The fucking that KU took at the hands of the refs was as bad as I’ve ever seen. I used to know the numbers but I think it was like the calls were 6 straight charges that he took. Nobody. Ever. In the history of man fucking kind takes that many charges cleanly. Especially his slow ass.

As a guy that’s had more than one shot blocked in his basketball career it can get in a guys head, especially if you put together a good move and the defender is so much better than your best he sends it to the third row. It’s better (usually) to keep it in play but I know why he does it. Especially as horrifying as he is anyway.


Best part is when we sent some no-nothing freshman white guy in there and ate his soul. I used to have a picture from above of Aldrich blocking his stupid ass and the look on his face is one of the most gratifying things I’ve ever witnessed.

You can tell he’s thinking “alright Kaun, Arthur and Jackson aren’t around. We need this bucket. Watch this, fool. ...WHAT THE FUCK?” :-)

First...:-)Second **** Duke and Self is a "good" coach:-)

Okay, I feel better now.

Just because your team has a HOF coach doesn't mean we don't also have a HOF coach. Duke almost always has more pure talent than KU. Yet, Self consistently gets more out of his players than Duke. We don't need God's help to smack your team around this year in the tournament. Your going to be toast. Go:-)

I'm going to the Oklahoma State game tonight at Allen Fieldhouse. Someone help me out on a place to eat that isn't The Wheel. Something a little better than bar food but not 5-star dining.

Burgers: Burger Stand @ Casbah (on Mass St)
Street Tacos: Taco Zone (8th St between Mass and New Hampshire)
Wood-Fire Pizza or Sandwiches, etc: Limestone Pizza (on Mass St)

Also, Free State Brewery rarely serves anything bad + ya know, their beer

Except for the turnovers. He is kind of a bonehead sometimes. A lot of people are bashing him (and he did have a bad game at Baylor) but I think he's gonna be a good player. He just seems to be having a bit of a sophomore slump.

Free State, FTW!!

Needs to work on his footwork and dribbling and passing. Pretty much anything on offense where he doesn't have a straight line drive to the hoop or a catch and shoot three. The talent is there, but he seemed to be most worried about improving his shooting in the offseason. There is plenty of time for that. Being more skilled would help him improve alot more.

Big Duke/Patriots/Yankees guy I'm guessing.

I would also recommend Free State.

715 Restaurant (Mass St) is supposed to be pretty good. I haven’t had it though.
[Reply]

Thanks I guess.

Kansas will annihilate Duke if we’re lucky enough to to draw Duke as our 2-seed. Can’t wait to knock K out in the Elite 8 again.

715 is good, but he said we wasn't looking for anything 5-star. Not that they are necessarily 5-star, but 715 is more like a "date night" spot, rather than a beer and dinner spot before a KU game.

A few other spots to consider (if looking for good beer + food) would be Lawrence Beer Co (warehouse district - 7th and Pennsylvania) OR Fields & Ivy (right off of 23rd st, just past Haskell on the north side of 23rd)

The Louisville Cardinals will win it all this March! Both Women and Mens!
[Reply]

Yeah. That's not gonna happen.

Along with Burger Stand (it's where I go every time I'm back in Lawrence), I'd recommend The Mad Greek, Zen Zero, Encore Cafe, Rudy's (if you're in the mood for Pizza) and if you're looking for some Tacos (and drinks after the game), I'd highly recommend Fuzzy's. It's a chain, but I spent a lot choice 2 am nights there in college - good times.

If you're staying tomorrow morning I'd recommend going across the bridge and checking out Levee. Great breakfast food.

Anyone ever get tix in the general admission section? I found cheap tix and thought I would take my son and daughter. Just don't want to be sitting in a madhouse. I'm too old for that.
