"Calling the Bully's Bluff" from Missouri's Rivals site

Great opinion piece ripping UT and the power structure in the Big 12.

"Look up the word "bully" and here are the definitions you get:

--browbeat: discourage or frighten with threats or a domineering manner; intimidate

--strong-arm: be bossy towards

--a cruel and brutal fellow

If you're involved with the Big XII Conference, the word bully needs just one word to give you an accurate definition: Texas. Or Longhorn. Either one will work.

As the world of conference realignment turns, one thing is becoming crystal clear: The Texas Longhorns are big bullies. And the bully doesn't like it when someone questions his power."

It gets better. And it's actually pretty damn fair. Facts are facts.

What I don't understand is why UT considers the other TX schools as little brothers, rather than little pissants clutching at their ankles. The TX loyalty thing is admirable, but its probably holding back UT from conquering bigger frontiers.
