WOW!  You couldn't make this up if you tried.

MISSOURI FOOTBALL

You can take the player out of Missouri but you can't take the Missouri out of the player.

KU FOOTBALL IS BACK ON TRACK

Who predicted that the Jayhawks would win this weekend (probably as many people that predicted that they would lose last week)?  Good news for fans of the program.  Let's just hope that they play with that intensity every week. 

MU FOOTBALL PROGAM = FAILURE

What else is there to say about the past two years for MU football? This was the best crop of talent that MU has had in decades and they weren't able to win a National Title or even a freaking BCS game. If this was college basketball Pinkel would be called a choke artist who can't deliver when it counts.

Have fun rebuilding kitties.

I HOPE K STATE FANS BROUGHT THEIR PURPLE KLEENEX

WAY TO SHOW UP LAST NIGHT FELLAS. NOTHING BEATS LOSING TO AN UNRANKED TEAM. And did I hear Prince mention a 5 year plan? That worked for the Chiefs....

KU FOOTBALL GAME MOVED

ESPN2 has picked up the game vs. South Florida. The game will now be on Friday the 12th at 7pm.

NOT STAYING

Aqib Talib
IS
GONE!

KU WINS

GREAT GAME!

And played out just as I predicted below.
THE FOOTBALL PROGRAM IS OFFICIALLY LEGIT

GAMEDAY

Tonight when KU takes the field vs V Tech it will be the biggest football game in the history of the University.

Things to watch

• This game will not be a 10 point game. It will either be a blow out by Virginia Tech or a 3 point win by KU.
  
• The pressure tonight will be on the the Kansas Defense. The KU offense and VT defense will cancel each other out so it is up to the D to cause turnovers and give the Jayhawks good field position.
• Special Teams will be key. VT has a long tradition of great special teams play and this year is no exception. KU has a good special teams, VT has a great special teams.
  
• KU wants it more. Let's just hope that doesn't equal the same type of nervous start that they had vs Missouri.
• If KU wants to become a respected football program they must win this game. A win here will help in recruiting and validate the turnaround that Mangino has performed.
  

Enjoy and good luck.

Chase Daniel

Todays emails have been humorous to say the least. They were filled of at least he was there, what good publicity for the school etc...

What good ever comes of finishing 4th? Who the hell is going to remember the 4th place finisher in the 2007 Heisman trophy?

"If at first you don't succeed lower your standards" should be placed in the empty trophy case in Columbia.

MU CRIES TO BIG 12 OFFICE

KU MIGHT NOT GET THE ORANGE BOWL.

There is going to be an investigation into how Perkins handled the Orange Bowl negotiations.

KU FACES BIG FINES.

KU ORANGE BOWL TRAVEL INFO

Yahoo has a great travel guide for Miami. LINK

Fort Lauderdale travel guide: Link

ORANGE BOWL TICKETS: LINK
Tickets are going for $150 a piece

From what I have been told it is easier to fly into Ft Lauderdale and stay there than Miami. It is closer to the stadium and a little cheaper.

WHAT A FUN DAY FOR KU FANS

I have never heard more complaining in my life than what is running out of the mouths of MU fans. It almost makes it worth losing at arrowhead. There are emails circulating asking for fans to call the sponsors of the Orange Bowl and tell them that you will boycott their products, calls for the head of the Big 12 to resign and even one idiot that said that KU should give up their slot to MU.

Thank you MU fans for making this Monday so much better than last weeks.

Isn't if fitting that Charlie Brown wears MU colors?

KU TO THE ORANGE BOWL

Many people doubted it but I TOLD YOU that you didn't have to sell your soul to the devil in order for KU to go to a BCS BOWL. I hope that those of you that cheered for MU feel extra dirty today.

POLL RESULTS - BIGGER KU RIVAL

MU BY A LANDSLIDE: 48 VOTES FOR MU. 6 VOTES FOR K STATE.

IF YOU ARE A FAN OF KU

Why would you want to root for MU to win on Saturday? Do not believe the talk about us needing MU to win in order for KU to go to a BCS BOWL, it is false. There are plenty of scenarios that could play out in order for KU to still make it to a Fiesta Bowl.

Cheering for your rival to win the National Title or even the Big 12 title doesn't make any sense at all.

HOW TO SPOT AN MU FUN

GOT JOKES?

The emails have been flowing all week at work, home, text messages, message boards and even in the grocery store check out. Here are some of the better ones I have received over the past 4 days.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A KU fan was driving home from a national taxidermy convention in St. Louis. He got kind of tired and hungry, and decided to pull over to a quaint little bar in Columbia to get a bite to eat.

He stepped inside, and immediately could feel the whole place's eyes on him. It was clear these people didn't take to kindly to outsiders. They were rather rough, country hillbilly looking folk. Just the same, he stepped up to the bar and sat down.
The redneck looking-guy behind the bar eyed the KU fan suspiciously. "What are you doin' here?" he snarled. The KU fan said simply, "I'd like something to eat."

"Who are you?" growled the hillbilly. "Well," said the KU fan, "I'm heading back to Kansas--I just attended the taxidermy convention over the weekend."

All of the eyes in the place were still on him. "Taxidermy? What the hell is that?"

"Well, I clean and mount dead animals."

Immediately the KU fan could sense the tension in the bar start to ease. "Don't worry about it Jimbo," the hillbilly called back into the kitchen. "He's one of us."

Q: What do you call a beautiful woman on the arm of an MU fan?

A: A tattoo

What's the difference between a room full of Mizzou fans and a litter of puppies?
The puppies will stop whining eventually.

A guy walks into a bar in Columbia, sits down at the bar and tells the bartender he has a great Missouri joke. The bartender states, "before you tell that joke, the two guys working the door played football at MU, the other bartender played basketball at MU, and the three guys at the other end of the bar were born and raised here in Columbia. Now I ask you, are you sure you want to tell that joke?" The guy replies, "hell no, I don't want to explain it seven times."

Pink·el [pink - ehl], noun, verb, - ed, - ing

- noun

1. An unexpected sub-par team performance in NCAA football, usually resulting in a untimely and inopportune loss. The game usually features questionable coaching decisions and lack of adjustments.

Jim Tressel pulled a Pinkel when he lost at home against an underdog Illinois team, severely hurting the Buckeye's national championship hopes.

tr.v. pinkel - ed, pinel - ing

1. The completion or ongoing action of a Pinkel.

Mike Gundy stood stoically on the sideline as he Pinkeled away the game to Troy University.

Word History: The word Pinkel started as slang during the 2003 NCAA football season, when a talented Missouri football team traveled to Lawrence, KS and was upset by an unheralded squad that had finished 2-10 the previous season. Missouri went on to finish the season at 8-5, a 3 game improvement, but some questions lingered about Coach Pinkel's ability to match up with his border rival.
The word became an accepted part of the English vernacular during the 2004 season when Pinkel's Tigers, a pre-season Big 12 North favorite, lost in embarrassing fashion to Troy University, a program that just recently attained Division 1 status. Noted football analyst Lee Corso noted Pinkel's lack of adjustments and extreme "deer in headlights" look during the game. The word was applicable throughout the season and every season thereafter. The most egregious Pinkel by the Tigers during 2004 was against the rival Jayhawks, 3-7 at the time and starting their 4th string QB. They came to Columbia and upset a Missouri team still fighting for an opportunity to represent the Big 12 North in the conference championship game.
2005 and 2006 featured examples that cemented the word's meaning.

In 2005, the Tigers lost for the third straight season to the Jayhawks, during a period where the Kansas squad was mired in its worst offensive slump during the Mark Mangino era. The loss once again kept the Tigers from representing the Big 12 North in the Big 12 title game. In 2006, after a 6-0 start, coach Pinkel proceeded to lose a game after a generous pay raise. He also pulled possibly his greatest Pinkel, losing to an Iowa State squad spiraling out of control playing for a lame duck coach. The Big 12 denied Pinkel's request that the game be counted as a "moral victory" due to a controversial holding call near the end of the 4th quarter.
2007 has seen a lack of a Pinkel, as the Missouri coach fights to render the meaning of the word empty. He will get an opportunity in the season's most meaningful game, a match up against an 11-0 Jayhawk squad on a neutral field.
