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?

Per @kenpomeroy KU has the 38th best home foul advantage in recent seasons.
I have a KP account. I looked it up. I’m pretty sure I’m on the right page. So what B12 teams get friendlier calls at home than KU?
#27 OU
#23 KSU
#14 OSU
#10 WVU
#6 TTU
#1 ISU
Copy and pasted
Stopped looking at the thread I started. Those are numbers from all D1 programs? That’s pretty interesting that ISU is #1. Does it explain its’ methodology? I’d imagine it’s a little difficult to quantify because sometimes the hometeam gets calls that are correct so it’s not really a home court thing…
Since I’m not a subscriber, would you be willing to look at UW’s rankings as well as MIchigan States? Thanks!

@bcjayhawk I’m 59 years old and, except for the times we’ve played them, always rooted for Wichita State.
Until they hired Greaseball. I cannot stand him. He repulses me, he’s stupid, can’t coach (Playing weak teams in a weak league don’t make you a good coach. Even the occasional lucky wins vs good teams), he has a giant greasy forehead and I imagine he has bad breath and B.O.
Other than that, he’s ok.

@joeloveshawks the down side if Kentucky ends up in the NIT is they could go on run to more wins than in the NCAA’s. I like that we are gaining on them.
…unless they play Bobby Mo…
I actually get this question more than most being from a smaller community where you pretty much farm or work in the oil patch, a place that’s filled with KSU fans. As noted we didn’t have a ton growing up, we played outside most the time not having cable but the winters were long and back in them days you could watch a good chunk of KU games with bunny ears. I started watching in the mid 90s and have been a KU fan ever since. The first team I remember watching I believe to be the 96-97 team with Pierce, Vaugh, Raef and co. A ton of guys I went to school with back then loved KU basketball and switched to KSU later on but don’t admit it. I just grew up watching and never changed, I wouldn’t change just because KSU has an AG program. Seems kinda silly to me.
@Jayballer54 I was looking for a thread to offer advice or at least express an opinion and find out about expensive Christmas presents and the Hokey Pokey Ballad. Still going to make an observation here…
In the last week we had a couple of great wins and we are setting alone at the top of the league for an incredible streak. It should be an Oh, happy day.
Then I see other threads on what will happen next week when we shoud be discussing tomorrow’s game or nothing at all. Another post is about can’t hardly wait til next year because of the great recruits.
I’m not concerned about OU (today) and I guarantee Bill is not making it an issue of that game. I am happy recruiting is going well but for now I’m just enjoying the moment thanks to coach and our boys.
Oh, happy day.
