Or I'm up to early

CC now that the game is over I'm free to cheer for mizzou! Lol funny how that works huh. I do NOT like Arkansas

Yeah, I was pulling for the baseball Cardinals till the Dodgers knocked them out in the NLCS. Then I was pulling for KC.

Since we share a longer border with AR than you do and I've canoed and backpacked there a lot, I have a bit of a soft spot for them if Mizzou wasn't in contention. Not Friday though. MO and AR haven't faced each other in the regular season since 1964.
The north (Ozarks) and west (Ouchitas) of the state are beautiful. One of the country's most scenic highways is in the Arkansas Ozarks.

you use some funny words - who the heck would follow baseball?

Cricket has funnier words

 

[ChickenCanoe]

What words are funny? Ouchitas (mountain range in AR & OK), NLCS (National League Championship Series), KC (Kansas City), Ozarks (oldest mountain range in the US covering parts of MO, AR and OK)?

To answer the second point, people from most Latin American countries, the Japanese, Koreans, Taiwanese and anyone from the Rockies to the Atlantic that used to hear the baseball Cardinals at night on KMOX AM radio's 50,000 clear channel red hot watts from 1928-2005 and again from 2011-present. For much of the country there wasn't much to listen to on the radio on a summer night but that station.
Broadcasters for those games include people like Harry Carey, Bob Costas, Jack Buck, Joe Buck, Joe Garagiola, Mike Shannon, et. al..

Since you aren't from Mexico, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Nicaragua, Cuba, Columbia, Japan, etc. or from a lonely part of the US outback with nothing but an AM radio for entertainment, I understand your disdain and I forgive you.

It's also the best logo in baseball
