Sorry, I got the email. I think it is ridiculous that people can't pony up $10 in a timely manner to someone who paid for the league out of his own pocket. We need to do something about it, but I do not have a suggestion. I'd hate to lose some of these guys, but I want the league to have active members who do respond and who do the responsible thing and pay on time. I'm fine with whatever the decision ends up being. It also shocks me as to who hasn't paid. These guys, for the most part, have been around here since the beginning of this league.

To be fair, KSU had several moments where they had a 5-7 point lead, and blow it at the middle/late of the 2nd half. Basically, they couldn't close the deal. To be fair, tadow is a ridiculous homer. Right, and Coach C is a KSU guy too. Snayke isn't as much a homer as much as he's really into making edgy comments. But you have to give KSU credit. Even if Texas is fading, they're still a strong enough team that beating them(especially in that fashion) on the road is a clear indicator that KSU is a different team. Someone's going to be pissed that they draw them as a 6 seed come next Sunday. Didn't know Coach C was a KSU guy. Glad to not be the only one here. In the end, the majority of us are Cub fans at least.. hahaha.

To be fair, nebraska has only lost two home games this year--KU and KSU. I don't know how confident I'd be of a road win there if I were a Mizzou fan. I'm not confident at all. Mizzou is awful on the road and Doc Sadler's teams give them hell. But for a KSU fan to start chest-beating because they took down a tanking Texas team with a stupid coach, well that's just hilarious. Keep talking Mr. Mizzou. This team started the Big 12 season 2-5. They will finish 10-6 should they do what they are supposed to and beat ISU at home. Meaning, they've gone 8-1 to finish the season. The only loss could have been a W at CU had there been another tenth of a second on the clock. How is that not an impressive finish? In that stretch we've beaten Mizzou and KU at home, as well as have won on the road at UT and at NU which is not an easy place to win. Hell, no road wins are easy in the Big 12. Ask Anderson....

This team is NAILS lately. I know Pullen and Kelly will hurt next year, but we have guys that have gotten minutes that WILL contribute next year. I don't expect us to be down like people here say. I would NOT look forward to playing us in the NCAA's regardless of where we end up. I see anywhere from a 4 should we win out to a 6 or 7. They picked a great time to be playing the way they are.

That's some real logic there. I love how Mizzou basketball is all high and mighty due to having more fans that post on NSBB than the one lone KSU fan. Oh, and we were going to suck when Beasley and Walker left, but finished 4th in the Big 12 the following year. Kelly and Pullen are the 2 best players we have and they'll be gone next year. Those statements are totally logical too.. Magruder has been our 2nd best player and most consistent player all year. How's this for logic....We've finished above you in the Big 12 standings 4 out of the last 5 years. Our historical record vs you is within 5 games I believe. The 2 programs aren't "that" different. Get off your pedistal. First, learn to spell pedestal. Then, stow all that talk about how great KSU is. Nobody was comparing Missouri and KSU. You decided to make a false statement that Missouri fouls more than any other team in the country, when it's simply not true. Now you're trying to deflect all that and tell us how strong KSU will be next year. Great, don't care. And thugball? From a KSU fan? The same school that hired Bob Huggins and now Frank Martin? Thanks for the laugh. Didn't come here for a spelling lesson after 2 bottles of wine. My apologies. Mizzou DOES foul more than anyone in the nation. It's just not called. When you play a pressure defense like that, there are constantly reach ins, slaps on the wrists/hands, bumps. The style they play leads to a LOT of contact that is not called. Is it a foul, YES. Is it called, not all the time, especially at home. Comparing Huggins and Martin to Quinn cheating Snyder and Anderson is laughable in itself. By the way, people were comparing KSU and Mizzou, saying that Mizzou only lost cuz they played in Manhattan. I hope we get to meet in KC, because the game was in the exact same place when we played in piss town Columbia with 5 mins left as it was today.

Fouls committed and not called doesn't mean anything? Mizzou is thug ball. That's all. I hope we get to play again.

You generally are way off on your expecations. See the past two years. As are you and your expectations of Illinios. We lose Pullen and Kelly.. That's it. It is a lot, but there will be a LOT of experienced players on this team. Those are the only players on ksu worth a damn. Kstate will suck next year. Magruder, Spradling, Russell, Henriquez-Roberts, Samuels.. yeah, we'll suck. Keep telling yourself that. Kelly has done NOTHING this year, and Pullen didn't until lately. Mizzou will bring back more than anyone next year, the cats will be a top 5 in the new Big 10. Too much experience not to. Pullen + Kelly account for 28 of the 73 per game we score. Quit being so dilusional.

Every game Mizzou plays is a foul fest. How is KSU any different than other games Mizzou plays on the road and can't win? Because KSU commits more fouls than just about anyone, Mizzou included. Mizzou's entire defense is based on clubbing the [expletive] out of people. They foul more than any team in america.

Which is also why the five seed may not be bad. Pick up a first round win then get kstate on a neutral court. I like it. Look for Mizzou to be the 6 seed now. I don't see CU losing either of the last 2 games. They may end up as the 4 with KSU as the 5.

We won't suck. I'm expecting middle of the pack Big 12. A lot of the guys playing big minutes are freshmen and sophomores. They'll be competitive.

And Mizzou comes back and ties it up. Gonna be a good game.

Pullen 3-3 for 8 pts, 10-0 lead to start the game vs. Mizzou. Nice start for the Cats!

Offer sent. I think my offer is exactly what you indicated an interest in. Damn, I think I'd have beat that offer. Wish I'd have seen the post sooner.

No. Bautista was a fluke. Hamels is possible. Well, if you're going to go with Tiex, let me know and I won't try to trade for #2. :)

Just trying to make Adam happy and get Tim out of the 1st round. 8-[ When you put both trades together though I end up getting Tex/Haren, Pujols, King Felix for Cano, Arencibia, Harper and the 17th & 33rd overall pick. Plus I still have the 32nd pick. Understandable, but i think you undervalue Arencibia and Harper's worth... Free players are worth a ton for the long haul. Umm. I'm still cussing you for Alex Gordon. I bet! Braun was a steal for me there.

I think that's a ton to give up for one of those guys... Oh well, it wasn't me making the deal.

Do the prospect draft thru NSBB.. I like that idea the best. That'll keep people from picking up major leaguers by mistake during the prospect portion.

Not for us. We showed up to play. Wish we could put forward this type of effort every game. We've finally showed our talent on D tonight. We need 3 more wins out of the last 5 to have a shot at the tourney.

I had already proposed the draft pick trade to Navin before you posted this and he accepted it today. If it's reset due to changing the draft date we can execute the trade again, so there shouldn't be any problem. Whoops.. I'll remove all those trade proposals.
