Yeah I know, you're Bama, you win NC's and nothing else matters but you may want to think about the economic growth that would come from a MIZZOU victory and how important it would be to the Gumpville economy.

Let's go through this scenario with just a few examples of why my previous statement has merit.

(1) Carpet cleaners totally inundated for weeks cleaning carpets and furniture from the Gumps watching the big screen and losing their bowels after the Bama loss.

(2) Retail sales of TV's, home theater equipment, chairs, miscellaneous household goods destroyed in fits of rage and disbelief.

(3) General contractors repairing drywall damage, plumbing fixtures, doors, windows, etc.

(4) Auto body repair from drunken gumps loose on the road smashing into shite left and right.

(5) Liquor/beer sales hitting record levels across the state in an attempt to drown the pain.

Look this is just what the Bama economy needs and MIZZOU is more than happy to help our SEC brethren jump start the economy in your poverty stricken state.

Frederic Bastiat laughs at your broken window fallacy.

Read it wrong. Irony.

Don't forget the local hospitals and morticians when they stab each other for not being upset enough at the loss.

I know a number of Missouri alumni, classy individuals all. You fail to make the cut.

The one's damaging their own property because of a football game likely have absolutely no means to replace said property.

Although #5 is probably pretty accurate

You need to work on your economic theory. That would be a closed system, so the economic boon wouldn't actually translate into wealth.

(6) Funeral Homes. No explanation is needed.

Actually, pretty funny, if one has any sense of humor. Certainly some measurable economic opportunities.

And no....Mizzou fans do not and would not react the same as the highly visible Bama fans to any loss, no matter how shocking. It appears the average Bama fan, thinks there is no way Bama could lose the game. Average Mizzou fans know our team could pull off an upset or lay an egg.
