we may not have a fairy tale year (this year) but
I think we will have a competitive team that doesn't quit or mail it in- and thats a reversal we can all get behind (except our hater contingency)

          yes! - Beakerbasher KC - 11/30 20:29:40
     Maybe to calm some of these people down - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:30:19
     I saw the AD in the locker room....nm - tigertix MU - 11/30 16:20:28

          Make sure you put this out there - Gavin Citrus MU - 11/30 19:22:08
          You don't think much of the conference?(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:27:37
               I do, but the average team isn't top 20. (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 16:32:47
                    The 9th place team is not top 20 - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:34:44
          Failure is not playing hard, being unwatchable,& trolling, - Macgrantt MU - 11/30 15:59:25
     I am convinced Gates was an excellent hire - JG MU - 11/30 14:56:02
          The team clearly plays hard for him and it's a fun style - OntheMark MU - 11/30 18:05:08
          some of you are easily fooled by a hyperweak non-con... - zounami MU - 11/30 15:41:57
               Are you expecting wins in those 2 games? - Jmill88 MU - 11/30 17:15:09
                    well, KU has struggled and *barely* beat Southern Utah... - zounami MU - 11/30 17:25:18
               You sure give Drink more rope(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:19:43
                    wrong... if we went 8-0 against FCS opponents, I would be - zounami MU - 11/30 16:23:08
                         Dude you cut Drink way too much slack - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:24:43
                              I'm stating objective facts... why don't you take this - zounami MU - 11/30 16:25:41
                                   There are also positive objective facts, but you never seem - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:34:51
                                        My posts are neutral, not negative. I'm saying it's unclear - zounami MU - 11/30 16:36:43
                                             Thats just not true. When someone posts something positive - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:57:56
                                             We don't need that experiment here though(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:38:16
                                                  neutrality and objectivity?... it's more than what the - zounami MU - 11/30 16:42:35
                                        Look like more of a team(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:35:12
                                   I hardly take a tone these days. I just don't know where - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:26:33
                         (and btw, with several of them being near-losses) (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 16:23:58
                              Which were near misses? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 16:44:42
                                   near losses (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 16:45:10
                                        Penn, Southern Indiana, Wichita State (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 17:02:53
                                             Mizzou led Southern Indiana by double digits from - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 17:11:56
                                                  Penn was a tie game with 6 minutes remaining, and only - zounami MU - 11/30 17:22:14
                                                  it was a two-possession game (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 17:14:52
                                                       USI baked a 3 in with 5 seconds left. - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 17:17:49
                                                            So what? They pulled within 6 and might have won if there - zounami MU - 11/30 17:20:26
                                                                 Yes if the game was 48 minutes that could have changed thing - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 17:35:44
                                                                      or 41 minutes... a two-possession game can change quickly (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 17:58:46
                                                                           So your saying it was a close loss if - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 18:04:43
                                                                                no, I'm saying it was a two-possession game (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 18:06:59
                                                                                     So that’s a different argument than - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 18:16:43
                                                                                          2 possessions is a close loss, IMO (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 18:41:33
                                                                                               It’s a win that was never in doubt - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 18:46:33
                                                                                                    It was close. Southern Indiana simply ran out of time. (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 18:49:30
                                                                                                         That’s funny (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 18:55:46
                                        Which do you consider near losses? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 11/30 16:51:58
                                             (see reply above) (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 17:03:16
               He didnt say a single word claiming they were good - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:19:04
                    "I'm convinced it was an excellent hire"... - zounami MU - 11/30 16:22:38
                         You've convinced me - JG MU - 11/30 16:38:15
                         So youre doubling down. He never once said this years team - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:24:34
                              and I never said he said that (nm) - zounami MU - 11/30 16:25:02
                                   So youre just randomly responding with disconnected - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:28:12
                                        This is why I am confused about Zounami's passion - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:29:16

                                             It seems the passion is just to **** on any positive point - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:30:25
                                                  He typically seems very reasonable on the football board - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:31:16
                                                       It’s the way of the current world. Dig your heels in on your - MIZtigerZOU MU - 11/30 16:32:23
                                                            If your wrong, your wrong...don't worry about it - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:33:50
                                   What is your endgame here?(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 11/30 16:25:16
                                        His end game is to generate negative attention by trolling - Macgrantt MU - 11/30 16:31:18
                                        As always, to discuss Mizzou sports... - zounami MU - 11/30 16:25:59
