    Of course, they all made reprehensible decisions by not getting the authorities involved. As sports fans, there's only one that really matters to us though. What these guys said. And I wonder how McQueary sleeps at night. He needs to resign as well.

    Yeah, I forgot to take into consideration that OU would have to beat #2 OSU for this scenario to be possible. But a loss at home against Texas Tech is much worse than a (road?) loss to Alabama. But I don't see a scenario where a 1-loss Arkansas would be ahead of a 1-loss Alabama.

    Or LSU losing to Arkansas. No, Arkansas would just play for the title then (presuming Stanford and Okla St lost). That'd be a pretty open-and-shut case. How would Arkansas pass Oklahoma in that scenario? Or even Alabama? Arkansas would have more quality wins than OU and a much "better" loss.

    Because he followed the state guidelines for reporting child abuse? Great commentary as always, smack. Hold up here. Are you defending Paterno? Let me guess, you're going to act like defending joe paterno is defending sexual abuse of children. Would you like to tell me what the state guidelines are for reporting child abuse within an organization? I find it quite ironic that a guy who has always been praised for following the rules and doing things by the book is being thrown under the bus for doing that now. Full disclosure, someone close to me was systematically abused by a family member while growing up, and I work with vulnerable youths as a special olympics coach. I abhor sexual abuse of minors. No, I'm not saying that. But he could have helped prevent the abuse of countless other boys who were molested after this incident was reported to him. Forget about state guidelines. He had a MORAL duty to report this to the proper authorities. Do you really think St. JoePa would be canned for not properly following state guidelines in this case after the AD did nothing?

    He wasn't told that, and Sandusky had been retired for three years. So he claims. You really believe the GA told him that he witnessed Sandusky in the shower with a young boy and that JoePa didn't get any details before reporting it to the AD?

    Not sure how A&M is a 4.5 point favorite in Manhattan. Has anyone actually read the AG report on the Penn State scandal? I couldn't make it all the way through. Absolutely sickening. http://www.attorneygeneral.gov/uploadedFiles/Press/Sandusky-Grand-Jury-Presentment.pdf

    Did you sneak a peek at Screech's giant hog?

    Looks like I will be visiting the Phog on 1/23/12. Should be a fun trip. Any of you Jayhawks have suggestions on what we should see/do while we are there? We will probably stay in KC on Saturday & Sunday night and in Lawrence on Monday.

    That article is the best Theoblast yet. It's unbelievable how awesome their approach to everything is. [expletive] this rules :clapping:

    I saw Bill Walton try to sit in a little pay phone booth at DFW airport about 18 years ago. That was funny. I also saw one of the guys from Korn walking through the Phoenix airport when I went to visit my parents for Spring Training one year. He was pretty tall and had his hair in thick braids so he was hard to miss, too.

    Everyone shut up; NOTHING is topping this. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110705120058/glee/images/f/fe/Carlton-Dance-GIF.gif

    So you're not into that whole brevity thing, eh?
  16. Old Style
    WTF is that word?
  17. Old Style
    Dave Martinez is my first choice. I'd be happy with Sveum or Francona. I'm intrigued by Mike Maddux, although I'd prefer him as our pitching coach. Don't think the Rangers would let him get away for a lateral move, though. In the end, I will trust Theo no matter who he chooses.
  18. Old Style
    Who? I assume you mean Frank Zappa Maddux and not Greg, right?

    The guys on ESPN 1000 are reporting that the Cards have been given permission to interview Sandberg to replace LaRussa. I know most everyone here does not want him to manage the Cubs, and I agree, but I would hate to see him in that uniform.

    Highly doubt they'd rematch us in the same place we just played a month or so ago.

    Wow. Thanks for bringing this back up. I missed it the first time around. Great read.

    Get used to saying this. Maybe our next coach will be able to win the big games.
