Opening Weekend
Posted by Triston27 on March 5th, 2010 under Baseball
Have any big plans for the weekend? No? I didn't think you did. Fortunately, I have a suggestion for you. See, today is the home opener for your beloved Kansas Jayhawks baseball team. And this isn't just any KU baseball team, this is the #25 ranked team in the entire nation.
The weather is supposed to be halfway decent this weekend. Temperature-wise anyway as it's supposed to rain all day Saturday. So this leaves Friday's double-header

The Dude cares about Haiti.

That's right, folks. Quincy Jones and Lionel Ritchie came calling for help and what's The Dude do? The Dude abides. Did you guys watch the Opening Ceremonies for the 2010 Olympic winter games in Vancouver? Me neither, but I did happen to stumble upon NBC just as they were preparing to show the "We Are the World" remake. I was anxious to see how they'd fuck it up.

The hell is going on here?

I'm not really one to harp about brackets in February, but looking at the recent installment of yahoo's "Drive for 65" something stood out that I couldn't believe. Cornell was a 12 seed. Now I know I'm probably too close to the situation, having seen them nearly beat KU in AFH, but that seems ridiculous. I mean, by the time the tournament comes around, they'll likely be ranked in the Top-20, barring an upset.

This may have been the toughest week yet in deciding who would have the prestigious honor of being recognized as the OBK Big Man On Campus. But after much discussion, we chose nominees. Then we put it to a vote and counted and recounted the ballots. Finally, we here at OBK came up with our winner for the week that was February 1, 2010. Ladies and gentleman, I present to you the first ever 2-time

I think it's pretty obvious who the Big Man On Campus was during the week of January 25th. You see, someone awoke the sleeping giant. Hugemistake, Big 12 foes. Huge mistake. Teams were having a tough enough time with the Jayhawks when it was just Mc Morris down in the paint, but not our good friend Cole Aldrich has joined in the party. And it couldn't have come at a better time, what with 2 hated

Sorry for the delay of the Big Man On Campus award. Judging by my inbox being inundated with tens of zeros of emails, I can tell the masses are disappointed by this delay. You see, I planned to write this piece on Sunday but got distracted with beer and football. Then, on Monday, I couldn't steal the thunder away from the Border War preview presented by Neon. The video pretty much said it all

Big 12 Hoops Dominance

Good job by the Big 12 this year in the Big-12/Pac-10 Hardwood Series. Could have possibly been 10-2 if not for the injury to A&M's Derrick Roland with the Aggies down only 1 at the time.
