This e-mail came across my inbox this morning. Priceless.

"... I am working with Bill Self, head basketball coach at Kansas, who is hosting his first annual Fantasy Camp April 12-15. This camp is for men ages 35+ who will be paying around $5,000 to come live the life of a Kansas Basketball Player. I wanted to see if [your business] would have an interest in discussing a sponsorship opportunity in which you would become the Title Partner of a Draft Party at Bill Self’s Home.

You would have the opportunity to entertain some of your top clients at Coach Self’s home while also networking with some top businessman in Kansas. Additional benefits include a spot in the camp and additional entertainment opportunities.

Please let me know if you have some time to discuss this sponsorship opportunity.

Thanks and look forward to hearing back"

I would like to go to Frank's camp and tell LaMont that I can get his ass canned if he thinks of crossing me.

It's a $5,500 camp. You spend $500 as a sponsor and a "spot" in the camp, which is another $5,000. So, basically, it's just an invite to go the camp at a $500 premium over retail.

I always thought that MLB fantasy camps would be cool. Not sure about bball though.

Wouldn't the life of a KU basketball player involve recieving $5,000 as opposed to paying $5,000?

I wonder if they ID everyone to make sure they're over 35.

I never use this phrase, but this is the so rough ridin' gay. Just ridiculous. "hey, let's play dress up and pretend."

how much would it cost to have the goEMAW pickup team to play a team of aging KU walk-ons who coach junior high and crap? Could someone just arrange that at the Lawrence Y or something?

If Frank hadn't scared him away, I would have suggested sending in Freddy Asprilla with a fake ID in order to get some of Bill's secrets. However, I'm not entirely sure Freddy wasn't 35 or older.
