My 6 year old came home singing this, which he picked up at school. I guess theres a clapping game that goes with it. I enjoyed the regional variations in the reddit thread.

I wonder if you guys have encountered any similar spoken word things (or other things) that varied greatly by region?
@wissox Great pos /Great topics. I’m so glad you posted this, some seem to believe that our Basketball and Football are all that matters- - —& that’s fine I have no problem what so ever with that, & I’m right there with them However I started following the Volleyball team several years back and our Soccer a few years back and both represent KU very well
Mercy the Volley ball is very exciting some really athletic ladies , very talented. Just to fill you in on them the Volleyball was actually predicted to win the Big 12 last season and have been making the NCAA tourney pretty regular- - was ranked in the top 25 last year and pre-season like $ 12 or 13 this season they are good. - - New Coach this year after our Coach retired after like 26 yrs gonna be missed but we pulled the Oregon Coach away so don’t think any let down as Oregon always has a good team also. They open play ?Saturday also at Like 3 o’clock right there somewhere I’m sure on ESPN Plus fun to watch , looking forward to it.
As far as the Soccer ladies , we actuall y made the NCAA tourney last year , and we won the Big Twelve Tourney, now there are some ladies that got some stamia I tell you one or two trips up and down the pitch I’d be done lol-- anothr really good team & yes opened with a 5-2 win- - Thanks for posting this really appreciated- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG
The big thing is that they volunteered they would be taking no revenue, none , zero , zelch in the first five years . Offered a absolutely no risk clause as to where if at te end of the Contract and they showed us where they wee bringing NOTHING to the league at all, they would or we could boot them out no questions asked.
The big thing is they are on probation AGAIN. Do we really want something like that ? putting more back eye perspective from general public ? I don’t know each school getting around that extra three million-- money speaks pretty loud, Big corporate partnerships – – Fed - Ex— -Home Depot. I Don’t know , does pro’s out weigh the cons ?
This baseball team is having a great season. Playing in the semifinals tonight of the league tourney, 6:30 possible regional host as well. Saw one prognosticator having them as a 2 seed in their regional which is different than 2 seed in basketball. It’s kind of like a sweet 16 seed.
I don’t work for Weber, I promise, but I’m gonna sing their praises. You get what you pay for and after throwing away some piece of crap that lasted a year in Louisiana humidity I bought a 300 dollar Weber Spirit. That was in 08. I’ve replaced the drip/flavor bars once. That’s it, still works beautifully. Even heat, amazing grill. I just unscrew the gas when it’s not working right and screw it back on and it works well.

Honestly I believe this to be generally true. For all the bad things you can point to, there are positive things about living now compared to a hundred+ years ago.
At the risk of bringing up politics when I saw the 90 day pause I placed a large tea order from Fortnum and Mason. I will say if you are a tea drinker (I always have been, I know some prefer coffee) Fortnum tea is truly bucket list stuff and it really isn’t badly priced compared to other premium tea options.
UConn Women’s BB just won national championship
This is their 12th title under Geno A, incredible performance.
They beat 3 #1 seeds in the NCAA tournament this year.
They beat teams by 30 + points, total dominance.
Paige Beckers will most likely be #1 pick in WNBA draft, just heard her interview with Holly Row, very humble individual.
@rockchalkjayhawk not real sure what you’re so worked up about. I LIKE napping to golf. The announcers speak in hushed monotone voices and its conducive to good naps. Sorry my nap routine is so upsetting ro you.
