re: Is Texas in the same situation as Indiana?
Posted by NEMizzou on 11/19/24 at 1:46 pm to bamabonners
Texas has a weak schedule for an SEC team this year, but it's all relative. Even with that schedule they would be 1-1 against playoff caliber teams, and Indiana would be 0-1. Vanderbilt and likely Arkansas are better than anyone Indiana has played.

It wasn't put out to confuse anyone (well at least not anyone other than folks on the rant); it was a random weirdo affiliated with no one who was having a slow day. Mizzou's main beat writer said it wasn't even worth checking into, and he thinks Cook has a decent chance to play anyway.
If SC makes it to the 4th string QB I think they're more likely just to direct snap the ball to Luther, which honestly would at least be more entertaining than throwing a true freshman to the wolves who is not close to being ready to start in this league (and definitely not against this front four).

re: Wait is Mizzou Oklahoma University rivalry actually a thing?

"Rivalry" isn't the right word for the football series...but Mizzou fans generally despise OU, mostly because Mizzou has gotten their teeth kicked in the majority of the series. Same deal with Nebraska...I don't think Mizzou fans thought of Nebraska as a rival, more just we hated them because they were really good and Mizzou...was not. The idea that Mizzou has a decent chance to win this type of game now gives it a lot more juice on the MU side; plus Mizzou has lately become a thorn in OU's side on the recruiting/transfer side.
Basketball had a legit rivalry, particularly during the 80s and 90s when both programs had all-timer coaches.

South Carolina isn't even the best Carolina.
If we were still in the Big 12 he would have a few regionals under his belt, but the SEC is such a meat grinder that you can be pretty good and still have an awful conference record. Mizzou invests by far the lowest amount of any school on baseball and honestly I don't think Mizzou has really been the worst program on average since he got here so he is really an overachiever relative to the investment. If they don't make a regional this year he probably gets fired but I don't know that he should unless Mizzou plans on investing in baseball, which seems insane with the climate we deal with and the conference we're in.

re: SEC expansion question for Mizzou fans
Posted by NEMizzou on 1/31/23 at 2:28 pm to BranchDawg
If we're in 4-team pods where all four teams play the other 3 every year, I think you'd see OU, UT, Arky and Mizzou together.
If we're allowed 3 permanent rivals, but we're not locked into 4-team pods and MU plays 3 teams (say including Arky) but Arky can play 2 completely different schools, then I'd say Mizzou would prefer to play OU, Arky and Kentucky.
I think Mizzou is locked into Arky (whether each side likes it or not) and the Big 8 fit with OU is almost a certainty. I like playing Carolina and I like playing Kentucky, but Kentucky is geographically more relevant and they seem like great games no matter what.

Is there an explanation OTHER than Mizzou being a really effed up institution of higher wokism?
The explanation is The Antlers have done that for years...historically it has been one game per year and it was always kansas; I was honestly a little disappointed when they didn't dress up for the game this year.
They would always walk around from section to section pre-game and lead that section in all sorts of obscene chants that you definitely couldn't do today. Simpler times...

meh. Don't get me wrong, it is a big loss. But Mizzou gained more than it lost last year with the portal; Wingo was a big loss but pickups to the rest of the defense ended in a net positive...just have to do that each year.

re: Best way you’ve found to play NES games?
Posted by NEMizzou on 11/28/22 at 4:56 pm to Dale Murphy
Outside of an original console on an old CRT, I think an FPGA system is your best bet. If you're just interested in NES games you can get a RetroUSB for $200 here, and it's as perfect as it's going to get. It has ports for original controllers and HDMI out. Pair it with an Everdrive and you'll have every NES game ever produced, with flawless accuracy. Without using a CRT there will still be some lag but this is a lot better than a Pi-based system.
If you're wanting to do more systems than the NES and are OK with a huge learning curve, look up the Mister FPGA. That's what I have and it's kind of amazing what it can do. But it's not anything close to plug and play.

How is he demanding? Isn't this how capitalism is supposed to work; King isn't saying Twitter can't charge $20, just that he has no interest in the platform if they do. I get that $20 is less than a pittance to either of these guys, but if folks drop their checkmarks and I can't tell who is real then Twitter will lose me as a user (which is no big loss, but still).

+1. Watching a big game in person is great in that the strangers that are there are all in and it's like a big party when things are going well...but if I'm watching a big game on TV I can watch with my brother but I really don't even like watching with my 9 and 12 year old because, well, stuff falls out of our mouths I don't want the kids to hear and most of my friends' analysis is about as nuanced as the 9 year old's (who has an excuse because he's 9).
Also, I'm a Mizzou fan, so usually big games don't go well and I don't like to be pissed off in front of many people.

Mizzou's defense will hold up OK (I'm talking relative terms here); it's a pretty solid unit. I'd say 35-6 or 42-3 is what I'd guess, but it won't feel that close. Mizzou gave up 40 to KState but that was after throwing four interceptions in a row on the wrong side of the field.

I have to agree with Rick.
One of the smartest financial decisions we have made was buying a used, 2014 Sienna 2 years ago. Neither of us were excited about the purchase, but we have loved it. We purchased with 90k miles already on it, the kids and all of their friends love it and it has been incredibly comfortable for vacations.
I had to get past the minivan stigma when we bought our Sienna and looking back I was an idiot (but at least a young idiot). We have a 2013 with 195k that we bought with 90k four years ago and I wouldn't trade the thing for the world; it's been a super reliable people hauler and versus a sequoia or a truck gets great mileage and has wayyyy more utility 90% of the time. With the obscene prices both of those vehicles bring right now I'd be minivan all the way and couldn't recommend a Sienna more highly.
re: Does Missouri care enough to move on from Drinkwitz this year?
Posted by NEMizzou on 9/14/22 at 12:36 pm to Quicksilver
If Mizzou fires their coach in Yr 3 then they're screwed. They might be screwed anyway, but if they're firing coaches 3 years in at Mizzou then they definitely are. The only way Mizzou is going to succeed is if they keep stockpiling depth (at a Mizzou rate anyway) and have some continuity. AKA, the Pinkel/Stoops model. They can't do it any other way at Mizzou. If you switch coaches you will lose anyone worth a damn and you're back to square 1 for another 3 yrs minimum.
I think if Horn ends up a bust (or leaves after this year) Drink is toast (but still isn't getting canned this year)...if Horn shows promise and he can patch some holes on the OL in the portal then they'll start to move in the right direction.

re: 2 questions about student loan forgiveness

Loan forgiveness is typically taxable but we shall see. Just Google “Loan Forgiveness IRS”.
Although this is true generally, I had my loans forgiven under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program last year; the IRS put out specific guidance for this program that said it would not be considered a taxable event (and I received forgiveness of a lot bigger balance than $10k so thank God). I can't imagine they would handle this any differently, since they're both federal student loan forgiveness programs.
That being said, never underestimate the government's ability to screw something up.
