The people who think this is fake need to put themselves in my shoes. I have an 8 year old diabetic son, a 73 year old dad who has COPD and other health issues, a mother-in-law who has RA and a wife who has asthma.

Why not waive on the side of caution? I’m not treating this as if I’m scared or too prideful to treat this serious. I treat this as I’d rather be uncomfortable (donning a mask) and have this be less serious than previously expected than be careless and danger my loved ones.

Same goes for strangers who argue this point. They, in a way, are putting them in danger too. It’s not like we can stay home 100% of the time.

Another one of view point in this is, and I’m not at all saying this is anyone here.
This generation is a bunch of pu$$ies, pardon my French. Just think about it. People who think this is fake or are protesting the restrictions set in place would have never lasted in previous generations. From getting drafted in wars at the age of 18 or even going on a country wide ration during WWII. It would have impeded on their freedoms, right? I bet the kids storming the beaches in Normandy thought the same.

All people have to do is wear a mask and wash their hands a little more often than they normally would. Not hard people.

@Crimsonorblue22 I guess next time we’ll just run up the score and don’t stop until the buzzer. Apparently that’s how class acts finish games.

If we land Wilson on Wednesday we all owe Spring Bill a beer.

@wrwlumpy thank you for taking the time and putting these threads together. I look forward to them every game.

@Gorilla72 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:

KYSportsRadio on Twitter quoted Calipari saying there are a lot of players wanting to transfer to Kentucky. Said he needed to evaluate them, “because as I’ve said, this environment isn’t for everybody”.

I can not roll my eyes hard enough at this.

Me, my wife, and 2 kids came to KS today from Wyoming. We bought tickets to this game last month. Great seats behind the home bench. I really hope they find a replacement.

@approxinfinity You have to remember that there’s no one who knows this virus more than Donny.

Memphis will have the best team to ever win the NIT. Good for them.

Nothing to see here. They would obviously self report.

@jayballer73 Bill Self is down in Texas right now. Jalen Wilson lives in Texas.

Self is probably putting RJ’s dad in pile driver would be my guess.

A 20 win season!

Doke got to start yesterday. 22 minutes 10 rebounds and 8 points

Thank god we don’t have to watch him eat his mask every time he inhales.

Och with another good game. 21 minutes, 19 points, 7/7 fg with 4 three pointers.

@FarmerJayhawk but yelling F KU is classy? Ugh they’re a different breed. I have a few KSU friends myself.

Happy Father’s Day everyone. I got 2 crazy wild boys that keep me busy

I went to YouTube to find Och’s senior speech and found this instead. In a way this hit me harder than the speech did.

What a great young man!

We should all focus on these Jayhawks. Rumor has it that they’re pretty good this year.

Such a relief that MJ made it on campus. That’s the first box checked for next years team.

Duke lock

Sickening tbh.

I’m really not crazy high on our starting lineup at the moment either. Even with Nelson, it is a bit concerning. The saving grace was that we would have a ton of depth. But with Udeh and Zuby out we have absolutely questionable/non-existent depth at the 3,4 and 5 spots. And with the portal closed targets are limited. If we end up with Parker Freaking Braun as backup Center I won’t even know what to think.

At least we get to see their mom for another year.

@kjayhawks said in The democratic nominee:

@Kcmatt7 interesting I guess I don’t pay enough attention to it to see all of that. But healthcare is huge issue in this country right now.

I have a 8 year old son with diabetes. He was diagnosed at 20 months old. His supplies cost about $500 a month after insurance. Some months it’s around $800. Luckily we can afford it, somewhat. But there’s family’s where that would literally break the bank.

It’s just sad that medical supplies cost so much. Basic elementary economics on demand says raise the price. They are literally using “staying alive” as their demand in evaluating their costs. It’s sickening

@BShark said in 2021 Recruiting:

Jalen and Ochai are coming back.

Yesterday Jalen was on Snapchat. He was wearing KU shorts. He also looks like he’s hitting the weight room.

@BShark

I’m sure we could go through old posts from last spring about us gushing over Wilson at the time.

While we’re at it we should look at our old posts about Hurt and Stanley.

I remember my first post here back in April and it said “Every year we have something to worry about and Self some how pulls it off.”

Thank you @approxinfinity for all that you do.

@drgnslayr When he puts it all together, and he will put it all together … either this year or next… we’re going to feel ashamed how we dogged him.

I love this post. We’re going to realize how important Marcus is in this rotation however it’ll be after he graduates. We talk about moving away frown AODs and move closer to a 4 star who bleeds crimson and blue. Marcus is that guy we want.

He’ll be a bench player but have started minutes.

Thanks @approxinfinity. You da man

Soak It Up !

Not sure where else to post this but Devonte had 30 points tonight. 8-11 from 3

Way to go Bill. You still got it.

K-state really impressive tonight, losing to Monmouth at the half 29-20.

Heard their announcers say - K-State is like 1-30 from three point range in the 1st half these last 2 games - -AGAIN ONE – for THIRTY - - sure sounds like they really suck still early season though.

How is this possible with such an elite program?

I moved from KS to WY for a whopping $200. They must have a lot of stuff to make a move cost $11,000.

I get SDS was paid to play but how is paying Wiseman to move not a recruiting tool, quid pro quo?

After watching it is clear that the buzz around Harris is legit.

This man shaped our coach in to who he is. As a man and a lover of basketball.

Sending love and support from Wyoming.

You can tell Remy loves KU

Remy, CB, Och, JWill, and KJ was a fun lineup.

@jayballer67 you could really see that Och was proud of KJ. That chemistry is good to see

@benshawks08 I’m sure he’s back just as a different name.

I’m going to get a lot of heat for this but Bilas is not a bad dude. He’s actually pretty fair and seems to like KU.

AZ had a lot of calls go their way towards the end.

@Jethro said in Friars vs Hawks S16 Game Thread:

Somebody’s not happy about us taking their title away:

What a nasty group. Someone said it didn’t matter, and then a person said shut up and die. Wow that just make me like this board even more.

Thanks for keeping it classy everyone!

He should show this video on his dating site.

@Crimsonorblue22 we can’t fix stupid.

Graham had 12 assists and 14 points tonight. Not bad.

Self lifetime contract. Last year was rough to say the least, and KU doesn’t need fair weathered fans.

@mayjay Good to see you sir. You’ve missed a lot. We went from having like zero players returning next year to now we have to figure out who to redshirt!

No kidding. We were about to take volunteers from here to try and become walk on’s

I’m just glad he’s still allowing alcohol purchases.

Doke is starting again. So far 7 minutes 5 rebounds and 4 points

Duke. Twice a day for proper dosage

@jayballer73 oh my god. I don’t know what to say to you. I’m am so sorry. Hopefully her boyfriend can be with her soon.

Doke with 14 rebounds and 7 points in a victory.
