We're the "insecure" ones:

Is there any place else on the internet with such a highly concentrated population of insecure, incompetent, self-pleasuring goonbags?

Probably a few porn sites, but I guess I was focusing on the self-pleasuring comment.

Wow! I didn't realize HCGM was aiming those comments toward KU. I thought he was referring to our dunk contest that we usually have. Wasn't it last year or the year before where DK or someone else dunked over a motorcycle?

...but if that's what they want to believe! Rock Shock Chickenhawk!

Marshall is popular in Lawrence still.

I don't think the comments were really directly at KU because KU doesn't do a dunk contest. More of just a reference to the whole circus attitude around the whole thing.

The motorcycle didn't go over all the well anyway because it was auctioned off and apparently that took forever.

Yeah, the comments were not directed at KU what so ever.

It's KU though. They all have the toddler mentality that the world revolves around them.

Also just a quick question, why would you guys even be reading a KU message board? It's bound to have inflammatory things on it, why subject yourself to that?

Well the motorcycle comment probably was about Self but I think the point had nothing to do with criticizing KU.

I don't keep up with KU basketball, did Self drive a motorcycle into Allen Fieldhouse or something?

I'm not sure that is fair. I read kusports.com all the time and WSU rarely comes up but when it does it is normally positive. There are exceptions of course but generally KU fans like to see WSU do well.

Hey KU fans, do you want to know if something is directed at you, but never can tell? Do you regularly find yourself saying things in person or online only to be humiliated when someone shows that you misunderstood the original statement? Well for the low, low rate of just 19.95 you can have The Mad Hatter's Understanding the Obvious (patent pending) 2-step system:

Step 1: Ask yourself if the quote made any specific reference to you. Words and phrases to look for include: KU, Jayhawks, Bill Self, and University of Kansas.*

Step 2: Ask yourself if the activity described is done anywhere other than KU. Note: this may involve admitting that basketball exists outside of Lawrence, KS.

Hope this helps!


*Caution: While it is understandable to assume statements addressed to generic insults such as "moron," "jerk," etc. are attacks on KU, on rare occasion those words have been used to address non-KU persons as well.

I didn't make it this year but apparently they built some custom Jayhawk themed motorcycle that they auctioned off during late night. Self rode it into the field house all dressed up ridiculous.

He deserves to get made fun of. Sorry, but that's ridiculous.

Let's not hide that image in a link.



I can't imagine why KU fans would assume that this is something that might be mocked.

Yeah but you enjoy KU athletics or just enjoy reading about it. I think @ShockerFever: and the others who will berate the thread, have no interest in KU at all, so they're simply reading it to read the inflammatory comments. That's my read on it.
