The women’s basketball team’s twitter handle is @MizzouWBB.

The display name is Mizzou Basketball, but anyone can have any display name they want. The men’s team goes by Mizzou Hoops because it chose to, not because the women’s team somehow got the name first.

          I think the reason they made the display name "Mizzou Hoops" - zounami MU - 10/8 07:52:59
               You could have the username be MizzouHoops and have the - tgr MU - 10/8 07:55:43
                    yes, that's precisely what I said (nm) - zounami MU - 10/8 07:59:43
                         Sorry. I usually ignore your posts so I didn't read the - tgr MU - 10/8 08:02:59
                              no worries (nm) - zounami MU - 10/8 08:09:16
                              lol(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 08:03:25
     Only on Tigerboard - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 07:19:31
          He's pointing out, correctly, that the vast majority of - zounami MU - 10/8 07:31:32
               It's a dumb premise/argument; it's irrelevant. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 07:52:32
                    It's pretty damn relevant, unless you want to ignore sex(nm) - AWOLTiger KC - 10/8 09:03:33
                         lol. wat(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 09:16:42
                              How do you differentiate between mens and womens - AWOLTiger KC - 10/8 09:23:24
                                   Oh boy. You realize this discussion is about twitter right? - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 10:01:15
                    Then why does virtually every other school follow the - zounami MU - 10/8 07:54:35
                         Because people are dumb. They do irrelevant sh*t and complai - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 08:01:05
                              Do you think 'tgr' is dumb?... - zounami MU - 10/8 08:16:57
                                   Yes(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 08:18:24
                                        well, he does admittedly have reading speed and/or - zounami MU - 10/8 08:23:46
                                             I don't remember, I don't think so. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 09:02:28
     While I agree with the premise of your argument... - zounami MU - 10/8 01:38:13
     WTF are you talking about? - zodiac6 JC - 10/7 23:16:35
          technicalities aside, he's right that the display-name... - zounami MU - 10/8 01:51:32
               Or—and this might be a crazy thought— - zodiac6 JC - 10/8 05:05:30
                    Why do you think every other school puts "W" or "Women's" - zounami MU - 10/8 05:31:28
                         It's hyperbolike to say "every other school." - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 10/8 06:45:00
                              Not really. 12 out of 14 SEC schools put "Women's" or "W" - zounami MU - 10/8 07:09:23
                                   I didn't "cherry-pick" UGA. I live in Atlanta, so I searched - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 10/8 07:35:07
                                        and that sample size of 1 led you to the wrong conclusion... - zounami MU - 10/8 07:42:16
                                   "Not really" [proceeds to explain exactly why it is hyperbol - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 07:20:13
                                        If something costs $99.99 and you say it costs $100... - zounami MU - 10/8 07:25:19
                                             12/14 schools in the SEC don't do it and you claimed - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 07:51:32
                                                  No, 12 out of 14 SEC schools *do* follow the convention... - zounami MU - 10/8 07:56:20
                                                       Mr. Sample Size doesn't understand sample size. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 07:58:25
                                                            You're confusing sample size with population size... - zounami MU - 10/8 08:03:27
                                                                 No we're talking about the "every school" claim and whether - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 08:10:09
                                                                      If something costs $99.99 and you say it costs $100... - zounami MU - 10/8 08:15:36
                                                                           Perhaps you should look up the definition. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 08:18:14
                                                                                definition of hyperbole, according to Merriam-Webster... - zounami MU - 10/8 08:21:03
                                                                                     Yes, everyone would agree it's hyperbole. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 09:01:20
                                                                                          that's not hyperbole either.... - zounami MU - 10/8 09:16:58
                                                                                               No, it was a topical hyperbolic joke. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 10:03:48
                                                                                                    no reasonable person would think the statement was - zounami MU - 10/8 10:07:47
                                                                                                         I would think every intelligent person would view every - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/8 10:16:40
                                             I don't have any statistics to back this up, but I think - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 10/8 07:36:28
                                                  There are situations where the name Mizzou Basketball - alwaysright MU - 10/8 07:59:17
                                                       correct... - zounami MU - 10/8 08:06:56
                                                  Once again you fail to understand the concept of sample size - zounami MU - 10/8 07:44:51
                                                       Not sure why you have to be so abrasive when you argue - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 10/8 08:37:09
                                                            I'm actually quite good at keeping things civil... - zounami MU - 10/8 08:43:43
                                                                 Be honest with yourself. You know what you're doing, - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 10/8 09:07:00
                                                                      +1 for the snarky line at the end... - zounami MU - 10/8 09:25:32
                                                                           Thanks. Trying to match your wit.(nm) - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 10/8 09:28:23
