    • RE: Other games 2026-2027

      Not attending the KU game despite living in LV now. Moving was about twice the cost we expected. Easier to follow all these new Jayhawks on TV anyway!

    • RE: 2026-2027 NFL Season

      Comparing KC's WR stats is kind of fruitless since all 3 of their lead receivers have been hurt. With Reid not scheming downfeld hardly at all since Thornton got hurt, the WRs are also limited in big gain opportunities.

      @rockchalkjayhawk

      In another breaking story, Generalissimo Franco is still dead.

    • RE: 2026-2027 NFL Season

      @kjayhawks2.0 I have wondered if the need to kickoff short of the goal line might require a physical and mental adjustment that messes with the form for trying long field goals. The Rams and other teams have replaced kickers, too.

    • RE: KU Vs. Fordham Rams.

      @wissox83 @kcmatt7 Looked it up. Rosario got injured in practice before the Duke game. Concussion evaluation, 14 stitches, and oral surgery. "Day to day"...but not today.

      @kjayhawks2.0 On Moore's head turn "false start": Maybe the refs figured they needed to meet our RT quota.

      At least it was a whole bunch of stupid plays by a lot of guys rather than a couple by just one goat. Teamwork makes the nightmare work!

      Missing 1st and 2nd string RT and 1st string (tho probably not any more) RT, and 2 of 3 top WRs, had to take its toll sometime. Plus, Sneed apparently limited. Oh well, no one wins them all...at least for the past 54 years!

    • RE: KU Baylor

      Okay, Google AI says no. But close, at Texas:

      "Charlie Strong (Texas, 2016): Strong's Longhorns suffered a shocking 24-21 overtime loss to Kansas on November 19, 2016. While reports immediately leaked that he would be let go, Texas officials chose to wait until after their final regular-season game against TCU a week later to officially announce his firing."

      @rockchalkjayhawk Didn't this happen years ago when we beat Nebraska or someone?

      @rockchalkjayhawk @kjayhawks2.0 Seems the NFL has a different view of Benson: named AFC Offensive Rookie of the Month for September. Walker named AFC Offensive Player of the Month.

    • Jalon Daniels sighting

      Played for the Bucs today. Zero completions on 3 attempts...well, he did have an interception, so does that count? Passer rating of 0.0

      But as at KU in the preinjury era, he did better with his legs. Ran for 9 yards in a single attempt. Better average than most RBs, I'd guess.

    • RE: Roll Call

      Mayjay update: Lingering for a few nights in Santa Fe on our long move cross country to LV. We moved out of our house in Hilton Head on August 17, and we are supposed to close in LV on our house in Summerlin on Sept 25th. That will end 44 days of being itinerant retirees bouncing from motel to motel, with just 2 nights with friends. Packing 3 Pods was a nightmare because we had lots of stuff in storage while showing our house--hey, here's some free advice: GET RID OF CRAP WHILE YOU CAN! Anyway, once we are settled (best guess, sometime in the 2030's) I will be back here more often. Meanwhile, my heart goes out to all of you who have lost loved ones or are facing health issues. We have had tumult and chaos, but we are fully aware we are lucky to be able to make the choices causing our upheaval. Not everyone is so fortunate. Good luck to all of my friends here and to our teams! I'll be lurking until about October.... 🎲🎲🎲

      Odd trade. The weak spot looks like RT.

    • RE: KU ROSTER 2026-27

      @approxinfinity Paid to play? Technically, I am, so no jealousy here. Although this is our 4th move since I retired, and fixing up a house and eventually moving yourself is a helluva lot harder than my desk jobs were!

      Well, I for one am glad that so many student athletes are willing to devote another year to their educational pursuits.

    • RE: TBT The Basketball Tournament

      @rockchalkjayhawk said in TBT The Basketball Tournament:

      Vegas! I guess that means the party and spare beds are available at the @mayjay household come November and the Players Era 8 tourney!

      You might be surprised how many people whose houses we have never been invited to have told us they'll come see us when they go to LV for something! Fortunately, we will be living near Red Rock Canyon pretty far west of the arenas. Maybe we will just happen to be camping...

    • RE: TBT The Basketball Tournament

      @rockchalkjayhawk Thanks! We were busy finalizing the contract to sell our house (closes Aug 17, then Vegas, baby!!!). Had no idea game was on!

      (Yes, Vegas...just to live closer to our 2 kids who live in Hawaii. Won't be clubbing...)
