    New Johnny’s starting next year.

    Johnny's has been a detraction from game day atmosphere for many years. People getting a stack of cookies to go share with everyone in their row and a free bag of popcorn. Fans leaving their seat early to get stale popcorn is probably worse than people leaving a 3 point game early to beat...

    UCF Post game thread

    Huh, we were close enough, UCF was gassed, we had all momentum, players that are calm and coaches that don't seem to panic. As soon as we got the ball back, I was 99.7% sure we were winning that game. We didn't need the extra downs and we didn't need the entire clock they granted us. Easiest...

    Jalynn Bristow Transferring

    Many years ago, I was crazy active on sports message boards. Then I quit. Every once in awhile I come back to read some comments on important games or items like this. Yes, I wish Bristow was staying, but idiotic posts like this remind me why I don't bother any more. There are people spouting...

    TJ best coach we have ever had?

    All you people saying Johnny, I understand the admiration he gets. He built it, but there was never that great team that was there competing for the NC, or really ever a conference championship. I'd guess you could take a best of roster of his teams and we've had multiple teams since then that...

    Duluth, Minnesota

    Congdon Park hike. Best urban trail ever, right in the heart of Duluth. Straight up, waterfalls at every curve, Great Hike, only a mile up and mile down.

    Switching careers in your 40s or older

    After 30 years in the same industry, I made a major change. Had the skills they were looking for and it got me away from bad bosses and bad owners. Only regret is not doing it sooner. Might have had a small pay drop at first, but back up now. You see a chance to do something that will make you...

    *** Official #7 Texas (SAMSUBA) vs #12 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I wasn't there last night, but I've been at most games in the last 30 years. That Okie State game was the only time I couldn't hear my own voice while screaming. It was that loud. Wish we'd had a decibel reading on that game.

    ***#11 Iowa State at #17 Oklahoma (Sunday, 2:00)***

    Exactly what makes women's ball unwatchable sometimes. That wasn't a blocked shot, it was a foul. I'd guess wasn't even a case of officials swallowing whistles at the end, just bad calls. Great try without Soares. 1.6 seconds to force OT.

    ***#11 Iowa State at #17 Oklahoma (Sunday, 2:00)***

    Welcome to women's basketball. Only thing I dislike about this sport, the officials randomly make us clear they have no clue and can't keep up with the game.

    Ryan Adams show @ CY Stephens Cancelled

    I like some of his music. Wouldn't take free tickets to see him again because of this.

    Officiating travesty in Lawrence

    I get what you're saying, but....... They played well enough to deserve the win. The O's didn't allow them to win. Random completely wrong calls late in a game always go KU's way.
