What a crap article.

Jeremy Stahl makes good points and is completely right. No one likes the Yankees, no one likes the Lakers, or the Patriots outside of their bandwagon fans, just as no one likes KU.

This clown is about 2 IQ points shy of being Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!). None of this makes any sense.

Love his points about rooting for Richmond and you support Slavery. Root for KU and you support murdering innocent civilians because you're too rough ridin' incompetent to be able to find a few bearded guys in the woods....who are from MISSOURI of all places....not the smartest people in the world, nor the hardest to find.

If you root against KU basketball, then, you are actually rooting for slavery. You're supporting the Confederacy over United States, cheering for racism, oppression, and war, and, not for nothing, you want President Obama to fail—all of which are certainly "odious" and "contemptible" by any reasonable definitions.


I thought all this was what squawk basketball stood for?  :confused: Beems?  Confused here  :confused:

That kind of junk just isn't what Kansas Basketball is supposed to represent.

KU may not be all snooty like Duke, with delusions of Ivy grandeur,
Quote
Like Tyrel Reed, for instance. A senior from little Burlington, Kansas, Reed is not only living a childhood dream of playing for Kansas, he will graduate early, in three and a half years, and was named as a first-team Academic All-American.
Er, he either graduated early, or he will graduate in four years. Editor please.

This is the most honest I will ever be. I rough ridin' hate KU. Every single fan, every single player. I have KU alum in my family: I hate them.

I didn't care about KU at all until I came to K-State. After my first football game against KU, the seeds of hate were planted by KU fans. Then came basketball, the tree began to grow. Less than a year into my college education, murder came to mind every time I saw the colors blue and red together.

But I did root for KU to beat Nebraska in football once...

My personal hate (and I mean when I started to consider homicide strongly) probably goes back to our loss to KU in manhattan in...2007 I think, football. After being assured that "there is no rivalry" from every snooty ass KU fan in the state, the fans decided to mock and deride us in our own town for the entire day. I had GIRLS screaming RCJH in my rough ridin' face in the parking lot as I was leaving the staduim after. I was yelled at and mocked by groups of KU (what I assume were frat dudes, but you really can't tell with KU fans...they take douche to a whole new level) fans my entire walk home. Seriously like 2 miles and I was yelled at by at least 7 different groups of people....and I was just walking! THEN, when we beat KU they're even worse!


All the while claiming they don't care about us. Sure.

Surely you're familiar with the concept of offering evidence or some sort of coherent argument. Granted, we are not 100% squeaky clean. Name me a major college basketball program who has never been in any trouble for anything. Right, I can't think of any either. Nice try though.

Sounds like a bunch of assholes that were a little too wet about our football victory. That was a great year for us. But come on, the football rivalry isn't really domination. I mean we lead 65-37. But looking at the last 15 years, we can't talk that much crap in the realm of football.

In this case, America can suck it.

Why exactly do you guys root against us so strongly? Sure, I don't like some of your fans. But I was still pulling for you guys against Wisconsin last Saturday.

Just curious.
your university has a history of conduct that includes fraud, theft, lying, tax evasion, more lying, support of criminals and a general lack of respect to any rules which govern athletics and society as a whole.

You're silly.
excellent retort.  But you know I'm right.  Your entire athletics tradition is founded on a tradition of theft.

Surely you're familiar with the concept of offering evidence or some sort of coherent argument. Granted, we are not 100% squeaky clean. Name me a major college basketball program who has never been in any trouble for anything. Right, I can't think of any either. Nice try though.

Also--to the racist comment? WHAT? I live in Lawrence. You are severely misguided in saying that.
now i know for sure you are a bandwagon fan.   :dubious: sorry for going down this road.  only someone who is serious about athletics should proceed.

Oh look! A cop out! Because you can't support your claims. Beautiful. I guess it's 'bandwagoning' when you were born and raised in Lawrence and have lived there all your life.
For serial?!?!

square 1 naismith stole basketball
1988 title: only time a team has been prohibited from defending a title because of their cheating
2008 title: only time a team has won a title on probation.....but why were they on prob oh thats right Z LIST
-player paid, players had grades changed in high school which should have made them ineligible (du-rel arthur), players had tutors take test for them
your football field is named after a felon (kivisto field)
your athletic department defrauded the federal government and hindered the war effort during wwii by claiming Allen Field house was an "armory" thereby defrauding the government into allowing them more building materials which should have gone to making stuff to protect our soldiers, airmen and sailors

I'm so glad no one on this board is mad that $70,000,000 in FEMA money went into building a new club section at Hilton, along with state of the art locker rooms, equipment, and weight training facilities. At least we aren't unpatriotic like KU!!  :nono:

Just curious.

This is the most honest I will ever be. I effing hate KU. Every single fan, every single player. I have KU alum in my family: I hate them.

I didn't care about KU at all until I came to K-State. After my first football game against KU, the seeds of hate were planted by KU fans. Then came basketball, the tree began to grow. Less than a year into my college education, murder came to mind every time I saw the colors blue and red together.

But I did root for KU to beat Nebraska in football once...

I can respect all of that. I don't have a problem with the fact that you hate us. I was just curious WHY. Thank you.

My personal hate (and I mean when I started to consider homicide strongly) probably goes back to our loss to KU in manhattan in...2007 I think, football. After being assured that "there is no rivalry" from every snooty ass KU fan in the state, the fans decided to mock and deride us in our own town for the entire day. I had GIRLS screaming RCJH in my effing face in the parking lot as I was leaving the staduim after. I was yelled at and mocked by groups of KU (what I assume were frat dudes, but you really can't tell with KU fans...they take douche to a whole new level) fans my entire walk home. Seriously like 2 miles and I was yelled at by at least 7 different groups of people....and I was just walking! THEN, when we beat KU they're even worse!


All the while claiming they don't care about us. Sure.

"I hate to say anything that may hurt UCLA, but I can't be quiet when I see what the NCAA is doing (to other coaches) only because (they have) a reputation for giving a second chance to many black athletes other coaches have branded as troublemakers. The NCAA is working night and day trying to get (them), but no one from the NCAA ever questioned me during my four years at UCLA."

That quote comes from none other than Bill Walton, maybe the greatest Bruin of them all, in a 1978 book "Bill Walton: On the Road with the Portland Trail Blazers," which went on to detail how Sam Gilbert, a Los Angeles contractor the feds allege made millions laundering drug money, bought a decade worth of recruits for UCLA.



Love the double standard, ed.  It's obvious that UCLA has always done things "the right way."

On one hand, UCLA has a tradition rich with success, class and glory. Good people, great stories, wonderful memories. On the other is the fact the Bruins eviscerated the rule book like no program before or after, but went largely unpunished by a NCAA that wanted no part of taking down its marquee team.

And the truth is, neither image is wrong. And neither one is right. This is college athletics, yesterday, today and probably forever, no matter how sweet the package, now matter how pretty the bow.

It is how Wooden, universally hailed for his remarkable grace and humility, has wound up seemingly beyond reproach. No matter how dirty his program, today he sells books, speeches and financial planning commercials based on his image of trust and honesty.


Look up Sam Gilbert and get back to me, ed.  UCLA has about ten national titles that are tainted with the worst kind of cheating you can even imagine.  Oh, and then there's Jim Harrick, who won a title at UCLA in 1995, and is known as one of the dirtiest college basketball coaches of all-time.

UCLA players recalled his showing up after Bruins games in the 1960s, dispensing apples and oranges.

so much Ironing that you post about that.  *waits for ben to see the irony of posting that story*

"I hate to say anything that may hurt UCLA, but I can't be quiet when I see what the NCAA is doing (to other coaches) only because (they have) a reputation for giving a second chance to many black athletes other coaches have branded as troublemakers.

That quote comes from none other than Bill Walton, maybe the greatest Bruin of them all, in a 1978 book "Bill Walton: On the Road with the Portland Trail Blazers," which went on to detail how Sam Gilbert, a Los Angeles contractor the feds allege made millions laundering drug money, bought a decade worth of recruits for UCLA.

In this case, America can suck it.

Why exactly do you guys root against us so strongly? Sure, I don't like some of your fans. But I was still pulling for you guys against Wisconsin last Saturday.

Just curious.
You were pulling for us because we're easy to love.  We're rough ridin' adorable from our take-no-crap coach down to our pimple-faced, squeaky-voiced Kansan freshman.

I root against you this year because you have a bunch of worthless human beings on the team.  Little beats women (deal breaker for me).  The McMorris thugs throw elbows, shoot old ladies with BB guns and wreck other people's car whilst commenting attempted statutory rape.  Morningstar is a spoiled little rich kid who thinks he can "do you know who I am?" his way out of a DUI and has a white-collar criminal for a father.  TieShauwn is an ignorant thug that starts campus brawls with the football team.

Overall, I have no problem with KU in general.  Didn't have a problem at all with your '08 team that won it all.  KU has always been good at cheating and I actually kind of admire them for that.  This year over half your team is just a bunch of thugish woman beaters and dirty players.  Got no love.

The point is UberButtHurtElite Ben . . . is that multiple AAU sources know that ku "spent" more money keeping Dick Rub and the Tooth around another year (just one example) than Sam Gilbert likely spent during the entire run at UCLA.

I don't have a problem with it,  like I've said before, I've claimed for years that K-State needs to close the gap on cheating with ku.

Just curious.

1.  Their crowd is so overrated by the national media.  It is probably the 3rd or 4th loudest place to play in the Big 12.  (OOD, Paige Laurie, Pickens Palace, The Flood Plain).

2.  Bandwagon fans
--There are so many KU bball / Nubb or KSU football fans.  IDGAF if that is how you grew up. Its pathetic.  Most of those fans also attend JCCC, WSU, Pitt State, Rock U, etc. I don't have much of a problem with KU fans who attend school there or are alums.

What do most KU fans have in common with Elton John?

They didn't go to KU either.

3.  For some reason until the Morris thugs got some attention for being cheap bastards this season, they seem to keep a Duke like squeaky clean image which is a joke.

I'd go on, but I'm risking a few MartaviousDNRs already.

I don't really give a eff who invented the game, but who sounds more reasonable here:

Quote
Before long he’s screaming, out of breath.

“I’m ready to kick some ass,” he said. “I will hurt somebody. Whoever says it can face me, and I’m 260 pounds.”

But to Ian Naismith, this is more than a theory. These are fighting words.

“This is the first family of basketball,” he said. “Don’t call my grandfather a liar.”

Quote
“I’m sure — more than sure — that my grandfather had a lot to do with the history of basketball,” he said. “He (Naismith) invented the idea. He just didn’t invent the whole game. There’s plenty of room for skepticism.”

Who knows what’s really true and what’s not?” Lawrence said. “A lot of the history that kids read in books, let’s face it, it’s just not true. It gets changed. It gets lost. It gets reinvented and claimed.

“We all wish we knew the exact thing. I just wish my grandfather got a little more credit than he did. Who deserves more credit? Who did what? Who will ever know?”

Naismith sounds like $2MM trust fund baby that prolly claims to have played AAU ball somewhere or something Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) like that.  Perfect butt hurt KU fan.

A team photo shows Will's team with a dated basketball before Naismith's claim of having the first game.[12]"
