this va tech stuff has some serious potential for classic kstate fan butthurt. we'll be butthurting over it for years.

Meh...I'd be a lot more butthurt if everyone in the world didn't think it was a joke. When the entire college football community is vocally butthurt for you, it's a lot easier to sit back and enjoy the love.

That helped me get over it.

Well, at least as much as I will ever get over it.

It's harder to enjoy the love when it's so rough ridin' costly to the university. Is it a better match up? Yes. Better location for our fans? Yes. But the financial ramifications for our school and our conference are substantial.

Best since 20/10/4

I still haven't completely got over the 169/170 thing. I really, really melted down about that.

I bet all of you "I'm not butthurt" types like Huggs.

Buncha clowns.

I'm pretty butt hurt about it and have no problem admitting it.

I am incredibly butthurt.

I just watched us lose a chance to DOMINATE a team who really has no business in a BCS bowl, let alone the top 25. What did we get in return? A chance to DOMINATE a team who has no business in the cotton (gross) bowl, let alone the top 50.

Can't understand how we can feel butthurt about Sugar Bowl. I mean yeah, the numbers say we should have got it. The talking heads think we should have got it. But there were just too many epic wins this year to even care. Miami, Baylor, A&M..... and EKU.

I mean seriously, we almost lost to EKU. The Cotton Bowl is a rough ridin' miracle.

Seriously Abe? So if you started at a company sweeping floors and worked your ass off for 40 years up the ladder, finally getting your shot at pres of the company and the boss passes you over to hire is 24 year old son, you're gonna say "man, i'm so lucky. i started out sweeping floors, i should just be thankful to have a job"??? I'd say that would make you a loser, Abe. No disrespect.

We deserved the rough ridin' Sugar Bowl I don't care how rough ridin' close EKU played us.

While I don't agree with your post, Abe, I don't think you are a loser.

Just wanted to clear that up.

ha, no janitor is working his way up anywhere remotely close to President. Maybe if I got passed over for head janitor.....

In that case, the Son of the President of the Company would be rightfully butthurt. If you're going to do nepotism...do it big.

Actually I was pretty pissed off about that too until an hour or so ago. Currie was on with BITB and talked about how it's not much of a financial windfall anymore. It used to be huge, but they changed the rules for conferences that get 2 schools into the BCS. His example was that if one team in the BCS gets $22 million, the second school only gets like $6 million. After you get done paying travel costs, etc. and then split the remainder 10 ways, it's not that much more than going to a non-BCS bowl. It's more...but it's not significantly more.

Shacks · « **Reply #40 on:** December 08, 2011, 04:33:26 AM »

I'm butthurt, but the amazing BBS'ing over the last few days has helped make up for it. I doubt we achieve this level of BBS'ing if we were playing against Michigan or Virginia Tech.

Dennis Dodd said it was because they didn't want to select a new team they hadn't had before what with all this BCS Title Game nonsense they'll be doing a week later. I'm sure that means somebody was paid off under the table.

Is Lew giving fellatio on a consulting basis?
