Our Court Sucks Ass

[wildcat79]

Let me just refer you to pavlovs dog theory. Conditioned response. Apply that to losing over a twenty plus year time frame. People just quit going over time!  Then the no longer attending have children who then don't know or care to attend because the  tradition has become one of losing!! And you want to blame the POWER CAT for poor attendance!

Then hear comes the pissclam to the resuce! It's the power cats fault! Change that and they will come!  How about just win the damn games?

[michigancat]

I want to see a picture of the original floor of "the Bram'".

[Skycat]

Did we have the basketball with the script "Cats" on the floor?  Now  that thing sucked whether it was on the floor or not. 

You can quibble with the size, but I like having a purple Powercat at center court.

It was on the floor.  I suppose that was the original floor.

Did anyone else bother to try to convince themself that the teal was actually a good idea?

[wildcat79]

I've seen both sides of the coin baby and it starts with the last two decades or so . So quit your piss claming and over reaction to nothing! LOL If they play well they will come! Simple as that! Not the power cat fault man!

Two decades ago?  Gee, that's right about the same time we adopted the disgusting floor concept.  Not hardly a coincidence at all.  I'd say

What a concept! KSUs poor attendance was cause by a power cat on the floor. It had nothing to do with poor coaching, poor recruiting. Oh, I know how it goes! Lose constanstantly for the last 20 years and they will come! 

[wildcat79]

Now, raising the floor might be a good idea. But it won't raise attendance. Just recruit and win and they will come!

I KNOW coins and have seen tons of them all over the country (including some older than 20 yrs) so I don't know if you know what that means!!!  There is no coach or recruit in the nation that can play on a ugly floor and do well, if you know of some let's talk!!     COME ON WILDCATS FANS!    

Return the mystique of Bramlage and sand down the entire floor immediately!! START OVER!!

Bramlage has never had MYSTIQUE, AHEARN  did! But then Ahearn had several great coaches and great players, I think that is what one would call Tradition?! If we were to talk about a possible PROBLEM with Bramlage it would be the courts distance from the seating. JMO

[pissclams]

The quality of food at the concession stands is lacking.  When was the last time you had a really good nacho at "The Bram"?
If people knew that they could count on a solid snack (or two) at "The Bram" I believe they would turn out in hordes.

[chum1]

Halftime entertainment is also not near where it needs to be.

[chum1]

Dax, what's Weiser's email address?

Who has the best looking NCAA court ?

Can anyone photoshop the KSU court and redo it ?

[jmlynch1]

TAMU has the ugliest in my opinion.

[ksuno1stunner]

better?

[pissclams]

Beasley plays great at Rucker, much better.

[michigancat]

I think people don't come because there aren't any actual banners.  Who's idea was to put Elite Eight Appearances on a strip of wall?  I've spoken with a lot of K-Staters who avoid the "Bram'" for this very reason.

[KSt8er]

You guys know nothing, it is the sound that keeps fans away.  Ever heard of the project the military was/is experimenting with where they produce bass sounds below the human ability to hear and it makes people very sick?   Yep, same effect in action.   All the sound that fans attempt is absorbed and re-projected as inaudible bass.   You heard it hear first   

[JesusShuttlesworth]

Who's idea was to put Elite Appearances on a strip of wall?

I agree that this is horrible.  It's like we are hiding our accomplishments.  It is yet another example of going cheap on men's basketball.  I hope we make some attempt at sprucing things up after selling out season tickets and landing a huge Nike deal. 

Banners are a must. 

pbadke: We need a new web site to get ADTW's attention.  "Hey Tim Weiser, Hang some banners in Bramlage already!"

Huggins is "into hanging banners", not "applying digital prints of numbers to walls".  Hopefully we get this fixed before he has an excuse to leave.

[fatty fat fat]

We need a new topic about Huggins and leaving. I have some new thoughts* on that.

*basically, i'm thinking there is no where for him to go, because everyone still views him as "thuggins"

[wildcat79]

I just love the irrashanality of it awl!! What a threat! Been then I guess 20 plus years of crappy couching and nobody players will do just that! Most on this board never saw Rolando,Evan or Williams play. You missed something pretty darn special. They to this day could stand toe to toe with ANY K-WHO player! Except maybe willt.

I believe you are referring to Operation Brown Note, and by "sick" you meant shat themselves.

[ECN]

mythbusters did an episode on the brown note myth....

no shatting happened.

[pissclams]

mythbusters should do a show about whether or not people tune in and watch those two losers bust myths.

[ECN]

oooooooooo kay

[Trim]

We got dinged in this, but not as bad as ku:

Kansas Jayhawk (5). Why a school with that much tradition would devote so much floor space to a lame cartoon bird is a mystery to The Minutes.

[pissclams]

More ammo for "The Media Hates ku" contingent.

[coitus]

i'm diggin the blacked out court.

substitute purple for the white areas, and you got it.

oh, and we need a dallas cowboys style 40 yard video board for all the crazy beasley/walker dunks coming our way.

and a little study cubicle next to fan accomodations so rusty can finish coloring his homework while at the game.

[ECN]

that was cute. i liked that.

Just curious, but why should K-State "know better"?
