And the lesson as always is…

by clay on June 18, 2007

…I’m an idiot. I had the pieces queued up for Friday and Monday. My only problem was I scheduled them for JULY 15 and 18 instead of JUNE. Minor issue. So, I changed the dates on them. Take a Stand – Emotion or Logic will post tonight, and Christ and Culture – Politics of the [...]

Quick Thoughts

by clay on February 5, 2007

Super Bowl – Congratulations to Peyton Manning, Tony Dungy and the Colts on last night's Super Bowl victory. I've been a fan of Tony Dungy's since he was the head coach in Tampa Bay, mainly because of his faith and his understated way of displaying it. Manning and Dungy both seem to be great guys [...]

It’s bowl season again!

by clay on December 7, 2006

And once again, the debates have begun over who deserves to play for the title, and who doesn't. I'm going to present a (hopefully) well thought out idea for why college football should move to a playoff format over the current BS…er, BCS format. It's going to be long. It involves history. It's also fun. [...]

And then it came crashing down

by clay on November 19, 2006

Well, if last week was the high point of the football season, this week is the low point. My beloved Wildcats lost to the hated Kansas Jayhawks 39-20. (Heh, Firefox 2.0 spell checker told me Jayhawks is misspelled.) One week after looking like a future Heisman candidate in defeating #4 Texas, freshman quarterback Josh Freeman [...]

ESPN needs to get a grip

by clay on November 15, 2006

Why is it that ESPN feels the need to pound stories into the ground these days? First, Barry Bonds is hammered over and over for no reason. Nothing new is coming out about the story, yet he gets brought up all summer long. Second, Terrell Owens is on all the time for every little thing. [...]

EMAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by clay on November 12, 2006

My beloved Kansas State Wildcats just beat the #4 team in the nation, the ugly burnt orange Texas Longhorns. Jimmy, Alex, sorry about dashing your hopes to get back to the national title game, but they couldn't hang with the Cats. Good stuff out of Manhattan tonight. Can't imagine that KU is looking forward to [...]

Something to think about

by clay on October 19, 2006

Scroll down for updates – MOST LIKELY A HOAX Just over one month ago, I had a post which referred to what people were calling an “American Hiroshima.” The links in the post talked about how there were rumors that terrorists were planning a dirty bomb attack during Ramadan. Well, Ramadon started 22 September and [...]

Kansas basketball

by clay on October 17, 2006

No, not just the University of Kansas. In fact, there have been more stories this last week about the start of basketball practices at other schools in Kansas than about KU. That's saying something. Today, ESPN's Andy Katz wrote about Mark Turgeon and the Wichita State basketball team. Read the article here. Last Friday, he [...]

Two sport schools

by clay on October 16, 2006

I'm trying to think of any colleges who are good in both football and men's basketball, but I really can't think of many. Here's my rundown Basketball schools Duke Kansas North Carolina Kentucky Cincinnati UMass UConn Gonzaga UCLA Football schools USC Florida State Miami FL (which is actually more of a thug school, as evidenced [...]
