Do you really have a list of 1-40+, or are you just randomly assigning numbers to things?

It's not random. It's art.

26 reminds me of an interview of Stanbot, who accompanied LHCBS to some type of combine or scouting trip.  He said LHCBS placed a premium on athletes with muscular butts.  I am not making this up.

This is great, but I'm sure the story involved multiple tangential life analogies and the phrases 'wait a minute' and 'guess what, K-State fans' were used repeatedly as well.

Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

What about hiring family?  Seems like there could be a limit of one family member allowed on staff or the team, but no more.   :dunno:

It's a good rule to have with Bill, but I wouldn't want to shoehorn ourselves into that rule forever. I mean, what if one day we hire Coach Gronk?

23. Allowing Tim Fitzgerald to be a part of the game-day radio broadcast.

6. Embracing Kansans or caucasians over better, more deserving players.

48. Cutting recruiting spending.

18. Tailgating that involves alcohol.

41. Allowing coaches to make decisions off the field.

37. The backwards powercat.

1. The idea that K-State must remain in its present state.

8. Treating all players with the same methods.

30. Losing the two good players in the state each year.

22. Believing players choose schools for reasons other than uniforms, style and playing time.

I like how these are released in no particular order much like the 16 virtues of wild wildcat football.
