Opening Saturday of College Football

As you probably know, yesterday was the first Saturday of the College football season. I believe there were 53 division 1 games played yesterday, and out of those 53 only 18 were shown here on my television. Unfortunately for me, because of the fact that usually about 5 games were playing at the same time, [...]

Mizzou-Illinois from the Jones Dome

Like most Mizzou fans, I couldn’t wait to put yesterday’s game in the rear view mirror.  It was nothing more than a trap game for us.  As we saw last year, a victory means very little, but a loss could cost us a shot at a National Title.
First off, I’d like to point out that [...]

South Carolina beats North Carolina State

First of all, as Bryan did earlier, I would like to wish everyone a happy opening day to the college football season. I would also like to thank him for excusing me from the need from writing any posts until my wrist heals, but the excitement of watching the first night of college football is [...]

Happy College Football Season!

I’m currently watching the riveting South Carolina-North Carolina St. primetime Thursday night football game.  At this point, I would watch Western Wyoming A&M play North Oklahoma Community College.  I’m sure most of you feel the same way.
I just got my tickets to the (6) Mizzou vs. (20) Illinois game for this Saturday.  I’ll take plenty [...]

Instant Replay

First things first, Weller had successful surgery on his wrist this afternoon. He should be back in action soon, so don’t fret, facebook discussion boarders. Apparently he did ask the nurse if they put a cell phone inside of him like in the Dark Knight, for what it’s worth.
Now, onto the topic of [...]

The Miracle on Melted Ice

That’s what I’ve decided to call the men’s semifinal water polo match between the United States and Serbia, a game in which the U.S. doubled up Serbia, winning ten to five. The remarkable part about this is that the United States team came into the Olympics being ranked only ninth in the world and weren’t [...]

Mizzou at the Olympics

As I alluded to a couple days ago, Mizzou has two athletes competing in the Beijing Olympics: Christian Cantwell and Ben Askren.
A few days ago, Cantwell took the silver medal in the shot put, with a throw of 21.09 meters. After a shocking failure to qualify for the games in Athens four years [...]

Bandwagons

I know Bryan said that I would be writing a post about the Olympics today, but he must not have gotten my memo. Either way, I only have a few opinions about the Olympics right now anyhow and they can all be summed up rather quickly. Michael Phelps is amazing, China has rigged the games [...]

We lost a backup Guard, the season is over.

This will be a homer post and I realize that. Luckily, it’s my blog, so I can do what I want with it. It wouldn’t be the first time anyway. I’m going to leave the Olympics to Weller, he’s got something on the Michaels of the Olympics in store for tomorrow, but for [...]

The Long Awaited Return Post

Well, it’s been about a month since my last post and a couple weeks since there was any activity on this site. Rest assured, we’re back now. The bad news is that Weller may need wrist surgery, so it may be all up to me for a while (that means a severe cut [...]
