Everything posted by SLU let the dogs out?!

  1. That’s awesome. Looks like they shot this from the rooftop (Clubhouse) of the Arcade Building. After closer inspection those views appear to be from further west and from closer to Market. Wonder if that’s SLU law school?
  2. According to this article Oklahoma State has also signed on to play in the Lincoln tournament which will apparently grow to 16 teams. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.btpowerhouse.com/platform/amp/2020/10/9/21453867/nebraska-basketball-big-ten-confirm-first-seven-teams-in-lincoln-tournament
  3. Looks like it. This sucks. MTE at Chaifetz? Time to hit the panic button!
  4. Didn’t Frank the tank also drop the Mike Lewis II news as well?
  5. Wow yeah those tickets aren’t easy to get. I hope your wife was both impressed and turned on Liverpool and Man City would’ve been too easy to pick, I've never liked ManU, and I hate Arsenal for obvious reasons Leicester City received consideration but at the end of the day picking Chelsea was an easy choice because of Pulisic and the rest of the squad. I love the mix of young guns (Pulisic, Mount, Abraham) and salty vets (Wilian, Alonso, and Giroud). I lied. I did go into reasoning.
  6. Are you a Man City fan or Chelsea fan? I finally got back into the Premier League this season after a cool decade of not watching. I made the decision to watch as many teams as possible this year and then pick a team to follow. Would’ve been Fulham (saw McBride and Bocanegra play at Craven Cottage back in 2004) but it appears they were relegated a few yeas back. I won’t get into reasoning but after careful consideration I think I’m going with Chelsea.
  7. Sorry, I should’ve mentioned in my post that I do not get FS2, which is why I’m really hoping FSMW Plus is 671-1 and they just didn’t update it on DirecTV. Had to go to The Post for the Seton Hall game.
  8. It said on Tweeter that this game was also on FSMW Plus in STL. Is that the alternative channel to FSMW (e.g. 671-1 for those with DirecTV?) I was planning on taking my 4.5 year old to a dirty bar to watch while the wife stays home with the 2 week old but obviously I’d rather watch at home. I went to 671-1 and it says “upcoming game FGCU vs Florida” which obviously isn’t our game so still not sure if it’s on but I guess that’s a good sign at least.
  9. I sat right behind Seattle’s bench as well. That Wisconsin transfer was their best player by far and his dad made sure everyone knew. By the way, they definitely have all-inclusive tickets because I didn’t get up once during the game and took down 8 Selects. How those seats aren’t filled is beyond me.
  10. The Post has excellent food. Heck, they even have bar food for the health conscious (baked buffalo wings). The main reason I like The Post is their arsenal of tvs AND.....they have the sound for the main game, which one would assume to be the SLU game.
  11. Actually, if you're going by US News ranking then SLU most definitely has an academic advantage over Creighton. I believe the big difference between national and regional is what they offer. Regional rankings are schools that focus on undergraduate and offer few doctoral programs. Now, you can argue these rankings all you want but looking at Creighton's US News profile, I'd say SLU and Creighton are quite distinct.
  12. STLFan, You are correct in that the thread turned very complimentary of SLU. I was referring to the 5 or 6 topics with Slu's name in them I've seen at powermizzou the past month or so. Those usually started and ended with SLU bashing with a few positive comments sprinkled in. Additionally, most of those complimentary posts in the most recent thread occurred after I had posted on here. It started out like the typical SLU bashing thread but I think people are now realizing that SLU is a team to give proper recognition. In the end, I know I shouldn't care what people think but I guess I had to do some venting. From here on out, we'll let SLU's play do the talking! Charlie Tuna is still alive?!?!?! I remember going to my car around 1am in the CWE 7 or 8 years ago. He was walking around aimlessly in the Tom's Bar and Grill parking lot. He looked the opposite of sober.
  13. Internet tough guy!!! I read their posts because I've received degrees from the two schools and read powermizzou regularly. The level of groundless cockiness over there has started to get out of control however. Funny thing is, you just wasted your time responding to a post telling me not to waste my time responding. This is indeed America which affords you the option of skipping over this topic. In the mean time, I am going to attempt to procure a life as you have tritely suggested...
  14. Someone just posted the article Bernie wrote comparing the two. I love when the topic of SLU comes up on Powermizzou. 75% of the comments call SLU "irrelevant" which is odd when the threads reach dozens of responses. One of four posters praises Slu for their season, but most of them completely bash this team. My favorite is how they constantly use themselves as a measuring stick, or comment on all of their success. Last time I checked, Mizzou and SLU have the same amount of Final Fours. In fact, SLU has a 1948 NIT Championship, which was considered equally impressive as the NCAA tourney back then. Mizzou fans constantly argue the history of the Tigers, that they have been to considerably more tournaments. No one is arguing that. They win there. They win the mediocre prize: most times disappointing your fan base by exiting the tourney without accomplishing anything. Delusional would sum their fanbase up perfectly. Void of any humility and overflowing with delusions of grandeur. I can't imagine a Michigan fan or a Florida fan, etc reading their posts.
