    The very best.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

Just about everything he does these days screams "me! me!...look at me"

.......and it all seems to have a high school mentality

The GP folks will go apecrap over this walk, however.

Yeah, but it didn't hurt NEARLY as much as me having to agree with Dax about something.

What are the odds that Prince will be first in line when they high five the grade school kiddies as they walk across the blacktop?

Okay fine, RP is selling the program. 

This is starting to sound more and more like a has-been program, with a lot of hope by the KSU faithful that this doesn't slip any further.   Bottom line is that if KSU football program was not in such a perilous state, RP would have no reason to have to sell, market, or whatever else you call it to get fan interest.

Otherwise, why not hunker down and just get the job done without all the fanfare BS?

Kinda like how ku runs commercials for their football program every 3 seconds?

If you can tell me the harm in the Wildcat Walk or whatever the hell he wants to call it we can discuss further, if you simply don't like the idea I don't think it matters much since your not the reason it was created anyways.

The only harm this can do is if there are no fans there to welcome the Team across the parking lot, and it just an awkward jog to the staduim.... If I were a player and I was told we were going to walk through a sea of fans to get them hyped up, and no one showed, that would probably hurt my confidence a bit... Likewise, if it turned out to a couple thousand screaming beatles style, I'd be that much more jacked... I think this idea is lame now, but could actually turn into a pretty cool tradition that the young children will probably love - and light that fire a little earlier in the players.

Kids don't care about gay ass traditions, they care about playing for a winner.  Prince can market the fact that unlike KSU's last HC he's not old enough to need carbon dating and the kids will react to it.  His biggest problem (other than the fact that his team is about to start playing games) is that his public persona is a bit too much P.T. Barnum and not quite enough Clint Eastwood.  Nothing wrong with a little marketing but RP needs to get with the program and shift into, "Go ahead, make my day," mode pronto. 

But unlike our squawk neighbors at least he doesn't have to market the fact tht his ass is so massive that its gravitational pull sucks the sh1t right back in.  (And you guys thought no one could explain why Mangino just keeps on getting bigger).   :yuck:
All that kids care about playing for a winner?  Agree that's a piece of it, but not all of it.  If that were true then Snyder would never have gotten the kids he needed to win in the first place.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

Do you actually think our football team is going to walk though the parking lot (both of which are filled to capacity with drunk fans) and no one is going to be there cheering them on? Seriously... I think it will go over great.

Called the "Wildcat Walk," K-State players and coaches will be dropped off approximately two-and-a-half hours prior to each game at Gate 3 on College Avenue in the west parking lot of Bill Snyder Family Stadium. The team will then make its way to the stadium through the parking lot on foot, eventually entering the facility through Gate C on the west concourse.

The program is encouraging fans to participate in the "Wildcat Walk" throughout the season by lining a path to the stadium and greeting the players as they arrive on game day.

That's a long fricking walk. I think pulling up on Kimball in front of Vanier and having them walk in with fans forming a path sounds better.

That was kind of my point.  I think this can turn out to be a simi-good idea.

Snyder would have gotten better players than he did after the team was an established winner as well.

That's why I said that's a piece of it.
Kids also like to feel like they can help rebuild, turnaround, have an impact.

Winners usually have a lot of talent, too much talent in front of you means it's going to be hard to see the field.

At the end of the day if you don't give a crap about the Wildcat Walk don't go watch them walk the lot, not that big of an issue eh?

You're poo-pooing dax's poo-pooing again?  You should be busting out a masterpiece with MS Paint.  I'm thinking a lynch mob sign theme might be a good idea.

Here's the thing ... Snyder wouldn't have thought of  doing this.

You think he'd really want his guys walking across a blacktop parking lot at 3 pm in early September??

I understand one thing being tossed about by the folks at HOK, is an "avenue" entry running through the middle of the West Parking Lot up to a totally overhauled West Side of the Stadium.  Doing a "walk" through something like that would be cool.

Point taken Java ... but the cannon was something that a student group decided to do on their own ... I forgot which frat house it was though now.

yeah, this seems a little too much like giving yourself a nick-name, then telling all of your friends to only refer to you as that name.

What we really need is KATPAK day, where we have a Stealth bomber fly over the stadium and drop KATPAKs onto us all.

That way we can all be PAK'N.

I like the bikes...

I wouldn't call it "tradition".

It's definitely odd.




The guy can do whatever he wants, but he reminds me of someone trying to hard to prove himself and make his mark.

There's a tradition I miss...it's called winning and hitting and playing with toughness.  And playing SMART...ie. not snapping the football without a punter back there or fielding a punt and fumbling it to give the game away, etc...

That's Weiser's fault?  I'd blame Chum1.

Well, some people hate him when he hasn't even got a chance to prove that this will be a tradition. If it is, all this other crap will be looked upon as a good thing or people won't care.
