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?
@jayballer54 My question was and is – is KU the only school that has had a two game losing streak -sure seems they blowing this thing out of proportion
The reason for this is because KU does NOT have 2 game losing streaks. It’s a big deal. It’s news when something only happens every 30 years.
Kansas bride a very determined woman. She insisted that I square my shoulders, walk a bit taller and straighter, wave goodbye to hapless old Norm Stewart, and begin veiwing KU basketball during the Larry Brown/Danny Manning years. After that very thrilling national title game I was hooked for life.

Don’t the referees have a an association/union that can file a complaint with the NCAA? DickItch openly questioned their professionalism and called them biased and in the back pocket of the big programs. If I were a referee I would be extremely offended.
@DanR Yeah, Brian’s voice kills me. I can’t take it.
Man, I miss Max and Bob. I used to prefer the radio to any tv announcer and would always mute the tv and crank up the radio. Delay be damned good announcers are worth it!
Are there any good KU play by play guys on an online stream?

I believe that article was more of a tongue in cheek, wishful thinking type of story and likely not even close to reality. The team is based in Prienai, a town of under 10,000 people or a tenth the size of Lawrence and it plays in a gym with a capacity of 1,500 but typically has 100 fans for games but I expect the Ball freak show will draw bigger crowds until the novelty wears out.
The team is said to be in financial trouble and I imagine they are not paying them very much at all; they get free publicity and Lavar gets to say he got the kids a pro contract. I give the experiment a couple of months at the most. Here is a story that gives a better idea of the condition they will be in.

Excellent point about presumption of innocence that is often misinterpreted. Also because guilt cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt does not necessarily mean the accused is innocent, as you mentioned, and hence the “not guilty” rather than “innocent” verdict.
Now I have a question for you. In the Kate Steinle case in San Francisco, the defendant was found not guilty because the defense claimed the shooting was accidental and the result of of mishandling the gun. Shouldn’t he have been then convicted of involuntary manslaughter? Isn’t this the textbook definition of it? Was jury nullification the only reason for this verdict? I have read dozens of articles on the issue from all sides and I don’t believe I read one that finds the verdict was correct.
@kjayhawks
I agree, LiAngelo was a 3-star player coming out of High School and not an NBA prospect. He also pulled LaMelo out of HS because the coach told the team, forget about taking 50 shots per game, it is not happening here but had a coach with a 30-3 record fired first. Ido’t know why schools cater to this clown
He said he can go to the streets of LA and pick guys to practice in his own court at home that would be better competition than UCLA. I understand they are now looking at overseas opportunities for both of them; too bad China is out of the question.

The Big 12 is pretty tough in women’s hoops.
Texas, Baylor and West Virginia all ranked in the top 15, with Oklahoma State, OU and KSU all having solid programs.
The first step for KU is to demonstrate that we are better than TCU, Texas Tech and Iowa State. That gets us out of the basement.
Then show that we can compete with OU, OSU and KSU. That puts us in the middle of the conference.
We aren’t ready to take on the big three yet, but showing that we can play with the teams in the middle of the conference is a huge step for a struggling program.

@jayballer54
It is not unusual for ineligible players to miss trips. If I recall correctly Bragg missed the Kentucky and Baylor trip while his situation was resolved. Maybe Billy’s mom though she could hitch a ride to Miami with the team and Coach Self nixed the idea and gave him a way to save face. Considering the apparent lack of transparency from Billy’s side it would not surprise me.
