Logic is not allowed here...

This. We are Chiefs brethren... I always tell Mizzou fans, they should have chosen to be KU fans. Less heartbreak that way. It's hard enough being a Royals and Chiefs fans, as it is.

How many BCS bowl wins does Boise State and MU have ?
How many national titles does Army and MU have ?

I get it. There's so much chest thumping that goes on between the two fan bases, I get why people want to get their shots in whenever they can.

That said, I think it becomes a complex when your first thought is to bash your rival when your team wins... I did facepalm at a couple of facebook posts right after the game ended that were just bashing Missouri. There's norfolkin' reason to do something like that.

I watched the Duke game. The outcome of it shouldn't have been surprising in the least for anybody that watched them play this year. Duke was much worse than Missouri (even with Kelly, who didn't even play the game) and Lehigh was way better than Norfolk.

The problem with that, of course, was that Norfolk really isn't a good basketball team. In fact, they're a terrible one.

You are aware KU did not invent shit. Naismith came up with the thoght of basketball in 1891. Sent the idea off to some other guy who made it better as Naismith wanted the guys rolling the ball to each other then tried to claim it was all his. That loser did not even get to KU until 1898. KU invented basketball = fail.

It's a tough question, but sometime quality is so overwhelming, it obviates the need for quantity. Jim Brown's career wasn't as long as it could've been, but both he and Sayers were so superior to their competition when healthy and playing that you have to recognize.

haha, seriously? there is only one base for your comparison--the fact that jim brown retired young (29). he played nine full seasons, 118 games (excluding playoffs) and never missed a game. he led the league in carries six times.

no doubt, gale sayers was talented. but let me put it this way--where do you draw the line? to go to extremes, matt cassel once had two 400 yard passing games in a row. it's never been done before. if he'd have retired after that, does that make him a hall-of-famer?

gale sayers' career numbers are no better than priest holmes or terrell davis, both of which were amazing and among the best in the nfl before they retired due to injury concerns. there's a matter of consistency here: if a guy is a hall-of-famer in 1970, he's a hall-of-famer in 2012 (ignoring changes in style of play--1000 yards was more impressive in a 14 game season than now, league rules change to make offense easier, etc.). vis a vis, if gale sayers is a hall-of-famer, so are terrell davis and priest holmes. since they aren't, by proxy, gale sayers is a hall-of-famer in name only.

hell, I'll tell you what--if gale sayers had retired with 12,000 rushing yards and never missed a game in his four full seasons, THEN I'd be able to ignore the longevity issue.

You can ask Bearcat if you want. We discussed the rather large possibility of Lehigh beating Duke on the day of the draw here. I also repeatedly called the MU/Norfolk game "a walkover" and a "virtual bye" due to how awful Norfolk St. had been this season.

Both were indicative of the crapshoot nature of the tournament, but there's little question which upset was more surprising.

KU invented basketball = fail.

Yeah, I know the history.... sounds better when revised to state that we invented basketball.

KU also "created" Kentucky basketball and North Carolina basketball. :-)
