Don't do it guys. We are better than that. And Turner deserves some respect.

I was thinking about this the other night and decided we definitely should not do it, even though it will be very easy and anyone who did it could definitely get away with it and have a lot of fun.

Just because something is easy and hilarious doesn't mean it should be done. I am assuming we won't even touch them.

We have passed ku long ago.

I don't think I could bare to see Turner's face if we had done such a thing.

Dave Wooderson · « **Reply #5 on:** October 21, 2011, 10:16:03 AM »

Already did that when I was 21, no reason for me to do it again. As for you young whipersnappers I would be all

if you did it for old times sake.

If Mitch is on the radio call and he says something about winding it on up or betting the farm, we HAVE to do it.

p.s. Come back Mitch

I for one think it absolutely should be done. Enjoy it, bask in it, etc.
You only go 'round this crazy merry-go-round once.

Doing so would nullify a win and give us 14-1-1 rather than 15-1.

so...no, denied.

KU should def do it though.

There is absolutely nothing anyone would do about it and you will get off scott free but that doesn't make it right. No matter how much of a hero your friends think you are. Just say no.

There is a simple cost/benefit analysis that I hope every young KSU fan makes before tomorrow's game.

Would you be able to tell your kids/grandkids that you threw a

in the face of ku on their own turf and got off scott free? Sure, you would undoubtedly would.

But would you be responsible for a good, God fearing man being sad? Most likely. You gotta do the math guys.

Ultimately, KU fans are our Kansas brothers. Do you want to be personally responsible for making them as a fanbase look like absolute dogshit? Think about that.

Sure it would be fun for a mob of pak'd up cats to carry the torn down goal posts to Potter's Lake and throw them in. But the next week a bunch of KU workers would have to work extra hours on a monday evening fishing them out. Think about what you are doing before you act cat fans.

Some people just don't get the concept of Team. State. Conference. Sad, really.

Could be tempting though, just think by the end of the game we'll outnumber the few diehard KU fans that are still there. JUST SAY NO FOR GOD's SAKE!!!

Overlooked point. They invite us into their quaint stadium, allow us to be the majority of fans there for free and basically treat the game like a home game but you want to humiliate them AND add to their work load?

WTF guise? I will pretend we never met, thank you very much.

EllToPay · « **Reply #18 on:** October 21, 2011, 12:01:48 PM »

Sure, you could look like heroes with thousands of K-State fans cheering you on from the stands. And yes, after tearing the eff out of their field you could head down to Mass Street for celebratory beers at Abe and Jakes, take shots with your emaw bros at Brothers, then tear up some pizza at the Wheel. But what about what you're leaving behind? You'll have Jayhawk fans watching you with tears streaming down their eyes.

Do you want that Wildcat fans? Do you?

Not to mention them giving us an opportunity to watch the #11 team in the country play a football game in the state of Kansas for a low, low rate of only $80. Some people just don't appreciate anything.

It's like at some point you have to just be the better man...ya know? The fact that there is nothing they can do to prevent it, AND the fact that you'll suffer zero negative reprocussions for doing it, makes it all the sweeter that you did NOT do it.

It's like on Schindler's list when Ray Fines character, the camp director, decides to "pardon" a jewish dude instead of blasting him in the face. If you were the director of a camp full of jayhawks, would you pardon them or blast them in the face?

Hey now. Cats fans will always support Lawrence businesses when necessary. It's not just what 1%ers do.....It's what Kansans do

Do men/women lust after men/women who do things like this? Unquestionably. Does it make it right? No. No it doesn't.

I hope all you Cat's fans in attendance this Saturday aren't persuaded to embarass our university by tearing down the goal posts. First off, I know fun is just fun, but you have to think of the bigger picture here. If you guys stoop to this level there is NO DOUBT you'll get on Sports Center, but is that the kind of attention we want here and K-State University, the first public university and flagship university of Kansas? We have to say no to temptation, even though the upsides outweigh any imaginary downsides.

wes mantooth · « **Reply #24 on:** October 21, 2011, 12:10:24 PM »

I really enjoy the sportsmanship EMAW is showing in this thread. I've gotta tell you, not many people would pass up the opportunity of a lifetime to do something so incredibly rare, with no reprocussions. Possibly a life changing moment, something that will put you in the history books. Absolutely no risk, unlimited reward. Does it make it right though?
