KU Football and Basketball

Speaking of KU sports the football team is currently number 4 in the AP and USA Today polls. They move up one spot as they were five last week. What must the team do to catch the attention of the football pundits? They have a perfect record of 10-0, yet they are under the Oklahoma Sooners. Is it because Oklahoma is known for their great football teams and KU isn't? OU isn't perfect. Their one loss came to the hands of Colorado. Is it because KU supposedly plays "fluff" teams? What part of perfect does these pollsters do not understand? If KU would have lost a game we probably wouldn't even be in the top 10. But on the bright side, KU is number 3 in the BCS standings which is a good deal. So the 'Hawks need to deal with Iowa State (the final home game for this season on Saturday) and Missouri (at Arrowhead the Saturday after Thanksgiving). Then the true test will be for the league championship against, OU. Mangino is probably telling his guys just look at the next game and nothing further. This is true. They need to concentrate on winning against Iowa State this coming Saturday. Good luck 'Hawks!

The Men's Basketball team played against a very good UMKC Kangaroo team Sunday night. Jeremiah Hartsock and the rest of his teammates scored a few good three pointers. KU did end up winning over UMKC by a score of 85-62. Mario Chalmers (my favorite player) scored 23 points in the game, followed by Russell Robinson (S's favorite player) with 15 points. They are playing in the 1st annual Jayhawk Invitational tournament. The next game will be with the Washburn Icabods (I want to add Crane at the end of that) of Topeka, Kansas at AFH on Thursday. Then they will playing against Northern Arizona on Wednesday. That's the game we are going to. Watch the blog then!! :0)

Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

A very busy work week for me this coming week. Pray that I keep recovering. I still can feel tired at times, the pain from the incision, and vacuuming upstairs is somewhat a challenge. You don't realize how much you use your abdominal muscles when vacuuming (especially with a heavy industrial thing that I have). I currently cannot use that vac at all. A lot of activity going on at church a couple of meals, a couple of youth group meetings, and an auction on Saturday. Whew! I'm just tired out thinking about it all!
