Last post by WhiteTrash - Today at 11:06:49 AMQuote from: wadesworld on Today at 10:43:03 AMThis is two years removed from Mizzou's 0-18 season. They went from 0-18 in the SEC to a Tourney team. Their recruits following that disaster of a season included one of the best transfers in the country from Duke and a top 30 recruit in the country. And if they're back to a dumpster fire, they just signed the #6 recruiting class in the country, including the #3 player. So apparently some good talent is willing to join dumpster fires at times for the right money.

Thankfully a lot of high level athletes don't think like message board fans.
MU has some high level athletes. They need some athletes who are highly skilled players and who are built for the physicality of the BE.

Last post by WhiteTrash - Today at 11:04:15 AMQuote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 10:24:38 AMI'm positive he earns more than I do, but to me, as a 49-year-old, since he's still in college and representing our alma mater, he's still a kid. No disrespect meant. I called my then 27-year-old assistant "kid," and she didn't mind. In fact, she'd tease me right back about my age.That's fair. The current situation in college BB and FB is, shall we say, challenging for all to say the least.

Last post by MU82 - Today at 10:59:24 AMQuote from: JWags85 on Today at 10:44:55 AMIsiah Whitlock Jr, aka Clay Davis in the Wire, passed away at 71. In a show full of wild characters, phrases, and moments, I would argue Clay's "sheeeeeiiiittt" is the most enduring and transcendent pop culture tidbit from the show. I probably say it monthly if not more.
He was great in Veep, good in Your Honor, and did tons of work with Spike Lee. But Clay Davis was an all time character. RIP to a cult legend
Yeah, I threw this in the "what are you watching" thread. Shoulda done what you did with a new topic. Either way, his character was one of the many memorable parts of The Wire, and he was also fun in Veep.

Last post by MU82 - Today at 10:57:56 AMThis email I received today does not give me the greatest faith in Vanguard brokerage:
Welcome to 2021! We're here to help you get off to a strong start.
While the tax-filing deadline is months away, it's not too soon to get prepared—and Vanguard's online tax center is a great place to start. We've gathered lots of helpful information there, including:
When to expect your 2020 tax forms. (You can also sign up for e-delivery to be notified as soon as your forms are available online.)
Why you might not receive IRS Form 1099-DIV.
Where to find the 2020 dividend and capital gains distributions for your Vanguard funds.
But hey, at least they got the decade right!

Last post by wadesworld - Today at 10:53:49 AMQuote from: SOSW on Today at 10:45:51 AMI've seen stuff like "the momentum from last season carried over to this one" multiple times. It's not unheard of at all.
By the way,it's very odd that you repeatedly call people here "whiners" yet you're out here calling this season a "catastrophe."
Maybe you should have some more self-reflection.
Yeah there are a lot of people whining about meaningless things. Including the record of a team over a 12 month period, as if that matters at all.
Let's pretend we win 4 more total games this year. Somehow Shaka hits the portal hard, knocks it out of the park, Egbuonu and Sheek are immediate contributors, our non-con schedule isn't amazing next season, and we play DePaul and Providence to start BE play before New Years next year and we start 12-2 before 1/1/27. Do you really think people will really be referencing going .500 in the year 2026?
"Nice start to the season boys! But only .500 in 2026. Barely better than 2025. Not good enough."

You should probably take your own advice.
And I've not once heard anyone say momentum on the floor carries over 7-8 months later. That's ludicrous.

Scoop as a collective: "Starting no matta. Minutes and closing mattas"...until the team stinks and we can't just whine about things that are actually going wrong. Then we're going to call a guy playing 36 minutes being "benched" because Shaka is "petty" and the kid deserves so much better.
Buddy, that's 4 minutes too many let alone starting the game off in a hole every night.
What don't you get about it? He should be playing 0 minutes. 0 seconds. Not starting every single game. This is a 20 loss team, because there was a decision made somewhere along the line that he was a starter caliber. They are only making it worse by continuing to believe he is a starter.
He was a -1 in a 40 point win earlier in the season. 😂
