This thread reminds me why I thought it was funny when the KSU fan punched the KU fan right between the eyes at a bar outside the sprint center last year.

I can agree with that, and in fact have not problem with twocoach on most occasions. I apologize for the misunderstanding before twocoach. I kind of jumped into the thread and posted. I can see you drawing that parallel and not targeting the child now that I have read your responses. Regardless, I think it is important to think about where you are and who you are conversing with. Most of the time I think your posts are well thought-out and maybe a little biased toward your team, but honestly who isn't?--Completely edited this one from its original post. I agree that it is nice to have an outside perspective from time to time.
I am more than a little biased towards Kansas, I freely admit that. As you stated, we all see things through the lens of our own fandom. What I do admire and respect is that ISU has such great fans that are so supportive of their team. I interact with you guys in large part simply because you are around and available and out there taking an active part in discussions on the sport and the conference. It makes me nuts to see so many empty seats in the stands for the Texas and Oklahoma schools. Most teams have sell outs or near sell outs when Kansas comes to town, but it seems like Iowa State and Kansas State are still the only other programs that TRULY have a home court advantage because of their fans. I love that Kansas gets pushed to their limits in such environments. It's the best part of the sport in my opinion.

My grandfather was a KU grad, Class of 1933. The local vet kept his cattle on my grandfather's property and was a K-State grad. My grandfather trained his dogs to go down and "greet" Doc every morning by urinating on his truck tires while he got out of the truck to open the gate to go out to the pastures and tend to his cattle. The rivalry runs long and deep.

Back on track .... Tech got screwed by the no-calls on the two defensive RBs in the last two possessions.
And helped by the ticky tack block call on Embiid with 17 seconds left that sent them to the line to take the lead and the no call on the last play where Embiid "lost" the ball.

That was a block on Embiid -- and the last play was 'all ball' that went your way regardless. Tech got screwed -- no question. Give the Tubster credit for barely losing it. Self would have freaked out had this been at AFH.

Enjoy the early exit from the Dance.

AS does the trashy childish behavior and the the whole 2braincells thing in your family. Childish behavior in your family say it isn't so. Yet trash like you are proud to point it out. Trash will always trash. impressive.

Congrats on your long history of dooshy grandfathers. I for one think you should have it printed on a purple shirt and shut the **** up so we don't have to read your rambling to realize you and your grandpa are both trash.

That's easy. It was funny when it was KU players crying.
Good, they deserve it. KU is a bunch of entitled losers who will have an early exit from the tournament every year since the Big 12 pampers them with refs who will help them down the stretch. Its counter productive really.

This post wasn't needed. If you want to trash him make it basketball related, don't try to be a complete ******.

Or look at it this way: The ref called the foul knowing that the most Tech could go up by is 1, and Kansas would have the last shot of the game.


(Just wanted to get in on the conspiracy theories with everybody else)

At least ticey tack calls call a foul that actually exist. He did lose the ball multiple times. If you don't have full control of the ball you have a lot more freedom to let contact go as Embid was out of control. When out of control your arm has no more right to that space that the opposition as it becomes closer and closer to a 50/50 ball.

The first Jump ball was miles beyond tickey tack the Raiders head was nearly unscrewed from his body. Do you even pay attn to the **** you 2braincells splatters all over a board that is fairly unbiased in this game?

Fairly unbiased. That's funny.
