Mizzou Links, 11-14-11

Always tough to see an injury like that period (ahem Josey). To have an injury like that at the end of your senior year is not a good story. Best of luck, Dizzy!

No offense to HCGP but is that pic from hi driver’s license? That pic screams “FOREHEAD, must…have…visor!”

Is that, at Mizzou, I can spend $32 to sit on a rock and watch the game, whereas at a Georgia I may be allowed to sit in the parking lot.

came before the game even started. the girl that was carrying the “s” flag in “texas” fell down as she was running down the texas sideline. critical error on her part, one from which the horns never recovered.

How much I love kicking Texas in the teeth the last time we meet them in the Big 12. It’s almost worth being 5-5, just so it stings a little more for them.

Made me proud that we didn’t. We beat Texas. Ho hum. On to the next one.

royals fans? rangers fans? people who think baseball has no place at a cfb game?

What’s this “Next Iron Chef”?

I have to go with Cheivous but that is based on who I have seen play which only goes back to Sundvold and Stipo. Also how does Stip not go into the 80’s/90’s division?

Former Penn State coach Joe Paterno’s name has been removed from the Big Ten’s football championship trophy, league commissioner Jim Delany said Monday.

The league announced in light of the series of events that have recently unfolded at Penn State, including grand jury indictments, an ongoing grand jury investigation, a U.S. Department of Education investigation, the Board of Trustees’ dismissal of Paterno and the Board of Trustees’ appointment of a Special Investigation Committee, it would remove Paterno’s name from the championship trophy.

The trophy will be awarded at the Big Ten’s inaugural football championship game Dec. 3 in Indianapolis.

"We believe that it would be inappropriate to keep Joe Paterno’s name on the trophy at this time," Delany said. "The trophy and its namesake are intended to be celebratory and aspirational, not controversial. We believe that it’s important to keep the focus on the players and the teams that will be competing in the inaugural championship game."

The trophy to be presented in Indianapolis next month will now be called the “Stagg Championship Trophy,” named after Amos Alonzo Stagg, who coached football at the University of Chicago, a founding member of the Big Ten, from 1892-1932. Stagg compiled a 199-94-22 record while the University of Chicago was a member of the Big Ten, including national championships in 1905 and 1913.

the contenders
burrell- tough, hates to lose, needs to let loose with her food
falkner- very skilled, she kills it w/ desserts
zakarian- fancy pants, good food but sometimes i want punch him in his stupid face

not quite good enough
alex- sooner or later she will have a nervous breakdown and start crying
chiarello- seems like an ass

just waiting for the axe
mcmillan- stupid boston accent, also annoying when he plays cheerleader
samuelson- he’ll do something dumb again, like lakewater stew

irvine- really disappointed he’s gone, one of my favorites
chuck- later frenchy
spike- meh

also, did anyone notice that flay/symon scored 59 out of 60 on the thanksgiving battle? i’ve never seen a score that high

I was sorry to see Josey go down like Whittaker. Terribly unfortunate for both kids.

For what it’s worth, while I don’t think Mizzou got Texas’ best shot — we were cooked once Fozzy went down — I thought the difference in the game was the really impressive play by Franklin. His legs add a lot of value to y’alls offensive approach, and he did a great job making throws amidst strong defensive pressure by Texas. He’s definitely a keeper.

Good luck in the SEC.

Top Chef wins every time, baby.

It’s the one show that my wife watches that I truly enjoy.

sentenced for 5 yrs.
