Mizzou to the Big Ten?

Over at Tigerboard.com there's a rather bizarre pair of posts that showed up this weekend, both promoting separate websites in favor of Mizzou switching to the Big 10.

http://www.mizzou-bigten.com/ is a single page

http://big10mizzou.blogspot.com/ is in a blog format, with more extensive arguments and the opportunity for readers to make comments


Both use the exact same banner masthead that pretty much rules out any expectation of lack of bias: Missouri + Big Ten Conference = Natural Fit

A natural fit unless, of course, you're a Baseball fan. The Big Ten is a 2nd-tier baseball conference at best. I'd rather be in the Missouri Valley than the Big 10, when it comes to baseball. But I'd really rather be in one of the top 2 or 3 baseball conferences in the NCAA: The Big 12.

I'm not too worried, though. I don't think there's much chance at all of this happening. No matter how many copy-cat websites people put on the interwebs.
