it's true what they say about the civil war being brother on brother.my grandfather fought for the free states in the civil war, his half brother fought for the south. so my grandfather shot his half brother in the face.
I heard from several reputable sources (A+) that we were even looking ahead to the Spanish-American War. Sucks to suck I guess Confeds.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning. They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

They were kind of like the first Al Qaeda.
My great grandfather had to hide from pro-slavers for several weeks.

In other words, it was a tongue-in-cheek historical reference.We here in the Free States call it the War of Southern Treason, which is accurate.lol While I am sublimely confident that I could steamroll you in a serious discussion about the era, I won't be commenting further on the subject for two reasons:1.) This is a sports forum2.) I refuse to be trolled.

Just watched 12 years a slave the other night. I thought it was strange how the plantation owner was yelling "war eagle" as he whipped that girl but I get it now.
I did some research on Memorial Day this year and found out that my great-great-great grandfather Marched to the Sea with his Ohio unit before he came to Kansas on the Homestead Act. What an awesome American life, huh?

If it were up to me, Wintz would be on a fan scholarship, full ride.
