Journal-World wins 34 Kansas Press Association awards of excellence
I don't live in Lawrence anymore but I enjoy reading the online edition of the Journal World. Shaun Hittle deserves lots of praise but so does the whole staff for keeping the newspaper going in difficult times. Congratulations!

Bear-ly worth celebrating: KU blown out by Baylor but ties for Big 12 crown
If the opposition has a good quick guard who can score and play defense we are in trouble. Elijah cannot move fast enough offensively or defensively to make a difference.The Big 12 is down this year and we struggled to tie for the conference title. I think Self has done a great job to get these guys where they are but the Big 12 Tournament and the NCAA Tournament look like uphill battles for this team to me.

Opinion: KU's edge missing against Baylor
This years team is good but just lacks intensity that many other Self teams have had. I project that they will make it to Sweet Sixteen but it ends there. I think the Big 12 is down this year and we weren't good enough to win the title outright. That does not bode well either in the Big12 Tournament or NCAA tourney.

Lawrence couple build an eco-friendly, round home
Let's give these people a break. They didn't ask to have this article written. They are just doing something different and the Journal World reported on it. Eco-friendly is a description not exactly a defined term.

100 years ago: Heads or tails? KU girl chose unusual method to select husband
I have a feeling that Ciddie was a little crazy and made up her Brazillian Count. Her husband that won probably found this out and got out of the marriage as quickly as possible. No ability to fact check a story like this in 1913 but I am sure she was an interesting person. It would be neat to see what happened to her.

100 years ago: Local auto club urges state to create roads legislation
Would love to know the backstory of Mae Hadley and Louis LaTour. It has to be interesting. Are there any other stories in the future that mention it?

Kansas football won’t be fixed quickly
I have been a fan of KU football since the 70's and this statement has been made over and over with every coach. How many coaches since 1970 have a winning record in the last 42 years. The answer is one....Mark Mangino and we ran him off because he was too tough on his players. Let's look at the list of coaches who all have a below .500 winning % since 1970. Pepper Rodgers, Don Fambrough, Bud Moore, Bob Valensente, Glenn Mason, Terry Allen, and Turner Gill. This is every head coach since Jack Mitchell. The odds are that Charlie Weiss will be just another footnote in the history and yes he deserves the opportunity to "fix" it but the question is can it be "fixed" and in a permanent way?

Border Warriors prove mettle
Well written article. I had the opportunity to be there and it was the best atmosphere I have ever seen. We went from despair to joy in a short period of time...it was awesome.

Missouri’s exit would be no great loss for the Big 12
No we do not need Missouri in the Big 12 but the tradition of being with them in sports for over the last 100 years has been good. It has been a great rivalry and it will be missed. MU is free to leave and find that pot of gold they are looking for. I really doubt is out there but it is up to them to make their decisions. We will make our decision which is past any legal obligations to play them based on some contract that the rivalry and the need to play them is over.

100 years ago: Lawrence woman turns tables on mysterious attacker
She must have been pretty sure of her information to come to Lawrence. That would have been quite a trip in 1911 and probably expensive.
