(I'm not yet into this blogging thing. It's been a while since I've posted anything so why would anyone bother to read it? I write every day, usually on a political blog I follow and read. I should copy them here but the topics and comments seem to require more set-up and context and... well, I'm lazy these days.
This is a response to a column by Jason Whitlock in the 10-25-09 Kansas City Star.
It needs a set-up and there's more I want to write about it... just not now.
This blog has nothing to do about anything specific yet. There's just a lot of stuff that gets me to thinking about stuff and I have no other way to preserve those thoughts than write about it. I suspect there are nuggets I wish I could retrieve from old floppies, random web sites, ill-labeled files somewhere in a generic sector of my computers... reaching back to who-knows-where?
So I've decided to try to contribute to this blog a verbal snapshot of the day. I figure it won't always be relevant to anything preceding or following the stuff. It's gonna have a lot of first drafts. But then, no one reads this blog yet anyway so this is likely to become an archive of skeletons in the attic which will come up once this silly little project becomes (or doesn't) followed by anyone.)
Reesing must be in love. Or going to class too much. Or got to believing the Heisman hype. I've heard nothing bout how Todd is such a noble person.
The thing I've loved about the Mangino era has been how he takes second-tier recruits and brings out or more of their potential. The Heisman promotion seemed so out-of-sync with the way the program has grown. KU won the Orange Bowl with a team of kids who were playing together and so became greater than the sum of the parts.
I think I like collegiate sports better than the pros because so much is riding on the skills and egos of 18-22-year-old kids. Collegiate sports is the military by other means.
