Title: MILES TO GO
Post by: Katpappy on October 19, 2019, 10:33:29 AM
These shows are very entertaining.  They remind me of the Turner Gill vids a few yrs ago.  They are a bunch of misfits pretending to be P5 football players with a clown for a coach.  If Pig Snout can't get the kats worked up enough to beat these losers; he's got to go.  :adios:

So, I am assuming that there won't be a new episode this week?  Not that I expected much.  I figured they would have a tour of the weight facility or something.

Should be Thursday. I’m torn on the show. It has flashes of brilliance but ESPN clearly does not have their A team editing it.

How any self-respecting KSU fan can directly aid ESPN in linking advertising dollars to the cesspool that is KU athletics is far beyond me, amigos.

Obviously there are still a bunch of KU fans working at ESPN (presumably couldn't get real sports jobs).  Isn't overt charity toward a shameful AD frowned upon by good people around the world?  How else could you explain a(n internet-only?) TV show about the worst football program in D1?

How scared of our success do the KU grads/dropouts at ESPN have to be to intentionally crop/exclude pictures of powercats on helmets from literally all photos (and most video stills) linked to the multiple front-page stories about the David-over-Goliath bludgeoning that was KSU over OU last week?  FFS.   This sounds crazy, but I am 100% serious and not making this up.  In first pic below, they literally included <blurry crowd scene on the left> instead of a helmet with a powercat on the right, and my brain (I'm not even a professional photo editor, mind you) responded with a giant WTF.  I don't think I've ever seen a similarly cropped photo.  Do they teach adversarial image cropping in Lawrentucky or something?  "Hey look, nation - purple team we want you to forget ASAP totally dominated OU!"

They probably figured that, since there’s a very clearly visible powercat on our jersey in literally every single one of those shots, it wasn’t necessary. Also, it’s almost certainly just a coincidence. WEIRD POST.

It's become a "guilty pleasure" for me because its just such a trainwreck.  And, yes, you're right... They post new episodes on Thursdays, usually around the lunch hour.  I know this because I office from home and sometimes watch as I eat my lunch.

That's a quick lunch since some of the episodes are 15 minutes or less.

If dax's numbers are accurate, and I have little reason to doubt them, then those poors need every nickel and dime they can get...

I'm happy to contribute.

Are there any "Who is K-State?" t-shirts available anywhere?  Would be interesting just to see if KU tried to claim a trademark on it.

Les is doing Hawk Talk Live right now on ESPN+. They're at Johnny's Tavern and he's just sitting their eating a full meal on camera while the host tries to talk to him. Every time he gets asked a question he looks angry he has to stop eating  :ROFL:

This is such a monumentally stupid idea it's hard to believe even ESPN would do something so ill advised. 
:bang:

Smart planning would have these interviews filmed - and then put in a vault until Miles actually starts showing some success.  :impatient:  Or, as is more likely to be the result, burned when he gets fired with a huge golden parachute in a few years - and forgotten that they ever had such a stupid idea. :'bye cruel world:

I'll see myself out... :Woot: :buh-bye:

No Smacker.  When I tuned in it was his sons sitting there answering questions bout some sort of weird crap Les does at home or something. I turned it off long before I figured out what they were talking about. I think maybe a sandwich was involved.
