No, what is embarassing for the football players are one-play highlight videos that take an etinerity to watch. The idiotic part of that is that you think they had anything to do with bringing back the Browns/Harper. lol

I don't think it helps that band people are such enormous dorks + K-Staters are such enormous dorks. This just means the K-STATE band is going to make several embarassing decisions every year.

Did anyone see that one imbecile (the same guy in the front row of the basketball games-blazer guy) sing Sweet Caroline to everyone in his section? He was in the sixth row and everyone was sitting down while he turns around and sings it to them with actions and everything. To be honest, even I was embarrassed for him.

Sweet Caroline was truly embarassing.  There were Texas fans in my section that were laughing about it.  Let that sink in.....Texas fans were laughing at us on a night where they had their own epic fail.  I had been chatting with a few them during the game, giving props to them for Greg Davis airplane banners and stuff.

Me:  "Stop laughing.....scoreboard, bitch"
Texas fan:  "Doesn't count during halftime.  This is Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) and you know it"

I honestly didn't have much of a response to him.     :chainsaw:
