Ellis misses two bunnies

I talk to myself all the time

Mason is our leading defensive rebounder according to Keegan

I'm here hello!!

Perry struggling to finish!

@Crimsonorblue22

I'm still gonna talk to myself

@wissoxfan83 You're never alone when you talk to yourself !

We need a little hide yo kids Dynomite here.

Here!

@wissoxfan83 I thought u were weird!

@brooksmd You finally sent your guests away so you can be sociable with us again?

@Crimsonorblue22 Perry 1-4 at the stripe.. Bragg & Mick first 2 of da bench

@wissoxfan83 Only some. Still have the son, his wife and granddaughter from down under.

Well that's good, they're more important than KU hoops!

Mick wit da stick back & Svi off da bench

Loyola piling up the fouls early on.

Half way mark we'll see Diallo.

4-13 from the field ugh...

We have missed a ton of bunnies, literally.

CHEICK TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@wissoxfan83 jet lag?

Standing O for Chieck

@Crimsonorblue22

I was wondering if that's true. We're playing like crap

Standing O for Chieck

Playing down

I think we're starting to see Svi's potential

@Crimsonorblue22 When did they come back from Hawaii?

Perry will get it together. Lucas has bad toe

Sloppy

@brooksmd think they left fri. So here sat? Not sure

@brooksmd Not sure but TV said they didn't practice until yesterday.

Everyone's trying to block the shot

I could definitely see Diallo breaking the school blocks record, but he'd have to stay three years. No way that happens unless he gets injured.

Diallo getting his name in the stat sheet in lots of good and bad ways.

I thought self said cheick had a great practice sun, not so great yesterday.

@nwhawkfan then he wouldn't get record if he was injured😬

All this "fool's gold" is going to make my head explode.

@Crimsonorblue22 I'm thinking more along the lines of a late-season injury that might give him second thoughts about going to the draft.

@brooksmd

I just looked it up. KU is ranked 2nd in the country at 46.5% and that percent has risen this game. Pretty amazing.

@brooksmd stop!

Some oops are kind of ho hum and then there's that kind.

What the crowd gets into the game when a dunk is made?

Who knew??

Well💩

Plays some dang D and pass the ball around

Bill needs to remind them what they just did in Maui.

Perimeter D, anyone ?

@Crimsonorblue22 I agree. Dribble dribble shoot is not an offense unless you are in the NBA.
Defense they all need to be benched!! Talk about slow to close out. Slow feet.

I hate it when people say "he's got to make that shot." and I just siad it when Svi missed that 10 foot jumper in the lane.

i see we're playing with our food....

one of the nights when you find five guys that can play and leave them in. sheesh.

Hunter is going to find the bench if he doesn't learn to throw it back outwit all out post guys are black hole

Nice pic perry

Selden's 3% is 58%, 4th best in the land.

More like it.

No help

dang adidas

Mari!

Free throws😡

Not gonna be a nice half time in the locker room

I predict the second half is much more beautiful than the first.

Heading to the beer fridge just in case I'm wrong.

Yeeeeesh........ another damn Patriot league upset if we're not careful.

Maui hangover much? That was about as bad a half as you can have and still be winning. These guys took this team for granted big time. 8 missed FT, 57 missed layups..

@DanR Me too. Beer fridge.

@BeddieKU23 one rebound that I remember

Gurley said Self sulks to the locker room & it will not be a fun atmosphere in there tonite...imagine that !?%$#@!

I expected an easy game but at least this is another humbling moment for these guys. Last week is over and no game can be taken for granted as they all showed they did

Same thing happened to Kentucky last night against Ill state. Tied at the half, 12 point win in the end.

@wissoxfan83 no Ulis

A lil acting?

Good job Mari!

Self must have said something.

@wissoxfan83 I bet!

@KUSTEVE you watching on line?

Still not passing the ball. If anything it's a two man game.

Would like to see it swing from side to side and open things up. Easy to guard your man when they just stand there watching the game with you.

@wissoxfan83 yes espn3 sucks tonight...

@KUSTEVE Interesting, because ESPN3 is working great for me.

@wissoxfan83 i'm having flash drive crashes

@wissoxfan83 Me too. For a change.

Okay, just back from cleaning up kitchen and missed first 4 minutes of this half. Anything exciting I need to go back and watch later?

@wissoxfan83 Ditto. Seems to be working okay tonight.

@brooksmd I can always get it, but the picture is usuallly fuzzy. Tonight, clear as a bell, have it hooked up to the TV.

@KUSTEVE espn3 working on my appletv fine tonight. Probably a few seconds behind the live feed but oh well. Better than the constant buffering on the roku

Can't get to tube or pc! Be my eyes!

@wissoxfan83 You running hdmi from puter to tv?

@jaybate-1.0 We've been hiding our eyes for a good portion of this one.

@jaybate-1.0 If you had seen first half you'd wish you were blind.

FLUSH !!!

Nice play Wayne!

Just took a look at the NBA scores. Sixers may actually win a game, against Kobe & the Lakers no less. The NBA equivalent of KU-K-State foolball.

Bad play wayne

@brooksmd

Oh shizzle!!!

Bad play, or just shots not going in?

DIALLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good play wayne

Was about to say that no one misses when Diallo is in the game for him to get a board.

@jaybate-1.0 Yes

CHEICK!!

@brooksmd :laughing:

Cheick is setting some nice screens

@jaybate-1.0 Diallo just got his first jam.

@brooksmd

Yessssss

Is BG on the bench?

@Crimsonorblue22 yep

Score?

@Crimsonorblue22 saw him sitting next to Lucas and aaron miles earlier

@Crimsonorblue22 Him and LL sitting together.

@jaybate-1.0 57-39

@wissoxfan83 59

@KUSTEVE your e3 feed must be a minute or so behind cause when I posted flush above that was for Chieck then Wayne followed with another Chieck just scored again off the rebound

That's cool

bragg diallo svi... young team out there right now.

Glad Vicks in!

I thought there was a barber chair in the new apartments?

Team barber maybe?

@globaljaybird I am having flash drive issues

and vick and graham now!

Oh boy! Getting fun

Another dunk plus a block !

Diallo a keeper?

@jaybate-1.0 oh yeah!

diallo has some freakily long arms

@DanR Vick too

59-41....loyoya just went to a 3/4 court press....

@jaybate-1.0 You betcha. Little nervous when he entered game first half, but he'll soon get it all figured out. And another flush for Diallo. Followed with a block at other end.

@KUSTEVE I have 610, Davis $ Gurley but no coat hanger..,

It's like Cheick Slamma Jamma

@globaljaybird see how he shoots ft's

How many blocks does he have?

I'll say it now that Diallo gets T'd up this year.

@jaybate-1.0 If a frog is waterproof then I'd say YEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!

Cheick just needs time

@Crimsonorblue22 At least 2 that I've seen.

@Crimsonorblue22 I can remember two blocks, but I haven't seen every second either.

He said he's been working on them

he had like 6 months to practice free throws

@DanR 7' 4" wingspan...

@globaljaybird Wow.

@Crimsonorblue22 Don't think Bill will use the quick hook on Cheick like he has with other freshmen.

@brooksmd no

@DanR Somebody posted a pic somewhere with him holding a ball in each hand and arms out. Amazing length.

@Crimsonorblue22 Hey Crims is Chieck wearing #13?

@globaljaybird yes

Glad Svi doesn't lose his confidence

@brooksmd I saw a photo of his hands.... looked like he was holding a softball instead of a basketball.

@brooksmd self loves hustle!

@Crimsonorblue22 Who was the last guy to wear that? Any clue? Just curious...

@globaljaybird wilt

Svieet

@DanR

No need to chuck threes right now, guys,

Mick with a block.

@globaljaybird said:

@Crimsonorblue22 Who was the last guy to wear that? Any clue? Just curious...

Jeff Boche wore 13 I'm pretty sure

Has Lucas played tonight?

@wissoxfan83 said:

Has Lucas played tonight?

Out with sore foot

@Crimsonorblue22 Seems like there have been other 13s since Wilt.

@Crimsonorblue22 I could be wrong but I thought Walt Wesley wore 13 also. Will have to research that if I ever have time from cooking & cleaning & laundry & ironing & working & ... did I say dish washing & ironing & .......sheeeesh...

LOL Mason

@globaljaybird u threw it out there!

will not see mason's silhouette on a shoe

@globaljaybird sorry about all that, I'd help!

@DanR good one

Wayne, #4 percent shooter in the land

Mason on ESPN NOT Top Ten.

@nwhawkfan ha ha!

Cheick just made top ten

Crazy fun

Hey all! Been unavoidably detained...how's Diallo doin?

Guess I spoke too soon about a good ESPN3 feed...just lost the audio.

Another flush for Chieck ! 11 pts all 2 nd half so far plus 5 boards

Vick!!!

I love them having fun!

@VailHawk He's lived up to expectations. Exciting to watch. And he just styled for the cameras on the fast break dunk

This team just got a lot more fun to watch. Sorry, Jamari.

Chieck's gonna have to join the plumbers local if he keeps this up. Yeah !!

@nwhawkfan Me, too on espn3 feed

@DanR

Don't you think jam tray and Lucas still need majority of minutes?!?!

@DanR I think Jamari played better tonight than he has all year. He knew he could go 100mph and Diallo would be there to have his back and take over.

The pressure is off the 5 by committee guys watch them all play more free and relaxed.

@VailHawk uh, no. Some Mickelson is Ok though.

@VailHawk Sarcasm?

The guys out there just now, Devonte, Svi, Vick, Diallo, and Hunter is a long long lineup...

@brooksmd

You know me!!!

@Second-Prize And youthful.

I hope Cheick can repeat that play against kensucky

Svi looks good too, doesn't back down

@wissoxfan83

I'm in favor of beating Kensucky

What happened in the first half? I missed it. Announcers suggest it wasn't lovely.

@tundrahok Missed a lot of bunnies and gave up a bucketfull of 3's which kept it close, 4 points I think.

BG didn't stand up

Just joined...good thing we haven't needed FT's for this game. But otherwise, looks like RB's 6 is about par for the course. and shooting is good from 3 at around 41% but overalll at 50% is what, below average?

Damn nice debut for Chieck tonite ..,

@wissoxfan83 Thanks. Complacency's a bitch.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

BG didn't stand up

Huh?

NICE JOB BIG FELLA !

@VailHawk when cheick went down line, everybody up but him

@Crimsonorblue22

That's disappointing

@VailHawk that's bg

@Crimsonorblue22

That's how you stay suspended for six games. I really thought it would get reduced once we got back from 808 but maybe not

@Crimsonorblue22 BG needs an attitude adjustment... More laps does wonders ...

We can win without BG I think?

@wissoxfan83 he's losing ground!

Nice second half. Need to pick it up earlier next time.

Anybody get post game? Love bud stallworth. He's blunt!

@wissoxfan83 no doubt sox but I hate to throw the baby out with the bath water... However that's what he acts like.

@globaljaybird

[Like this kind?](https://m. ↗

@Crimsonorblue22 Nope, ESPN in chrome with a VPM type blocker to get around the blackout.

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoyed chatting. See you on some other random blog!

@wissoxfan83 Thanks for starting this mess tonite and chatting to yourself until others showed up. Good job. BTW, did you answer my question about how you linked your puter to tv? Use hdmi?

Let the Cheick headline puns begin...

Time for me to Cheick out. RCJH !

@globaljaybird Or a transfer. Not sure how many more chances HCBS is gonna give him before he pulls the rug.

@nwhawkfan Good one.

What does gg stand for?

@brooksmd

Time for refreshment?

@VailHawk You betcha. Special for Cheick debut.

@brooksmd

Self is gonna pull his rug?!?!

@VailHawk ha

@Crimsonorblue22

My wife thinks it's real....me not so much....

@VailHawk I knew I shoulda been more detailed on that for some people.

@VailHawk I think it's real too.

@Crimsonorblue22 I think it's in between. In between a rug and plugs.

@brooksmd wouldn't surprise me if he already has...Svi is getting good minutes & really improving especially taking the rock to the rack off the dribble.

@Crimsonorblue22

Maybe the guys are just jealous!

@brooksmd what the heck is that?

@globaljaybird He did look strong on some of those drives. Something BG can't do. Plus he can play D. Another BG can't do.

We have a lot of guys that can play, not sure what coach will do

@Crimsonorblue22 Hair plugs for men.

@brooksmd not what u said

@VailHawk Not me. I look at it as the more intelligent I get the less room there is for hair. :wink:

@brooksmd 😳

@VailHawk How the slopes up in yur country?

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@brooksmd not what u said

About what?

@Crimsonorblue22 Youngest son enjoying Pelicans game in private suite tonite. Said it was that or go shoot clays with me in the morning. I'd rather shoot clays than go to a NBA game. Even in a private suite.

@brooksmd I'm w/your son. Who'd they play?

@Crimsonorblue22 Who cares?

@brooksmd Could be fun to shoot clays in a private suite.

@Crimsonorblue22 Memphis

@tundrahok Have to be quick on the trigger. And real short barrel.

@brooksmd grouch! Isn't that Mario's new team?

@brooksmd

Chalmers is in Memphis now!

Been snowing a lot...Vail opened more of mountain than normal

@VailHawk Ok, here goes. Damn climate change. lol

@brooksmd

I went to game a few years ago...Benson needs to put $ into arena...or maybe he already has?

@tundrahok

PHOF!!!

@VailHawk I may be wrong but believe the arena is owned by the state just like the the dome.

@brooksmd

So you're part owner?!?!

@VailHawk Yeah. That's why I get free tickets to all events just like the politicians.

@brooksmd I wouldn't if they played at all if they served Henessy... They could play dominoes or radios for all I care...

@globaljaybird I think you've hit the CB a little tonite. :smile:

@brooksmd Lookout you old dog, stirring that pot 'll get the teat in the ringer...

@globaljaybird Glad you're still here. Opinion on Toro products.

@brooksmd Nah, had a couple small nips & a red beer before I cooked supper but not since. Think I will before I retire for da night though. Mama been talkin in her sleep a lot fr the pain meds so I haven't slept well for about a week now . Broken humorous bone, dislocated elbow, & 2 torn ligaments. 6 weeks in a brace minimum. I gotta step up to the plate & earn my keep now.

@brooksmd What type ?

@globaljaybird Ouch!

@globaljaybird u need brooks to help u out

@globaljaybird how did she do it?

@brooksmd

My dads Toro snowblower from 1968 still goin strong!!!

!image.jpeg ↗

@Crimsonorblue22 Did a header or a bad curb& landed on the elbow.

@globaljaybird eww

@globaljaybird were u there?

@globaljaybird I got tired of different gas mixtures for different equipment so bought a 4 cycle Toro weedeater about 3 yrs ago. Appears of have lost compression. Son had a Toro self propelled mower that has been nothing but a pain in the but. He's going to a Honda. And I think I'll join the bandwagon and go with an Echo weedwacker.

@brooksmd I really left after posting, but yes, I hooked the old puter who's screen doesn't work anymore to the TV and chatted here on my newer laptop. When the ESPN 3 is working well like tonight it turns the tube into high def looking picture.

@brooksmd

Low end Toro is no bueno. Move up to 2nd level (non big box) and they make excellent mowers and weed eaters

@VailHawk They don't make em like that anymore. Also very unlikely to get parts for it anymore either. Word of the wise: Only use ethanol free gas in it. Also never leave any gas in the tank for more than 2-3 weeks max unless you are using it regularly. Ethanol will gum up a carburetor extremely quickly. All my 2 cycle engines I only buy true fuel ethanol free gas pre mix. Some BP stations still have Efree gas but not very many around the KC vicinity anymore. Ethanol burns too hot & destroys engines in half the time of E free gas. Plus in 2 cycle engines oil ratios are so minimal now there is very little cylinder lubrication left like 40:1 or 50:1. Dome of pistons score or burn through in no time. Planned obsolescence I guess.

@VailHawk That may be true, but at this point and experience, we're both inclined to change brands.

@Crimsonorblue22 No it happened leaving work day before Thanksgiving... I learned how to make dressing this year.

@globaljaybird We have several stations here that carry non-ethanol and that is all I use. That ethanol crap eats fuel lines for breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight snack. Thanks EPA for screwing us again.

@globaljaybird impressed!

Let's see, it's 0050 here in Louisiana and looking at ESPN NCAAM you'd barely know that KU played tonite and that Cheick made a very big debut. But you would damn well know UNC/Maryland played.

@brooksmd ad nausiem.

@globaljaybird and @brooksmd

I trust you guys!!! So you're probably right. I'm just brand loyal bc of my upbringing.

I bought a Toro self propelled lawn mower and weed eater in 2006 when we moved into our new home and both have run flawlessly since. Don't know if I've even changed the oil yet...hmmm maybe I should next spring!
