We're near the bottom of the SEC in total revenue. Our fans b*tch and moan about not winning anything, but most of them won't make the financial commitment needed to do so. They'd rather waste their money on professional sports teams that have absolutely NO loyalty to their fan base or the state of Missouri for that matter. When they're not doing that they spend countless hours on Tigerboard, PowerMizzou and social media letting the world know how much Mizzou sports suck.

Some of you need to take a hard look at your total number of posts. If you’re averaging more than 2-3 posts per day on this site, or any other for that matter, maybe you should consider getting a hobby or God forbid a part time job making a little extra money so that you can help pull Mizzou out of the SEC financial cellar.

Sorry if I offended any of you, but sometimes the truth hurts. And by the way, I’ve been a season ticket holder and TSF donor for a long time so don’t come at me. Unlike most of you, I put my money where my mouth is.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
