Made For March
I hate that I feel the need to justify my posts and attitudes but here we go.
There is an excellent docuseries on Paramount + called Made For March. I've only seen the first two episodes so far, but it's very informative and very well done. It follows Kansas and Michigan through the past season. Please watch if you are able.
In the first episode, at around the 8:45 mark, Bill Self says what I've been saying for a while. (Paraphrase) That Kansas now is not the Kansas that everyone is used to. He says the past two seasons (ending 2025 and 2024) were the worst since he's been in Lawrence. He emphasized "We haven't been in the game! " The narrator goes on to say that they were the worst two seasons in the past 40 years.
Anyway, watching this show is softening some of my hard edges, but I, personally was glad to see that segment with Self.

RE: Other Games 2025-2026
@wissox83 What I personally find tiresome (this is not necessarily directed just at you) is the fact that this is supposed to be a forum for people to talk about sports (mostly) and talking about sports involves passion and opinions along with facts.
I say what I feel, what I observe. I take off the Crimson and Blue glasses and I don't drink the Crimson and Blue kool-aid.
Kansas is a program on the decline. That's not my opinion, that's a fact. Kansas men's basketball had not lost 11 games in a season since 1989! The past three years we've lost 11, 13 and 11. We have been bounced from the NCAA Tournament after the first or second games (against generally far inferior opponents) multiple timnes. That's right off the kuathletics.com website. Facts. Not opinions. So people can say I'm naysayer. Say that I'm negative. Say whatever they want to say. Have me banned. Chances are I'm just telling the truth and nobody wants to hear it.

@wissox83 it was supposed to be disguised sarcasm. Sorry you're so sensitive.

RE: Other Games 2025-2026
@wissox83 Tonight will make it SEVEN National Championships in NINE trips to the Funal Four for UCONN. How is that even possible? PLUS - UCONN is the only college program that has sent the men's and women's teams to the Final Four in the same year multiple times. SIX to be exact. No other program has done that more than once.
We suck.

RE: 2026 Transfer Portal Chaos/Madness Thread
@HoraceZontal What if law enforcement/ firefighters/ EMT's were paid like athletes? Oh wait.....sports is way more important than that foolishness.

@wissox83 You might enjoy Holey Moley. A ridiculous miniature golf show featuring KU Alum Rob Riggle.

RE: 2026 Transfer Portal Chaos/Madness Thread
I believe that all players - basketball, football, baseball, field hockey, ice dancers, water poloists, etc.. should be paid a minimum of 10 billion dollars per semester and can only stay at one school for a maximum of one semester.

RE: Bill Self
@BShark OMG. A college ball player jumping ship before his Senior year? Unthinkable! I hope this doesn't start a new trend.
This is not a dig at you, BShark - just airing out my frustrations.

RE: Not a Completely Disappointing Tournament!
@approxinfinity I abandoned Hatebook about 5 years ago. Wish I'd done it sooner. My only "social media" now is kubuckets. Facebook has gotten so bad that Sunday our pastor encouraged everyone to dump it.

RE: Mario's shot
@wissox83 I don't remember about the Mario game, but I went to bed at halftime of the 2022 Championship. You're all welcome. I stay up - we lose.

RE: What I want next season
@bskeet I think the third won't happen regardless of what the first two are.

RE: What I want next season
I want NIL money to go away and for players to stay four years.
And world peace.

RE: INDIANA. UCLA. LOUISVILLE. AND.......
@Texas-Hawk-10 seedings don't mean quality teams. Look at our early exits lately. It doesn't matter where a team is seeded. It matters how they perform.
