Another Point of View

I should add, are all Kansas fans like this? Is this some form of fraternity initiation rite? Are drug hallucinations part of being Kansas Jayhawk fans? Is the coed still alive, or have they put her quietly away?

Oh well! Can't say that I've received a warm welcome. You may not even remember James H. Hilton but I'm proud. The Big 12 Conference acknowledges that officiating errors were made and they were made both ways or for and against both teams. However, the attitude that appears to be growing in your fanbase certainly is not good. Some say this is a reflection of the coach or administration. I sincerely hope not.

You Sir are no James H. Hilton. You appear to be more of a Paris Hilton. But carry on. Let the Troll Fest continue, Derpmaster Derp.

I doubt you come back to respond, however I must ask......did you read the statement from the Big 12? They were very specific about when the errors occured. At the "end of regulation". Go back and read it again. Now, knowing that, tell us....what officiating errors were made against KU at the "end of regulation"?

Ya know what? I am ok with this loss now, because like our dismantling of the BCS hopefully this helps dismantle the throne of the mighty KU? Is it actually possible that something good might come out of this? Or am I now, 3 days out, truely and utterly insane?

Bill Self has spoken! It must be true!

Was this the thread that quoted Self in a newspaper article?

Unbelievable that a coach with that reputation went right to the message board mook defense.


"Well yeah, but an hour ago Withey had to go sit down for a while because he got his seventh foul in the first half".


I wish they would have asked him about shoving Withey back out on the floor when he was heading to the bench with his "fifth" (har har) foul.

What was up with that, Bill?

I think you blew your chance to be in the next sportmanship commerical.

Your school is full of ********* crooks...always has been, always will be.

This pretty much sums it up. I'm surprised KU hasn't gotten an SEC invite just based on this aspect alone...

My paternal family has lived in Lawrence for five generations. I grew up near Allen Fieldhouse and have known the Kansas coaches on a personal level. I am related to Hilton through my maternal family from North Carolina. He was an awesome individual, and I'm sure he is very proud!

I'm not related to Hilton myself, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Well, I am not related to Hilton either, but I did stay at a Hilton last night.

This, this is what you should have said.

What do you have to say about Young taking Withey's 5th foul for him? That was very poor sportsmanship and classless. In the Big 12 golf tournament do we need to have a scorer follow the KU players to make sure they count all of their strokes and don't roll their ball in the rough?

I don't blame the players for this at all. The wrong player raises their hand numerous times in a season in an effort to pull the wool over the offiicals. Even the dumbest of officials catch it. I hate KU as much as the next guy but the issue here is with the officials.

Why not?
Your overall point is correct but why not?

Because I played sports. It's no different than grabbing a jersey while playing defense. If the officials don't catch it I'm not going to stop out of some sort of guilt or sportsmanship.

yeah, i am not above admitting that if our player had done it, i would have been giggling, however, i would have the stones to say that the officials absolutely were idiots for not getting it right.
