@JayHawkFanToo 100% right!!!
@drgnslayr need to add his pic to the locker room!
Try this
First off, congrats. You guys are a really scrappy team and it's making this a heck of a series. I wish a few things would have gone our way, but hey, that's baseball.
I wanted to share something I saw during the Royals BP. My friends and I had went early, we watched you guys warm up. We stood in the left field seats and judged balls getting hit towards us--pretty fun to do if you've never done it. Anyways, there were a few KC players near the wall shagging fly balls, doing normal stuff. But then they started tossing a few balls to some of the little kids with gloves. They encouraged them to toss it back and thus a game of catch began between little kids (decked out in O's gear) and KC players. This went on for a good twenty minutes. There was one in particular--Scott Downs--that was having a lot of fun with it.
These little kids ate it up. Playing catch with MLB players, man, what a memory. They treated those kids so well, and none of them had any KC gear on. I turned to my buddy and said "you know, it's really hard to hate this team." And that's the truth. That was really cool, something I've never seen.
Anyways, just had to share it. Good luck, and know that if we don't pull off some miracles I'm rooting for KC in the WS.
See if this works. Good story why fans all over are pulling for the Royals!!

So proud this guy is a Jayhawk !!!!
@wissoxfan83 speaking of track, KU sports has a great article about another amazing athlete, Billy Mills.
@JayHawkFanToo just for the heck of it, who do you start against kensucky, and why? Press, run, zone, think they'll zone it up?
@JayHawkFanToo thx!
@JayHawkFanToo wishful on my part!
@jaybate-1.0 the twins have dropped in ranking, if they don't get better they will be there again or play overseas.
@KUSTEVE I think we will see some crazy combos this year! That's what makes this years team exciting!! Lots of different ways to beat a team, hopefully coach will try a few.
@JRyman especially since we have his number! I think he hates to play us!
@jaybate-1.0 I did hear Self say he'd probably go w/9 man rotation, but that rotation would probably change according to match ups
@KUSTEVE I thought about that.
@HighEliteMajor that's what I was trying to say!
@drgnslayr I think Ulis will eventually start over the Harrison pt.
@drgnslayr I think Kensucky would be better off if the twins went down. Not everyone will be happy on that team!
@drgnslayr don't you think KU staff-Hudy, is aware of his mechanics? Hopefully he's better! I don't know why, I usually back the defensive guys, but I really like this kid?????
And more
@AdamZagoria: NBA scout also told me he thinks Harrisons and Dakari are 2nd-round picks, but can help themselves this season.
@JayHawkFanToo just read this, cause problems?
@AdamZagoria: NBA scout: "I think Tyler Ulis runs their team better than Andrew Harrison does." More later/tomorrow.
@jaybate-1.0 will Self run this against Kentucky?
@jaybate-1.0 matchups
@DoubleDD do you close to kc, take in any games?
@DoubleDD you partying again, brother?
Wissoxfan was complaining about the time. Or sighing....
@DoubleDD I'm the big fan! Haven't missed watching a game for a long time. Not a brother either.
@DoubleDD you mean me?
@wissoxfan83 it is what it is. Royals fans will watch, at least this was just 9 innings!
@jayhawkbychoice I think Selden said he was close.
@brooksmd they are so much fun to watch, never quit, play for each other, and are having a blast! Team ball!
@drgnslayr so what did you think of hunter? Anyone?
@KUSTEVE maybe against Kentucky?
@KUSTEVE what did you think about Hunter?
Anybody see late night? Hard to tell much. Selden looks really strong, hit outside shots and strong inside. Mason looks confident. Hunter runs the floor well, rebounds, had some nice baskets, pleasantly surprised me. Cliffs baby hook looks good. Oubre makes things happen. Devonte looks comfortable too. With everyone playing, hard to see a clear pic. Conner had some nice looks. Svi was not as good as I was hoping. Sure that will change.
@wissoxfan83 well, w/the royals, figure it to be much longer!!! As long as it takes!!!
Bskeet, thanks!
@brooksmd yeah!!!!! Now I need to catch up w/late night reads! Good day! Hopefully tomorrow will be easier!
@wissoxfan83 well I do!!
@wissoxfan83 ouch! Ugly game for us!!
Go royals, no time like the present, top of 9.
@drgnslayr I definitely believe you!

Think this would help Coach Self?
@Statmachine if you were in ks, it would be blacked out!
@HighEliteMajor keep beating it-the horse that is! Wigs has moved on and so am I!
@Statmachine do you get espn 3?
@HighEliteMajor and Embiid and shepherd......
@drgnslayr damn, you need to be a d1 eyebrow reader, maybe even w/the NBA! And to think, we, KU, botched the #1 recruit's development! Recruits should all be running away! Maybe these recruits could be developed on the team that hires you for eyebrow reading! How 'bout a place w/unibrow? Great test for your expertise?
