Your Tigers looked like butt against the Illini.
You guys have a defensive coordinator, right?
Evey Hammond: Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici. V: By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.
Lol we left our secondary coach at home I think
D-Line and LB’s were fine. Offense looked bad at times, but great at other times.
We dropped 52 points on a ranked team, Ill take it.
kansas plays South Florida this week right?
Your 2008 Missouri Tigers! #6 1-0 (0-0). Next up Saturday home vs. SEMO. We might drop 100 points on them.
Nope, that's next week.
Another school that I can’t name in a place I don’t know – Louisana Tech – before USF. Reesing looked perfect, and Briscoe caught 3 TDs, as a sophomore he’s shaping up.
And my ala mater Wisconsin beat up the Zips (!), and PJ Hill put down 212 yards and 2 TDs. Good week so far. And I’m glad to see Beanie Wells hurt for OSU. I’m a jerk.
Evey Hammond: Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici. V: By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Michigan is giong to be very, very bad for 2-3 years. Enjoy it.
And Michigan hasn’t enjoyed nearly as much success as OSU as of lately. And as a Badger fan, you should HATE Michigan for stealing the Rose Bowl from us a few years ago.

KU isn't going to have a team like they did last year, that was magical.
But they won’t be a “easy W” anymore in the Big 12, not with Mangino at the helm. And in the buffet line.
Evey Hammond: Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici. V: By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Backe isn't happy about being taken out of the game
Your 2008 Missouri Tigers! #6 1-0 (0-0). Next up Saturday home vs. SEMO. We might drop 100 points on them.

If you're going to do the Emmitt Smith commercial...
…you have to keep the “stache is trash” line. C’mon people.
Woe. Z is out.

Is this an injury change?

We must lead the league
In not getting runners in from 3rd w/ less than two outs.

I think we can see where this is headed
The GIDP show, wasted scoring chances…its the 2007 NLDS…or the last 5 games
if you're going to climb on the ledge
just jump off.

I don't mind if you want to jump off the ledge...
…but we don’t need a show first and if you can wait until the pavement is free of pedestrians that would probably be very humanitarian of you.
Well said.

are you this negative in the rest of your life about things?
or do you save it just for us.

This Z thing is really putting a damper on this happy season
Just put him on the DL so he can rest up for the playoffs. Don’t even tease us

I'll give it a whirl

Good Lawd
I hate pence and his double two feet from a HR.

Welcome to last month
News Flash… Howry is very hittable!
"This is an environment of welcoming, and you should just get the hell outta here." --Michael Scott
Howry sure is fooling people
They should be BOOING Hendry and Pinella for keeping this loser in the major leagues. See everyone tomorrow. Another loss tonight. At least they had runners on base this game – what an improvement!!!
Wow
wondering if he/she is that negative about everything in their life. Imagine being his kid and coming home w/ an A- on your report card

What is classic is they call up like 12 new pitchers
and he still uses HOWRY in a tie game?!!!
embarrassing
every pitch is the same speed right down the middle. Even Brenly is ripping Howry
Bob's giving Howry what for....
Good for him; God Howry SUCKS!!!!!!!!
the one time they are giving howry an out
and now he can’t find the middle of the plate???? Hah
Relax people. The Astros aren't bad. But we are better.
If they were in the NL West, they’d be in first, and playing much, much crappier teams.
Evey Hammond: Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici. V: By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.
Damn it LOU...
Don’t just stand there; go give him the hook!!!!
get rid of howry
and bring in some new pitchers that actually know how to pitch in a tight situation.
Does anyone think now's the time to start riding
Marmol/Shark/Cotts/Wood till and through the playoffs?
Lou pitched Marmol enough the beginning of the season to know he can handle the workload.
It doesn't get any worse than this:
solo HRs, RISPLOBs, GDIPs, crappy pitching, etc., etc., etc.
