History
The Sikeston Bulls joined the KIT League in 2004 in Sikeston, Missouri, which had been the previous home of the ill-fated "Bootheel Bombers", not to be confused with the Dexter, Missouri boxing club of the same name. The Bootheel Bombers played for one season in Sikeston, but then disappeared. The new team, the Sikeston Bulls, participated in the regular season play of the KIT League since the team's inception.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“... the history of the race, from infancy through its stages of barbarism, heathenism, civilization, and Christianity, is a process of suffering, as the lower principles of humanity are gradually subjected to the higher.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“America is, therefore the land of the future, where, in the ages that lie before us, the burden of the World’s history shall reveal itself. It is a land of desire for all those who are weary of the historical lumber-room of Old Europe.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
