Palo Alto is also pretty sweet..  Corvallis is still better than half of the truck stop towns in the Big XII.

Tempe is a great town.  A lot like Lawrence.  Probably a little hotter in the summers, though.

[sonofdaxjones]

I don't know if it'd be a factor at all (I'm sure it isn't), but Lawrence would certainly fit in with the other Pac towns.

I had no idea the other Pac towns had Orscheln's, Tractor Supply, John Deere, and Kubota dealers within a few blocks on one of their busier streets.
Interesting.

For instance Lawrence is basically just like Berkley, except completely opposite in every imaginable way. 

It reminds me of Palo Alto, if it were completely different in every single way and full of hicks with no money.

Eliminate the Space Needle from the equation and Lawrence is virtually a carbon copy of Seattle.

I am impressed how you can pull your boat up to ku's football stadium like you can at udub.

FFF's decoy thread is a bbs work of art, and is providing the most entertaining reading I've had in weeks.  Way too many self-affirmations and delusion to even begin to make fun of what's written there--it's like trying to drink a lake.

Well you can't.  Not exactly.  But you can park your car (Dad's old Toyota Avalon from highschool) near Memorial and walk down "the hill" to a blue pleather barcalounger. 

It's really all the same, though, if you're wearing a crimson cardigan adorned with a Jayhawk sticker/button.  I'm pretty sure that's what they do at Stanford, right?

Potter's Pond is really pretty much identical to Lake Washington, minus Mt. Ranier in the distance and the million dollar yachts.

The best parts were them referencing him to show that the PAC12 crowd wants them there.

Me too.  But I'm wildly handsome and cool.

With a handle like "Babytears" you sound less wildly handsome and cool and more child molestorish. Guess thats just the white trash in you.

White trash.  Just another Lawrence bi-product of being a bedroom community of Topeka.

Having spent a lot of time in PAC 10 country, you basically just described the Bay Area.  Except instead of the PCH and a quick  jaunt down to Monterey for an afternoon of golf at Pebble Beach, just substitute that for I-70 and the Super Walmart on Wanamaker.

No one watches K-State in the KC Market, in fact, I think all K-State games are blacked out in the KC Market.

WC Husker . . . 

would be a great addition to the board, but of little substance as NU is no longer a factor.

[sonofdaxjones]

Oh, I agree . . . fantastic BBS'ing, but you have to ask if anyone has seen him and Huskerpride in the same room at the same time.

[jtksu]

Just about every Nubb poster is interchangeable with any other.  I have yet to see one that was witty, funny, not still living in the 90's, self aware in anyway, etc.

shazbot! JT, you just described yourself

to see tucks in their natural habitat, either visit www.gopowercat.com or read any post by jtksu

I always enjoy picking apart the ku tuckville talking points that they're hammering on right now in their "we had options" thread.

-ku is a large and diverse university they claim:  kulc Fall 2010 total Enrollment: 26,266 (18,147 resident, 8,119 non resident)  K-State Fall 2010 total Enrollment 23,588 (17,170 resident, 6,418 non resident).

% of Enrollment listed as non-white/unspecified:  ku 24%  K-State 21% 

Total enrollment from the 2 largest minority groups in the United States:  African American- ku 858  K-State 993.  Hispanic- ku 1,193  K-State 1,077

International Students:  ku 2,135 K-State 1,812 

ku has a lot more diversity in its cirriculum offerings, K-State is just an agriculture college:  21,333 out of 23,588 students at K-State in the Fall of 2010 were not enrolled in the College of Agriculture.

you obviously have no idea what "great addition to the board" means.  of course today is tuesday which is pretty much known as opposite day. of course, you posted that on july 30th which wasn't opposite day.  maybe you knew i would read it on opposite day, not sure.  either way, you couldn't have been more wrong.  thx.

[deputy dawg]

Had a beer with a ku friend yesterday, and he told me that the ku message boards were on fire with discussions about how closely tied ku and K-State would be in any potential conference realignment.

Well done, FFF.

Seems he hasn't quite lost it all. . .yet.

[sonofdaxjones]

Just a classic thread in kutuckville . . . such anger.

[deputy dawg]

someone needs to start a pac-10 sock that totally rags on ksu and eggs them on. i will do it.

OMG, good job.

That thread is up to 27 pages of rib-splitting self-validation and self assurances of superiority.  Man, those guys sure know how to get excited.
