Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

I have been saying for a while now that "Ben 'n Dax" would make a great CBS sitcom.

Damnit. What a garbage 'plan' they've got going. $70 million? Wow. :rolleyes:

I'm definitely going to spend a bunch of time in the Hall of Mediocrity or whatever they call it, ooh-ing and ahh-ing at the jerseys of former basketball greats who are already dead and I never heard of. Then maybe spend 38 seconds buzzing through the area they reserve for memorabilia devoted to our national title football teams. What, are we going to build a 12,000 foot purple spire to commemorate the one time we won a conference championship? crap. :blindfold:

I'd rather throw out 70 million $1 bills and KSU flyers from an airplane over Prince George County. Would be better for the future of our program(s) than this dump. :blindfold:

edit- And one more thing. Russ Briggs is the head of the 'steering committee' for this craphole? I GUARANTEE YOU we will end up with more Briggs crap plastered everywhere then you can possibly imagine. Frank and Co. will be wearing purple and orange windsuits with kansasstatecars.com all over them. How franking long before we rename the university after him? Seems perfectly reasonable to me. At least he doesn't want pictures of his face everywhere, although maybe that's the way to get him to lay off. Ppl won't buy cars from dudez that look like Saddam Hussein. :blindfold: :blindfold: :blindfold: :mad: :frown: :chainsaw: :blindfold: :blindfold: :blindfold: :blank: :blank: :jerkoff:

Talked to a buddy last night that's working on the project...

Apparently, things are pretty quiet right now.  Sounds like they're securing bids from contractors.

I asked him if the recent economic downturn would hurt the project in terms of rising contruction costs, etc.  He said yes, but it would kind of balance out because contractors would lowball bids to get a big job like this.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting.  Progress is being made.  The basketball facility has money secured, so that will just keep going.  What they're rasing money for now is the football renovations.

At least that's what I got out of the conversation.  He's not at liberty to say a whole lot, and I didn't press him.

Heard the same thing regarding the funding last week.  The money has been secured for the basketball project and it will get completed.   $6 million was raised in less than a year for the project.

LOL at Ben.

K-State just remodeled its baseball clubhouse that was just brand new 3 years ago.  ku just now getting individual dressing rooms for track, volleyball and other sports, things K-State has had for years, and many of them having just been totally renovated.    :fiesta:




Just pointing out that K-State has struggled a little bit to get things rolling.  I don't think you can deny that at this point.

How can I deny that??  You have no clue as to what the timeframe was to begin with.  I could say the same thing about ku . . . KSU first expands and renovates its stand alone football offices in 1992 . . . that's 1992 Ben.  KSU put another addition on the STAND ALONE Football offices in 1994 including the Academic Center . . . they put another expansion and do $10 million dollars worth of renovations in 2005 . . . in 2007 ku finally opens its own stand alone football complex.   Just 15 years after Glen Mason first asked for his own football facility.

In 1993 . . . KSU built a massive football only indoor practice facility.  ku . . . still doesn't have a football only indoor practice facility.  K-State's already replaced the original turf with FieldTurf in its stand alone football practice facility . . .ku football still has to share its facility with track and other sports.

K-State opened a new baseball stadium with a brand new clubhouse, baseball only weightroom and renovated the baseball only indoor practice facility 3 years ago.   ku baseball just got its own clubhouse and has never had, nor likely will never have its own indoor practice facility. 

See how this works??
 

So sure, we'll talk about "dragging feet" anytime Ben.

So, looks they are starting by snaking the sewer lines :dunno:

Duh, that's always the first thing you do on a project like this.  Second step is generally steam cleaning the carpets, and then they move on to some light gardening or possibly a nice game of gin rummy.

Whoa, slow down turbo, you're getting ahead of yourself.  Drip irrigation comes after the installation of the sauna.  Plan to work, and work the plan.
