What improvements do we need to make?

Another thought, the upgrade I'd most like to see won't cost $ but gain revenue & viewers is to can Cox 22. There isn't a station in town that isn't falling all over this Final Four run. Ohio St. has been more accessible thanks to CBS, than WSU. We beat OSU. Its time for decent TV.

I use the Ignore because I don't like to read all the colorful language. Even though the forum guidelines have rules specifically against it, I still end up having to use the Ignore.

The ****?

Who are we going to go to other than Metro sports? There is no one from Wichita that has the equipment so we have to go out of city. Metro in KC is the best thing in the region. The only way we lose Metro is if the MVC were to put together something for us. Of course they are busy checking out UMKC so I can't imagine they are really that forward thinking.

If this topic is even on-topic anymore, I would be weary of expanding CKA too much, too quickly. I'm currently a student at Oklahoma State and in 2001 we raised the roof on GIA and expanded from 6,700 to 13,600. A HUGE expansion to say the least, but since the program was successful the Arena was generally packed, but as the program has taken a backslide the almost deserted 300 level has become somewhat of an embarrassment to the fans here at OSU. I would say keep CKA where it is and make it nicer, and expansion would only take away from one of the best bball experiences around.

Topic:
What should we do to improve our facilities? Second half of your response:



Not really on-topic. More like a dig that you have used multiple times to derail a topic. I called you out because you constantly do this. I've called you out before because you have done this. I'll keep calling you out if you keep doing this. It is simple: Stay on topic and stop trolling and I'll be civil. Continue attacking me and responding to fairly factual posts with "I'm not the one that cries like a little girl after every loss," and I'll continue calling you a troll. I'll keep doing this not because I enjoy it, but because I want new members to understand what you are.

I'm not going to go crying to moderator because my feelings are hurt (because really nothing you do makes me angry or upset), but I want people to know that you are a troll. A guy that will proudly derail topics with personal grudges, attack other members and players on our team, and dedicate himself to making a new member unwelcome quickly.

On the subject of name-calling, see the "doofus" and "cry like a little girl" comments. I don't care, but name-calling did happen.

The 3 paragraph novels about me are quite flattering. It just proves how rattled you get and how paranoid you are.

You were the one who stated the free throw defense junk in the first place. I'm just repeating it back to you. If you don't like it, then maybe you shouldn't have said it in the first place.

Do yourself a favor, CBB:

Step 1 -- Find the Ignore setting.

Step 2 -- Use it on Fever.

If you don't, you have only yourself or your masochistic tendencies to blame for having to put up with him. Personally, I did it a long time ago; he was actually the first of my current crop of 6-7 ignorees (I'd have to look up to see exactly how many, but I do know I lost one recently when Cold was finally removed again). Believe me when I tell you: it WILL enhance your ShockerNet experience.

How did you know he was talking about me if you had me on ignore? Once again, a big time FAIL on your part.

bathroom attendants.

Remove all the stairs and install escalators

franchise a Gates BBQ and put it in CKA

commission a huge mural of the final four team on a wall of Marshall's choosing.

install some sort of contraption to add seating to the student area. Im sick and tired of this glaring hole where the tunnel is when there should be a student there waving a big giant Ron Baker Head trying to get somebody to miss a free throw.

Thunder Sticks (nuff said)

oh yeah and of course give our assistants more money and do something about the god awful wifi connection inside the arena.

paint the ceiling of the Chuck

Thanks for the insight. After further thought, expansion probably isn't that necessary. While it's awesome when the bandwagon is full, we need to consistently sell out games and show a long waiting list for us to seriously consider any type of expansion ideas. And who knows how logistically possible it is to do it and keep the integrity and atmosphere levels of the current structure. Probably one of those moves that favors dollar signs if done, but may not pay the biggest dividends in the future, i.e. conference realignment.

You'd think that at least one of these two would ignore the other, but noooooo.

Glad you guys are ignoring it.

Unfortunately, it's like trying to ignore Pepe Le Pew who found his way into your house. :p

I like this plan.

I like this plan.

I kind of liked the Gates and Escalators more but yeah!

So you are one of the guys that choose to ignore me huh?

Build a national following. Not sure how we do it other being on national TV a lot. Many fans here at the FF don't have a direct tie to the school they are here to see, rather have just latched on to them. Need to find a way to get people to latch onto us.

@WuDrWu: could clear space in his PM folder.

[Ricardo del Rio]

I like this plan.

I imagine both F4 teams should be honored, which I do not mind.

I really like ASM's mural idea.
