You can criticize the school on logical matters all you want. That is not the same as dissing.

Criticizing a school for changing a tradition it didn't have in the first place is not one of those items. And if it upsets such people that a school with no tradition abandons their traditions, maybe they need to find something that doesn't upset them. Sports are about enjoyment and entertainment, not reasons to complain needlessly. Maybe logic and reasoning is too much for you. If so, maybe you should find another thread.

My words indicate I'm a rational, logical person who doesn't resort to name calling to make a point. What do your words say about you?

There is nothing logical what so ever about telling a long time fan to find another team to root for because they dislike a uniform change for whatever reason. It wasnt meant as a suggestion to reedus, it was meant as a shot at that poster. When you start down that path of taking shots at others because you don't like their opinions you dont get to come back and play the "victim" when called for your nonsense.

I, obviously, care less what you think of me but the attempt to hide behind cries of "logic"or my implied inability to think logically, as an ad hominem, to defend yourself is laughable.

What about saying I prefer the block "M" or old gold or no silver on the helmets is illogical? What about saying the program is undergoing a makeover is illogical?(hell, I think the AD itself has said they're re-branding the program). What about saying the current uniforms etc. are not the same as what I grew up with is illogical? And I sure as hell don't see it as dissing the school or team. If you can point to exactly where I dissed the team and not simply stated my preference or critiqued some action, I'll gladly take it back because it certainly wasn't intended that way.

Where did I say it upsets me? If I did, maybe I misspoke. I thought I even said the changes are cool, I just prefer what I grew up with.

BTW, I think saying Mizzou has no tradition is dissing the school but I won't be a douche to you and point that out.
