Ok, but tell my why your basketball team sucked
Well, I know the bar is pretty high in the SEC basketball world. So on behalf of Mizzou, accept my apologies for not doing well in the NCAA tournament.

We can thank Texas for fricking everything up for the rest of us. If they had just been anything other than the greedy pieces of shite they are, all of this realignment mess never happens.
I was against the idea of expansion from day 1, but it was always going to happen and it will happen one more time if the Big 10, Pac 12, or SEC can lure away a couple of Big 12 or ACC teams and cause one or both of those conferences to begin the Big East death cycle by adding a bunch of C-USA and Sunbelt teams as replacements.

Say what you want about the Big 12, but people were saying the same thing about Mizzou once the Texas teams came. Obviously there wasn't any conference championships, but Mizzou winning Big 12 divisional championships was something that was "never" going to happen not too long ago.
It was really difficult to beat out all those Big 12 North powerhouses, huh?

Texas A&M was and is an awesome addition to the SEC. Quit being dickheads.

Hopefully it happens to the Big 12.

Already happening. They're one bad season away from adding Louisville and Cincinnati for backup.
ETA: forgot about the ACC. Conference realignment got really boring for me recently.

Hopefully TCU or OSU win the Big 12. The two traditional big boys are in decline, especially Oklahoma. They are in free fall I would say.

oklahoma has been kicked out of the state, and thus have nowhere to recruit. Texas and A&M will get theirs every year.

Thank you, your apology is accepted contingent upon at least making it to the Sweet 16 in 2014

Wait, we're a top ten team, we're initiating construction on the SEC's largest venue, we have fans with gobs of money, we just produced a Heisman winner and three other All-Americans, and we had arguably the greatest offense in SEC history last year ...
... yet we're diluting the SEC.
No.
That's not dilution. That's your arse bleeding all over the OP.

No kidding. This is getting out of hand with the media going after A&M and Manziel. They're starting to not even make sense.

The media has never created a celebrity without the intent of bringing them down and shitting all over them at some point.
It's media rules, Johnny's just been in an accelerated version of the cycle. He's not helping himself out, though.

Go back to the original 10.

Thamel was just on Fbaum when he said this. Despite being one of the biggest scum douchebags in sports, I actually agree with him on this. A&M and all their "baby mama" type drama with JFF and Mizzou being an outsider whose only job was to be good in basketball and ultimately failing miserably, you guys are not having a positive affect on the conference
I wish I could just tell you to STFU and that would be the end of it, but unfortunately, this mindset never leaves many neanderthals living in SEC lands. So, Mizzou and A&M fans, I'll just advise you to get used to it, because some will always consider you an outsider; ignorant fricks that they are.

That sucks, even though current students at any SEC school weren't alive when Arky was in the SWC. I think they're mostly saying it to get under our skin.
