Hird brothers recalled

Good article on the history of KU sports. Some people will criticize it for not being about today or yesterday, but many of us thank you for keeping us up to date on the events that brought us to today. Those same people who criticize you will do the Rock Chalk chant without a clue about its history or meaning.

Quigley's crash course

Outstanding story. The kind we need to see more.

KU releases 2010 football schedule

I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but the last time we broke in new quarterback(s), we lost six games, including Toledo. Reesing had his red shirt burned when he was used against Colorado. He started precisely zero games that year.

And don't think Georgia Tech is a gimme. They beat Georgia at Georgia last year.

Final answer? KU

This is gonna be exciting. But we will have to wait three months watching Reesing throw to Briscoe first.

It's great being a Jayhawk!

FINAL: Johnathan Wilson posts 133 receiving yards; Blue team takes 20-7 victory in KU Spring Game

Osage, it may have something to do with your location and web browser. I'm in Augusta, GA and the ad has decided I need to buy Penn State stuff. If you can figure that one out.

Sign creators ‘motivated to do something huge’

Just another day in Paradise!

It's a dirty job, but-----

The downside is that we don't get many KU games on television. And when KU is on a pay-per-view, all the online radio stations get blocked, so it bites having to "watch" a game on Yahoo or CNNSI. Gotta get a Slingbox for one of my nephews.

I do wish that Jayhawk Radio would shut up during the Alma Mater and the Rock Chalk Chant. Why do they have to share their insight of the game during what I consider one of the highlights?

Sign creators ‘motivated to do something huge’

I am sitting in my office on an island in the Caribbean looking at the John Brown picture posted prominently on the wall. My co-workers knew nothing of KU or Bloody Kansas before I posted it. All now hate Mizzou.

My congratulations to those responsible for their imagination and execution of the adaptation of the "Tragic Prelude" painting.

Rock Chalk!

Don’t forget Brown

Ah, memories! Vernon Vanoy played defensive end after Pepper Rodgers talked him into coming out for football. He was the 1966-67 Big 8 newcomer of the year in basketball. Vernon again played basketball during the 67-68 season. Unfortunately, due to bulking up for football and dividing his time between sports, he lost virtually all his touch.When he would get into games, he would scatter the opposing team, like a good defensive end. When he shot, there was no arch whatsoever. The ball would hit the back of the rim and bounce 15 feet high. The rim and backboard would shake from the impact.Even though his basketball production had fallen way off, he was a favorite with the students, who adapted the "Kill, Bubba, kill" chant from Bubba of Michigan State, Baltimore Colts and Police Academy fame to "Kill, Vernon, kill" for the Jayhawk basketball games. The sound level in AFH doubled when Vernon got into the games. Loved it!

Stuckey named all-Big 12 first team

I agree that Todd deserves better, but he did go global this week. I am spending this week across the Big Pond. Monday's European edition of USA Today had Todd's picture displayed above an article about KU whipping up on Misery. Congratulations to all who were honored. ROCK CHALK!
