Chalmers hits course for fundraiser

truehawk...

i agree completely! i remember when watching that feature live, my wife was floored with their arrogance. she pointed out that even most "normal cocky athletes" at least fake it and say the right thing. i thought that was so funny and true that i went back to watch it again. i think it is funny when the self proclaimed "high and mighty" are humbled by their own weaknesses. i think it is only sweeter that they were humored that it could ever cost em!

P.S. i bet rose laughed the same way when someone pulled him to the side and said, "derrick, think about what you're doing... if you have someone else take your SAT, it will surely catch up to you eventually"

Chalmers hits course for fundraiser

tennesseest...

i watched the game just the other night with my son.... WHAT A GAME AND WHAT A SHOT!!!

by the way.... i think this is funny to go back and look at this feature that was done on memphis just before the final four.

i love it that they were so cocky sitting around laughing that people were questioning their free throw woes.... i wonder if they ever go back and watch this clip now?

Jayhawks lacking minutes

i don't ever recall asking for your sympathy? it seems misplaced to compare this with driving down the road passed "unsavory images". i don't know of anyone that drives down the road for the sole purpose of looking at pictures of women. however, i do know that there are LOTS of people who get on the internet for the sole purpose to look at those types of pictures of women. therefore, it seems more possible for someone looking over my shoulder to mistake what i am looking at on a computer screen. when you go to a page on a computer screen, you seek out that page. when you pass a hooter's billboard, you are simply passing by it to get to your destination. and you're right, my eight yr old nephew doesn't think a think of it. he can differentiate between things that happen to just be around us as oppose to actually seeking out certian content. all i was saying, is that i would hate for him to walk behind me and (without knowing that i was simply reading about KU basketball), wonder what kind of content is uncle is seeking out. it really isn't a huge deal, and if it doesn't change, i am fine with that. i was simply making an observation and i know that sometimes those that do "manage this site" read these comments and they may like to know that.

Jayhawks lacking minutes

From Left Field...

Can we find some less provocative advertising to post on these articles? My wife keeps peeking over my shoulder asking me, "what are you looking at?!". She knows that I am only looking at KU news and doesn't care, but still... I was on vacation the other day and was checking kusports.com. My nephew (8) was in the hotel room with me and I have to guard the screen from him in order to read about KU Basketball? Doesn't make sense.

I know that several of the college aged readers think I am being lame. I trust that those guys can find PLENTY of other site's that provide that type of material.

I am not coming to this site to see some busty number asking me to go on a journey. The only journey I am interested in is a journey to the 2010 National Championship...

Can this somehow be changed?

Stepping up

hawklin,

i never capitalize when emailing, blogging, posting comments on websites. maybe i am lazy, right?! i just find it humorous that someone logs onto the INTERNET (look out, caps) and complains about having to click on a link. LOL!!! then, to top it off, in calling the LJW stupid, you show your own stupidity.

everyone knows that this is the SLOWEST time in sports and so journalists are going to need to find filler. i have no problem with LJW posting a link to an outside article. anyone that can't be okay with that is stewpid : )

Stepping up

hawklin....

for someone who is criticizing LJW, you may want to learn when to use "awfully" as opposed to "awful" and "too" as opposed to "to". "awfully nice words" and "...too lazy to write". if you insist on calling LJW stupid, make sure you don't come off looking like a 5th grader. i find it funny that someone complaining about having to click on a link is calling the provider of the story lazy. how much effort does it take to click a mouse?!

KU basketball alumni outlast current players, 67-63

for all the people who have been ripping on X and CJ, please take your cue from Self as to whether or not we should be worried that they are not here....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hM7MoO...

note: Self mentions that nothing is going to just be given to X, he will have to work for it. but Self appears pretty confident that X WILL work hard. Anyone that has ever seen much of X knows he is a hard worker and a good kid.

i am sure that X is certain he will play tons of minutes. i am also sure that X knows that he will play those minutes because he is willing to put in the work to earn them.

i only post this because for some reason, people who call themselves KU fans get on this board and rip into X as if he is an arrogant prima dona.. if they had a clue, they would know he is not.

KU hoops players welcome Johnson

in the video post you can get an even better feel of what a great attitude EJ has. he points to his respect for the coaching staff as to why he came to KU. if you watch the video you get the feel that EJ will present himself to the coaches as a blank slate of modeling clay and allow them to mold him into the best player he can be. can't wait to see the process unfold! welcome EJ!!!!

Gary Bedore's KU Basketball Notebook

Seriously people.... this whole Henry drama talk is getting old!!! Watch the video. Self looks about as worried as Tiger Woods' banker. this is really getting to be so stupid. the kid stays in his hometown to get his braces removed and all the talk about his commitment come out again. it reminds me of the irrational post's back when he was weighing his options in April, "If X were coming, he would have committed a long time ago... blah, blah, blah, blah"

give it a rest about X and CJ. they are coming! when Self starts to show signs of worrying, then i would worry. but when he is laughing and joking about the status of an incoming recruit, i would think it will be okay.
