Title: Snyder's office
Post by: michigancat on November 05, 2014, 02:36:40 PM
My god, maybe he could get some real work done and maybe some actual sleep sometimes if he didn't have such a disgustingly cluttered office.  :sdeek:

You'll often see Sen. Pat Roberts, a 1958 K-State graduate, around the football complex in Manhattan when he's not in Washington. Snyder has several mementos from Roberts on his wall, and even says the senior senator has a special role within his program.

"He's our tight end coach," Snyder said. "I've always called him our tight ends coach because he always got on me for not throwing the ball to the tight ends enough. So, I told him I would make him a tight end coach. He comes in and I always introduce him that way to our players. They call him that as well."

It's kind of shitty how he tried to make it seem like his best bud Pat Roberts pulled a fast one on him.

I'm sure he called Pat and said "okay, I've got to save face with my university and my school, so I'm going to blame this on your people." And I'm sure Pat said "no problem, I understand. We've still got plenty out of our commercial. See you in a couple of weeks."

Like, they say Bill likes the actual pinocchio story for whatever reason, and that's fine.  There's plenty of good crap to learn there.  Probably a few of his goals came from it.  I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm really scared that LHC Bill Snyder is that Ultron guy and someday he's going to destroy the world because we're all gross and humany.

I already examined this piece,  son. The message is that Snyder should be exalted to the level of these other sports luminaries. IT'S THE NELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.

I think the guy on the right is Jack Hartman. And the guy left of him is Rip Taylor.

On a related note, while doing some googling about the Colbert-Snyder pic that may be the Zaprguder of our time, I came across this from SI in 1998.

If you want a good look at the painting, go to the Texas Roadhouse in Olathe. The huge painting is on the back wall. It is some sort of KU/K-state legends playing poker. Don't know why the gooney bird is flying through the air.

my guess is that the one on the left is the featured one and the one on the right still in plastic wrap is back up in case the main one gets scratched or something.

well if you can tell me why there is a guy hanging from the wall on the right, i'll forgive you for not knowing why someone is apparently throwing a jawhawk at him.

I always thought it was Snyder, Colbert,  Allen, Naismith playing poker and the guy on the right just walked into the room (can't see his face) and Snyder is shrugging as an answer to a question. I always hoped it was pinkle or Larry Smith demanding to know why Snyder always ran up the score on him? Never figured out who the guy in the back is and whether he threw the bird and if so is he throwing at the guy who just walked in.

You'll often see Sen. Pat Roberts, a 1958 K-State graduate, around the football complex in Manhattan when he's not in Washington. Snyder has several mementos from Roberts on his wall, and even says the senior senator has a special role within his program.

"He's our tight end coach," Snyder said. "I've always called him our tight ends coach because he always got on me for not throwing the ball to the tight ends enough. So, I told him I would make him a tight end coach. He comes in and I always introduce him that way to our players. They call him that as well."

It's kind of shitty how he tried to make it seem like his best bud Pat Roberts pulled a fast one on him.

I'm sure he called Pat and said "okay, I've got to save face with my university and my school, so I'm going to blame this on your people." And I'm sure Pat said "no problem, I understand. We've still got plenty out of our commercial. See you in a couple of weeks."

great point, neither really has a conscience

You're such a loser
