I nominated this for post of the year! Quality, thy name is Mr. Plow.

The Jayhawk didn't have yellow feet until the 1920's.
The KU student newspaper cartoonist gave him big yellow shoes to kick the Missouri Tiger in the ass.
That's one reason why Tiger fans despise KU. Their mascot has feet only for the sole purpose of kicking a Tiger's ass.

I can feel it coming in the air tonight....

You realize, of course, that the percentage of slave owners in Missouri (and all southern states) was actually quite small; nearly as small as the percentage of current Kansans who aren't descended from inbreeding.

Yeah, that little blue chicken didn't look so tough, but after they added a big pair of yellow pilgrim shoes, man. Scary stuff.

Kansas doesn't practice slavery, they just move sell their house when a black person moves into their neighborhood.

Actually the problem was that the Kansas-Nebraska Act allowed the populace to vote on which to enter the union as. Needless to say besides the home-grown wack jobs, wack jobs on both sides of the question flooded in to "rig" the vote. Take the "true believers" from both sides, send them to a place without well established law enforcement and watch the sparks fly.

You're version of the story is just a bit off.

Coming from a Missourian?!? Heh

it was supposed to be a compromise, only the vote didn't go the way it needed to for the compromise to really be a compromise, right?

ROFL Damn you, that brought out a hearty laugh and tears to my eyes....... :clap:

Yep, Neb was supposed to, and did, vote to go Free and then word came out that the North was flooding Kansas with abolitionists to ensure Kansas was Free also. It wasn't quite like that but a certain number of militant abolitionists came out leading to Topeka and Lawrence among other places. The Slave supporters, mostly coming at least through Missouri, were looking to stop them and they were just as militant. Kind of like sticking Sharon and Arafat on a deserted island with guns.

If nothing has happened in the last two and a half decades then no I wouldn't consider these two programs strong at all. They are getting better but please.

Rivalries are fun.

But we, AMERICANS, were on the right side of moral relativity with that one. Pin it on your chest! I am glad we dropped the bomb on them, BABY.

Think I am kidding? Look at my Avvy a little closer.


P.S. Wasn't Truman from the great state of Missouri? (rhetorical)

Yes, but Kansas has the Kansas motor speedway where all the southerners like to hang.

It is amazing I have to keep going back to this but KU has not played anyone. Their ranking is one that is based on a cream puff schedule. I give them credit for winning all their games but really take a look at the schedule and if you can tell me it is as difficult as Mizzou's I would be in disbelief.

Most of the Tiger fans I know while they respect the no losses that KU has feel that KUs ranking is based on nothing more then them not losing to teams they SHOULD beat. Your non con schedule was an embarasment. Not one school from a BCS conference even. Your conference scheduled perfectly aligned so you did not have to face Tech, Texas or OU. You have played the North schedule and I think we could both agree outside KU and MU non of the others teams is playing v very good ball this year.

Exposed as I used it is meant to show how a joke schedule can lead to a lofty ranking that is smoke and mirrors. Beat Mizzou and I will change my mind, until then it is what it is.
