So welcome, new SECBSH's!

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

but I think y'all will definitely make good additions.

I thought you said the SEC wasn't "desperate" enough to take Mizzou, and that they weren't "geographically proper?"

[King Crimson]

as a Vanderbilt grad, all this SEC yoga blind humping is just like i remember... SEC honking. self fellatio.

[Carson]

When do we tell them about "Hell Week?"

[Truman]

Fixed

[War Wagon]

Drinks & nibbles for A&M and Mizzou fans - you're in the club now!

hmmm...

thanks, I guess. You're too kind and I appreciate the southern hospitality, but please to not call this Mizzou fan an SECBSH. That will never happen in my lifetime.

[Van]

Not to mention Sam stating that he doesn't want Mizzou and ATM in the SEC because they'll only further water down the conference with two more meh football programs.

He's right, of course, but let's at least try to maintain a modicum of consistency in our takes, okay, SECBSH's?

And for the record, I thought the exact same thing when I heard about Colorado joining the Pac. Other than adding a middling-at-best portion of the Denver television market, which really doesn't mean a whole lot considering the Pac already owned the California/Portland/Seattle/Phoenix markets, Colorado brings nothing in terms of athletics to the table. I'm not sure that Utah will, either. Would've much rather seen Utah packaged with BYU, never mind that whole 'Sandy Koufax won't pitch on the Sabbath' argument. Arrangements could have been made to accommodate the ridiculous precepts of their silly cult.

[R-Jack]

When do we tell them about "Hell Week?"

No need. 8th grade proficiency exams are used everywhere.

[Truman]

Sam stating that he doesn't want Mizzou and ATM in the SEC because they'll only further water down the conference with two more meh football programs.

I like the Missouri folks in here just fine.

This.

Our anger has nothing to do with the Southeastern Conference. The SEC folk in here are fine people, and no doubt a pretty good representation of their respective fanbases and the schools they jock. I'm sure we'll get in the sperit of things around here eventually.

But not immediately. Where many of us are sideways with this move lies with the petulance, arrogance, and general asshattery of our sitting governor, his toadie, Brady Deaton, and his hand-picked Board of Lapdogs which led to this ill-thought move in the first place. Even our local politicians - with an annual windfall of $15 extra-large all-but guaranteed to walk - virtually treated the move as a third-rail issue and fled from the controversry for fear of irritating the sensibilities of Kanzler Nixon.

Recall is too good a fate for this SOB. Given our new (and old) southern roots, a good tar-and-feathering would be more appropriate...[/rant]

I understand it being a big deal...as well as a political hot potato.

This was a major, major move for the university.

But I think you've done the right thing as far as security and finances. I know Mizzou wanted to join the Big Ten (and thought they were in) as it was a better fit academically apparently. Don't know why they went with Nebraska over you guys.

U of M will do fine with the SEC. You're gonna be dragging down a crapload of money (the SEC shares bowl money among all the schools) and the academics aren't inferior as some asshats in here want to believe.

If you make it to away games, you'll love Tuscaloosa, Auburn, Gainesville, Knoxville, Athens...hmmmm you're in the East...never been to a game in Lexington, but it's a beautiful city. Nashville's a fun city. Shitloads of good music...not just country bars by any means. Never been to Columbia.

Anyway, it'll take a long time to adjust, but it'll be good for the school financially. And you know damn well the Big 12 is going to implode before long, so you had to do something.

^^^^^

Gets it.

This is a HUGE step up academically, sports-wise, and fiscally for MIZZOU.....much more than the Big 10 would have been and definitely over what will be left of the Big 12 once Texas and Oklahoma bolt. Columbia, MO is a great college town and will fit right in with the rest of the SEC, although from the games I have been to in Baton Rouge, Oxford and Auburn we have to step it up a bit. College football is a religion in the south and makes the stupid kansas-Missouri "tradition" look like a joke in comparison, not to mention we get to trade Ames, Lowrents, Manhattan, Norman, Lubbock, etc for Gainesville, Tuscaloosa, Nashville, Knoxville, Athens, Oxford, Baton Rouge, etc. Small minds like Truman, Scott, Whitey, etc. can't think past their neighborhood Applebee's.

Major move forward!

[Van]

Really? The SEC is a "HUGE step up" academically from the Big 10?

I think "step up" does not mean what you think it means.

[Mace]

When have facts ever gotten in the way of a KCK post? He's Forrest Gump without the millions from the shrimp business, the medals from military service, and football heroics. He had the box of chocolates but he ate all of them.

[Kansas City Kid]

With the exception of Northwestern (and Vanderbilt is superior), the Big 10 is full of crappy state schools that are no better than anything the SEC offers.

[Mace]

I ain't lookin' up US NEws and World Report or some other bunch that rate colleges, but I'd be willing to bet the education one receives at most any SEC school is comparable to that of a PAC12, Big Ten, or Big 12 (definitely) school.

That might be true, Sam, but where's the "big step up" over the Big 10? I haven't bothered to look up the college rankings either but I'm guessing that someone else will do just that.

[Kansas City Kid]

Kaley is the quintessential fatass lacking any self discipline or impulse control. Every thread looks like a deep fried twinkie to him. Hitting submit is the equivilant to shoving it into his gaping maw and washing it down with a diet Mountain dew.

Case in point

Fatass didn't know that the SEC only had two AAU rated schools Vandy and Florida. Part of why they wanted aTm & Mizzou was that accreditation.

Oh yea, and all 12 schools in the Big 10 are AAU

Take a think lap, Tubby

Scott is the quintessential meat gazer lacking any self discipline or impulse control when near a steam room or muscled men. Every thread looks like an Italian sausage to him. Hitting submit is the equivilant to shoving a weiner into his gaping maw and washing it down with a lasso of manstarch.

You do realize that AAU only means they have enough research hours logged and paid a fee, right? I guess your Central Missouri State Associate's Degree hasn't helped.

Take a steam, Gay Boy.

[Truman]

A few more salad bars; a few less candy bars, I always say...

[Kansas City Kid]

That you discount AAU accreditation isn't a surprise, especially since you worked in education

Nope, you have me confused with someone else. Never worked in education but at least I have one. All you and Truman have are eachother's bungs to dribble population paste all over after Applebee's.

Enjoy your steam and hot tub together before admiring muscles and starting another boring thread about something you can't afford but tried to buy, Gay Boy.

[Van]

Sam, I'd be willing to take your bet, especially where the Pac 10 and Big 10 and are concerned. Between Stanford, Cal, UCLA and USC I'm fairly sure the Pac more than has Vandy covered. Northwestern is on par with Vandy, and I believe Michigan trumps Florida by a wide margin, as well as any other SEC school. If there's anything the SEC as a whole is not known for, it's conference-wide stellar academics.

[Screw_Michigan]

Still laughing over here, Hoss.

I know. The Big 10 is a fucking joke.

[Van]

And that's more than enough. They can always hire smart northerners for the trickier projects.

[Truman]

With apologies to Screwey and Dins....

Kaley is a fat dude
He’s as big as a house, and he’ll eat all your food
He's got rolls and rolls of ugly fat, hanging over his belt he's the Kansas City Kid.
Yeah, he found a dozen Hooter’s wings.
In his mommy’s fridge hidden behind a bunch of green things, and I know you are but what am I?
And he’ll tard up the Board, while he plows through a pie.

Kansas City Kid with the fucked up takes, weighs a ton, weighs a ton, and he’s gonna get run
Kansas City Kid with the fucked up takes, weighs a ton, weighs a ton, watch him Hoover a buffet

Mommy works on her back.
She'll be bringing home soon a BK Value Pack.
And he stuffs his grill with apple pies.
Dinner's long been in his belly but he’s hungry for fries.
His weight is nearing all-time.
Yeah another éclair and he’ll be that much bigger,
He squeezes another roll of fat.
And he can’t see his junk but now has huge man tits, yeah.

Kansas City Kid with the fucked up takes, weighs a ton, weighs a ton, and he’s gonna get run

[Screw_Michigan]

WOW. That might just be the biggest ass kicking to verse I've ever read on this board. Tit for tat, note for note.

[War Wagon]

I was desperately trying to make the Missouri kids feel at home.

why?

Like I told spray, we appreciate the hospitality, but you folks really are being too kind.

It's not like you took in some stray dog off the street. The move was purely a business decision made by both parties, without regard to the emotional ties that bound Mizzou to the conference it helped start in 1907.

Honestly, I haven't come to grips with this whole deal just yet. It's like a messy divorce, and we're the kid sent off to live with his rich uncle.

[Truman]

Lemme know when playin' Georgia is supposed to scary, 'kay, Willie? TIA

You people are A&M anymore, without the good quarterback play...

[Bizzarofelice]

Where many of us are sideways with this move lies with the petulance, arrogance, and general asshattery of our sitting governor, his toadie, Brady Deaton, and his hand-picked Board of Lapdogs which led to this ill-thought move in the first place.

What the fuck is all of this? You're freaking out on Gov Nixon over this? Really?

[War Wagon]

Tru don't cotton to no democrat, Bace.

I like Jay Nixon, he came to my company for a photo op, and busts his ass trying to create jobs.

I don't vote for many Dems, well none, actually... but he might have earned my vote.

[Truman]

What the fuck is all of this? You're freaking out on Gov Nixon over this? Really?

No, “freaking out” would be driving to St. Louis to punch you in the cunt.

Did Gov. Nixon not cheerlead a move to the B1G last year, and piss off Nebraska on the way out in the process?
Did Gov. Nixon not cheerlead a move to the SEC this year, and piss off the whole conference on the way out in the process?
Did Gov. Nixon not hand-pick the Missouri Board of Curators?
Did Gov. Nixon not delay the appointment of Thomas Hoenig, Iowa State grad with deep roots in the Big 8 and the Big XII as Systems President back in July?

Tired of waiting for confirmation, Hoenig accepted a position to serve President Obama as Vice Chairman of the FDIC. BTW, Systems President is the defacto CEO and ultimate decision maker for such little trivialities as conference realignment.

Make no mistake, Bace, this entire move was orchestrated by Jay Nixon. It is his legacy. And If I ever see him, I will fight him…

[Truman]

Tru don't cotton to no democrat, Bace.

Bite me. I voted for Mike Sanders (D) for Jackson County Executive in 2008, and will again next fall.

But he's the only one...

[Truman]

Lemme know when playin' Georgia is supposed to scary, 'kay, Willie? TIA

You people are A&M anymore, without the good quarterback play...

Dude - I hate UGA as much as I do Alabama! I can assure you, when Mizzou plays UGA, I'll damned near be Sanduskying the state of Missouri.

The fuck did I just say?

Dammit, Willie! :doh:

Auburn, right? Still learnin' here. I get nine more guesses, btw...

Almost as bad as Sammy referring to us earlier as U of M. Those folks play waaay up north and consider a 20 point game as a reg'lar scoring outburst....

[Goober McTuber]

I heard Missouri described yesterday as "the ugly girl at the end of the bar at closing time with nowhere to go".

So she went home with a dozen toothless, in-bred hillbillies. Yeehaw!

I hope you fall into a full port-o-potty at the state fair and end up up with your face stuck looking up and mouth open while Paul has a Twinkie diahrrea into your mouth and your son sits there laughing and jerking off.

Minor nit, but Nebraska is no longer in the AAU (first member ever to be voted out, IIRC, although others have left voluntarily). So that's 11 of 12 in the B1G.

And while AAU membership is prestigious, and I obviously have a bias in this regard, I wouldn't quite call it the be-all and end-all of discussion as to what constitutes a great academic university. There are plenty of outstanding academic institutions that are not AAU members. Dartmouth, Georgetown, and my alma mater come to mind rather quickly in that regard.

I heard Missouri described yesterday as "the ugly girl at the end of the bar at closing time with nowhere to go".

I heard that same description as well, although it was several months ago and in a drastically different context. At the time, it looked like the Texas and Oklahoma schools were headed to the Pac-12, the Big XII was about to implode with the Big East and/or ACC picking up the scraps. A few months changed things dramatically.

[Truman]

Almost as bad as Sammy referring to us earlier as U of M. Those folks play waaay up north and consider a 20 point game as a reg'lar scoring outburst....

Are you not the University of Missouri?

Well, yeah, Sammy, but since we're all settin' around and sayin' "howdy" an' stuff, just thought I'd offer up proper parlance for your new conference-mates. After all, you all don't roll by AU, right? I'm thinking that moniker probably belongs to the folks just east of you.

"Mizzou"; or "MU" if you must, Sam. We're the second of the three "Tiger" schools in this conference ( ) that actually wears one unique to their school on its uniform. That U of M place you speak of stole their helmet design from Delaware.

[Bizzarofelice]

Did Gov. Nixon not delay the appointment of Thomas Hoenig, Iowa State grad with deep roots in the Big 8 and the Big XII as Systems President back in July?

Christ. You gotta be trolling.

[Bizzarofelice]

I heard Missouri described yesterday as "the ugly girl at the end of the bar at closing time with nowhere to go".

Terrible analogy. Mizzou and A&M are going somewhere. Most of the other Big 12 teams are sticking it out with the Big 12 not because they want to but because they were not invited to leave the bar with someone.

Mizzou is the ugly girl getting picked up at closing time.

Kansas is going home to yet another night with the two-AA battery powered prostate massager.

[Bizzarofelice]

Iowa has been pretty good at getting our night fighters.

and Wingo from Arkie is one of ours.

but recently Gabbert and Maclin went from 314 to Mizzou so maybe things are turnin around.
