In our immediate gratification society, everybody wants to point fingers.
--Dayton Moore, September 4, 2009
It all goes back to what we all get judged on - wins and losses - because that's what counts in our world and in our culture of immediate satisfaction and what have you done for me today.
-- Trey Hillman, September 15, 2009
I know what the fans want. They want it, and they want it now. Instant gratification just doesn't work in baseball.
-- Ned Yost, May 18, 2013
and that's what they call a culture of losing.
nothing will change until the people at the top change.
This is definitely a change from the top down situation. I would be more than happy to see the Glass family sell to owners who know something about baseball and who won't tolerate losing. I remember when the Brett brothers tried to buy the franchise, but it sold to the Glass gang instead. I was so disappointed, and remain so today.
Would Cuban buy the royals if the MLB would let him?

quite staggering really
It's time to go to FCS if they can't put at least one W on the board in conference this year. I'm 100% serious.

I am proud to be a KState basketball fan and I don't care what anyone else tells me / Re: KU Fans Become Enraged By Titletown, Meltdown All Over The Internet
« on: May 20, 2013, 11:03:15 PM »By your own definition, there is basketball, football and other sports you don't care about unless you are winning. You guys know it's the big 2 and then everything else. Shaggin' balls, gettin' to second base... you guys wouldn't care but for the fact you have a good catcher and your boys slammed a lot of big bombs this year.
That has some not so subtle erotic overtones, I like it.

« on: May 20, 2013, 09:23:56 PM »Why is a former NFLer trying to rob people? Doesn't make sense. I don't care what kind of demons you have, should never resort to violence.
I think something similar yet less fatal occurred with Paul Pierce in a hotel once.

Can you imagine having to trot out the women's track thing again and again. That was to kill him inside. I honestly can't believe he has continued it.

Normally I'm sad when he leaves, but I kinda hope he leaves for good now. He just doesn't have "it" anymore.

« on: May 20, 2013, 07:20:54 PM »I'm excited for KU basketball next season, guise. Maybe this will break their streak of one and done flops.
Yeah, McLemore was a huge bust.
He was draft eligible last year. Two and done.
He's a one and done. Played one year at KU as a freshman and then went pro.
He hasn't had the chance to flop yet so it doesn't really matter

Is there financial reward for winning the game? If not it probably won't happen on purpose anyway

We better not be paying anything close to market rate

Kstate cat football: There is Nothing Better on the Earth / Re: Memorial Stadium in Lawrence blows
« on: May 19, 2013, 09:50:15 PM »KU has multiple Big 12 titles this year in other sports
Yeah but I'm talking about sports that actually matter
Winning Big 12 titles doesn't matter to anyone outside the Big 12. K-State fans over hype it because your shitty program never wins anything on a national level. Your football team got blown out by Oregon, and your basketball team lost in the 1st round to LaSalle. Your program is a joke and couldn't be a worse representative for the Big 12.
KSU's participation in the Fiesta Bowl netted the Big12 approximately $18MM.
KU's BB team will net the Big12 an estimated $4.63MM over the next 6 years. The kicker is what the FB team cost the Big12. Mid-major teams play BCS conference teams and it's expected that the BCS conference teams beat them. It's expected of them so that those mid-majors don't have enough wins to crash the BCS. The KU FB team didn't do it's part against Northern Illinois, allowing them to take OU's spot on the BCS. That cost the Big12 $6.2MM in additional bowl payout.
KSU's impact on Big12 post-season revenue: $18.25MM
KU's impact on Big12 post-season revenue: $1.57MM
Come on man
