What??? What happened to your histronics about the sky beeing green? And its not a matter of running out of names, but finding the one that fits you perfectly.
There's one adjective we have yet to use.

Tastes nutty, dosn't it?

Wait a second, I just figured it out. You guys watched Blaine Gabbert against Illinois and are taking your frustrations out on me. I can understand that.

Can't even take a compliment can you? I was actually being serious but somehow you didn't think so. The sky would actually be yellow and not green, however it is still blue. Read my posts from the beginning of this thread and you will learn that my opinnion is based on my previous experiences at Memorial Stadium. My opinion may change the next time I am there, however, I hope that never happens and we keep our game at Arrowhead. Like I said before, it sounds like it is time to expand. If tickets are that hard to come by versus NOCO it seems logical to pump up those seat numbers to 70K at least.
I know those of you that want to talk football are waiting on that MRI down in Norman, OK. That KU/OU game in Larrytown will be a toss up in my opinion if Bradford does not play.
Richmond beat Duke last weekend at Duke so those of you going to that game can schedule an afternoon tee time because they suck. To bad they did not schedule a hoops game at halftime.
Baylor may spoil some seasons this year. They have a good QB so don't be to happy to get them back on your rotation next year. You are picking up OSU at a good time though. I think our game at OSU will be ugly this year.
What does Bricoe keep doing to get in the dog house? He is costing himself big money everytime he misses any time this year IMO.

Hard to tell if you're serious. Most just assume sarcasm.
We're putting in new scholarship suites on the east side which will bring the seat total by a few thousand.
Sucks for Bradford. I hope he's healthy by the time they come to town.
Duke looked to be a decent team coming in. They were improving and won some games last fall. Looks like they aren't developing quite as well as predicted. Southern Miss will give us a test at home. UTEP will be tough on the road.
Briscoe's suspension was a carry over from his spring suspension. Nothing new.

Guys, we have next to ZERO traffic on this board from posters from other schools and whether or not you agree with 96, he's trying to actually discuss some football, so let's not be a-holes like certain other boards. We NEED some good discussion on this board from opposing fans.

I personally believe that a good reason the 'traffic' is low on this site is because everyone with anything to say is a gold member and says what there is to say there. Even posts by fellow Jayhawks are often looked at and then ignored, probably because the discussion is far more interesting on the pay site.

When the guy keeps harping on the same point refusing to see facts put before him it gets a little old. Just keeps going back to "past experiences", even if they are from the Terry Allen years. Forgive me if it gets a little old having to talk about the same things over and over again with a guy who's last account of the game is from 8 years ago and trying to tell us we're wrong.

I understand the guy was wrong, but he did eventually admit it and tried to discuss some football. I've also seen this guy on some of the main boards and he's usually very level-headed and doesn't just flame anything KU. Responding with "Suck it slaver" or even calling him slaver comes off as very GPCesque.(suck it beaker, gayhawk, squawk)

+1 this guy is pretty ok he isn't like some MU posters of the past trying to get a gay reference in every post, he admitted when he was wrong.

A couple thoughts on Duke: They return their qb and I've heard they have some serious NFL talent on their D-Line. Ofcourse they lost to an FCS school so they aren't that good either. But keep in mind this is a team many expected to suprise in the ACC and I made a trip or two to their messageboards in the offseason and they were fairly certain they could sneak up on us and beat us.
The two real stories out of the Big 12 North from week one are Blaine Gabbert and Colorado.
I really want to see what Gabbert can do against Okie State, UT, Baylor and Nebraska.
Colorado was really interesting. The KC media made the claim all offseason that there was not much talent differential in the Big 12 North. Many favored Colorado based on schedule, they thought K-State had a chance to compete based on the perceived lack of talent. I have a hard time figuring why the "experts" couldn't differentiate between KU, MU, Nebraska and the rest of the big 12 North; imo the talent isn't close between those three and the bottom three. The vaunted CU ground game, which was supposed to "line up and run over people" (Phil Steele on 810 whb) produced 29 yards on the ground. I could be wrong but I'll go on record and say CU is the same team they've been the last three years.

GCHawk,
I think Gabbert, CU and Baylor are the big news out of week one. Baylor has a legit QB and for the first time in a long time I don't have a "W" on the schedule next to them. Hawkins in on the bigtime hotseat. Losses to MU, KU and NU might send him packing.
Did anyone that watched the MU v. Illinois game notice Gary Pinkel used the same defense Bill Young used against Brad Smith? Worked out the same way as well.
I have said it for nine months now and I feel even stronger about it now, our game at Arrowhead will be for the Big 12 North Tilte, sorry Huskers. Nebraska has to go to Larrytown and CoMo and I just don't see them winning either of those games.
KU minus eleven versus UTEP looks like a steel. I thought that line would be around 21.
We are expecting a near sell-out in CoMo this weekend against Bowling Green. They beat us the last time they visited, Gary Pinkel's first game as Tiger's coach.

I hear what you are saying. But I don't care if we have ZERO traffic. I'm not going to pretend that a guy who is a sarcastic condesending poster 95% of the time deserves to be humored 5% of the time.
I will take to task any fan base, no matter where they are fun, that comes on our sports board and takes the, "Oh how cute the KU fans think they know something about football" argument when they are confronted with facts, which is what this guy did.
I am sorry if I offended you when you tried to give me a compliment. But when you were confronted with the facts, given you by KU season ticket holders, you had a choice of how to react. We all know how you chose to react. So you can get down off that cross any time you see fit, slaver.
