My 6 year old came home singing this, which he picked up at school. I guess theres a clapping game that goes with it. I enjoyed the regional variations in the reddit thread.

I wonder if you guys have encountered any similar spoken word things (or other things) that varied greatly by region?
KU faces Oklahoma with a chance for a rematch with Baylor.
Oklahoma State (#2 seed) was also eliminated yesterday by 3 seed Texas Tech. That sets up a WVU-TTU matchup.
Baylor and TCU (5 and 6 seeds) are already in the semis. Top 2 seeds are out. 3 and 4 seeds have to win their next two, or they are out (if Baylor or TCU wins their semifinal, they advance - if they lose, they get a rematch under the double elimination format).
Chances are better that one of the bottom four seeds wins this tournament than that a top 4 team even makes the final.
Having a female chancellor (I’m assuming that’s what you are referring to, but correct me if I’m wrong) does not mean that the old boys club mentality is dispelled, right? Cultural shifts can take a while, especially at institutions which offer tenured positions; think generationally. Hopefully there was progress made, I think we can both agree on that.
Totally agree- life ain’t fair and oversensitivity is a problem affecting our society. We need people like you who are passionate about their freedom of speech! You implied I am one of those trying to “eliminate” your freedom speech but I’ve already mentioned I encourage the discourse. We should also all have awareness of what we share to our communities and what privileges we have. By privilege I am not just talking about sex or race. Even if we have the privilege not to concern ourselves with certain issues facing society, it doesn’t mean those issues in society don’t exist, right? Community leaders (even of small online message boards) can only lead when they understand the society they act in, otherwise they are just members without any meaningful influence.
Not too sure about the picture of the PhD costume, but perhaps it provided some people the joy you intended it to?

Don’t see a legitimate reason to play WSU in the regular season. Maybe Bruce feels different but l don’t respect his thought process most of the time anyway. He does have a lot of previous excuses to explain losses to the Shuckers.
My interest has been more at the local level through coaching my kids and some school teams. I have so many sports to watch I’ve never gotten into it a whole bunch. But it is a great sport.
@dylans
ESPN has been losing viewers big time and by extension advertising. They have had a couple of big layoffs and they desperately need money. Expect to see more of it.
@approxinfinity
I’m counting around 15 4* recruits so far. That includes the expectation that Agbaji gets the bump he should receive by the end of 2018 rankings updates.
What’s even more promising for the league is almost every team is adding an impact transfer. The league has really embraced transfers
KU- The Lawson, Charlie Moore
K-St- Austin Trice
TCU- Aussie import Alok
Texas Tech- Tariq Owens (grad transfer from St Johns)
Texas- Elijah Mitrou-Long (I believe Nas Long’s brother), averaged 15ppg at his last stop.
Baylor- Mario Kegler- former Top 40 recruit, Machai Mason- star at Yale
Iowa St- Virginia Transfer Shayok
Oklahoma- Juco All-American Kuath. Grad transfer Reynolds at PG
Oklahoma St- Michael Weathers.
@kjayhawks ya I saw that. - -he wife added this morning told Clint they were on vacation Saturday. - Said this morning though she is not that mean lol. - -said if KU makes the championship Monday he can go lol. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@mayjay
Correct. I posted all the number yesterday after the game. 15 behind as of today and could got to 13. I believe UNC is now 20 games behind after being in front of KU for a long time. Coach Self sure has moved the needle in the right direction.
@DoubleDD it’s easy to say that, but college doesn’t develop players well enough in its current form for the NBAPA to agree to that. Nor does it pay players when the NBA would and taking out 3 years of potential earnings is a lot.
My thought is this: Add 10 games to the season and adopt NBA rules. That fixes a lot of the development issues most will have. Let players hire agents who’s job is to simply fetch endorsement deals. That takes care of the fair compensation issues. I wouldn’t have any requirements to stay. My thing is that I would simply create an environment that makes the decision to Stay in college a profitable one for the players. Where they are getting proper development and paid fairly so that they only go to the NBA when they are ready to go.
