It was a good game, but shit.

Oh well - Final Four. I can't complain. OSU won more games in the tournament than I thought they would.

Baseball season!

As a KU fan, I'm very glad there are two halves in a basketball game.

It's weird that the difference in the final scores was the two points KU got with 0.1 seconds left in the first half. I know enough about sports to understand that it wouldn't have been a tie without those two points, but it is frustrating.

Good luck Monday.

But proud to report that I am winning in my family bracket contest.

Of course, living in Kansas means my family members are pretty pissed at me for picking KY to win. I've probably been written out of several wills over this.

Though I always do.

I'm giving all my KU alum friends the business for picking KY.

I picked UK too. But I can't win. So I hope KU does it.

BTW, I screwed up. If UK wins, LonLP24 and Renew Deal will be tied for first, and rely on the tie breaking score.

Can't help but note the contrast.

I can't even imagine rioting in Lawrence. At least not since 1854.

Don't worry, it will be calm in Lawrence after you get beat again.
Kentucky owns Kansas.

There will be a party tomorrow night win or lose. The only thing we can be sure about is there won't be a riot. We'll leave that to the fans in Lexington.

An American Legion Hall at every crossroads in the state.
A few bad apples started this. Oh yes and binge drinking is worse now than when I drank.
I do not condone the vandalism and arson. It is hard to defend the majority when a bunch of assholes run riot. I will be in the middle of it all night tomorrow. Some of our problem is that our cheap City Govt has let the PD run a hundred short on staff. LOL, we are the most progressive city in the State. I hope it is better Monday.
Goodluck, throw the ball up and play.

It's not at all boring.

I also don't think burning couches and street riots would be called fun here.

But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Two sentences I just posted in this group.

"Actually, this group of redneck yuppie larvae have embarrassed the town."
"I do not condone the vandalism and arson."
Kicking ass Monday night floats my boat.
