  1. Off to tailgate before the game. I hope we play our starters and kick Detroits butt. Have a good XMas eve NSBB!
  2. KSU takin it to UNM! Big game tonight! These guys are finally starting to play under Huggy!
  3. I heard your defense looked excellent last night. Any word on whether Giddens will play? I heard he hurt his ankle against WSU. I haven't heard either if Giddens is a go or not. Our defense was awesome last night. Cartier and Hoskins/Walker were our big men last night. Colon didn't see the floor, and Bennett was not with the team due to a death in the family so we played small and fast. Bill Walker freaking dominated down low in the second half. The guy is a HUGE difference maker!
  4. Bill Walker is a stud. I want to see what kind of difference he makes vs UNM tonight. They killed us the first go round in the Pit, but something tells me tonight will be different.
  5. KSU/USC in 10 Mins. Winner to take on Wichita State or NM. GO CATS! I'd love to play WSU. It sucks not having them on the schedule this year, as we usually play them every year.
  6. I talked to him today.. haha.. well every day cuz we work together. He's mulling it over. I like the deal personally (either with Crawford or Dunn), but he hasn't really mapped out his keepers yet. He said he'll let you know soon.
  7. lol.. I watched the game and for only practicing with the team for a day, I was impressed with Walker. I hope the Bramlage streak ends.. I think we're poised for a top 4 finish in the Big 12 this year... Call me crazy, but I think we'll do it.
  8. I think it would be a good win and a bit of validation for their hot start for Mizzou, but embarrassing for U of I? It's a rivalry game, and Mizzou has only one loss and already dusted a decent-at-least Arkansas team. And like I said earlier in this thread, Snyder always was a decent recruiter, Mizzou's roster consists of several recruits who were well regarded nationally. Is it to the level of Illinois, who has been at the top of the B10 for a while? No, but it's a rivalry game on a neutral floor, and as such I don't think it's a disgrace to lose the game. with the way UI fans have run their mouths RE: KU the last 4 years, I don't know who to root for. On the one hand, it's Mizzou, and I hate rooting for Mizzou. But it would be nice for the Big XII to get a nice noncon scalp, and it would be hilarious to see the Illini freak out over the loss. Plus, I'd like Mizzou to feel nice and confident coming into the KU games. There. I talked myself into it. [bathing in lye]Go Mizzou.[/bathing in lye] Do you think we'll beat you this year? I'd love to hear an honest opinion. I think we have a great shot, especially adding a 4th scoring option in Walker.
  9. Damn, I'm spending my Xmas away from my family in KS, at the Bears game in Detroit, and none of you can even watch it? :)
  10. Christ Jesus, I just got a headache reading that thread. What does that idiot not understand ABuck? You handled it a lot better than I would have, which is why I don't contribute. I just read. :wall:
  11. I'll be there! What a XMAS eve!! :)
  12. I know we didn't play anyone worth a crap today, but just watching Bill Walker on the court makes me happy. He could be the difference maker and had a nice game today.. 15 pts/4 boards in 22 Mins. I can't wait to see him paired with Beasley next year! He definitely adds another scorer, which should help a LOT come Big 12 time.
  13. I traded Prior and Morales to Lynx for Konerko.

    Keepers

    Hey Guys.. currently I have this to keep, and am WAY under in Points. I'd like to get a big bat that someone doesn't plan on keeping. I can take on a couple hundred more points, and will package someone like Lidge with a minor leaguer to get another pitcher or a bat. 1b Konerko 534 ss H. Ramirez Exempt 3b A. Ramirez 561.2 of Ordonez 473.2 of Markakis Exempt of Kubel Exempt u Chavez 396 p Young Exempt p Colon 72.5 p Wang Exempt 2285.2 I'm STILL willing to make any offer for the following players, or even one of my above mentioned keepers. I have a couple players that could be real sleepers next year in Chavez and Colon that could get someone potential without a lot of points.... Kubel- Exempt, Dan Johnson- Exempt Brian Bannister- Exempt Tabata, Casto, Adenhardt, Nippert, Gonzalez, Romero - Minors Ibanez- 569.2 Crede- 435.5 Varitek- 258.2 Padilla- 359.6
  15. Well.. the Cats get Bill Walker starting Sunday. We'll see how he does.
  16. I'll also be taking offers. I have some guys who may be up for big years next year after an off year this year.. (Chavez, Prior, Colon) as well as Ibanez and Crede if anyone is interested. Also 3 relievers who I most likely won't keep any...
  17. Christ.. now we have to play Rutgers.. Come on Big 12.. UGH!
  18. KSU Sucks.. We won some games with this group last year, and were in almost every single game... Who the hell knows what Huggins has done to this team. I'm not giving up on him yet, only 7 games into the season, but christ I'm disappointed.
  19. Bob Huggins.. I'm definitely not sold on him.. We've now gotten our ass kicked 2 road games in a row. UGH! He's playing walk ons over players that were a respectable group last year. I'm not happy.
  20. Good God I hope this is wrong. If Hendry signs Soriano for 8 years, I'll cry. I'd rather see him dump 20 million a year on Soriano for 4 years than 8 years at 17 million a year.
  21. Poor KU.. losing at home to Oral Roberts. I couldn't be happier.
  22. I picked a GREAT weekend to come back to Manhattan! Hell of a time last night!!!
  23. [hyperbolic smack talk] You haven't given Huggins enough time yet, I'm sure he can get into as much trouble as Dollar Bill if you give him a season or two. :P [/hyperbolic smack talk] Hahaha! That made me laugh. I don't need to relax, I just love to jaw a bit with squawk fans.
  24. Post all you want about Huggins, but Kstate wasn't the school cited for lack of institutional control....
  25. Woo!! Two ROY for my team.. Should be a promising next year!
