The next time Mizzou's on the 1-yard line, they'd better put Daniel up under center for the first time in his life and run a QB sneak.
We are obviously down on the Tigers, but they have an immediate chance to rehabilitate this thing Saturday against Texas.
The Big 12 has some amazing offenses. Defenses, not so much.
Oklahoma and Mizzou got exposed. (And Chase just lost the Heisman.)
We watched Juno yesterday. Nice movie. Every movie made should make you reflect on actual life a little. Not too many of them try to make you reflect at all.
Have we ever mentioned that, long ago, we used to be a big St. Louis Cardinals Football fan? For us, it was always the Royals in baseball and the Cardinals in football. The Cardiac Cards broke our heart when they moved to Arizona. But it's always nice to see the dark red jerseys on TV against an old NFC East opponent, especially when it's the Cowboys. And it's nice to see the Football Cardinals win.
P.S. Junior won an individual medley (fly, backstroke, breast stroke, free) this weekend against older competition from Missouri, Kansas and Arkansas. He's a closer, like a race horse that finishes strong. That makes these races very exciting. He also finished third in the backstroke (out of about 25) and fourth in the freestyle. Did we mention that the kids he's swimming against are older than he is?
P.P.S. If Junior keeps swimming all over the Midwest and beyond, we're going to have to buy a Winnebego. As it stands, we hang around for hours, waiting for the next event. If we had a Winnebego, we could be out in the parking lot drinking beer and watching football.

How old is your kid? My kid is swimming for CSP in St. Louis, but he is only five so he is still learning.
We spend a fortune on this stuff, but he loves it.
Congratulations.
My kid also likes soccer, but we are trying to break him of that habit.
My kid is 9. He started when he was about 5. He has to practice for several hours 4-5 times per week, but he doesn't complain. I do most of the complaining, about the time and cost. I think this will be his sport. Unlike me, he is tall and lean and strong with big flipper-feat. He projects well, as the baseball scouts would say. I really wanted him to be a left-handed pitcher, but you've got to go with what you've got.
P.S. He is at SPA in Springfield. So far, they haven't been in the pool with the St. Louis kids as far as I know. It's mostly KC, Joplin, Fayetteville. But there's a meet in Columbia next month.
Mine also has horrible eyes so he was never going to be a major league hitter.
Of course I have great eyes and I am never going to be a major league hitter.
