KU Way to take the high road, k"u" - Page 4

Mizzou_8541 · 07-14-2008, 08:28 PM

Sorry if repost, but...

Damn! k"u" does have the classiest fans!

as per the KC Star-

"Henn said KU doesn’t want to be embarrassed by making fun of opponents, diseases like anorexia or a Joe-College shirt that made fun of slavery.

Hold it … KU is playing the race card?

The shirt in question pokes fun at MU having to pick cotton in the lowly Cotton Bowl while KU got to play in the more prestigious Orange Bowl. The front of the shirt reads “Hawk Football.” The back reads, “Missouri, it’s your turn to pick cotton (Nice bowl game).”

In a perfect world, future KU T-shirts should adhere to higher standards, Henn argued, “that we don’t bash our rivals, that we don’t use profanity, that we don’t make fun of diseases.”

Asked afterward if KU wanted to stifle free speech, Marchiony responded, “Well, we believe in free speech — unless it crosses the line.”

Is there really anything you have to say to insult banjo music?

Well, he's wrong.

I choose to like him anyway...

I still like my Public Enemy, NWA, Ghetto Boys, Too Short, and a few spare singles from the late 80's-early 90's.

I understand people from Kansas like basketball.

Just as I understand that people from third world countries like soccer.

Hey now, drunken Germans like soccer and they haven't been 3rd world since like 93...

I didn't realize it was that short a trip from Mizzou to Man U.

Girls, Girls, lets add some perspective to this whole thing.

KU football has been a proud tradition since what, last September?
KU Basketball is superior to 95% of all the other schools for a long time now. They always finish well and it's really the only thing people in that miserable state have to root for.

MU Football has beeen bad for a long time but they always had their fan base. MU Basketball is hot and cold but they do ok.

I guess what I'm really getting around to is that, NEBRASKA SUCKS! Let's hate them while the hatin's good. Sooner or later, they will be good again.

I can appreciate that.

Really, Tim? Just because you don't care about hoops doesn't mean it is irrelevant to the rest of the sports world.

That'll do it...

Bill Calahan is the best thing to ever happen to this state IMHO. Now that NU Fans have had a little bit of the old "Humble Pie" they are starting to realize that there are more things in life then the goddamn Cornhuskers.

I understand that old Jethro out in Valentine NE may be a little depressed about the program as of late, it's all they have out that way. But there's no excuse for that type of crap in the Metro area.

I'd go to a fricken grocery store and the game would be on.
Everyone in the office would always wear red on Fridays. If you chose not to wear red, you had to wear your normal business atire. One day a guy wore a Colorado jersey on Friday, he was sent home early.

Shit like that drives me insane. Suckers Husk and Vise Versa.

If it's not on TV it doesn't count.

Team sports fella. I don't care if a KU athlete wins the 400 meter dash or whatever else.
