re: Aggie Hate Week- FU Mike Slive edition

I think A&M was a great addition to the conference, actually. They seemed like a good fit almost immediately. Their traditions are pretty weird(don't really care) but they have a large and passionate fanbase with an administration dedicated to winning. They have fielded competitive teams since joining the league and recruit at a high level. Those are the things that make the SEC what it is. Most of us dislike them but that should be viewed as a positive because irrelevance is bad for the league.

I'm not trolling or intentionally being an a-hole here, but I don't feel the same about Missouri. I know they've won the East twice and we played them in the SECCG but they just feel out of place for whatever reason. It's probably because they're in the East or something but when I watch their games I don't have strong feelings about them in any way really. Maybe one of the East teams' fans would be a better judge in that regard since they play them more often. Even when they were making a run and ranked highly a few years ago I didn't make the subconscious association of that being an SEC team in the top 5. I'm sure my feelings will change over time though.
