. OU could have easily gotten in front of you to the SEC, but they aren't really interested in the SEC (and they don't even have an AAU status). So, they aren't going anywhere either.

No, I don't think KU would go to the SEC even if they had the opportunity. They might go to the ACC or the PAC, and they would probably go to the B1G. But, if they could stay in the Big XII, get paid well, and not have to break up their regional rivalries, I think only the B1G would cause them to jump. We don't fit SEC culture.

I have never said MU didn't have more opportunities than KU, for a number of reasons, so my points are not really motivated from there.

Why would Missouri go to the SEC?

Why don't you like the Big 12?

Hey! Guys?

Whyyyyyy?

Well, I have read this thread and lots of the older thread and the articles in the KCStar. But, please, point me to the post or story that really outlines it. I could understand the B1G. The opportunities and cultural fit there would be outstanding. The SEC... I really don't get that quite as much. It seems like a negotiation ploy to me, which I could understand from the university perspective. If you have leverage, attempt to use it. I don't understand the fan reasoning.

By the way, the best way to get a point across to actually make a great point. When you have to resort to belittling humor, its usually viewed as a crutch to support a weak position.
