I would agree with that, if you mean that I consider no tournament appearance to be unacceptable.

I can't reasonably "expect" that we'll be there for a few years, though.

So Quin has done his job then, huh? No reason to get upset about not making the tournament.

I've actually mentioned this quite a bit on this board... IMO, it sucks to be reduced to rooting against other teams. (I'm not talking about a regular season game... of course people have an interest in who wins or loses those games..... I'm talking about when your team isn't in the playoffs and you're reduced to rooting against other teams). Sure, I do it, because it makes watching games between two team I don't root for a better experience... because I can get into it. That said, it still sucks, because I'd rather see my team playing than watching someone else's team.

The shirt is a joke. Of course when you are the butt of a joke you don't find it as funny as the rest of us do. And this is why the joke is so amusing, because of the tantrums it illicits from the teary-eyed Jayhawk fans. Perhaps I should have ordered a case or two of blue and red pacifiers to go with it
Again, there's no anger. There's no tears. We've already lost to Bucknell. You're not going to make it worse.

By all means though, keep believing that you wasting your money on a tshirt is causing Kansas fans pain. It makes it funnier for us.

He lost 3 starters last year and had a young team this year. He did the best he could have done. Am I saying I am happy about this year? No I wish they made the NCAA. But you have to look at the team they had.

Last year they should have made it but with the Clemons saga going on and then Paige Sports it drains your team.

I know it is not the big dance but they did make the NIT.

Big deal. We can pull out plenty of excuses for KU this year, as well. Face it, neither team lived up to expectations. Therefore, both seasons were failure. Of course, Mizzou's was a much bigger failure. :p

To be ok with and try to tell me that its ok that the University of Missouri did not make the NCAA tourn is foolish.

For something that does not bother you, you sure are squawking a lot about it.

Now as far as being reduced to rooting against a rival, you are comparing apples and oranges.

Even when teams I support have winning seasons I still enjoy seeing a hated rival lose and lose in a way that is extremely humiliating (such as being beaten by a team from a conference which has never won a NCAA Tournament game, and has only five scholarship players who do not have scholarships for athletics but for academics, which means not only did they beat you at basketball they could whip KU’s butt’s in the classroom as well).

One does not negate the other.

Wrong. MU was not expected to do anything this year. And yet they did.

KU was expected to win it all and yet they bail out it the first round.

SO of course KU is the much bigger failure.

MU did live up to their expectations and exceeded it. KU failed.

Last year MU yeah they failed. But the expectations were higher for KU this year then MU last year so Of course KU was the bigger failure.

That is in the eye of the beholder, having the biggest loss in school history would seem to be the bigger failure.

Good job! :thumb: I think the problem with the tshirt is that that it's all about Bucknell's accomplishment.... it's not smack against Kansas at all. It would be much more effective if you could put that on a tshirt.

I was just randomly thinking about this part, and I can think of some hilarious smack against my teams..... I thought Taco's Cubs logo that spelled Chiefs was really funny... as well as the "Coaching for idiots" book being held by DV.

They did? What did they do? Produce a 16-16 record and sneak in to the NIT, and then lose to DePaul at HOME? (and only sold 5k tickets to the game) They sucked, plain and simple. They did nothing of value.

Yes, KU was expected to go far. Yes, KU was the bigger failure. However, MU failed as well. They did things this season they haven't done in quite awhile. Finish in the bottom half of the conference, finish without a winning record, LOSE TO K-STATE TWICE!!!!

BTW, funny how you didn't show up during the season AT ALL. You talked some smack in the preseason, and then disappeared, predictably. Now you are back again your reeruned semantics.

Just trying to lay low. As you can see I was right about KU. I made my comment laid low and I was correct.



MU was not a failure. It was not a success either if it makes you happy.

What gives with that? KU fans are no better or no worse on average than fans of any other teams. Every team has loyal and supportive fans; every team has their share of morons.... :shrug:

KUs fans are simply in the spotlight more. Look me in the eyes, and tell me Mizzou fans are truly any better.... :hmmm:

Someone? Anyone, have a response that is something other than a variation on "KU sucks"?

DJay23 03-24-2005 03:03 PM

I hate the University of Missouri.

I strongly dislike most of their fans (at least when they are in Mizzou fan mode). That is the nature of our rivalry. I expect them to get their nipples all hard when KU chokes in the first round of the tourney. Have your day, because I reserve the right to do the same in return. I think most Mizzou fans are jealous, bitter, snippy little bitches. At the same time I can see why Mizzou fans think Jayhawk fans are arrogant, elitist, snotty assholes.

This thread warms my heart, because it only says that the Border War is alive and well.

I'm not so offended by Mizzou fans buying Bucknell shirts. Spend your money how you like. As Bearcat has stated, you can't make losing to Buck-****ing-nell any worse than it already is.

It happens everytime we have a good old reerun fight... all MU fans are morons, all Kansas fans are arrogant assholes. It will always be like that...


In "real life", I have intelligent conversations with a few Tiger fans, and try to avoid others at all cost due to their stupidity....... likewise, I have intelligent conversations with Jayhawk fans, and wonder why others think the sky is falling after every loss.... oh wait, we're all arrogant assholes :doh!:

Well, I was referring to MU's season last year. But yeah, I get your point about KU losing in the 1st round. I was just making that comment because MU didn't even make the tourney this year and lost at home, in the NIT, to the first team they played.

But we could go on throwing this smack back and forth and never really accomplish anything. So just remember, KU owns you in football the last couple years. :D

BTW, I don't care what you say, most MU fans should expect a tournament appearance every year. Quinn has really drug down that program.

IMO, KU was playing well enough early in the season to win. If they had played in Feb/March like they played in Nov/Dec/Jan, they would still be in the NCAA tourney and would have a #1 seed (not that seeding matters much). For whatever reason, Self couldn't get those guys to play as well as they were capable of over the last 9 games. Going 3-6 over that span was sad, really. And to tell you the truth, I didn't expect KU to get very far in the tournament this year after those last 9 games.

I just hope this isn't a sign of Self's coaching abilities and for the future of the Jayhawks. But in the end, I'm just a fan who has no control over what they. I can only support my team by cheering them on and displaying my Jayhawks crimson and blue. Which I will continue to do (I am still wearing my KU hat and pullover this week).

Good job, dude. But, seriously, where did you get such leet predicition skillz? Face it, if KU had won, you'd be saying - well, yeah, it's KU - they are supposed to beat shitty ass teams like Bucknell. But if KU lost (which they did), you'd look like a genius, except you don't. How can anyone trully predict a 20-1, #2 in the nation team losing in the first round? By pulling some random shit out of their bitter ass and hoping it happens. A lot of poeple like you were also predicting NC and Illinois to lose in the 1st round as well. fucking Nastradamus.

KU overachieved. They won some games they should not have won but they did win nonetheless. KU was just not clicking right. There was something about them that was not right.

That's a huge bump, but that was an epic huge loss possibly the greatest upset ever, until a number one seed loses to a number 16 seed.
