Wine.

You have to understand that this is a micro micro distillery. They only have one distributor outside of Michigan and only because they don’t produce enough to sell much past that. Their second year of whiskey was sold out before it was released. This year’s is only available IN Traverse City. Benny’s is the only place to find their vodka online and they won’t ship to KS.

I can't

This team is better than that, we think. And we think Frank’s and his staff are better coaches. So how do they keep screwing up games?

I don’t care that this happens every year. If anything, that’s an indictment of the coaching staff. This is the fourth time in five games the Cats have embarrassed themselves (crushed at KU, pissed away big leads twice against Baylor, getting smoked at OU, and now completely pissing away a HUGE team coached by an android). I’m not sure even a win here will restore my confidence in this team.

from 6:30-8:00. I was stoked that the tip off wasn’t until 8:00 so I could catch the majority of the game…and then drama erupted and I had to play the role of mediator, and I missed the entire game. I also could have scored row 2 seats behind the home bench for tonight for free…Though if that’s what had to happen for us to get off the schnide, I’ll take it. Glad we won, Go State!

A win is a win, but man that was harder than it needed to be.

Thank god for Rod emerging as a true star.

Will, please bottle what you did in the second half and do that for the rest of the season because the last couple games and first half of this one were not pretty.

Frank, I don’t even know what to say. Why does he insist on making games difficult to win? He’s too good a coach to not be doing this intentionally. I trust Frank. He’s led us to great places. But man is he testing our faith with this crap.

Really liked the game Big Gip played. Jamar was very good except for going back to his stupid foul mode that greatly limited his effectiveness. Tay had another brutal game on both ends but came up with a key bucket and obviously that steal at the end. Lastly, I’ll say this team will not reach its potential with JO in a funk. When he’s been good we’re at our best. But I don’t blame Frank for benching him the past few games. It’s not the execution. It’s the effort. He hasn’t boxed out well, his defense has been lazy, and I swear I was going to jump through the tv and throw him to the bench tonight if I saw him jog back on D one more time while a UT guy took it coast to coast against an empty lane. He must get back on track otherwise we’re going to struggle some more.
