Pretty solid answer.  You aren't Larry by any chance are you?

What do you do with a landline?  I don't get it.

slackcat and i don't have landlines, ww.  i think that'd probably bump our scores up a bit if we did.

Sorry to disappoint, I have a landline for business purposes, not that I ever use it for personal calls.  I don't know what question triggered the 8, maybe they're weighted.

This isn't about how much money KDOT is spending. It's because the Bank of KDOT has been funding the General Fund.

Need one of these:

Wet weather has hampered sod house construction, may have to opt for dugout.

Bill walks down the hall, his right hand clutching that morning's notes held close to his chest.  He reaches the elevator and pushes the down button, not giving it any thought, the same as he has done for the many years before.  He clears his throat and glances at his watch, afraid he might be late for his weekly meeting with Tom.  Not that he has ever been late but the fact that he might not show up 10 minutes early.  As his eyes come back up the elevator doors open and it's him again, John Curie, the AD, his "boss".  As if on cue, John flashes a smile at Bill, one of those "it's time to turn it on" smiles John is so adept at using at fund raisers.  Not relishing these encounters, Bill quickly steps in to the left of John, turns forward, and presses his floor button.
 

to be continued............

Meh, calls go both ways.  If any 2nd half 3s had gone in would have been a W in regulation.

I certainly wasn't suggesting that refs were a factor in the game.  I was lol'n at the theme of that game story and the idea that Weber "glared menacingly."  B-team beat writer crossover season.

I refuse to fill out survey to read article, just me.

WVU played zone in the 2nd and OT. Our zone o is putrid. Hence the shooting drop off.

Weber was all over the refs, as was huggy. Both were threatened with t's on several occasions. I'm guessing Weber didn't make tv. The Big 12 needs to address who it hires for officials if they give a crap about competition. It's been a major problem for several years, and it's getting worse. The tall skinny black bald guy is utterly incompetent. Like having a mentally handicapped person working in mission control.

True, he didn't.  They tend to show him very unfavorably when he does.

Just watching the game from home looks like a win if more consistent with FTs and 3pt shots, just stating the obvious.  Refs are a constant and hope impartial as to why I never really bitch too much about them.

Unfortunately, this was about what I thought this game would be.

Arkansas was a top 20 team in most advanced metrics and we weren't even top 50, so no meltdown from me.

The disappointment is taking a fantastic 2 year run, Big 12 title, competing for a national title, and fantastic facility upgrades and turning it into a season where we finish outside the top 75 of college football in advanced metrics just 3 years later.


Should be a crime

Just to add to what has already been said, props to Huggs for working the refs like a boss.  He was in their ears on every indecisive call while oscar stood on the sideline with his rough ridin' pie hole open.  He will not fight for his guys which pisses me off every time. 

1268
Thanks dax, I was needing that. :)

Bill is probably being all self righteous about it too.  "see, you don't HAVE to take coaches in the middle of a title run, they can come later."

Just to prove everyone wrong.

Srsly given up on the BV dream and settled on the assumption that the same gang will be back next year.  Truly the K-State way.

Will he get a neek?

Any rumblings on the Clemson boards?

Believe he's staying.



Good ol' tightwad Bill:

. Mike and Bob Stoops stumped for him to get the linebackers coach job, and Snyder reluctantly agreed after making Venables wait months for an answer. He finally hired Venables on an interim basis, paying him as a graduate assistant through the spring. When Snyder offered him a contract, it was for $33,000 per year. Mike Stoops was ticked that Snyder paid him so little, and when he walked down the hallway to confront Snyder about it, Venables stopped him. "NOOOOOOO!" he recalls screaming at Mike. "You're screwing this up for me!"
