St. Louis, by the time the Civil War broke out, was a Northern city in a Southern state

quote:

“If your readers want to consider why St. Louis is not regarded as a part of Missouri in a lot of ways, it goes back to that reality.”

Though Missouri did not secede from the Union, the state was represented by one of the 13 stars on the Confederate flag. That distinction can be traced to the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the political maneuvering in Congress that admitted Missouri into the Union as a slave state in 1821.

“Missouri was, by far, the northernmost slave state,” Gerteis said. “If you look at a map that shows the slave states and the free states, Missouri is way up there, surrounded on three sides by free states.’’

In other words, Missouri is as dixie as the south, but needed that sweet, sweet yankee $ to get into the conference.

You think slavery binds the Southeastern Conference together?

You kind of suck.

You had me at the outlaw Josey Wales. But to just make absolutely certain, how does your state feel about LeBron James?

We're more focused on the Chiefs and Cardinals than the NBA.

You don't necessarily have to see the Poop Swastika to believe in the Poop Swastika.

If the Mizzou posters didn't remind us, no one would remember that Mizzou is in the SEC. You guys just don't matter. No one thinks negatively of you because no one thinks of you.

If Memphis and New Orleans had a baby together, they would name it St. Louis.

What's sad is kansas thinking they have more to offer to the country outside of basketball.

Sounds like a house divided. A true Confederate State can make a composite redneck and there is zero deviation.

Application denied.
