Ok well you just watch when they quietly adjust it to the actual horrific numbers (and tbch I think we're lucky if we get that page 9 adjustment/correction before the election)

With all this talk about PE money trying to get into college athletics I think its safe to say KU is going to hop on that train with zero regard to long term costs.

Does KU athletics own the rules of basketball or is owned by some other entity? Would hate to see them have to auction off the rules here in 10 years when PE turns the screws to recoup their investment.

I believe David Booth owns them and lends them to the University.

It was my understanding that the document in question is a facsimile of the Original Rules of Bssketball?

Not sure if it's a peeve so much as a curiosity... But what's the deal with people who feel the need to spit into the urinal before they start peeing? Like I don't think they just spit a lot and sometimes it happens to be at the urinal, it seems like a very specific and deliberate ritual.

dax has been waiting for this like a pitch outside the zone so he can rip it deep

I mean it's ku doing facilities improvements…statistical certainty they were gunna hang a slider. And seasoned veteran dax knows to wait and let that ball get to the zone so he doesn't rip it into the 3rd base seats

If I were a network exec I would do anything possible to get the 2024 heisman winner in an exclusive prime time slot

Gus might actually win an Emmy for his PBP description of Avery.
The ESPY is already in the bag (if those are still a thing?)

Point of order: is it acceptable if I have a 66 but he was like upended so he was upside down when the photo was taken. Can that be used as a 99?

Wait, he didn’t take the stand in his own trial?  Wtf

His lawyers wouldn’t let him take the stand. He wanted to take that stand so bigly. But like the late great Hannibal Lecter said, “never testify in your own trial, me boys”

It is 1000% for political purposes, the fact that you don't understand this is absolutely onbrand for #triggeredlick  :thumbsup:

All political:

This solicitation is strategically timed and structured to maximize its impact on gasoline prices, helping to lower prices at the pump as Americans hit the road this summer. 

the divisive politics of summer being the most popular time of the year for people driving places. is there no depth to which the dems won't stoop? disgusting.

I'd like to commend 'clams on his bravery. The blinking system is a game changer, when you think about it, you're just like "why isn't this just the way its done?"  Unfortunately for true crime courtroom drama, this method is completely devoid of drama and theatrics. It would do horribly on television. I'm not going to be surprised if 'clams is censured by BigCourtroomDrama

Usually just "call" and "testify" I think. But there's nothing weird about using "to the stand."

interesting, thanks! I think (just my humble opinion) the word "Take" was doing the heavy lifting in terms of making that phrase sound dramatic.  "He'll be on the stand today" uneventful. "He'll be taking the stand today" oh my stars! What bombshell will he drop and have the jury on the edge of their seats? riveting.

I'm not looking for anything. I'm talking about Pedo Pete in the Pedo Pete thread.

This is very triggering for #blueanongE

is this like, the same mechanism by which the libs were triggered by Sydney Sweeney's ample bazongas?

I think everyone has common ground that Biden and Trump both suck, dax.

incorrect. anytime someone is more critical of trump than they are of BigRig Joe that automatically means they are sycophants pulling their hair back to gobble that massive hog

Quick question for any of the lawyer cats (and horns/hawks!) who are also "that kind of lawyer" who goes to court where witnesses are called to testify:

Do you guys really refer to it as "taking the stand?" Like is that just what they say in the movies and true crime shows or is that how y'all really talk? It seems so melodramatic. "When that forensic accounting expert witness takes the stand today..."

i mean yes, i realize the term is to testify or provide testimony or w/e, i'm just asking when you're talking lawyer talk with other lawyers, how often do you say "taking the stand"?

Have none of you seen I love Lucy? One episode some huge country singer played the Wabash Cannonball on guitar and sang the whole song. He was playing the part of Lucy's cousin or something.

my very first k-state game when The Pride of Wildcat Land started playing the wabash cannonball i was like "oh crap! that's that song from that episode of i love lucy where that one country singer played the whole song, i think he was her cousin or something?" iconic.

We should add some filters that change some of these tired daxisms into silly phrases, just to train him how to communicate like a normal person.

all febrile screeds just gets filtered to say "hey man, how's it going?"

JON DELANO: So related to this is the whole issue of contraceptives. Do you support any restrictions on a person’s right to contraception?

DONALD TRUMP: Well, we’re looking at that and I’m going to have a policy on that very shortly. And I think it’s something that you’ll find interesting. And I’d see — it’s another issue that’s very interesting.

But you will, you will find it, I think, very smart. I think it’s a smart decision, but we’ll be releasing it very soon.

what does that gibberish mean?

stay tuned!

Anyone else surprised that Don is calling for a return to the Third Reich rather than starting his own and calling it Trump Reich or something?

if you've been paying attention, the only people that trump has any sort of deference toward is ruthless dictators. I don't think he sees himself as greater than them (yet) because he acknowledges that he has not yet ascended to the position of dictator. So for that reason I think he's fine w/ leaving it as the third reich (for now)

well i'm also in support of having a president that has the first clue as to what he's doing or saying, so, still #commonground

25
#commonground with Dax, I'm 10000000000% in support of having a president that doesn't flub every other word out of his mouth!
