Tm I’m worried about you make sure you drink plenty of water today. Do some walking and some stretches I don’t want you to hit the energy wall around your normal 8:30 bed time.. We need you tonight big guy…

i know. at my advanced years the clock ticks fast, bed comes early, and the heart can only take so much. i'll try to nap before Mass to ready myself though for this wildcat too-late-night.

I’m like tm, this late night stuff is beyond my capabilities as I move into my later years. Problem is, no matter how late I go to bed, I still wake up around 5 am. I usually stream Wyatt, Stan, and Matt W. postgame radio so it could be really late tonight.

Interesting Sagarin rankings. KSU dropped but BYU is still below KSU in Jeff's rankings. I still feel that KSU is the better team, and the Cats would likely win a rematch if we saw the Cougars in the Big 12 Championship game. Without the turnovers & stupid play-calling K-State wins that game even on the road.

unfortunately, it's only one shot per year in football, not a home & home, sans a championship rematch, e.g. tcu. our youngsters need to man-up. they cratered in provo under the pressure of a hostile environment and experienced team.

"Sports are a microcosm of society. We showcase how a group of diverse people, White, Black, straight, gay, religious or not, can come together united by something bigger than ourselves," McGraw’s statement read. "We are teammates, who are striving for the same goals, sacrificing personal accolades for the good of the group. We role model how to put ‘we’ before ‘me.’ But we are starting to lose the joy in team celebrations because we are being overrun by trolls who never played or coached the game at a high level but are suddenly self-proclaimed experts on what we do."

i remember muffin bringing her #11 irish into bram and completely dismantling deb's best team in the 2003 ncaa regionals. the cats were ranked #4 going into the game. it was no contest.

I was in the Bram for that one too - it was a shocker.

Not if you read her entire comment. Sure you can cherry pick and some does apply, but the rest of what she said is bs whiny crap.
She can pound sand in my book.
