      @RockChalkinTexas-0 I used to drive a road in Louisiana that would flood. One spot was a curvey and even though the water basically wasn't moving you think you know a road until you can't see where the edge is anymore. Ditches down there sometimes are 4-6 feet deep and I would just turn around instead of risking drowning in a ditch trapped in a car.

      So yes, driving across that bridge with water going over was a tragic and misguided decision.

      @RockChalkinTexas-0 Yes, been privileged to be on a lake with loons and even northern lights since the early 80's. Hearing the loons and looking at ten quadzillion stars and seeing the northern lights is magical.

      Kstate cancelled a game with Missuri St because it would hurt their RPI even if they win which makes them losers! Other schools do the same which is pretty classless.

      @HoraceZontal Yes, but actually a mile from the city line in Indiana where we live.

      Just discovered this awesome thread of pictures. Although I'm not much on flowers and bugs, I get fascinated by my location along lake Michigan. I'll try to upload a few of my favs if I can figure it out.

      When I try to upload my pictures it says too large. Trying to figure out how to make them smaller.

    • RE: Past jayhawks

      @RockChalkinTexas-0 The NBA is such a bad and boring product to me I stopped checking on former Jayhawks. Nearly all of them were OAD's for us like all three on the 76ers, and I just don't care as much.

      Goodness, look how much Joel Embiid makes. He's never won a championship. Crazy. Do these owners ever consider they could make their games more affordable by slashing these salaries? The Bulls are terrible and their games are out of reach. I haven't gone in years.

      @drgnslayr said in KU ROSTER 2026-27:

      I've been following the Stokes saga this entire time, and I do so by blogging both KU and UK ball. The BBN is a rare breed. They make Mizzou fans seem tame. Thank God our fanbase has a bit more class and also has limited fanaticism. The BBN tormented Stokes this entire time... piercing what limited privacy he had and harrassed him constantly. So when you read about Stokes smacking down UK, you know why. Stokes is a fighter! I know we were all high on our dawg last year, but Stokes is on a different level. Some say he goes overboard because he'll rip his own teammates and coaches a new one at times. It's the next level of dawg. Hopefully, we will all adjust to this level of scrap. Personally, I'm psyched! And my ex would never call Stokes a p*ssy! lol

      BBN a rare breed? You don't say. When we went to the 2012 championship game we were way high up in the stratosphere in a very neutral section. Right in front of us were a bunch of kentucky fans who decided to stand. People behind them, including us asking them to sit down. One kid I asked to sit and he pointed to the scoreboard video screen and told me I could watch it up there. Mind you I'm old enough to be his father, heck in Kentucky, old enough to be his grandfather.

      We need shooting still. Any chance we land Momcilovic from the portal? I think he would give us shooting.

      Can we please have a talent like this that pays off in terms of a run deep into the tournament? Like Wiggins/Embiid/DP never did? I mean Danny Manning did, but that was. a while ago and he stuck around for 4 years.

      It'd be funny if he chose some bad program like North Dakota or Delaware St.
