Missouri stole our drum!

In their post-game celebration, the Misery football players were banging on what appeared to be a KU band drum. As if the low class Mizzou fans throwing whiskey bottles at our band in Columbia was not bad enough, now, their football players steal our drum.

And your #11 (LOL) basketball team has to play in an empty arena because the only game you guys show up to is when KU rolls into town. Our football stadium fills more people proportionally than your basketball arena, and our football team is abysmal. MU fans are the best!

Uh...WTF are you talking about?

We have very solid attendance at Mizzzou arena, especially strong during the conference season.

Columbia isn't a basketball town, so fans tend to be fairly sparse during the early season games that don't mean anything. So you're right, we can't compare to Kentucky and Kansas for non-con games because the fans aren't interested in a glorified scrimmage. There's also still some residual damage from Quin Snyder - locally the guy was garbage and it reflected on the entire towns view of the BBall team. They're coming out of the darkness there, but you don't really understand the damage he did unless you live here. Trust me, it was extensive.

However, our conference attendance is very good and our overall attendance is just fine (40th in the country last season). Oh, and not to mention the fact that MU carried the 2nd longest home winning-streak in the nation last season before its loss to A&M.

But leave it to the beakers to start talking basketball when they get their asses handed to them in football. We get it - you don't care about football unless your team is doing well.

I wonder how much you'd care about basketball if your basketball team ever struggled.

I suspect I know the answer.

Oh, I care about football just like many other Jayhawk fans, I was simply trying to give your friend a little perspective. I just find it very amusing how MU fans somehow think they have good fans. If your football team was doing as bad as ours, the attendance would probably be worse than what you see at Memorial Stadium, lol. I saw MU fans start leaving in the 3rd in 2004 in person, but I don't think you guys were ranked that year, I may be wrong.

It is easier to make it when the Athletic Dept. writes a check to bribe the bowl committee. Now most of those people are gone and/or under investigation. I got 4 tickets to the Orange Bowl, seats on a charter flight, and hotel for free because we do business with KU. Lew had to give stuff away because he had to cover his ass.

Once again - we do not compete with Kansas because it's not a basketball town.

And say it's not true all you want, but everything is relative. Relative to the rest of the country, MU's attendance figures for their home basketball games is just fine.

Our football team sells out weekly, our basketball team is well above average. Both teams are ranked and going in the right direction. Oh, and fortunately we have managed to go the last 12 months without having made a national embarassment of ourselves with either our head coach, our ticket scalping alumns or our athletic director.

Yeah, that's an amazing picture of our stadium in the 4th quarter of a blow out. No fan base ever does that, no sir. Lord knows MU would never do that. LOL. And no, it's not embarrassing to see an empty stadium in the end of a dead game. Shit, even the best fanbase in the NFL has had a half-empty stadium the last couple of years. That's what losing perennially does to fans. That's true for all fanbases, even the vaunted MU fans.

It's been a long while. But KU fans didn't fill up the house for basketball games during the sunset of the Ted Owens era. MU had won 4 consecutive BBall titles and OU and Tubbs were running the Big 8 into the ground in the early to mid 80's.

In order to offset that KU fired Owens and hired Larry Brown. It took him 3 years to win the Big 8. They haven't looked back since.

Like Baylor putting up 7,000 for it's home opener this year? Or Pittsburgh putting up 9,000?

MU's a solid basketball school and that's it. It's not going to sell out games against 'scrimmage' schools, even when well ranked. And In case you haven't noticed, we still have a football season going on as well. That's where the attention of the town is.

Your point seems to be that KU is a better basketball school than MU...afterall that's always a Beaker's point, regardless of the conversation. I'd imagine the next time you can't hold your wad, you'll bring this up. But I'm unsure what point you believe you're proving here.

Yes, KU has a better BBall program. But given my choice, I'll take our athletic program over yours without thinking twice right now.

It's common sense. These holier than thou hypocritical douches like Pitt Gorilla and co know this as well, they're not stupid.

I'm honestly surprised that MU isn't filling Paige to the brim. I can understand that it's not a "basketball town" and I don't expect them to come watch and support their mediocre teams, but when your team is #11, I would think that would garner something.

So what about Pittsburgh? What about Baylor?

If it's not a school that prides itself on its basketball program (i.e. Duke, Kansas, Syracuse, etc...), the basketball team simply isn't going to draw exceptionally well during football season against sub-standard schools.

Now, I'll start to criticize in a few years if the fans haven't come back. As I said previously, you had to be in Columbia to understand the vitriole that Snyder brought onto this program. Even when he was gone, his kids were still out there getting in bar fights and other such nonsense. The basketball program's name was mud around here because of Snyder. Hell, then we had the garbage with the Paige Sports Arena and the attempts by Kroenke and Laurie to black-ball Norm Stewart.

The fans were somewhere well beyond pissed with the basketball program. Anderson's slowly bringing them back. The fans issues with this team went well beyond wins and losses. If Anderson gives us a couple more seasons with good kids and strong teams, the fans will forgive them.

But don't act like you can speak to the fans here without knowing the background. It was more than the records that created this and it will take more than records to get us back to the Stormin' Norman days. I believe they'll come around, but it takes time.

Sooo, the point you are trying to make is that you would be embarassed if you went to Missouri and their arena isn't sold out nightly since they are on the cusp of being top ten? And from that, you are making the statement that MU fans suck because they aren't supporting a winning team? Well, my question then would be - is the arena two thirds full? Half full? Crickets in the stands? Or are the seats actually sold, and nobody is occupying them for whatever reason (out of state, out of city, etc.)? And what is the actual attendance in regards to filling the place? A hundred empty seats up top? Show me a pic where the arena is a ghost town during a game this year.

Lost to MU 35-7, not exactly complete annihilation. And Nebraska did all they could to make a score look better than 20-3 and couldn't do it.

:thumb:

ku fans shouldn't really expect much better than this year.

[DJ's left nut]

OK, fair enough. I can understand that. I'm sure that could happen anywhere and nobody is safe from a program being dragged through mud by a sleazeball. Your points about Baylor and Pittsburgh are also pretty good. Well, I don't know about Baylor, but Pittsburgh for sure. Baylor is in its own category.

P.S. Can you please tell your retarded dog ezbate to stop barking?

Y'all have been disregarding the local leash laws when it comes to Wickedson since his arrival and don't get me started on Arrowhead Hawk or Jaz.

Besides until the Bugeater puts a Halti on LiveSteam, none of us need worry about it.

Why would I do that?

I want a Sugar, Rose and Fiesta now.

It's going to be like that in college football from now on until they change the bowl system.

MU has a good team this year and it's a shame that they'll just be going to another bowl in Texas instead of making some noise in some kind of playoff scenario.

KU FOOTBALL! WE DON'T GET COMPLETELY ANNIHILATED!

Honestly, I just shook my head throughout it.

All I could think the whole time was "fucking Texas Tech..."

I said it before, I'll say it again - MU football is in the best shape it's been in arguably in its history because of Gary Pinkel. At the same time, that MFer tries my patience sometimes.

I'll never understand what happened in Lubbock. That game cost them the North and that's just a swift kick in the nuts. It wasn't a loss to a quality opponent like Nebraska or OU, but a loss to a fucking also-ran because we didn't show up.

Ugh...fucking Texas Tech...

lol.

I really hope MU makes it to a BCS game one of these years. It really is a great experience.

I don't want to "make a BCS" game. I want to earn one. That said, if its not the NC game, and it doesn't help our team recruit down the line, I don't care what bowl it is.

You guys are just jealous. As everyone knows, when you're "on top" like KU teams are going to come gunning for you. Dance, Jay Sean, dance.

Sooo, the point you are trying to make is that you would be embarassed if you went to Missouri and their arena isn't sold out nightly since they are on the cusp of being top ten? And from that, you are making the statement that MU fans suck because they aren't supporting a winning team? Well, my question then would be - is the arena two thirds full? Half full? Crickets in the stands? Or are the seats actually sold, and nobody is occupying them for whatever reason (out of state, out of city, etc.)? And what is the actual attendance in regards to filling the place? A hundred empty seats up top? Show me a pic where the arena is a ghost town during a game this year.

OH SHIT METROPANTS WE'RE TALKING BASKETBALL JUST LIKE YOU SAID WE WEREN'T DOING

Announced attendance for your last game was 6,361 which about 42% full. And, no, we're not talking about basketball, we're talking about fan bases and trends.

I'm really not that bothered by the Tech loss. Yeah, we would have won the North without it, but I'm not sure we would have beaten OU for a 2nd time this season.

Another B12 CCG loss would have hurt, and we probably would not have improved our bowl standing at all with a loss. A&M would still take the Cotton, leaving the Alamo/Insight/Holiday toss-up.

That's pretty much it.

I think MU could be an upset team. Perhaps a 3-6 ranked team.

Based on talent they SHOULD have been top 10. They underachieved.

There is no legitimate excuse for dodging a NCAA playoff system...

Ok, if true, point to you. However, I wouldn't damn the entire fanbase because they didn't pack the house to watch Arkansas Pine Bluff get demolished, especailly on Thanksgiving weekend.

I realize I'm ice skating up a hill when it comes to debating this subject with a KU fan, fans that generally base their self worth on how their basketball program is going.

Wait so let me get this straight... you wouldn't blame a fanbase for not showing up to see a non-con game their #11 team is playing because that's OK. But a fanbase that's tried to actually show up during a rebuild year of a terrible team and leaves the stadium during yet another blow out is just a shitty fanbase? Am I understanding you correctly?

No, you're not. I was making my points about Mizzou basketball, not KU football. KU football fans have generally always been fair weather. And if you want to talk to me about fans being loyal to a program (MU not filling the stadium), then include the KU fans that walked out on the Mizzou game. And you're going to have to further define "Tried".

Have you read my previous posts? Seriously? Am I talking to a wall? What is so hard to understand about the fact that any program is going to have trouble filling seats when their team is struggling, let a lone being dominated in almost every game? I guarantee you that if MU was getting blown out game in and game out, all these amazingly loyal MU fans would all of a sudden find better things to do on Saturdays. It is not hard to fill a stadium when your team is having success or even has a chance to be successful. DJ's nut explained to me why your other successful program is having issues, and that's why I'm not calling your fanbase shitty any more. It has nothing to do with football or basketball, it has everything to do with how successful a program is or rather unsuccessful. If your program sucks enough, people will not want to go see the weekly beatings.

P.S. By trying I mean an announced attendance of 40,851 (roughly 80%) during the CU game - a point in the season where everyone knows this team is going to lose yet people decide to show up (thankfully they won that day).

That's not my point at all, and I'm sure you know this because you're far from stupid. My point is that you can't blame a fanbase for not filling up a stadium for a team that is a gimpy cellar-dweller with a rich tradition of being one. THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN no matter where you look. You CAN, however blame a fanbase for not showing up to support an up and coming, #11 ranked program.You prefer bandwagon fans?

I'm not sure I understand the "KU's support is pathetic" argument. Of course it's pathetic. The product put on the field is pathetic, and the attendance will reflect that. KU is no different than any other school (or professional sport) in that regard. Shitty product = shitty support.

What sucks are schools that don't fill up stadiums (or gyms) when the product is good because the fans insist they're "not a [insert sport here] town."

Yeah, there's a few B12 schools I'm looking at here...

[Pitt Gorilla]

If it's not a school that prides itself on its basketball program (i.e. Duke, Kansas, Syracuse, etc...), the basketball team simply isn't going to draw exceptionally well during football season against sub-standard schools.You could have stopped there.
