Does goEMAW have enough cash reserves on hand to buy the rights and name it Fatty Memorial Stadium or are the 1% mods just going to keep sitting on that cash pile and collecting interest?

beautiful day out, stadium webcam shows no one out there working. maybe they are trying to beat the lunchtime rush at la hacienda though, so i might be too hard on these guys

how much do the new club seats they're building cost? it doesn't look like there's many of them.

They got back from lunch and they are hard at it. Two track-hoes and a backhoe all moving.

Damn ice machine still won't keep ice though.

Maybe there's a drifter with a shiv in the broken ice box.

Why are construction crews in Manhattan so f'n slow? I worked on a site in KCK where they built a 7 story hospital building in under a year yet it takes us a year just to build a parking garage???

Have these guys ever built anything before or are the Townies just try to sabotage the school?

It's hard to recruit good construction talent to Manhattan.

The definition of substantially done will be enclosed areas with folding chairs and air ducts hanging from non tiled grids.

They'll have to bribe someone to get temp COO's for every game day in 2013.

The way the basketball training facility has drug on and on and on and on, and nearly every other K-State (with noted exceptions) construction project is testament to this reality.

At current pace, the BTF will be on the downward run to 2 years before completion, a 50,000 square foot facility, it isn't a Bio-Level 4 lab.

Heard Frank kept yelling at the the sift leads for taking state mandated breaks and lunches, and Jamie Vaughn suspended the Sheetrock crew for 2 weeks because of improper use of a claw hammer.

The fact that all the foremen in the job trailer had their cell phones confiscated last week didn't help.

Too think, Stanford built a brand new stadium in between football seasons.

They must have better access to hard-working labor.

Who is the contractor? I mean, you fire foremen that can't be trusted, you don't take their cells.

Is K-State trying to do things on the cheap? I don't think we're cutting corners on the actual facility itself, but maybe we're trying to save money by reducing the size of the construction crews? It'll take a little longer to get built, but when it's done it will be as nice as a facility that was built in half the time...?

Poll

Will the "cool" Pinstripe Bowl K-State be on the new field at BSFS?
