Ya could definetly do with out Fred. Thank goodness, haven’t seen or heard to much about him in the News lately.
Fred last made the news in 2014 when his hate-filled soul was sucked into the bowels of hell. (although supposedly he’d had a change of heart in his final months and his own church excommunicated him.)

@DanR Fred died in 2014.

@wrwlumpy Those tornado pics are not a comforting sight being from the Joplin area.
-
@DanR Ya I knew he had passed, didn’t realize it had been that long - - still see protesters here and there from time to time. I think one of the biggest things that chap my rear is them having the kids hold those signs, Those kids had NO IDEA what they meant all they know is mommy and Daddy told them to hold the signs and repeat what mommy and daddy did. - -Felt really bad for the kids. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Any else notice Phelps is wearing a KSU jacket, goat ropers
-
@kjayhawks LOL, hadn’t noticed - -but figures - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
More often than not, he wore KU gear so let’s not throw stones. I know that neither KU nor KSU or any one with an iota of common decency would claim him. Let’s not give him any more ink, he now has to account to a higher authority.
-
@JayHawkFanToo …uh, maybe a “lower” authority…things could be gettin’ toasty or downright warm…
-
The higher authority decides if he reports to the lower authority…LOL.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Yep!
-
@JayHawkFanToo As a side point, I dont need Phelps in order to throw stones at KSU’s fans–as their antics earns them the honor all on their own…lol, welcome to the ralster-spin-zone…
-
Ksu beat Pitt by 13 pts

Indeed. However, I would not use Phelps to attack anyone. For years I have heard about it from people all over the country and it has been a source of embarrassment, both as a Kansan and as someone with human decency, that he made his residence in Topeka, Kansas.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Agreed. Yes…that short-list of “Kansas” to those not from the MidWest: Dorothy. Toto. Tornadoes. Phelps. Some instance about KS schools and evolution, also seems to come up fairly regularly…all to the embarassment of Kansas folk.
-
@ralster and the lowest ranked governor!
-
You are right; I have heard every possible Dorothy-Toto-tornado-Wizzard of Oz joke there is. On the other hand, the Jayhawks logo is widely recognized and respected.
-
@JayHawkFanToo What I like is how often, when someone finds out I’m from Kansas, they will ask, “Oh, do you know . . . ?” as if there are about 150 of us!
-
@mayjay When i was in NC a few years back people were asking me about wild indians lol
-
@kjayhawks When we moved to KC in the mid-60s, I thought it was a cowboy/Indians frontier town. I was 10.
In 1973, I was a senior at Shawnee Mission East. My Latin teacher was a new arrival who grew up in and had never been outside of NYC. Never had a car, etc. He told us he came to the airport and asked where he could catch a bus to the Indian Mission. No Wikipedia then!
-
@mayjay Thats great but yes its funny some of the things a guy heres when traveling or seeing travelers. Its crazy to thing how much riskier it was to travel even when i was a kid, although we never went anywhere but colorado and nebraska to see family had a nice road map lol and had to ask for directions at gas stations.

Chipman on playing KU for final time

Yep should be a good game between the Jayhawks and the Washburn ichabods
