I think the WH is wrong to not support this. You obviously think the tariffs are going to achieve whatever the end-goal is, lean into it as a way of saying, now you know the cost of not not buying American made goods.

Of course. I just think there are easier/ cheaper options than displacement or interruption to the rest of the AD for a program that receives zero support anyway.

There have been complaints over the last few years in the AD that Hearns isn't big enough for what they currently need anyway, and was a reason the new arena was built.

Collegiate sports have changed with regards to how practices are scheduled over the last 20 years, since Hearns has been converted, which means the availabletime they are allowed to practice has been condensed. Each sport gets 4 hours of practice time daily, but once you add on the locker room stuff (i.e. recovery, rehab, study) it would be a nightmare (but obviously not impossible) for space.

I could see this working. Baseball plays at some school field while they build the new "Olympic Sports" facility. No disruption to them during construction and they just move when completed.

It would mean baseball is playing at a middle school for 2+ years. :lol:

How would you integrate volleyball (M&W), gymnastics, wrestling, and basketball (M&W) into one facility without impacting each of the others - especially Basketball?
The Farm Subsidies act as a tool to help manage inflation in the food sector by reducing volatility. Remove the subsidies and farmers will grow less and have to raise prices to be able to make a profit.

Now, one can argue overall if that policy is a good/bad thing and if the market would be better off without it, but that money is either coming out of your pocket as taxes or as a higher grocery bill.

The main problem with fan interest in the Mizzou baseball program is that it has to be locals who attend. Even when we were decent to good, no one was driving 90 minutes to attend a college baseball game when they could just go to a Cards game instead.

They need to provide a reason for the CoMo crowd to show up during a weekend.

With all that being said if you gave me the option when I was attending of either going to a Mizzou game or driving to STL for a Cards game, I chose the Cardinals every time, amd that was when we were good and going to the Regionals each year. Baseaball is the one sport where I just don't get the appeal of watching the inferior product.

It's a chicken/egg problem. Where does one go while the other is being built?
Chemicals will only ever do so much, especially if you are surrounded by an environment that isn't controled. You need to make sure to reduce their habitat as much as possible - remove leaves and dead grass.

That would be a nice change of pace.
There was an investigation by the UN Human Rights Commission.
Yanukovych was removed from office by Parliament after fleeing the country. This vote was supported by both sides.


He fled the country because he ordered a detachment of the military (who just happened to declare alligience Russia right after) to kidnap and murder activist leaders, and also order the firing into a crowd of protesters - killing 100.
The XTS version is oil based for external applications, there is a I/T type for internal spraying.

You want the oil-based for your yard because Bifen takes about 24 hours to be fully effective.
The upfront cost of just the manufacturing of a Biological Drug is enormous, let alone adding in the R&D costs it took to get it there.

On the R&D side, only 10-15% of all drugs in pipelines make it thru to commercial approval. This is how they recoup the cost of all the failed drugs that didn't make it to market.

I don't say this depending the practice, just pointing out the system.
We're going to pay one way or the other (insurance premiums, cogs, taxes, etc.), but I guarantee that whatever the negotiated price for these drugs is, it's cheaper than what we would pay with the heath results of obesity.

It has, but the gun-play and maps (the two aspects that make a game BF) just aren't there.

He had an opportunity to still come after decommitting from UK, and chose ASU.

I highly doubt we are in contention.
See we are still only hiring the best people for the job.
