Everybody Loves the Cats 2.0

[Belvis Noland]

I'd like to hear about fan encounters (mainly KU and MU) during Snyder's second go around.  Especially approaching the game tomorrow.   

As a KC catfan, it seems like Snyder and the Cats got crap on mercilessly by metro KU, MU fans and the local media.  soft schedule, too many jucos, snyder overrated, etc.   

It could be any number of factors but it just seems like KUers and MUers are resigned to our eliteness in '12.  My KU coworkers are telling me that they're rooting for KSU against OU.  This is just weird. 

Am I alone here, or has anybody else experienced this complacency and resignation amongst our old rivals?

My mom (t-shirt KU fan) was asking about the OU game, asked "do you think we will win?"  I was like "WE?"  GTFOOMF Mom.

People really love us right now.

It's natural that this should happen. When he came back and got us back to this point in like 3 years AGAIN, what else can the media say about him in terms of being overrated? Nothing.

Also, he was all grandpa-y and joke-y with the media while he was "retired," so they all think he's like their harmless neighbor with the immaculate lawn now, as opposed to Mr. Burns, Media Hater.

My wife, degreed squak, thinks I'm a total stud.

CEO of my place of work just walked through my office not three minutes ago and asked: "Do you think the cats will be undefeated come Monday?"
Me: "Heck yeah buddy."
CEO: "Gosh I sure hope so."

He's a shocker alum, and he wasn't exactly oozing emaw - so I'm not sure if this counts...


still...  pretty

It's weird to think of Shocker alumni existing during football season.

I feel like the KU fans are BITB'ing me, it's getting so bad with their compliments. 

Have a friendly wager with OU friend on this one, and he honestly seemed to be a bit concerned about losing.

ku fan invited me to his party this weekend. I declined, obviously, and he said "We can all watch the game together!". I was all
