Recovering newspaper journalist. I now deliver packages. STL born/raised. RTs & links not endorsements.

My last day in journalism was Wednesday. I’m headed back home to STL, finally, this weekend as I embark on a new career path. There’s a lot of good going on in the Quad-Cities. Putting down the notepad after more than 7 years in newspapers.

This is a block in a few months at Allen Fieldhouse. https://t.co/SbdEXgbM3B

This is obviously a joke, but I honestly think these video games have warped fans' view of the sport and their team. If you can win 7 straight national titles with South Alabama on NCAA 2013, why can't it happen in real life?

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

NCAA continues to address the important stuff.

A few years ago I attended an early morning summer workout at which the team used a balled up towel because they weren’t allowed to use a football. So many stupid rules while they can’t even enforce the major ones.

JT Daniels to West Virginia. We'll see where #Mizzou goes at QB now

[Sam Stejskal @samstejskal]

Sources: St. Louis City SC has hired Bradley Carnell as their first head coach.

A South African who had a long playing career in Germany, Carnell had been an assistant with the New York Red Bulls since 2017. Served as NY’s interim head coach in 2020. STL announcing this morning.

A dozen QBs were drafted in 2009 when Daniel went undrafted. Only one is still in the league: Matthew Stafford

Waino was on fire last night

Tyler Badie 294 all-purpose yards 4th most at Mizzou last 50 years (Maclin 2007 Kans St 360, D.West 1998 Kans 333, Wallace 1985 Cal 299)

Asked about Connor Bazelak, Eli Drinkwitz says he doesn't know exactly the injury. Says he thinks it's a soft tissue injury. Says the decision to turn to Tyler Macon was "situational."

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

Tyler Macon runs in for a score. It’s 37-28. #Mizzou should survive. And it’s gonna be an interesting week on the quarterback discussion front.

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

Tyler Badie has 39 touches for 294 yards and probably isn’t done yet.

[Dave Matter @Dave_Matter]

NCAA should pass a rule if your defense is ranked in the 100s you can't flex and pose after a random second-down tackle.

[Dave Matter @Dave_Matter]

Holy smokes

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

It’s 24-21. #Mizzou is in a dogfight with a Vanderbilt team playing its backup quarterback and third string running back.

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

And just like that, #Mizzou is going to take the lead into the locker room. 45- yard Hail Mary from Bazelak to Keke Chism and what in the world was the Vanderbilt defense doing?

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

I love sports because you never know when you’re going to see something you’ve never seen before. We just legitimately saw a false start called because “every player on the offense was not set.”

Can’t make this up.

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

Nah, you don’t get to blame this one on talent. Missouri is lacking in talent, yes. They’re playing the worst team in the SEC without the starting QB or top two running backs. Lose this one and it goes WAY beyond talent

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

#Mizzou trails Vandy 14-10. The Commodores have 177 yards rushing with 8:42 left in the second quarter. If you’re not hitting the panic button yet, you should probably at least have it within reach.

[Katie Woo @katiejwoo]

If you’re gonna come for Adam Wainwright, don’t miss

[PowerMizzou @PowerMizzoucom]

Speechless. This is beyond comprehension. Fire all your takes. None are out of bounds right now.
