“If someone were to say you had to bet today whether or not Mike Anderson would ever win a Big 12 tournament or conference championship again, my vote would be no.”
Kevin Kietzman, 810 AM
GregHall: Why KK has taken this stance I do not know. Jealousy? Bitterness? Those would be two good guesses.

Re: KC STAR Layoffs?
Two casualties of the Kansas City Star’s latest layoffs and cutbacks: Local section columnists Mike Hendricks and Steve Penn. The pair were called in last Friday and told their three columns a week would be pared to two. Worse yet, their paychecks would similarly be reduced by a third. Penn seems t...

Re: KC STAR Layoffs?
The post office will always exist becasue certain mail needs to be in paper form (certified, signatures, etc etc). People also like getting a birthday card in the mail more than on email. I don't send a lot over the mail anymore but I send enough that can't be done on a computer.

Re: Big 12 Basketball 2008
Not as big a fall to obscurity as USF - 2 ncaa titles and one of the best players of all time is apparently not enough to guarantee permenant relevance. You said it - they got their titles for one reason. Too bad Wilt couldn't even get us one. By the way, how sweet is this pic of Russell in col...

Re: The Health Care Debate
Life is often dependent on health care. That's why emergency care is available to all citizens. Besides, your argument could be applied to anything . Should grocery stores offer free food & drink to anyone who walks in? Gotta eat to live! Should clothing stores give out free shirts - hey ...

Re: Big 12 Basketball 2008
Interesting chart. 2 things jump out: (1) hardly any hoops success South of the Mason-Dixon line. Without Florida's wins this decade, they've basically contribued a giant goose egg to college hoops. Odd given that they are so dominant in football. (2) Tons of history in the UNC-Duke corridor - b...

18th & Broadway Community Garden + Housing
The only place KC needs condo buildings right now is the 3 parcels that border P&L on the South. That's it. I'd think when the economy turns around in a few years those will be the first to get done.

If you need to buy car insurance to drive, then you need to buy health insurance to visit the hospital. There is no such thing as a "right", other than life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness.

Re: Yankees to build new stadium
I went years ago, 2000ish, and the seats we were in were literally broken. And leaning heavily to one side when you sat on it. When I went to the bathroom, it smelled horrible and some guy was urinating on the ground in the stall next to me. The whole place was disgusting. I was totally disappoin...

Re: Talk of anchoring Big 12 championships
Getting football in Dallas on a full time basis should sweeten the pot for the southern schools. It's basically a home game every year for the southern team but I think the northern schools would accept the trade-off to get the basketball tourney in KC permanently. Maybe, maybe not. KU is definit...
