Jan 3: Young team learns about 'The Miracles'
-
@globaljaybird - good post!
Yeah… Tubbs didn’t understand karma. Turning AFH into a celebration for OU basketball wasn’t a good idea. I’ll never forget their little dance and how they rubbed it in on teams. Not exactly respectful basketball etiquette.
Funny how some can’t even wait to win the big prize before they start acting the fool! So many people just aren’t cut out for greatness. Tubbs and Stewart were a couple from the Big 8 that had “L” stamped on their heads. Just a few mods to their behavior and I have little doubt both would have more to show for all the effort they put into basketball. But… that ain’t my problem!

@wrwlumpy : Made that a link for everyone. And a big THANK YOU for that link.
And I’m sure some of you have already watched SportsCenter today but former Jayhawk Royce Woolridge and WSU had a rough night.

SB Nation: Documentary Celebrates 25th Anniversery
@wrwlumpy Unfortunately, you need a DVR with a space-time warp chip to set it for 2013.
If it comes on in 2014, please let me know. I would love to record it on my 21st century Tivo.

Isn’t that what the “Hopper” is??

Was evident Tubbs had never been there before, nor was not destined to ever be.But it also made me happy as a puppy with two -eckers to watch Norm pi$$ & moan, then ultimately lose. I could go on & on about him also but no one here is interested in most of that krap, including me! But I will add that a friend’s son was heavily recruited by him & when he “chauffeured” them around campus in his scroungy Caprice, they said it appeared as if he had recently hauled hay bales & chickens in the back seat! That’s about as purely classless as Billy ever was also.

@bskeet Too funny!

I’m bored at work today listening to the brilliant callers that Finebaum gets every day. Lots of lost little Bam’ers out there. Here’s a video from some woman that is probably nursing a headache today.

That leap she does is ESPN top-play-worthy.

@Kip_McSmithers On a related subject I really hope that Mizzou loses tonight.
-
Love it! Hopefully we see a Missouri fan doing the same thing tonight!

GAME OF THE WEEKEND: No. 21 San Diego State at No. 16 Kansas, Sun. 4:30 p.m.
This is a huge game not only for San Diego State, but for the Mountain West as well. The Aztecs have been one of the more surprising teams in the country this season, but they don’t exactly have a ton of great wins. They beat Creighton and Marquette, who both could end up in the tournament, and knocked off Washington as well, but that’s it. But here’s the thing: even that mediocre non-conference schedule places SDSU near the top of the MWC in terms of performance outside the league. The Mountain West as a whole needs this win.
Can they get it? Well, it’s not going to be easy. Andrew Wiggins was the talk of Lawrence entering the season, but over the course of the last month, the Jayhawks have become a team that pounds the ball into the paint. Joel Embiid, Perry Ellis, Tarik Black. Those are the guys that have shined for Kansas in recent games, and I’m not sure the Aztecs have the front court to deal with them. It will be interesting to see what happens when Wiggins guards Winston Shepard as well. Shepard has been sensational the last three games.
-
@wrwlumpy I wouldn’t lump those three coaches together. Tubbs was a classless moron who after we beat them was quoted in the paper saying he knew his team was better. I was pretty new to KU back then so I hadn’t developed the anti-Missouri venom that I soon would, and it was Billy Tubbs and OU that I hated. I still do in fact.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich & @Crimsonorblue22 : If I could I’d give you both 1,000 favourites.
-
@Kip_McSmithers - Man… I’d give YOU a 1,000 favs for posting that 'bama clip!
To think… Bama with TWO losses this year? What’s next… ending apartheid in the South?
; )
@RockChalkinTexas … I agree… the MWC does need this win! It’s tough as it is being a team in the Midwest, just imagine being West?! They are at such a disadvantage with TV scheduling, and so so far away from East coast sports media… since we are considered West by East coasters… imagine what West is? China?

@wrwlumpy my kids make fun of me for using checks! After watching the Miracles, I had forgotten how much I hated Tubbs. So my question is, after Tubbs left did our hate grow for Missouri and soften for Oklahoma?
-
Do you still write checks? I don’t believe I have written one in a couple of years; all electronic transfers, credit cards or PayPal.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 The hate for Missouri is/was/will be eternal. The feelings toward OU were linked to Tubbs.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 - My kids are so ashamed of me. I write checks AND I don’t have a debit card, I won’t order anything online unless that’s the only way in the universe that I can get what I want and … wait for it … I don’t own a cell phone.
-
@nuleafjhawk Same here with me on all those. And I’ll add I have no cable/dish/satellite TV.
-
@RockChalkinTexas do you have bunny ears on a black and white? Jk! I do hope you get our games, by radio?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I do have the internet so I have access to ESPN but that is it.
-
@RockChalkinTexas I’m not making fun of you by any means!
