WV, Louisville, San Diego State, Tulane. Boom, outta here.

Sure you would. Then Mizzou would have actually won something in our lifetime.

We did beat Josh Freeman and Jordy Nelson on the road. They were ranked (at the time, anyway).

That OSU team was pretty stacked as well, IIRC. I could be wrong, though, it was a while ago.

KSU had gone into Texas the previous week and won. It was a pretty big deal. But I think they fell apart down the stretch. OSU had Dez Bryant but no defense to speak of, IIRC. I don't remember thinking they'd be a huge threat to beat KU and they weren't. The closest they came to losing that season before Arrowhead was in Boulder.

Mizzou needs to get the f out of this aids-ridden conference.

Time for the daily KK rant...today: Jay Nixon is the owner of the Mizzou Tigers, and it is his fault that KK's world is crashing down.

That's last week's rant. He's just recycling it because he needs to explain how this isn't really the IIX shitting all over itself again.

yes please

Well, KK has been out of arguments for awhile. In addition, US Senators should not be watching college football games from luxury suites. That has contributed to the decline of college athletics.

Call your University President and convince them to let us off cheap and MU will be gone tomorrow.

Then again - it's not like anyone at the IIX listens to what KSU or KU have to say anyway, so that probably won't work.

Give DeLoss Doddes a call and see if you can get us off the hook....for old time's sake.

I love how apt that analogy really is.

Oh, Great, now we have a poll that will push all of you douches to be even bigger douches.

Wickedson will still be a giant douche whether he wins the poll or not.

I bet he can elevate his douche for the big douche-off (again).

I'm concerned that those that are late to the game may not get enough Stewie to realize just how much of a shoe-in for this prize he should be.

I hope he comes back soon; the voters need a reminder.

Wickedson is really getting an unfair rap here - Stewie is a WAY bigger douche than Wickedson. Wickedson is the Knowmo to Stewie's Dane. Wickedson's just a mindless homer whereas Stewie is absolutely dripping in useless information and smug superiority while being frequently inaccurate (and quite indignant when being informed of same).

This HAS to be Stewies prize.

Oh heck, it is so bad, you should just quit being cheap, and pay up.

Think of the future, and that extra 50 million you are going to get for just being in the same conference as Alabama, Fl and LSU.

After all, this will be one of the last times our boys get to stick it to you. Frank Martin and Bill Self need some new basketballs.

Are Stewie and Dickheadson mults?

You're welcome. :evil:

ROFL Nice, good luck to you guys, seriously.

Grandma used to tell me, be careful what you wish for, you just may get it.

But who knows? With a fresh start, Mizzou might do something they haven't done since I was pooping yellow.

No one in the Big Bevo gives 2 shits what those podunk universities think or do.

KK has lost his spin!

KK has a plethora of anti-SEC callers today. He has to run out of those eventually, right? There are only so many smoke and fire gift certs he can bribe callers with (behind the scenes)....

I'm just surprised so many people get so angry at things I say.

Shit man, I've only got like 3,500 or so posts...

Ok, we finally FLUSHED him out. No matter the post count, KChiefs1 should have an automatic 20 votes in Frazods poll.

**edit** he has 107 posts in the thread!!!!

I don't think anyone gets angry, folks are just amused and the severe lack of logic and intelligence your posts contain.

Missouri won statehood in your lifetime. :D

I didn't even know that kid existed before this thread. He is one massive douchenozzle, though.

Not a chance.

Oh shit, but that would make even worse, correct? Was your Mom the home coming queen that year? :D

Hey Wickedson are you a Yankees fan?

Yep, Mizzou had the first!

Really?

I typical don't respond to people I find unintelligent.

Hence why I don't really know who you are.

I take it you're from Minnesota?

Quit being a passive aggressive pussy. Oh wait, you can't help it.

Are you !@#$ing kidding me?

Cassandra, Mistress of the Dark, is now on Kietzman's show.

Gonna go listen to my Simmons Podcast now. Jesus, that's pathetic.

Yes he is, beyond any douchness wickedson or stewie have demonstrated.

But it is obvious there are more Mizzou fans on this board than KU/KState combined.

With that level of support, you would think they would have done something by now. :D

:facepalm:

You must think I am a genius then, since you have responded to several of my posts. Of course, none of your responses had any value, but merely showed your ability to suck the chrome off of a Texas trailer hitch.

And miss the parade of waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh going on? Why should we? :evil:

Question is, does she support Mizzou going to the SEC?

:) A source of much pride! Go Tigers!

Heh, she's from Manhattan, Kansas.

Because you just might get it. Specifically, you just might get it, the University of Missouri. With the allure of making the transition to the Southeastern Conference, Missouri has now jumped past Texas A&M into the lead for “Most short-sighted conference realignment move” in 2011. While Texas A&M at least has a generations-old National Championship to fall back on, as well as a nice big stadium, Missouri will enter the most powerful college football conference, at some point, presumably, with all the historical decorations and accomplishments of a thoroughbred race horse who finished out of the money in one too many races and ended up in the glue factory. Missouri officials and fans are confusing “winning realignment” with doing what is best for their school, their athletic department, and, most importantly, their football team, since that’s what all the 32-team super conference, Boise State to the Big East nonsense is all about. Yes, the same football team that is six games under .500 in the 15 year history of the Big 12, will now be entering a conference division that can claim 14 National Championships, or, two more championships than Missouri has bowl wins. Makes sense, right?

What is more valuable in college athletics, security or success? Missouri is putting its eggs in the basket of security, anticipating some sort enormous windfall at the expense of any future potential growth of its already flailing football program. While the promise of playing in the most visible, competitive, and history-laden conference will delivery an increase in revenue (which is the bottom line in Missouri’s eyes, regardless of how they try to spin the “instability” in the Big 12, the “instability” they themselves have created), Missouri will find out soon enough that they are a much smaller fish in a much bigger pond, most likely as soon as they take their first road trip to face Florida, Tennessee, or Georgia. By joining the SEC, Missouri will take an enormous step back in the visible, tangible things associated with college football. In terms of football budget, and overall athletic budget, Missouri would easily be in the bottom half, and most likely the bottom third of their new conference. When you can be lumped into a group, in football terms, with Kentucky, Vanderbilt, and Mississippi, what exactly does that say about your perceived place in the pecking order? Faurot Field, a nice sized 71,004 seat stadium instantly becomes the 10^th largest stadium in the SEC, or the 5^th smallest. Not that it would matter the size of Missouri’s stadium, since they have trouble filling it with any regularity in the first place. Last week’s match-up with top 5 and potential BCS Championship game participant Oklahoma State drew 64,202, more than 6500 fans away from capacity. A better showing than the 58,000+ that made it for the season opener against Miami of Ohio, but a glaring indication of the overall lack of fervent support for the state’s only BCS university. Football is religion in the SEC, and Missouri would appear to be in the category of a convenient believer.
http://sporting-ego.com/wp-content/u...ary-Pinkel.jpg Gary Pinkel has been one of the loudest voices for MU to move to the SEC..


The most amazing thing about Missouri’s inflated sense of stature in today’s college football landscape is that their “meteoric rise” to power under head coach Gary Pinkel is predicated on winning the worst division college football has ever seen, the Big 12 North circa 2006-2008. In the 15 year history of the Big 12, Missouri has fielded a legit top 10 team in exactly one season, the 2007 squad that won the Big 12 North, only to get soundly beaten by Oklahoma in the Big 12 Championship Game. That team, much like Missouri’s 2008 season, benefited from the rest of the Big 12 North employing the likes of Ron Prince, Bill Callahan, and Dan Hawkins, or, three coaches that will never be head coaches again at the FBS level. Throw in a slightly overrated Mark Mangino and a Cam Newton-less Gene Chizik, and Missouri’s amazing accomplishments appear to be more happenstance than anything that can be pointed at as a sign that the football program is ready to take a step up in competition. The 2011 season is showing a more realistic placing of where Missouri’s place, and Pinkel’s coaching, in the Big 12, as the previously mentioned unsuccessful coaches have since been replaced with coaches that know what they are doing, in most cases (except for Turner Gill). While Missouri is no longer the hapless program they were for years and year, to ignore the fact that Missouri has not won a conference title in football for more than 40 years, most years with a losing record, in the name of a few more dollars is a recipe for certain disaster.


Up to this point, programs such as Auburn, Alabama, LSU, and Arkansas have not even been discussed, being as all signs point to Missouri being placed in the SEC East at the request of certain programs’ wishes to keep currently football rivalry games. Throw those four power universities in the mix, and it is becoming easy to see why the SEC would want a team like Missouri. The conference can increase their TV footprint, gaining a state with 6 million residents, while adding another patsy to the schedule. No BCS title hopeful team wants a schedule loaded with top 5 teams, and the SEC is no exception. The potential to add an easy conference win, while increasing the conference revenue, is a no-brainer. Somehow, the ego-driven administration at Missouri refuse to see this move for what it is and what it is not. What it is certainly not is a conference looking to add teams in the hope that they gained yet another top 10 program to add to the stable. Making things tougher for the Alabama’s, LSU’s, Florida’s, and Auburn’s of the world are not how the SEC accumulated all their accolades and accomplishments over the years. What it is is a university that fails to see the long-term impact of their constant desire to be the pretty girl that everybody wants to talk to, even though they don’t offer a whole lot of substance.

http://sporting-ego.com/wp-content/u...finance039.jpg With MU moving to The SEC the Borderwar at Arrowhead Stadium is a thing of the Past..



By throwing away the chance to be competitive in a conference they helped start, Missouri is ignoring the flashing lights that point out the fatal flaws in their logic. They are too numerous to list in one column, but I‘m going to give it a shot. Recruiting in Texas will take a tremendous dip, due to no more regularly scheduled games in the state. The 12^th most important rivalry in the country (if that), and the most important one to the fans (The Border War), will be gone, thus eliminating one of the best parts of college athletics, the hated rivalry games. Good luck getting fired up for those annual games with South Carolina. Kansas City fans are left in the dark, as the Big 12 tournament will no longer be played in a state that has no member team. Have fun flying to the Georgia Dome to watch Missouri play a first-round game against Ole Miss. All other sports will enjoy those lengthy midweek flights to Gainesville and Athens for volleyball, or those weekend bus rides to play baseball against LSU or Alabama. By wanting to brag about some sort of “victory”, namely landing in the SEC, Missouri will be setting itself up for many, many years of uninterrupted defeat. At least they got paid.

:doh!:
Dumbshit

I guess that explains the whole Mistress of the Dark thing.

So? Saul Good is from Olathe. Citizens of Kansas are free to do and think what they wish. It is not a slave state.

Oh c'mon.

I can recognize douchiness and can remain extremely objective in regards to it.

Nothing I've ever seen on this board compares to "You guys don't know shit about aviation..."

It's not like he even tried to correct any perceived misconceptions, he just seized on some minor point to call anyone that had discussed it a bunch of misinformed shitheads, made vague allusions to what he did know (didn't actually respond to anyone that called those allusions into question) then promptly bailed out of the thread. I can only surmise that an adult looked at his posts and sent him to timeout or something.

It's a spectacular display of dickbag.

kstater mad, bro

I post almost nightly in the Royals thread during the season. Thus I am a fan of The Boys in Blue.

But living in NY I follow the Yankees quite closely. The drama created around the team is very entertaining.

Does that answer your question or do you have an insult to throw my way?

Stewie SHOULD be a run away winner.

Remind us again where your new vacation home is?

I am just upset that I wasn't invited to the party. :harumph:



This thread has brought me as close to trolling as I can ever get. I am the anti-douche. :(

Given the choice of following two $3itty baseball teams or taking advantage of the ability to sample new and great eats each and every day.

Well....

Nope. I just wasn't sure.

You'll just need to work on improving your douchy skills.

God knows there are enough role models around here for you to emulate. :D

:LOL: See I laughed my ass off at the aviation smack, it was just that stupid, it was hilarious. I was in that business a long time myself, but I saw no reason to get involved, you guys were doing a fine job.

This thread:


Chapter 11ty - BorderDouche


I could just hang out in DC for a while. That seems to be the magic elixir.

You might want to take a few laps here before hitting the deep end.

It is almost Arkansas. :D I think I could hit a 3 wood to the border, well it would take several good hits.

I kid, I kid, I am going to be a full time resident in 3 years, but my loyalty will always be in Kansas. 16 years up here has not dampened it any, just like longer hasn't dampened your Mizzou loyalties.

Did you see this little nugget in KStater's article?

Kansas...Arkansas...not much difference...

Yes, I saw that. I'm guessing the author got raped at a Missouri truck stop once.

Only time will tell. I'm sure not thrilled about going forward with Schottenpinkel, though.

**** it, the cure is worse then the disease.

I see what you did there, LMAO, just an Ar, but geographically it is night and day.
Not much difference in Missouri and Misery either.

Really? This is the first I recall reading of a Mizzou loyalest being disenchanted with Pinkel.
I thought he was Nick Saben 2? No?

Who the hell said that? He's a horrible game day coach. And I wouldn't let Yost or Steckel wash my car. ****ing idiots.

In a perfect world Pinkel would handle recruiting and we'd get a real coach and a real staff to run the damn team.

THIS!

Pinkel is an awesome recruiter... I don't think he will take a demotion though.

Not sure anyone did, but I have literally read this whole thread and had the impression the sun rose and set in Pinkel. Call me stupid I guess.

Several posts proclaimed that Pinkel had built the program into a contender, from being towards the bottom of the conference. I do know that was said.

Pinkel's also a phenomenal administrator and generally a good leader. He's also a very good representative of the University.

**** demoting him - make him the AD.

We can find a better tactical coach (hell, I think Christensen is that guy) and we'd still get the benefit of all the things he does very well.

Love him or hate him - this is Gary Pinkel's program and without his efforts we are not getting this interest from the SEC. He's stubborn and occasionally he just doesn't seem to have his guys ready to play, but he's still no worse than an average game-coach (there are legitimately awful ones out there) and he adds a hell of a lot to the program outside of that.

That is true, but I don't personally believe he can get us to the next level.

There are usually a few (dumb) voices out there saying he sucks, but he has built a fine football team to win games in the Big-whatever's-left. Every coach makes a mistake sometimes but he has won a hell of a lot of games over a number of years. Pinkel is a proven commodity.

He will need to adapt. He will need to come up with something to use inside the 10 on offense, and they will have to play better defense. We will need to improve our net punting average, we know how critical that is. But the recruits will be coming to make all that work.

Pinkel is a great head coach. He is looking forward to this challenge, and not only that, welcoming and advocating for it.

They can promote him to ****ing chancellor if it gets him off the field. While I appreciate what he's done for the school and the program, he's NOT the guy we need coaching this team.

He can't even beat Kansas State any more - what the hell do you think's going to happen when he goes up against LSU?

:shake:

awesome.

get back in the closet

They need a real QB, in my opinion. Pinkel is fine.

KK says Rick Perry was a driving force for aTm going to the SEC. Everything I have read has indicated that Perry has stayed out of the situation entirely.

Perry was a vocal supporter, but I've seen nothing to indicate that he fueled this.

I have a friend who's boss is actually on the A&M Board or Regents (unfortunately his 'scoops' tended to be stuff that was already starting to trickle out so I never had any self-important "hey you guys" moments...). He told me that the entire A&M board was furious about Texas and the LHN and was ready to go. He only gave me one direct quote from his boss and it was "Texas has violated a sacred trust..."

Granted, that's sappy bullshit, but it shows what everyone associated with A&M was thinking. Rick Perry didn't fuel anything, the Aggies were gone on their own.

Kietzman is an ignorant shithead. He truly knows nothing about anything.

That is what I figured, and had read. It was to be expected though I suppose....today was blame the politicians day for KK.

Coming from you that's a helluva compliment! I should be in the poll...I want some write-in votes!

Is there really any difference between being OU/UT's bitch than being Bama/LSU's bitch?
