re: Consequences of MU Sinking Vandy's Battleship

They haven't played each other since before the fricking depression. Are you really digging that far to find something with which to shite on Mizzou?

Why do you always have to bring it back to Mizzou? Are you that narcissistic or insecure to not look at the other school while looking at your own?

Take a look at this graph LINK and look at how good Vanderbilt was until World War II. Many good football schools never recovered to their former glory but at least they paid their dues early on in the pioneer days of college football. Early Vanderbilt leadership helped built this conference and the NCAA as well. Georgia tech, Tulane, and Sewanee have all fallen behind and dropped out of the SEC and only Vandy remains to stand stalwart in the face of many losses yet they are still here. You could learn something from that but instead you only look in the mirror and preen with great vanity. If you lose this year will you still makes excuses like a petulant child or will you step up to the plate, say "good game", and dust yourself off for the next battle?

ps. The Texas comment was not a full on dig at the Tigers but involves the history of the Dores beating Texas at the State Fair so many times that the longhorns stopped playing them and started playing Oklahoma there instead.
