re: A&M and Mizzou

Personally I wasn't initially happy when Mizzou joined the SEC for three reasons: 1) Mizzou was losing all of its traditional rivals 2) I thought Mizzou would have a hard time competing in football or worse 3) I wasn't a big SEC fan. Two years into the move I will be the first to admit I was wrong. I am now very glad Mizzou made the move. Look I don't know how well Mizzou is going to do in the future in football, but I like the way the conference works and I love the passion of the SEC fans. Good or bad at least most of the fan bases care. I never felt that way in the Big 8/Big 12. And although there is a lot of sniping, I do get the feeling most of the fans are not just fans of their team, but also of the SEC.
