Moo has always been the willing waiting whore for the Big 10 . . . they've been face down ass up for the Big 10 for 30 years.

And that's why it was stupid for Beebe to go into these meetings talking about having a goal of solidarity.

Missouri will sit outside of Delany's office with a freaking boombox over their head like John Cusack in "Say Anything".

Yep . . . Beebe should have just walked around the table with a baseball bat talking about teamwork, but he's a pussy.

Beebe is a rough ridin' girl. he has no balls and if he did all this Texas and SouTards to the Pac would be squashed

goEMAW should've sent a delegate to the meetings to make the Frank/Colon-vagina gesture* to Beebe.

This could also be posted in the "things I do consistently that only other EMAWs understand" thread.

let me tell you something. i was heading to LC's BBQ to grab some burnt ends and fries for dinner on Wednesday night and stared at the Intercontinental as I sat at the stop light outside of the hotel. the news reporters were all outside and i thought of the clowns inside.  true story.

[pissclams]

also- thought about going down to Capital on Thursday night for dinner.  i'm sure those guys went there (know for a fact that Deloss/UT loves the place).  didn't go.

FYI, the Big 8 did not expand to the Big 12.  The Big 8 ended and the Big 12 formed anew with the former Big 8 schools and 4 from the former SWC.  There could not be any "unfair" changing of rules since the rules became defunct.

[pissclams]

Actually Tejas did start this by unfairly changing the rules of the big 8 and by not sharing revenue equally. The Big 8 members took in the pathetic SWC where Tejas was a very minor player in CFB. The old Big 8 members were tired of being beaten yearly by OU & NU and thought that adding the SWC would be like a big FU to the league bullies.
The only dissenting vote for Big 12 expansion was Osborne. He stated that in years to come everything would start to have a Tejas flavor and that Tejas would hold all the cards. BINGO we have a winner. The Big 10 is the countries leader in research, every team in the Big 10 is AAU accredited. Sure, it's about football money but it's also about the grants and billions in research monies that  brings as well.
Nu is a big research university and the prestige (academically) associated with the Big 10 would be great. Only the SEC is lower than the Big 12 academically. Nu would do just fine football wise in the Big 10. Posters here are right by saying that the path to championships would be easier in the Big 12.....But who want's the easy road

Uhhhh....Nebraska was and is a part of the voting block that is AGAINST equal revenue sharing with Oklahoma, Texas, and A&M.

I think it's hilarious that Nebraska fans have started this asinine talking point that they're for revenue sharing and Texas is a villain.  Nebraska is worse because they're acting like they were for revenue sharing since the beginning, and that's absolutely untrue.

It takes nine votes to change policy in this conference.  Do you know why it's nine?  Because there's a four team voting block consisting of NU, UT, A&M, and OU.  If they don't want it, it doesn't happen.  And they didn't want revenue sharing.

Nebraska still doesn't want it.  If they did, things would change.  Now, things better not change because UT would get mad and we all are their bitch but I'm just saying.

'clams, it would've taken an additional delegate besides you becasue you'd have had your hands full ICEing everyone and been in no position to give the sign of the vagina to Beebe.

[nicname]

Tardville pretty butt hurt about potentially being tied to K-State.

Def. the most entertaining part about phog sports talk right now.  They simply cannot come to grips with the fact that KU isn't that attractive an option for conferences looking to expand. 

[Cire]

crap, guys.

this is better IMO

If I hear any one of them refer to themselves as a "basketball blueblood" again, I am going to just flip the shazbot! out.

After all the crap howls, this is the aftermath.

I love how there are so many crazy, unpredictable factors coming into play.  WTF is sticking up for Baylor?

It's brillant really. Texas basically got their Senators from Austin to to say "all in or no deal" to the Pac-10. They did this, not because they won't to move as a group, but because they know that no one wants Baylor. If it is being done by politicans, look for the backhanded politics in play.

[The42Yardstick]

I'm not sure if the legislators sticking up for Baylor are blowing smoke or not. BU doesn't have the "big-name" clout in the legislature that A&M, UT, or even Tech does. Maybe they have numbers? I'm gonna have to start making some calls...

They can deny it all they want, but they aren't going anywhere without us.

This fantasy is squarely contradicted here.  http://www.kansascity.com/2010/06/05/1995770/big-12-problems-trace-to-leagues.html

Yes, NU, that FINE, FINE academic institution focused on athlete-scholars, blah blah blah.  We've heard it all before, but you and I both know that NU would put players on the field with an IQ of 70 if it helped them win games.
