We hadn't gotten together for a few days. Just been a busy week for all my buddies and I. This morning was not somber at all. We are grown men and proud of our community. We are also pissed as can be at the University of Missouri for being taken in by a bunch of conniving little creeps. They were played like a drum during this whole mess. I told the guys we need to solicit Donald Trump to build a wall around the damn university to keep those pecker heads from being turned loose on the rest of society, I could literally go on and on and on and on. I won't. I cannot recall a time when I was so sick and tired of a subject. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. My friends concur.
Anyway, our Mizzou Tigers travel up I-70 this weekend to take on BYU. Talk about a coin flip game. I have seen opinions on this game from many different sources. I cannot help but chuckle. The truth is nobody knows how this thing will play out. Not even close. I have hit on 13 of the last 15 Tiger releases going both ways with them. I have no earthly idea. I have contacts well within, let's just put it that way. Hell, I am getting conflicting opinions from them. I would not touch this game within a country mile guys. I can see BYU hammering them. I can see the Tigers with an us against the world state of mind playing a good game. My feeling is the offense sucked before this all hit, how will this have anything to do with curing their ills. Suddenly the offensive lineman are going to start blocking better? Suddenly the wide outs are going to decide to actually run disciplined routes? Anyone betting this specific game is throwing a dart. Period.
On a more positive note there is some optimism coming from St Louis and the Rams fans. It is just so weird to have a team in our state that does seem to have some upside but the fans in general are keeping them at arms length. We all know Kroenke is dead set in his quest to move the club. He does not give a rats ass about the fans in St Louis. This dude is all about the $$$$. He is worth billions but he still keeps score with his competitor billionaire friends. It is like a monopoly game among the ultra wealthy. Trust me, those guys keep score.
There are even fans thinking the Chiefs will upset the Broncos this weekend. I haven't smoked any pot in awhile but might have to try out some of what they are smoking.
Anyway, it is a spectacular day here weather wise. I plan on having a great weekend. Nobody is going to screw that up. Hope it is the same for you guys.
