Yeah, Lew's done a lot of great things at KU
but I’m not going to be upset about him leaving. The negative attention’s getting old.
Glad I came, just wish I hadn't stayed so long.
People ask me what I do in winter when there’s no baseball...Rock Chalk Talk
yeah I agree...
there’s blood in the water so the media is going to look hard for something, but here’s the reality…
I’m sure you catch the reference.
Lew has been a good thing for the most part. Is he perfect…no, who is…but if spending a hundred grand on his travel means that we have a successful program because he can get other things done. I’m ok with it.

Yeah -
I’m not really sweating it. The Athletic Program is making loads of money for the school and if his budget includes private plane trips it seems acceptable to me. They got the KU jets in the 90’s. Are you telling me that Fredricks never flew on the jets? Hell, I flew on one of the jets…
There is no red like Chiefs red.
And it's not like the University is paying for this.
It comes out of the athletic budget… the very budget that Perkins has done a great job of expanding in his time here.
That article is nothing more than, “let’s hate on the rich guy that pisses off KState and Mizzou fans.”

Great news about Stucky, Meier, etc.
Can’t wait to hear them say their school name during the MNF intros – continue to raise the profile.

made a mistake...
Stuckey didn’t play, injury. Nothing major but he sat Saturday night. It’s still looking very likely that he’ll start. Think San Diego is at KC for the Monday night opener I thought I heard.

only if you're not planning on working at all Tuesday...
I suspect about 79,000 Kansas Citians will be calling in sick…
There is no red like Chiefs red.
I'm taking Tuesday off
Considered doing the Royals/Chiefs Monday doubleheader, but ultimately thought better of it.
Royals then Cheifs...
Thats a lot of hours of mediocrity…

mediocrity?
Glad I came, just wish I hadn't stayed so long.

I'm not
And I root for the Royals and the Chiefs (behind the Packers).
But I can have my fun

Don't forget
James Holt is close to cracking the rotation at LB…..imagine Holt AND Stuckey lining up against the Griefs.
build a damn football program, beat some ass, and get on tv more.
they would present a significant contrast...
compared to the former Jayhawk duo on the Bengals.

I hate playing the "that reporter is biased!" card...
But doesn’t it seem like Kerkhoff is much, much harder on the Jayhawks than DeArmond is for Mizzou?

I don't mind it when a reporter is hard on a team...
but perhaps you are alluding to the fact that DeArmond is a pretty big Mizzou homer, to which I’d agree.

DeArmond is a HUGE homer
there’s no question about that. His drunken webcam rant he recorded after KU won the Nat Champ in 08 was priceless.
Mizzou fans are a queer breed…
There is no red like Chiefs red.
He put 6 Tigers on his preseason all Big 12 team.
Six. Half the offense.

I hope that was an All Big 12 North team?

Kerkhoff isn't the beat reporter for KU
J Brady is. Kerkhoff is sorta like the Jeffrey Flanagan of college sports.
There is no red like Chiefs red.
