You know the answer to that. MU was the sleazy chick at the bar looking to go home with anyone but the guys she came with. She was sitting there..... staring at the Big 10, dress on, panties off, legs spread.

It's been declared. Completely out of my hands. Just accept it Pants.

Just noticed it is after 2 o'clock. KK had his daily meltdown yet?

I wouldn't have said that last year, but it really seems like Big 10 football is going downhill. So many of their traditional powers (Michigan, Penn State, Purdue) have been bad for many years that you can't really consider them powers anymore.

You've never heard of the Chisolm Trail Rivalry? Man, you are a bigger dumbass than I thought.

I wanted the Big 10 because of the academic affiliations. When they added Nebraska, however, it was clear that academics mean very, very, very little in terms of conference realignment.

So, since it's all about football, bring on the SEC. Mizzou will have to be savvy to get to a point of being a threat in this league, but it will make for some fun Saturdays of watching great football/teams/players.

I accept it.

I will say this, not sure you can say KSU-Texas is a rivalry, especially considering Texas is K-State's bitch on the field most of the time. Got to give KSU credit for that.

Hell no. I didn't mention a move to the SEC at all when it wasn't on the table. Applebee's may not be Capital Grill, but some boneless buffalo wings and a Brewtis look pretty good, when you've been eating McRibs for the past 15 years.

New analogy is new.

Or could it be that a conference is trying to improve their footprint and increase television markets. Mizzou obviously lacks the football tradition of a place like Nebraska, which thus swings a heavier financial hammer in terms of that sport, but it does bring with it a host of other attributes (including a much stronger academic CV, which as I've already noted is nothing but a nicety).

I was in favor of the prospective Big 10 move because it would be an upgrade over the Big 12 and because I live in Big 10 country. I am in favor of the SEC move because its an upgrade over the Big 12. The Big 10 would have been better for me geographically, and they already have a tv network I could watch everything on. But I'm sure the SEC will have one too when the dust settles. The SEC is probably better for our football program anyway.

As far as I am concerned either would have been great. If you are in the #4 (and falling) conference and someone asks if you'd like to be in #1 or #2 your answer should be "yes."

MU is your relative/friend that always wants to borrow money because they have a "sure thing" going down, and they are "good for it".

Then they disappear for 5 years, and come back with a couple missing fingers and walk with a limp.

These are always great... you pick the most boring from one side and the best from the SEC.

In restaurant terms: I'd much rather lick the filth off the floor of the kitchen at OK Joe's than eat the prime rib at the Majestic Steakhouse.

In dating terms: I'd much rather date the ugliest girl on eHarmony than the most beautiful lady in the bar.

In dancing terms: I'd much rather dance with the one legged woman on America's Got Talent than Anna Trebunskaya* on Dancing with the Stars.

In employment terms: I'd much rather be a security guard at Google than CEO of Apple.


*I Googled that...

So, what you're saying is the sleazy chick has some nice tits. :p

Playing in the Big 10 is like eating at a crappy chinese buffet. It's bland, boring, and things tend to slowwwwwwwwwww down after a few plates.
