I’ve been telling you folks all season - "Don’t give up on Mahomes, he’s the best in the world " Hopefully you will all get on board with me now… ‍️

My bad. I jinxed ASU

@kjayhawks yes, I am thoroughly enjoying watching the tortilla tossers get spanked.

@BeddieKU23 But, am I deaf? I only hear about basketball $$$

@BeddieKU23 this makes me wonder…is there almost no talk whatsoever about college football NIL or have I just tuned it out? For a few years now ALL I hear about college basketball revolves around how much money they make, what TV commercials they’re doing, etc, etc. I really don’t notice that about football.

@wissox Yeah, don’t get your hopes up about that.

A friend of mine went on a soul-searching journey to Iceland a few years ago. On about day 3 she called me and was just SOBBING. I immediately panicked. I thought she’d been assaulted, robbed, injured - all those things that run through your mind.

It turns out that she was overwhelmed by the natural beauty that she saw everywhere. Waterfalls. Rivers. Cliffs. Lush greenery. The ocean. She said it was incredibly beautiful!

I’ve wanted to go since then, but the timing (and the money) hasn’t worked out yet.

@wissox Just out of curiosity, why Switzerland? Do you have ancestors from there? Did you have an old girlfriend from there? Did you win a trip on The Price is Right?

@wissox I can help you with this - try the Swiss cheese. It’s holy. Also, Swiss Miss hot chocolate is quite lovely. And …oh yeah…they have great army knives.

@FarmerJayhawk If we had won, they could have thrown Samurai swords and hand grenades and nobody would have said a word.

@dylans Thank you, but I’m really happy with the free Android Auto right now.

@approxinfinity Man, that’s too bad. I’m glad it wasn’t worse though. It’s one thing if something happens at a mall or whatever, but it hits home pretty hard when it’s at your own home. Do you have any cameras or security?

@dylans This is way off course, but I just now had a phone call from Sirius XM. I dumped their worthless “service” 3 or 4 weeks ago and they have called or emailed every single day since. I was with them for 18 years and every year I had to battle with them over pricing. Last year I told them “I’m done. Cancel my subscription” The fellow said he would lock in the price ($6.75 for each vehicle) and the price would never change and we would never get another call from them. SOLD!

So last month sometime Capitol One texts us and says “Hey, this charge went from $13.50 to $34. 75. Is that ok?” God bless Capitol One. So I call Sirius, and very politely tell them to shove everything they can find up their thieving asses and I went to using Android Auto. I listen to whatever I want free of charge.

@approxinfinity Shoot, even watching on TV is getting expensive

@kjayhawks True story. In 1995 I was bored out of my mind (it’s a chronic problem in the town where I live) and told my father-in-law that we were taking a road trip. KU and Oklahoma State were playing in Stillwater and it was something to do. They were both unbelievably awful so we weren’t expecting great things, just something to take the edge off of the boredom.

We walked up to the ticket office and basically the lady said - pick your seats, they’re all available. I picked a couple around the 45 yard line and she said “that’ll be $76” I was like - no no no. I don’t want season tickets! (The small college in our town charged $2) We settled for the $19 seats in the end zone.

Anyway, KU won so I guess it was worth it.

@kjayhawks It’s probably because they always have free concessions. All you can eat/drink for free. Plus free clothes.

@mayjay But PB’s benefits were better

@dylans C’mon man, I’m trying to get us another “W”…

@dylans You must be relatively young - within a few blocks either way of 40. The reason I say that (and the reason a loss to KSU antagonizes me so much) is that back in the day the roles were reversed. We absolutely dominated them. But then again so did everyone else. They were LITERALLY the worst team in college football. That wasn’t an opinion, it was fact. There was a lot of serious talk about them just shutting down the program. Then Bill Snyder showed up and ruined the party.

@Crimsonorblue22 It really doesn’t matter. There should never be a weapon of any kind in a stadium/ arena. TT should have to forfeit the game and the win goes to Kansas. Seriously. The only way to stop BS like that is to administer harsh penalties.

Good thing we’re not playing a talented, healthy Detroit secondary

I have been Butker’s biggest fan and supporter from day one. I’m not now. Boot his ass and get the dude from Dallas.

@kjayhawks staff picks are not always the best.

@dylans I don’t care if they call Marshall Hezekiah, Bocephus or Jim. I’d just like to see him play. I’m not dogging Daniels. I just don’t think he’s great. I have a feeling that Marshall could be really special.

@Jhawk69 I’m easily confused. Isn’t it Isaiah Marshall?

@Jhawk69 we’ll never know the answer to that

Life is back to normal. K-State wins and we suck.

@rockchalkjayhawk We beat the Russell Wilson Giants. The Jaxson Dart Giants seem significantly better. (And I still wish we had Skattebo)

@kjayhawks I agree. No one will ever convince me that officiating is ever fair and impartial. As a fan it sounds whiney to blame a game on the refs, but I think the zebras have an incredible amount of influence on the outcome of games.

Also, for whomever is reading, I have been a lifelong Chiefs fan and I get a little out of sorts when they play terrible and stupid. So - sorry.

@kjayhawks They lost. I never blamed it solely on Mahomes. It was a complete team “effort”

@Crimsonorblue22 don’t worry about it

Hmm.

Recipe for losing:

Your QB is your leading rusher (again)

Can’t block. Can’t tackle. Can’t throw on target. Can’t catch. (offense and defense)

Have 100 penalties per game.

@dylans except KU is 4-2 and KC will be 2-3 in about 20 minutes

@dylans lol. The Chiefs have won the last game they ever will win. Done. Finished. Washed up.

If anyone is still wondering why I’m not a big Mahomes cheerleader…

@SlimShaddy54 First half.

@Jhawk69 Funny how my mind works…I look at your comment and all I see is "hot dogs "

@kjayhawks Buuuut…maybe not.

@mayjay Yes, I was washing them. Lol

@Jhawk69 Kicking sounds like golf. When I first started golfing in my mid 20’s I was actually very good. Because of that, i was obsessed with golf. I literally played every day for 3 years. About year two, I started listening to people I golfed with. “Hold your hands this way. Put your right foot in and shake it all about” Instead of doing what I’d been doing, I let their words of “advice” get in my head and I was done. I literally threw a few clubs in the pond and haven’t golfed since 1987.

I would trade everybody on the Chief’s team for the Giant’s RB Skattebo.

@Jhawk69 Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

@approxinfinity I think @dylans last post was 100% spot on accurate. I wish I had thought of it.

@Crimsonorblue22 This game today is the reason I have to quit watching KU. I made up new words today. I yelled so loud I think I actually scared my wife. And then I feel like an idiot for getting so upset over a stupid football game.

@Jhawk69 yes. Give me 40 pt ass whoopins all season long. Oh! That will actually happen too. K-Suck has a worse record than us and they will be us 87-1. If they put their cheerleaders in at halftime.

What ticks me off today is that there’s no one to blame. Can’t blame Daniels, can’t blame the running backs or receivers, Can’t blame the refs. Maybe could blame the sucky defense. Mostly though, it’s just a crappy team.

Never again will I waste 4 hours of my life watching this crap

@Crimsonorblue22 LOL. You’re covering all the bases!

Well F. Bring on basketball

I take it back the worst part of this day is our defense.

Worst part of this day - K-Suck is winning.
