Ok, so one of my friends is going to attend KU next year and i cant barely stand to hang out with him anymore. All he talks about is how excited he is for basketball and I'm all like,"who gives a eff, everyone knows football is king." To KU fans ig football is just 'meh' and they accept that they suck. I dont know what to do, give me ideas guys.

They have a bass pond in the middle of their campus. Most people there are HUGE fans of fishing. It rough ridin' kills them that we won the national championship last year.

The two tractor dealerships on East 23rd street in Lawrence (they are just West down the street from the HUGE Vanderbilts country western clothing store, Orchelen's and Tractor Supply Company, but East of the big Country Bar Honky Tonk place) are way better than any in Manhattan, and that's a fact.

If a ku basketball player so much as farts my news feed has 68 "Rock Chalks!!" on it in about 5 seconds.

The ku women's track team wins the National Championship and the only one who even mentions it is a ku alum in his 60's who has followed track and field for decades. Otherwise, nary a peep.

Meanwhile female EMAW nation is leading the news feed charge on the BoozeCats.

Football is a dying sport. Basketball is huge globally. Especially in the Netherlands.

I believe Football will always be big in America. There is too much money in it.

It's only big in Lawrence if there's a fluke schedule that allows the football team to not play anyone with a winning record, and pull out equally flukey victories.

Omaha, Neb., just up the road a bit more than two hours from what is affectionately known now as "Titletown" ... the city with a championship "Ring" to it. Championship rings earned in football, basketball and baseball.

OT: The official mouthpiece has picked up the "Titletown" standard.

If you're going to troll you have to make it believable.

I think there's one guy predicting KU to finish 8th and having a win against us. Can't remember who though.
