2012-13 Big XII includes West Virginia...not Missouri?
"Beginning with the 2012-13 season it is expected that the Big 12 Conference will be comprised of 10 Universities – Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas, Texas Tech and West Virginia. The Big 12’s footprint will encompass five states with over 36 million people. More than 4,100 student-athletes from across the United States and around the World compete annually in the 23 sports sponsored by the Conference."

so ... Arkansas seems to be the consensus thinking for our cross-division rival
but what are the chances it would be A&M? That wouldn’t be so bad … doesn’t disrupt any current scheduling for the SEC, and gets us into Arkansas every other year.
TAMU is more likely

I don't hate the guy, I mean we just lost arguably our best player for this season
and had a horrendous collapse the last 2 months of the season and we are STILL ranked for the pre-season. That is a testament to him and hist staff turning around the program. But I think as a whole, the fan base has some negative feelings on how he left, not so much why he left. At the end of the day, it is just a small thing for us fans to get riled up about and dislike the razorbacks.

If it's not A&M . . .

Look at Tennessee's scheduling
we’re a state without a lot of homegrown talent, so we recruit nationally and schedule around recruiting, all while playing in the SEC meat grinder. Take a look at some of the future schedules (or past, for that matter, not including this year and next) and you can see a kinda standard way of doing this. Obviously, we don’t focus on the state of Texas, but that’s a minor difference.

what worries me about scheduling games in texas
is there the number of schools in Texas that would jump at the opportunity to schedule larger, SEC schools is growing thin.
Obviously, Texas, Texas Tech and TCU don’t qualify – they’re already in the Big 12 and don’t want to share Texas recruits with the SEC, plus there’s no benefit to scheduling a tougher non-conference opponent.
Houston and SMU are rumored to be on their way to the Big East, meaning a) they’ll be in a BCS conference and won’t need to schedule stronger competition to make up playing in a non-AQ conference, b) won’t have as much incentive for the big payday that comes with playing a larger school, and c) will have incentive to help locking down the state’s borders so that recruits stay in the Big East.
Rice (to me, at least – no proof of this) doesn’t seem like an option given its relationship with Texas and appearing on the LHN.

Remember though
Pinkel and company have spent ten years building relationships with Texas high schools. Most coaching staffs don’t have that advantage simply because they aren’t in place for ten years. Those schools know what Mizzou is about. Despite the Keitzmanian logic that Missouri and A&M are going to be locked out, the Texas recruiting base is too big to be contained by just the Texas schools and the Big XII. West Virginia certainly isn’t going to take up the slack. If those relationships mean anything, I suspect Texas will remain a pipeline, albeit not the key pipeline it is today.

Seriously, what the hell is this?
Quidditch is played with two teams of seven players. As in the "Harry Potter" books, there is a Quaffle (a partly deflated volleyball) and three vertical scoring hoops on each end. Three Chasers "ride" their brooms around the field as they pass the ball one-handed in an attempt to score.
A Keeper defends the hoops, while two Beaters throw Bludgers (or dodgeballs) at the other team’s Chasers. If they’re hit, they must return to their hoops before continuing. There’s also a Seeker who tries to catch the Golden Snitch and end the game.
In the "Potter" books, the Snitch is a small winged ball that hovers and darts around the field, evading capture. Muggle Quidditch uses a human Snitch with a sock hanging out of the back of his or her shorts. The Snitch, who is on neither team, can leave the field, scale fences, hide, climb trees, tackle Seekers, steal brooms or even ride a bicycle to keep a Seeker from snatching the sock. If a Snitch leaves the field, however, he must return in 20 minutes.
Just one question.

So today I went to pick up lunch
at a famous local pie place, as I do about once a week. Every week the lady behind the counter tries to get me to add pie to my order and teases me mercilessly about eating lunch there without getting pie. Every week I tell her I’m more of a cake person, to her everlasting amusement.
I go through the regular exchange with her today. Cue thoughts about the pie vs cake round table debate. Cue subsequent thoughts about how meta it would be if a press conference was announced or the story otherwise broke while I, cake lover, was out getting lunch (but not pie) at a pie shop.
Thanks, RMN.

Ok, first of all....
Yes, we have an abundance of overpriced cupcakes (see: Georgetown Cupcake). I’m certainly in the minority among Washingtonians, but I don’t even think they are that good.
Second, I’m from Illinois then lived in Missouri for 5 years, so I had access to all the same Midwestern pies you guys did. And I still disapprove of pies.
Lastly, I don’t even like cake all that much. Its cheesecake all the way. And its not even close.
Cheesecake is a PIE. It has a crust and is mushy with a filling. YOU LOVE PIE!

does any pastry need THAT MUCH ICING? Its not even good icing. But people eat that shit up. Probably because it had its own terrible reality tv show for a while.
If you knock icing I’m going to have to show you how to play hockey. And I don’t mean the part with the little bit of black rubber
Not knocking icing in general
but you would understand what we’re saying if you ever saw a box of Georgetown Cupcakes.
Icing is its own food group. Licking the bowl of icing is better than having to put up with all that stupid cake stuff to get to it.

Further proof I'm not destined for business success
If somebody had come to me and proposed making dried out little cupcakes, then covering them with so much icing that they essentially no longer function as finger food, I’d have said “It’ll never work” and refused to fund the idea.
My greatest moment of failing to understand business
My wife dragged me to a chop’t to get a salad on the way home from work one day. I refused to buy anything on the grounds that I’m not going to pay somebody $10 to do something I’m perfectly capable of doing myself (in almost no time) at home. To illustrate how stupid the customers were for shopping there, I said I was going to open up a restaurant that only sold cereal, and I’d charge $5 to pour them a bowl of cereal and put milk on it.

This will be a huge adjustment for Mizzou fans if true. A large percentage of fans leave at halftime. I think fans could adjust to that, but honestly the concessions and concourses will have to be upgraded in a major way. Right now you can barely get to the bathroom or concession at halftime and if fans aren’t allowed to leave for their tailgates, it will get significantly worse.

This move by West Virginia does not come as a surprise. League officials, members of our conference and the candidate schools to whom we have been talking were aware of this possibility. We have taken West Virginia’s possible departure into account as we have moved forward with our own realignment plans. West Virginia is fully aware that the Big East Conference is committed to enforcing the 27-month notification period for members who choose to leave the conference. We are confident that in the coming weeks we will complete our own realignment program, adding a number of high-quality members to remain among the top conferences in both football and basketball

“The Big 12’s footprint will encompass five states with over 36 million people.”

If my math is correct
Total population Big XII (old) – 47,640,847

The Big XII has gained one population center (West Virginia 1,859,815)

Yeah this is why it'd be amazingly hard for the Big 12 to start a network
No OU cooperation, no UT, terrible population numbers. The Pac 12 has around 37 million people locked up in Cali alone.
And this is why it doesn't matter how many Big East schools you bring in
The Big XII is facing the same problem the SWC had, in that it’s becoming a regional Texas conference. Yes, bringing Notre Dame in and BYU would alleviate that problem somewhat, but now the conference has just replaced two elite schools that demand special treatment with two more schools that demand special treatment. Even if they get a killer media deal in six years, will it just turn out like the last media deal that looked good up front but hurt the conference down the line?
Interesting thought I just saw on twitter
With #Mizzou leaving, the #Big12 had to have a team for 2012. #WVU was the one team that said they’d do whatever it took to make it happen.

If tcu getting into b12 through knees/praying is double entendre
Then how many entendres does WVU offering to provide the astroglide equate to?
Yeah, I was commenting on how it's probably still Mizzous' fault
that WfV did anything to get into the Big 12. WV will not get a female analogy.

So if Mizzou hasn't technically left yet then for at least right now we're conference mates with WVU and need to start hating and abusing them, right?
Because I’ve been thinking about what the words mean (west is a direction, virginia is a reference to a type of person), so it seems to me that West Virginia should be defined as: “The means by which right handed people maintain their virtue”
I want to start referring to them as Virginia West.

Which is ridiculous. Because if someone actually said, “you can either have the cake or eat the cake, but not both” would anyone choose having it? On the one hand I get to eat a piece of cake. On the other, I get to carry around a cumbersome cake while other people eat it. Just a stupid phrase.

Wow
WVU announced today that with everyone whose left or wants to leave it is not a viable conference.
Basically they’re ignoring the 27 month thing because they don’t think it will exist.
The crazy thing is
Last year, Mizzou, Kansas, K-State and Iowa State were looking at the very real possibility that they might have to use the Big East as a landing spot as those four schools had been rejected by all of the other power conferences. I guess that proves that the Big East is a stable conference.

The man pulled it off. Haith landed eight solid players for 2012, a few who have a chance to be great, a few who look like they could be key role players, if they have the right attitude. It’s not a fab-five class, but it’s a good one.
Now, if he can coach ’em up…

because i’ve never got rooting for your conference, because, for me anyway, i hate the rest of the teams in our conference from least hated (iowa state) to most (kansas).
i know a serious georgia fan who rooted for a rival auburn team, which he thought to be cheating, to win last year because he couldn’t another conference winning.

Pie Crust
Recipe courtesy Alton Brown, 2003
Prep Time:15 minInactive Prep Time:1 hr 0 minCook Time:25 min
Level:
Intermediate
Serves:
1 (9-inch) piecrust
Ingredients
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) butter, chilled
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) lard, chilled
6 ounces (approximately 1 cup) all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling dough
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/4 cup ice water, in spritz bottle
Approximately 32 ounces of dried beans, for blind baking
Directions
Place butter and lard in freezer for 15 minutes. When ready to use, remove and cut both into small pieces.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour and salt by pulsing 3 to 4 times. Add butter and pulse 5 to 6 times until texture looks mealy. Add lard and pulse another 3 to 4 times. Remove lid of food processor and spritz surface of mixture thoroughly with water. Replace lid and pulse 5 times. Add more water and pulse again until mixture holds together when squeezed. Place mixture in large zip-top bag, squeeze together until it forms a ball, and then press into a rounded disk and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Place 2 metal pie pans in the refrigerator to chill.
Remove dough from refrigerator. Cut along 2 sides of the plastic bag, open bag to expose dough, and sprinkle both sides with flour. Cover again with plastic and roll out with a rolling pin to a 10 to 11-inch circle. Open plastic again and sprinkle top of dough with flour. Remove pie pans from refrigerator and set first pan on top of dough. Turn everything upside down and peel plastic from bottom of dough. Place second pan upside down on top of dough and flip again. Remove first pan from atop dough. Trim edges if necessary, leaving an edge for meringue to adhere to. Poke holes in dough and place in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Place a large piece of parchment paper on top of dough and fill with dry beans. Press beans into edges of dough and bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove parchment and beans and continue baking until golden in color, approximately 10 to 15 minutes longer. Remove from oven and place on cooling rack. Let cool completely before filling.

I may be the only one on here who thinks this but
I still want to stay in the Big 12. What I think the University and us fans were searching for was some semblance of stability. We were ready to sign on for the long haul just a few months ago before Texas A&M jumped ship and Oklahoma/State and others started looking elsewhere. We did the right thing by forcing changes by heavily looking at the SEC. This directly caused the Big 12 to make some concessions and add some teams for stability. I would argue that we have that now. I guess the water is now too poisoned to go back for a drink but I simply cant believe we wont be playing the old big 8 teams anymore. Im excited about the SEC but as a KC son, Mizzou sports in KC is now completely destroyed…thats half the fanbase by the way. Just my thoughts
by MIZfalconAviator on Oct 29, 2011 9:47 AM CDT reply actions
I think it's still only an illusion
Everyone (except me :) ) thought things were stable last year, but it wasn’t. Texas is still Texas, Oklahoma seems to be throwing its weight around to try and regain it’s stature after getting humiliated by the Pac-12, and adding Notre Dame will just throw another ego into the mix. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t, but I think it’s time we moved on.
