It's pretty obvious that the KSU Geography program is a complete failure.

LOLLERS!  Is Elwood on this board, or do we have an amazing cosmic coincidence here?


Also... :embarrassed: trim won't be at the game so no flag.

Oh, for PETE'S sake, this isn't about love of country. It is about love of Louis and Denis.

Also, apparently Mitch is never going to let Rich Zvosec off the hook for thinking PR is a foreign country.

Puerto Ricans are international players. 

Rich Zvosec is correct and Mitch Holthus made an ass of himself by correcting a statement that was correct.

Okay.  I misrepresented Mitch's position.  He said that Zvosec thought you needed a passport to go to PR.  You don't.  

BTW, people born in PR are US citizens.  It's an unincorporated territory of the United States.  It's not a foreign country, although there may be those trying to achieve that.

So PR players may be "international players" for purposes of the NCAA, but Puerto Rico is not a "foreign country" in the way that most people would use that phrase.

They are not from a foreign country the way ANY people would use the word.

I don't think you misrepresented Mitch's position.  I heard it and I think Zvosec called Denis and Lu "international players" and then Mitch tried to make a funny about passports implying that Zvosec didn't know it was part of the US. 

BTW, I didn't see it mentioned anywhere, but Clemente was the #1 pick in the Puerto Rican pro league rookie draft last week.  http://www.latinbasket.com/Puerto-Rico/basketball.asp?NewsID=183986

Shouldn't be long before he's on the national team.

i mentioned it, goddamnit.


the whole unfunny mitch/"coach" passport thing goes back to a previous kstate game they called where "coach" made an offhand comment that holthus refuses to let go.  i can't recall for sure, but i think "coach" did actually say passport once upon a time.
