    • RE: Kansas vs. Wagner

      @nuleafjhawk said in Kansas vs. Wagner:

      Over 7,000 yards passing for his career. Works out to about 500 yds per season or so.

      The announcers made a big deal about Daniels being the 2nd KU player to that total. They didn’t mention he is still 4,000 yards behind Reesing who did it in only 4 years!

    • RE: 2025 Chiefs

      @rockchalkjayhawk Technically, everyone we cut who didn’t have to go through waivers, but we then re-signed, was a free agent…temporarily. That is why I’m nervous about Pennel if they dawdle too much!

    • RE: 2025 Chiefs

      Veach says Pennel could be back before or during season. They preferred Nnadi because he is 5 years younger, but they are still looking at DLs throughout the league. Hard to get good trades for KC because of both draft position (31) and no extra early round picks to entice other teams.

      @dylans said in 2025 Chiefs:

      …Pennel has come up big before…

      I have yet to see any report of Pennel re-signing as expected. Not on any lists in about 5 sources I’ve checked. Last I counted, Chiefs have 16 on practice squad so he could well be the last one to sign.

      @Crimsonorblue22 Cobee, KU’s #2? He was put on inactive/nonfootball (injury? or other reason?) status back in late July by Atlanta (who signed him as undrafted FA). Don’t know why…

      Lots of familiar faces on KC practice squad. From SI:

    • RE: 2025 Chiefs

      @rockchalkjayhawk Apparently they may re-sign Pennell. As a veteran, not subject to waivers. The Chiefs played with a few of these expected re-signings of vets because, I think, they wanted room on the roster now for 8 WRs so they wouldn’t lose anyone to other teams. This enables them to have people who know the offense in place when Rice gets suspended instead of searching for some castoff.

      Chiefs traded for DT Derek Nnadi from the Jets (exchanged 2026 6th and 7th round picks). Got him back after he was signed as a FA last spring by NYJ. Good move!!!

      @nuleafjhawk My dad was in Az in WW2. He said the humidity was so low that you never felt sweat even in the 90’s playing tennis. But you would end up with a white crust on your skin. Now, I’ve heard people say irrigation has more than doubled the humidity levels.

      Again, I pass. Like, I will pass through to see the Grand Canyon.

      Edit: Other than 2nd rd pick. Only 2 of 32 have signed. They all want more guaranteed money after this year’s 1st pick of the second round got a huge guaranteed portion increase over last year’s #33 pick.

      @dylans They also rented construction equipment to be in the background of a fake groundbreaking photo at the Tropicana site. Lots of theater going on in their PR about a stadium for which financing doesn’t exist but which they claim will be magically done in 3 years.

    • RE: I'm Back

      @BShark You are the perfect example of the catalyst that allows the health care industrial complex to continue to fool itself and politicians that we have the best care in the world, no changes needed, Americans are so lucky, etc.

      Because you are your family’s everyday health care advocate-- really, “hero” is the better word. Every day, thousands of parents, children, siblings, grandparents, cousins, aunt and uncles, and family friends have to step in and save their family members from convoluted rules, poorly trained staff, and overburdened or uncaring administrators.

      We had to do the same for my mother. I was able to do it because I was retired so I had time, and had training in advocacy as a lawyer, but I fear for all the people who get screwed with little recourse. The stories of people losing their homes from erroneous insurance denials and huge med bills are insane.

      Glad to hear your brother is doing better. May the love and compassion you bring to all the people in your life you have comforted and cared for come back to you a hundredfold!

      Not political…just a question on procedures. Visas for international college students are held up currently as the State Dept reviews social media (hasn’t said for what). Could that be putting a hold on announcing any recruiting efforts?

      If KU beats Creighton on Friday, they play the winner of North Dakota St. vs Arkansas (# 3 overall seed).

      If KU wins the regional they play the winner of the Knoxville regional: Cincinnati, Wake Forest, Tennessee (#14 seed), or Miami.

      I still can’t lay the 2003 loss to the Evil Orange at Roy’s feet. Unfortunately KU shot under 50% on FTs. Unlike Cal who ignored UK’s problems all season in 2007-08, Roy cared about those but sometimes the balls don’t go in.
