Rock, chalk, Jayhawk?

So, after the Jayhawks lost to Syracuse a couple years ago, I decided to walk away from my longtime Jayhawk support. Any school that could miss 16 free throws in a row in the freakin' championship game doesn't deserve my support. I also decided that I no longer could support Roy Williams, because his teams have ALWAYS had trouble making free throws, and more than once that weakness has cost them the national title. If he can't recognize and correct a problem that small, he doesn't deserve any support at all. The bastard.

Now, I see Bill Self (the hiring of whom was the last straw for me with Kansas, btw) has them ranked number one already. Wayne Simien is back, as is Keith Langford. They've gotten some good recruits, and seem to have some promise.

So, since I never officially replaced KU as my team, and Carolina is out because of Roy Williams, I'm now stating that pending any major letdowns I am allowing KU to become my provisional favorite team, on a one-year probationary period. May Roy Williams always be in the second tier at Carolina.

On a more serious note, my friend Peter was feature on the news tonight! His counseling practice is offering free counseling to Democrats and campaign staffers to help get over the election letdown. Also shown were friends from the campaign, Mike Mahoney and Erin Oldfield. You go!
