@dylans i dont think anyone here would blame him for going for it. It was the right choice.

Wollp. I take full blame. Kansas looked like dog ass every minute i watched.

@Crimsonorblue22 yeah not going for it seemed pretty wussy.

Well for better or worse this will be decided in regulation

@wissox sorry, i was embracing the unintended pun. I started watching when we were up 21-6, so i am as about as bad luck as it comes. About to leave, expect a bounce back shortly

@wissox are you saying they are injured?

@Jhawk69 there was a precedent in the Bill Self era fot skilled slow unathletic bigs on some of his less functional rosters

Warching the Chiefs. They showed “Jimmy Donaldson” under MrBeast. Wonder if he is trying to rebrand himself or if thst was the networks decision. If the latter, it seems they missed the point in bringing him on.

@BShark running into some of that too, my mom is very stubborn and frail and not following any safety guidance from doctors or my brother who is a physical therapist. In the end, we have to let people make their own choices. She will never go to a home and some day she will have another major issue with the way her house is arranged and thats ok. Hang in there man.

The team, including Juan, but to a man, felt broken at a certain point without a way to fix. Agree Juan wasnt good by the end of the season, but I’m not faulting him for it.

Man, I’m so sorry @BShark

@dylans Flory is going to have a Joel Embiid year.

Gonna go with Tyshawn

Didnt watch game. Not paying espn. Will evaluate options.

@rockchalkjayhawk dajuan, then aaron miles, jacque vaughn, kirk, and … frank?

@Jhawk69 We were up, we had them on the ropes. We had match point. We looked like the better team for much of the game.

@wissox as always, pretty sure this group could talk about anything. Lets get to the pointsettas! Im warming up with other peoples flower puns: https://www.1800flowers.com/articles/flower-facts/flower-puns

Jesus. These announcers are annoying af. We should have won.

Was a fan of Trevor Ariza’s game. Not long ago.

Just took second set from #2 penn stats. Game on!

Who knew by adding Bland things would get so spicy?

If we get the same content but on delay on espn+ i might suggest tape delayed watch parties.

In other news , the combination of my vpn and my browser autocomplete has made espn.in my default espn. I am amazed at either the popularity of chess and badminton in india, or how much espn is pumping it. https://www.espn.in/badminton/story/_/id/46056517/stopping-slide-indian-badminton-crossroads-future-going-look-like

Todays admirals are tomorrows pirates…

Lots of new talent was on display last night. Exciting.

@Crimsonorblue22 wow!

@wissox defense heard you

Season opener on plain old fox channel, nice!

Yesterday’s pirates are today’s admirals.

@Texas-Hawk-10 and being runner up to Georgetown and Florida actually feels like runner up, not in second position but a lap behind like vs. Nike flagship schools (Duke, UK)

Harrison twins? No thank you!

@Kcmatt7 said in KU received 300 million gift from donor.:

THE MF’n BOOTH

booth

I really hope we can build some good positive memories with the crew this year.

Big gains for Flory.

@Texas-Hawk-10 nice! Ruffles should start a twitter campaign over there…

Brussels has bridges!

I knew when that kid shot at housekeeping with a bee bee gun he was trouble.

Where do basketball addicts go for help? Bill take note.

Is it KU sports time yet or what?

@BShark sad to hear. We are here for it if you need to talk about it.

Prob stuff youve seen: hacks season 1, chernobyl, the wire, the last of us, the pitt

Nice!

@SlimShaddy54 these are all 26 guys right? Next year guys

@BShark i think lots of people have had digestive issues of various degrees of severity. Whatever happens i hope it settles down for him and it becomes predictable and manageable.

@BShark ugh hope it isnt too intrusive, good luck.

@BShark best outcome! Whew. Glad to hear.

Is that a real pic? Lol

@Texas-Hawk-10 sweeeet

@Texas-Hawk-10 absolutely. Thank you for engaging with me on this. I wish i could have done the 1-2 hours out but these two were extremely bold. They say girls are more inquisitive and males usually more cudly but that (having very inquisitive rats) proved to be a double edged sword.

@Texas-Hawk-10 you said all the things beautifully. Opal was a lovely soul. Lily was a lump. Despite massive tumors Opal still got around remarkably, and she never bit a soul. When they injected her to put her to sleep she screeched, and then licked the vet’s fingers. When they were young they were remarkably athletic. Opal used to swing in the bars on the top or the cage and use them as monkey bars to get across the cage. I am not ashamed to admit that i cried a bit today. Mostly, I dont like being the angel of death to choose to end an energetic, intelligent and loving creature.

@rockchalkjayhawk I got them for my son. He pleaded for them and then lost interest, most completely when they got tumors. They became my pets thereafter. We have cats too.

I will differ slightly from @Texas-Hawk-10 in saying that at least in my experience the rats are higher maintenance than cats because they are supposed to be out of the cage for an hour a day, especially when living single, and are extremely active, and chasing around a rat isnt where i am in life so Opals daily out of cage time was shorter than i would have liked and usually involved me holding her while she tried to houdini my hands or groomed herself.

Theres my full disclosure. If i were a kid I would want a rat, but preferably a neutered male I think. And i think neutering also costs about $500 but limits cancer. So thats a hidden cost.

One a couple months ago, the other just now. They both had massive tumors. Apparently its almost inevitable with female rats. Cancer is a bitch, but more of a bitch for rats.

RIP Opal and Lily
