Wildcats in the Pros

Jeffrey Martin has an excellent piece on Michael Beasley featured in the KC Star/Wichita Eagle about the rookie forward's transition to the NBA. Here's a quote that will either make you proud or frustrated:
"There have been times when he’s said to me, ‘If I knew what I know now, I definitely would have come back (to K-State),’ " Shingler said. "At one point, he said he would have stayed all four years."

Football

Lamark Brown is making the move back to wide receiver.

Baseball

As TB already posted, KSU swept the Huskers in Nebraska for the first time since 1974.

Fourum

Enjoy your daily dose of the Fourum. Here's my top three:
To those guys I meowed at yesterday: I'm sorry if I frightened you.

If it sounds like a human, smells like a human, looks like a human, it might be a jackalope.

His name is Brogan and he got teabagged multiple times last night.

RE: The Beasley article

I hope he has someone that’s keeping an eye on his finances. I realize he’s making a lot of money, but from reading that, it sounds like he’s buying a lot “stuff” that really isn’t going to retain value. I read an article last week in Sports Illustrated about athletes who end up broke despite multi-million dollar salaries. Don’t mean to be a downer, just hope Mike has good people around him.

The kid needs an agent...

I’d be more than happy to step in and take a cut of that.

The downside is living in Miami.

Yes, I said it. I don’t like Miami.

This doesn't really apply to K-State, but

what does everyone think of Texas claiming a share of the Big 12 football championship with an asterisk?

I thought it was funny enough to change my comment signature…..

I considered putting that in there, but I thought that I would spare them the embarrassment.

Can we put an asterisk

stating that Missouri is also the 2007 Orange Bowl Champions then too?

Post a picture of it in a FanShot

And I’ll promote it to the front page for further discussion. Loved the signature, by the way.

Another NBA update

Cartier started for the Bobcats yesterday. As to my knowledge, this was he first NBA career start. I hope he starts this Friday when I go to watch him in Oklahoma City.
