We should all focus on these Jayhawks. Rumor has it that they're pretty good this year.
I have heard that we are, in fact, good.
Delete the list.
Whoa, we got into our feelings here!
@justanotherfan Glad to see you back brotha.
@FarmerJayhawk :exploding_head:
Foster is an elite talent, we would be fortunate there...
@approxinfinity said in Calling @justanotherfan and @HighEliteMajor:
I believe the stigma against political discussion as a country has not been good for us. I believe we should be able to discuss and debate anything and still be able to coexist and appreciate each other. I believe now more than ever we need to learn how to not be polarized and pit against others who see things differently. And given this, and the fact that the whole political section can be ignored, I think it's a good thing to have.
Great point. This is part of what I was trying to get at with the diversions and unity comment. We need to come together as a nation and fix our big issues. Blocking the conversation only helps the powers that be maintain the status quo.

@BShark Yes, I agree, I’ve had younger inner city kids as a foster parent and they are great. Some them had major issues but I worked with them. Most of them need to be taught how to act and right from wrong. They need loved, if you parents don’t care if you go to jail or skip school. Why should you? Most them don’t have role models or even parents around in general.I grew poor in broke in homes. We can break cycle together, I’ll never give up on helping kids.
Yessir. I'm helping a couple kids right now. They just need to know someone cares. Blows them away that I care since their own mother and father don't!
I grew up poor as well.
@wissox I would be happy with only hoops but we would need a hard rule.
I would agree that it's at least much more interesting to talk hoops with hem. I actually agree with him about Jamari. Landed is someone that never should have started but probably was our best option due to injuries and recruiting misses.
I'm a bit all over the place tonight. I've been a bit depressed about the state of the country and humanity lately so that might be spilling over. My apologies if so. I really do choose to believe that people are good overall.

So, they acknowledge that the outbreak simulation was real and that Gates Foundation is involved, but hide it under claims Gates is "profiting from it". I don't think that's what most people are claiming at all. So they try to cover up the facts by debunking lies.
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have a mission that's globalism and population control, among other things. They fund a company that does virus research under the guise of "livestock research".
@kjayhawks yes there are bad people, I am aware. Witnessed some real bad stuff. I don't want to go too deep but I think it is mostly not their fault. I believe that people are born good, but conditioned to be evil. Some fight it better than others. It's a lot to fight. Right now the key diversion seems to be identity politics to prevent people from unifying on important issues like health care, slowing global warming, raising minimum wage so everyone can work a job and not have to still worry about survival. Meanwhile the current system benefits like 20 people while the masses struggle. Then we might have another bullshit war with Iran. Maybe south America too. If only there were more poor countries to exploit.
Bill Gates is actually responsible for it, very interesting to read up on this.
@kjayhawks yeah but the problem isn't the people there. I've lived in not great areas and done work to help repair inner city churches. Lots of good people trying to make a difference but there is a lot of evil at work to help keep prisons well stocked.

@dylans Was about to mention this. You don't walk away from that without getting another job.
@jayballer73 Huge upgrade for Tejas if it happens.
I'd like it tbh, Bill can use the stimulation. Shaka is a putz.
:eyes: :eyes: :eyes:
Rumor stage.
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah in theory we only have 3 scholarships coming off the books (Mitch, Silvio, Garrett) and not a huge need for immediate impact.
An introspective wouldn't hurt, but I also wouldn't bet on it.
Hoping @justanotherfan is simply busy.
Welcome back lumpy.
@jayballer73 we are full, and haven't offered him. Sounds like a contingency plan in case someone leaves unexpectedly.
And yeah he went 1-15 from three with KU coaches watching.
Oh
Williams coming in for another unofficial. Sounds like he is recruiting KU.
@kjayhawks said in Hangover II Game Thread:
Anyone else notice, the score at the bottom only had us at 23 wins and uped it to 24 after but we actually have 25??
They were behind a game last time too. They aren't wanting to count something over at ESPN.
OMG

WVU 2-19 in the last 21 league road games. YIKERS.
@approxinfinity Easy games are nice! Got a couple more left.
Nice guy Bill Self inflating OSU's score to make it look better.
lol
@Crimsonorblue22 I'm saying it's not as bad as many think. It's good enough when considering the rest of the team. Only lost three games all year, and should have beat Duke and Nova.
We just beat the former #1 team in the country on their home court with an efficient offensive gameplan. Should have beat them by about 10 but pissed our pants late. I trust Bill.
@Bwag while true, on the year we are still top 90 (out of like 353 teams) in 3pt % at 35%. It's not like we are bottom of the pack. The offense relative to the rest of college basketball is still top 10, it's just that no one is particularly great at it. Could it lead to some variance sure but we bring this defense every night.
Hard to imagine watching this game and having negative takes. We are not great but good enough from three.
Ochai is 3-3 on twos tonight, THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
@FarmerJayhawk Davey buckets has potential.
@Crimsonorblue22 He has one so far, so it would take some effort.
@FarmerJayhawk said in Hangover II Game Thread:
Think they would notice if we just sent Harris in for the rest of the night?
POSTSEASON BAN
David you gotta pass that out.
@Texas-Hawk-10 I'm just happy for the rest time.
@Bwag Same. He would make it a meat grinder.
5 days to prepare for juggernaut KSU.

What is our kryptonite going forward?

Good lord, Doke landed on his wrist.

Let’s go! Run it up on the the clowns!!
Absolutely should. What a joke that they started pressing more on D.
