“We love our coach, but you have to create plays for the players you have. They needed to make their tackles. We are happy for you guys, but you have to understand that this was not the Nebraska of old. We’re rebuilding.”
“We had zero running game. Our offensive line couldn’t give the quarterback time to throw or any holes to run the ball through.”
“Execution. They didn’t seem to have their heart in it. They started too slow and just couldn’t get going.”
“Nebraska got their butts beat. That’s what went wrong, and I hope it’s another 38 years before they beat us again.”

Hannibal, I'm just glad you're back; I hate to think of you having to eat so much fast food on the road.
night all.

The French...er...French cuisine is certainly over-rated. They are such a rude, dirty, little people. Personally, I can't stomach any of them (lucky for them). Muslims-French,who gives a crap who wins. France is certainly the toilet of Europe. I hope I never have to go there again - cultureless bastards! Damn, don't get me started.
Touche - like anyone will ever hear of Bucknell again. I'm sorry we had to contribute tio their 15 min. of fame. Give us three seasons for Self to learn the fast-transition game. If he can't, we skin him alive...slowly. (He puts the lotion on his skin...)
E_M Right on! I love right turns!
Actually, having a couple of crappy seasons makes you appreciate the wins. We really expected KU to be in the final four for years.
Nebraska is learning to appreciate what they had for over 30 years.

I don't care what went wrong, I'm just happy KU won. Another bonus for you Jayhawk fans -- Touchdown Tuesdays at the Kansas Union Bookstores -- 5% off for each touchdown KU scored the previous Saturday. Should be some good shopping deals. Personally, I never buy there unless there is a big discount because they are so expensive, but they have some really nice Hawk "stuff."
Looking through the posts it appears someone has a lot of time (and personalities) on their hands today :) Not saying that's a bad thing, unless they start arguing with themselves and then it get just plain wierd :-P
btw, Hannibal, Paris? Did you enjoy the French cuisine? (No menu details are necessary :)

Bucknell has nothing to do with football genius.
even_money 8 years, 5 months ago
From the sound of things, the Bucknell offensive line might be preferable.
METALQ2 8 years, 5 months ago
Hey, if our roundabouts get worn out we can replace them with Nebraska offensive line
Jayhawk226 8 years, 5 months ago
Bucknell will become a part of the KU history after they win 3 straight national titles.
Let the dynasty begin.

An un-named City Commissioner is wishing to hold a candle light vigil.
Problem is we can't get him to stop walking in circles.

Where's the first meeting to protest the roundabouts? I have some good ideas!

"Kansas idiots", as you put us, have a rich history of fighting for human rights.
As a result, we want to simply take a 'right' ;)
Silence_Dogood 8 years, 5 months ago
You're all Kansas idiots if you can't figure out how to drive in roundabouts. Stop your complaining, hang up your cell phone, and go in the circle. Easy as that, genius!
Purell 8 years, 5 months ago
I'd like to thank anyone who demonstrates against Lawrence roundabouts.
I don't think roundabouts are inherently bad. I think that they've benn used horribly in Lawrence.
peace 8 years, 5 months ago
Off the subject--I would like to thank the people that demonstrate downtown for Peace!
I bet they now how to drive in a roundabout!

E_M, Reminds me of my bi-sexual friend. She can play for either team.
But that was a pretty exciting finish to the Chiefs game.
bearded_gnome 8 years, 5 months ago
E_M, yeah, and nobody celebrates 'orange' 'aqua' or "jungle" [from the old crayon box...you can't get "jungle" anymore! and if you could, you'd have to call it "rainforest.]
"I'm Mr. Blue." sing along...or not.
even_money 8 years, 5 months ago
Don't you find it just a little odd that we celebrate blue one day and red the next?

linux_chick 8 years, 5 months ago
No problem, killjoy. I'm glad you enjoyed them. If anyone else got some pics, you should post a link here, too. I'd love to see.
Yes. This question seems to be worded in such a way that it's kind of deflating of our victory... when our team left no doubt about who dominated.
Whatever.
killjoy 8 years, 5 months ago
linux_chick Thanks for posting the pics yesterday!
I agree we won the battle. We were the better team yesterday! (we also know where all the roundabouts are)
Hannibal_Lecter 8 years, 5 months ago
l_e,
You are absolutely correct abour the planner's stupidity creating increased liability. I would guess that someone probably just picked these contraptions from a catalog without any experience in their appropriate usage.
I spent three days in Paris last week and I found out that the real reason the Muslims were rioting was because of the roundabouts.
Jayhawk226 8 years, 5 months ago
The had a rematch with the Kansas defense.
I'm going to Austin next weekend...see ya'll there!
Rock Chalk!
l_eustacy 8 years, 5 months ago
I think they were dizzy from the roundabouts.
The finest example of stupidity is on the new section of Folks road, between Harvard and Sixth street. both a speed bump and the semi-roundabout. Is snow removal possible here? Only with a shovel - idiots!
Now some idiot has added two-foot boulders to the edge of the curb, next to one of the roundabouts on Harvard.
This all gives the ambulance-chasers who advertise on TV hope though. Wait till the streets are slick and real people have to navigate these unnecessary obstacle courses.
It is all so embarrassing. I had guests from another city last weekend and they asked if our city planner was an ignorant hillbilly.
linux_chick 8 years, 5 months ago
This question sucks. Our team played great yesterday and that's why we won. Period.
