*******ALERT! ALERT! The link below is now updated and live for 2017 FattyFund KK purposes ALERT! ALERT!*******
We love to make EMAW dream teams, and now it can really happen. Who else should be on this team? Beasley's probably the only one that would be ineligible schedule-wise.

Also, if you're going to the first weekend of games in Chicago, recognize they are on Saturday 7/16 and Sunday 7/17, not some other days that C2W erroneously bought flight tickets for originally.
Will post info on PAK'n as it gets figured out.

It's been brought to my attention that Bill may be ineligible too, depending on when he last got NBA money.

I don't know what the competition looks like but you would have to compile an NBA roster to beat that.

Southwell & Walker can't make it b/c they'll be in season
They are looking for more EMAW to round out the roster, but that is it for now
-
OMG! I have basketball to cheer for!!!!
They do need an atheltic wing, no Billy Walker hurts a lot.

JO said they will be playing in CHI, which means July 17-19

Can we change the board name to something that has to do with Purple and Black? It honestly feels more like K-State hoops than whatever loser stuff oscar Weber is up to.

I'm scared that they might get punked in the tournament and it might ruin all of my great memories of them. :frown: :ohno:

wacky get out of here

It's an honest fear, 'bias. What are the rules on these rosters? Just no NBA players?

I'm not sure you can find a better team of non NBA guys than that team. I mean most of them are probably close to fringe NBA players. And they have chemistry already, i think they will be one of the contenders without knowing anything about the other teams.
-
even if they get punked out of the tourney WC who cares? Its just great imagining them together again
-
Oh, I agree. I'm very excited for it.
@Chuck, I'd imagine a lot of fringe NBA players from colleges that play over seas will do this. I would imagine that would make up most of the teams. It should be a lot of fun to watch.
-

Oh I know but we are talking about a core that was a top 5-7ish team nationally when it was together. I'm obviously biased but I just think this is about as good of a roster as possible with non NBA players.
-
Myck Kabongo, D.J. Kennedy and CJ McCollum seem to be the best players on the championship team from last year.

We could really use Beasley as the ringer once we get to the sweet 16. Can NBA player play? I mean McCullum is a NBA player.

how do we know it's Chicago and not Philadelphia?

I think the opening round is in Chicago and if they advance, it's in Philly. TBT tweeted something out like that.
-
t-y :thumbs:
-
how do we know it's Chicago and not Philadelphia?
The top 12 vote getters in each region will receive "automatic" bids, while TBT will select 4 at-large teams per region to complete the field of 64
Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Charlotte to host regional rounds
Upon registering, teams can apply to any region they choose
They're picking Chicago. A team could pick a less desirable region to have greater odds of making the top 12, but P&B won't need help.
-
Do they only televise the finals?
-
super 16 and on is on ESPN family I think, before that you can stream
-
Do they only televise the finals?
Round 1 & Round 2 stream live here on Saturday July 9 & Sunday July 10 in the South & West regions; and Saturday July 16 & Sunday July 17 in the Northeast & Midwest regions.
Round 3 (Super 16) airs live from Philadelphia University on ESPN, ESPN2, or ESPNU on Thursday July 21 (4 games) & Friday July 22 (4 games).
Round 4 (Round of 8) airs live from Philadelphia University on ESPN, ESPN2, or ESPNU on Saturday July 23.
The Semifinals air live from Fordham University on ESPN on Saturday July 30.
The $2 million, winner-take-all Championship will air live from Fordham University on ESPN on Tuesday August 2.
-
I'd say they'd have a real chance
if Underwood coached them or if Frank coached them they could live stream to Undie and he could tell Frank what to do.
-
Where is the best place to get stats for all the players?
-
I watched a few on ESPN last year. One of the things I remember is that they put the players salary (if they win it all) on their profiles. And most teams wouldn't just split it between everyone. Like, one guy would be getting 15k, and the next would be getting 90k, etc. For some reason I thought that was funny
-
Has anyone found where in Chicago this is?
-

The official rules kind of contradict the generalities above but again, P&B won't have any issue getting what they want.
When registering his or her Team, a GM must select the region in which his/her Team would like to participate when creating the Team on the Website. The Producer will try to organize the Tournament so that a Team invited to participate in the Tournament will be able to play in the desired region, but Producer cannot guarantee placement in the desired region.

How the eff do you even self coach that team? That would be the hardest part.

i'm sure he's always wanted to

I knew that was coming. :ROFL: Having to police your own team as players has to be rough. I remember being in 3 on 3 tournaments growing up with a 4 man roster. One year we made it to 'ship and it was my turn in the rotation, but the coaches son, didn't want him to sit. I mushed them and we won! :gocho: Not because of me, but how do they decide minutes? Can you elect a coach?

-
Frank has nothing going on in July. It would actually a pretty cool recruiting tool for a college coach, assuming they'd get a lot of face time on espn in the middle of the summer. Of course oscar would be disappointed that he didn't get the bang for the buck he was promised.

Once the hotel is designated, we can get things foamboarded and FedEx'd to the HQ for pickup upon arrival.

I'm looking at getting there a little before 2pm Friday, unless I decide to make a real time of it and go Thursday. Thanks to the Nick Russell effect, I can leave early Monday and be back at my desk not much past 9.

IMPORTANT:
We're gonna try for one of these fan prizes, and put any winnings into the Fatty Fund.
When voting time comes, please vote through the page and links that we'll be blasting all over the place so that KK/FFF or however we figure out how to set it up will be one of, if not the top fan and when P&B wins, we'll get a nice extra post-FattyFest bump of cash into the Fund.

That was a personal dubious, no matter how much I liked watching these dudes play I am not giving them money for this. They have people on this team that either are currently being paid to play basketball or people who have played for money, on top of this they're playing this tournament for money. It's like throwing money into a Kickstarter for a famous actor to make a movie. That being said I would never criticize someone for how they would spend their hard owned money.

I'm sure the team can save some travel money by crashing at the Pullens and taking the CTA bus.

Make sure you do the right thing after KK does the right thing first and then recruits you to do the right thing too.

Uhh... Games are the 16th and 17th
If there's 2 things 8mp knows, it's Chicago gE HQ Snickers and what days the games are on (not the days C2W booked a flight for).
Fixed...thanks guys, that was a close one.

:dubious:
:dunno:
That was a personal dubious, no matter how much I liked watching these dudes play I am not giving them money for this. They have people on this team that either are currently being paid to play basketball or people who have played for money, on top of this they're playing this tournament for money. It's like throwing money into a Kickstarter for a famous actor to make a movie. That being said I would never criticize someone for how they would spend their hard owned money.

If I was told I could have one nice K-State basketball thing but it couldn't have anything to do with current K-State basketball, this is pretty much it.

I don't know.
I haven't put together a site with the shirts or anything yet. I was thinking these things will sell beyond just the folks of gE. Also, I plan to communicate with Purple and Black/JO to make sure its okay with them. Finally, I think the Anderson silhouette might get me another C&D letter.
-
If they send you a C&D for this I will personally drive to manhattan and fight John Currie.

Just make an alternate shirt that says John Currie is a horrible, horrible person
Maybe at the bottom or on the back, do clip art of each scandal that these guys were involved in.
A western union receipt
A dillards shopping bag
An image of Bosco (or picture of Bosco the cat)
etc etc (I did the easy ones.)

Wow! I never thought JO would save my K-State fandom! :emawkid:
“I think the fans kind of needed it,” Henriquez said. “The season didn’t go too well with Kansas State basketball. I believe in the players and the staff that are there. They will get things turned around. But bringing the guys back together will give fans something to be really excited about now.”

Looks like the silhouette to the philly city hall to me...unless Kstate has the monopoly on steepled building shadows, fire those babies up.

1) Register an account, activate, don't vote.
2) Be logged in, don't vote.
3) Close the window w/o logging out.
4) Click on the link we've provided. You will be on P&B's voting screen and still logged in. Vote.
5) Don't do any of the sharing it suggests you do after you vote. To spread the word, share the link we've provided.
I know that works. I suspect one could also register and so forth from the link we've provided but I'm not sure, so just do the above for now as it absolutely works.

And what does the experience level refer to?
Also, Martavious summary:
TBT contacted a basketball ops guy from KSU saying he should put together a team last year. Ops guy reached out to 'Tay and HenRob. HenRob kinda ran with it and everyone was pretty excited to make themselves available once someone was organizing it.
He will dance if HenRob will put down a beat on a doorway/wall
Thinks the exposure and being on ESPN will help him and other players get on teams in europe or wherever
Loves playing with JamSam
Thinks Bruceketball will be good next year once the players develop
Really happy for Brad. Always appreciated that Brad reached out from South Carolina when he graduated to tell him how well he developed and how proud he was.
-
To be eligible you have to have 7 players and 200 votes by June 1.
The Experience Ranking is a tool to let fans know the relative experience level of each team. When you sign up as a Player, you put in your highest level played. We then assign a value to your team based on the cumulative experience level of all of its players.

Pretty sure you can only vote for P&B once from the email you registered with, and that KK only gets credit for those who voted for P&B through him. I don't think it benefits anyone that matters to cast the other 3 votes you get for other teams.
-
ok, thanks.
-
From what I've seen, if you vote for 3 other teams, those points will be given to your account and the account that recruited you so it would be worth it to just vote for 3 random teams.

It never got quite that high. The vote total on the list of teams page was higher than on the p&b team page since voting started though and it looks like they cleaned that up. Vote totals on both pages are the same now.

I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first with all the hype Purple And Black was getting, but after seeing the names and accolades of those on roster, boy was I wrong. A big team with a lot of depth down low, Purple And Black has arguably the best frontcourt in TBT at this point.

Purple & Black is HERE!
Purple & Black Fans!
Because of you, we’re sitting atop the Midwest team rankings and one step closer to competing in TBT 2016 this summer for the $2,000,000 prize! Our roster is looking great so far, with a lot of talent scheduled to play for us:
PG Martavious Irving
PG Jacob Pullen
F Wallace Judge
F Curtis Kelly
F Jamar Samuels
C Thomas Gipson III
C Jordan Henriquez
We can add 4 more players to the roster, and we’re in discussions with several. Also, if we get to 2,000 votes, we will be able to add a Ringer during the Super 16 and beyond, which can be any player we want!
You can help us get to 2,000 votes by sharing our team with your friends, family, co-workers from your Account page, or our team page, and ask for their vote.
Click Here To Recruit More Fans
The more voters you recruit, the more points you get. The more points you get, the higher you rank. And the higher you rank, the more money you could win if we go all the way! 10% of this year’s $2 million prize – $200,000 – will be shared by the winning team’s voters.
Thanks for your support and Go Purple & Black!

Do you guys think that sprads is available?
I'm pretty sure GTM would let him take some time off.

Jake is great, but let's be honest, he is no Sprads.
-
This team is going to get rocked. Our back court is jake and martavious. Jake is great, but we have no depth. There's so many other great alumni teams out there with depth. Sorry to ruin the reunion for you guys.

Get lost wacky

It doesn't take a genius to break this down. Also, they still have Samuels listed, who's injured. Unless they recruit some depth, they'll be done real early. Especially with that Kentucky team in the Midwest as well.

Wacky is going to feel dumb when Wally Judge puts this team on his back to the finals.

I think everyone got excited, thinking it would be a competitive group at first, but there's just not enough in the tank right now. Kind of a tease
-
I think it possible that our squad could be very good. Overall, though, I have absolutely no idea what will happen with any of these teams. That's what is most fascinating about it to me. There are people who have played in the NBA on some of these teams. And then some of the other guys look like they're basically just street ball legends. No idea if that's actually true or not, but I really want it to be.

If anything was ever gonna get our guy newem back, it's the upcoming TBT news.

Sources say that P&B would love for someone to make a "highlight 'hype' video" for the team now that the roster's full. @_33 or whoever want to take a stab at it?
I don't speak for them, but I'd certainly love to see said video feature disproportionate AJ highlights and maybe limit Nino's to the times he got injured, but whatever, that's my artistic vision. Do whatever you want.
Hell, I'd enjoy a 4-minute still shot of the "happy" Jake & Curt poster over a dope beat.

How'd oscar get his 5-fingered fists into this endeavor?
The Purple and Black Camp, which costs $100 per camper, will give youth players the opportunity to interact with some of the best basketball players K-State has produced, even if they are too young to remember.
“For the ones who may not know who we are, you’ll get a chance to meet us and have a good time and get better,” Henriquez said of his message to prospective campers.
The focus of the three-day camp, which runs 1-4:30 p.m., each day, will be on basic fundamentals such as dribbling, passing, shooting, rebounding and defense.
To sign up for the camp, go to www.bruceweberbasketball.com or print off a camp brochure from the website and mail cash or a check to: oscar Weber Summer Basketball Camps, 1800 College Avenue, Ice Family Basketball Center, Manhattan, KS 66502.
For more information on the camp or to reserve a spot, please contact the men’s basketball office at (785) 532-6531 or email [email protected].

Wow. I'm sure the players just need more money?

#4 Purple and Black (Kansas State Alumni) vs. #13 The Region
Game Time: 2:15p CT
Purple and Black signed up on the first day of the application process and got 2,000 votes overnight. The fan base didn’t stop growing after that, and it’s easy to see why. This is the core of the 2010 K State team that went to the Elite 8. They face off against The Region, a first-time TBT participant from outside Chicago featuring Chicago legend Stefhon Hannah and Jarrod Jones, who holds the all-time record for games started at Ball State.
:surprised:
-
That 2:15 time is perfect too, for me.
So who's gonna be at this thing? Get after it (shout to Wooly) hardest Saturday night? What sort of restriction does rough ridin' rammstein (sp?) et al have us under as far as #longbone reservations go Friday night?

:peek:
I am going to boo the crap out Hannah.

I'm gonna have to do some archives searching to remember Hannah details.

To say he has bounced around is a bit of an understatement

Didn't Hannah have some legal issues at MIZ?

I want to find something in the archives of whatever anger he got hit with in the OOD, so I can replicate it in Chicago and cause him some traumatic flashback.

COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Missouri guard Stefhon Hannah, the central figure in a nightclub fracas that led to the suspension of five players, was kicked off the team on Tuesday.
Hannah's jaw was broken outside the Athena nightclub about 1 a.m. Jan. 27, hours after the Tigers returned from their first road victory of the season at Colorado. Missouri's leading scorer, a senior, was dismissed a day before the Tigers' game at Nebraska on Wednesday.

I can't find that picture for Tyree that was an open pair of handcuffs that formed a 3 or an E or something. :frown:

He wanted some chicken fingers or something after the kitchen was closed iirc.

I'd try to make a reservation for us, c2w & rdrils, and mod it up if more say they want to #longbone.

I expect to have something solid in place by tomorrow for Saturday pregame within a mile of the arena.

I vote for the Chicago Chophouse. They appear to long bone ever-y-thing.

All of these places #longbone though if that's what you were checking for:

I have been to the chop house but I didn't know about long bonin' at the time. Would go back

Charles Barkley loves the Chophouse, that is probably all you need to know. I thought RPM was only okay in relation to other kick ass steakhouses. Haven't been to 3 Forks. Mastro's is also very good.
-

Sold.
Mastro's is also very good.
I think Mastro's has always been excluded b/c they've only got short bones on the menu there.

Am I going to be able to walk into these places with shorts, kicks, and a polo shirt or am I going to need to pack a tux?

Chicago Chop House adheres to a smart casual dress code.
I can handle getting cleaned up at the hotel after sweating all day and throwing on pants and a shirt of the non-t variety.

Yeah, probably best to wear pants

Demetri McCamey is on our team for some reason (this is good btw)?
that's all for this immediate moment

with no denis I don't know what I expected. who is actually there? I've vaguely been paying attention but the only players I've noticed are jake, IL guy, akeem, lance, JO, martavious. are curt, jamar, dom there?

and if curt and jamar are just going to do hijinks on the bench that I eventually see video of and we lose I'm fine with that as well

Curt was at a funeral I think

I just remember the end of every game during the Wooly era. It was like 56-56 with 3 min left and then our guys got completely tired and winded. Final score: Other Big XII Team 64 Cats 58

We are like 3 min into the second half

They didn't figure out that they could do this until the second half. Otherwise it would likely not have been so close. Also, today I learned that Jayson Williams is a giant pos. Up there with Brett Lawrie and Jeff Samardzija.

I'll have my exclusive feature comprehensive coverage summary up sometime this week.

There was pretty much no chance they were gonna win today

Jayson Williams was a grade A douche. Good thing his team advanced though cause I'm sure he could really use the cash.

After the games, fans and teams alike would mingle out on the "concourse" for a while. Our PAK is out there waiting to chop it up w/Jake and the guys, but Rhona sees freakazoid bibby nearby and wants a picture and gives me her phone to take it. I was still salty about the game and didn't want to but figured I'd make the best of it so when it got to be Rhona's turn and she had him facing me - who was pretending to be oblivious to all of it - and demanded the picture get taken, I pointed at bibby and asked her "who's this?" He was oblivious to everything too and just kept on 3/4 smiling as I took the picture and then he presumably went off to eat 3 #longbones.

@dlew12 - when we went to the alumni thing friday, I wore that chicago flag pak head shirt you made me. Some old dude saw it and was asking me if the pak heads were new kstate logos and I told him kind of. Then he was gushing over the shirt and asking me if I got it through the alumni association. I told him no it's through goEMAW. He said "ugh."

No. The unintentional benefit is by being less organized early this year, it might end up working out better as far as getting people who can solidly commit later when summer schedules are better known. But I'm hoping a late start doesn't preclude getting Vegas; I'm not peoriaPAK'n.

TBT trying out an interesting end of game rule change to prevent fouling. I kind of like it.
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/19078511/zach-lowe-basketball-tournament-innovative-end-game-rule
The gist:
Elam landed on something more radical: eliminate the game clock from crunch time. Under Elam's proposal, the clock would vanish after the first stoppage under the three-minute mark in the NBA and the four-minute mark in NCAA games. Officials would establish a target score by taking the score of the leading team and adding seven points -- then restart the game without a clock. The team that reaches that target score first wins.
In simpler terms: If the Clippers lead the Jazz 99-91 when Rudy Gobert hacks DeAndre Jordan with 2:55 left, the game then becomes a race to 106 points. Utah must outscore the Clippers 15-6 to win.
-
That certainly is interesting
-
I hate that. The clock is a component of the game, I don't like eliminating a component of the game, during the game.

Dumbest idea since the 3-point shot.
With a game change that drastic, you can never compare today's game to yesteryear's. Also, officials become too involved in the game's outcome. They're too much part of it now, through non-calls and calls.
You want to improve the game of basketball? Eliminate the three-point line and do not allow players into the NBA who do not possess a college degree.
You're welcome.

A college degree? That would ruin college basketball. You really want coach Cal to have have those stud freshman for 3 to 4 years? Go watch women's ball if you want to see the same 4 to 6 teams at the top every year.

I've enjoyed picturing all the KU Karl's explaining to their wives why they are not going to Wichita this weekend anymore.

Former Wildcat D.J. Johnson took over as the team's general manager, assuming the role Jordan Henriquez held for years. Johnson even created a pseudo five-man board of directors to help construct the team.
"Three votes," he said, laughing, of what took to get voted on the team.
Last year, Purple & Black lost its opening round game on a last-second 3-pointer. It did not help that the team had only one sub available, due to logistical issues and scheduling conflicts. This year, Johnson constructed a 10-man roster. This includes seven K-State graduates in Johnson, Shane Southwell, Hopper, Thomas Gipson, Martavious Irving, Akeem Wright and Big Meat. Marquis Addison, Marcus Foster, Jevon Thomas and Vernon Vaughn round out the roster.
:Yuck:
-
They should let Foster play the Russell Westbrook role imo

vernon vaughn as in the guy that was on the football team for a bit? think i'd rather have marcus foster be the GM

big names don't always win in this thing...look at the Jackson, TN team...i'm guessing a big factor is how much they actually practice beforehand etc

here's our Xs and Os, 4 of our guys run down the court and stand under the basket. foster bombs a three and probably makes it. BUT, if he doesn't, one of our 4 guys gets the rebound and passes it out to him to bomb another one. it's absolutely fool proof.

We’re garbage. Fun to see them ball again during good stretches. Foster prob best on the court.

4500. WSU had 7500 I believe. I’d imagine the ICT pod of games was by far best attended.

The previous record for attendance was like 2500 I believe.

I just caught the end, but it looked like you could pick any seat down low. I’m sure with KU not making the weekend hurt attendance, but we have a ton of alums there.

When we went to it 2 or 3 years ago in Chicago, there may have been 500 people there? And that was with Jason Williams and Mike Bobby playing on the same team. Attendance has grown a ton that they even consider putting it in D1 college arenas

This lucky slop aside, P & B completely mismanaged the finish to this game, they played like idiots. They got to 57 and just chucked up a bunch of awful 3s and my guy Kam had a comically bad turnover right before that shot.
-
:lol:
-
We had like a three minute stretch of pretty good looking basketball. The rest was very unentertaining. Would have been cool to see Diarra and I was secretly hoping Henriquez would pull off his polo and throw on a jersey.

The finish to that game was not a great advertisement for the Elam Ending. That had to have taken a hell of a lot more than 4 minutes of game play.

I think it's his middle name. He started going by Henry five or so years ago. Wanted to separate himself from the impression people had of his younger self or something like that.

As pumped as I am about Jacob Pullen’s game winning three-pointer, I think I am more excited about Henry Walker coming back to play for EMAW. I always felt like he got F’d over by the NBA rules at that time and suffering a knee injury in his first year at K State. I honestly think he would’ve made a lot of money if he could’ve been drafted right out of high school instead of being forced to play a year of college ball.

Gip prob had to slim down and work on his face-up game to stay employed overseas. He was great in the low post Friday tho. Bill would benefit most from Mike being there. Let him play in shorter spurts w max effort. He doesn’t seem to be in game shape, but that’s cool cuz he’s Bill imo.

Leaving out anyone who transferred out on oscar and/or clearly isn't good enough, there really aren't very many options for the oscar decade who aren't already on the team.

Spradles and Southwell are both coaching at this point.

If they got sneed and brown to play I could get on board with stacked being used. As the roster is now it’s going to be an early exit.

1. My apologies! I didn't see that Kam was on the roster. It was last year he couldn't play. Glad to see that he is on the roster this year.
2. It has to do with whatever League you are in and if whether or not your playing rights are owned by another entity/team. Some guys wait an entire year after leaving the pro scene just to be safe so that way the don't get into any sort of legal trouble.

The few minutes of TBT that I've seen this year look physical. Gip and DJamer should do well with that.
