    You actually don't think Kansas is a top level basketball program, or am I missing the joke?

    Kansas one of those programs that despite the team's history, championships, legendary coaches and continuous presence in the Final Four, doesn't seem to register on the needle with fans outside Kansas like a UCLA or Duke or UNC or Kentucky.

    3 Final Fours this decade - if they get another and possibly another title this year, I'd say that has changed. (And I'm indifferent about Kansas.)

    And they always have one, sometimes two, smirking white punks I'd love to slap upside the head. They're Eddie Haskell's Team.

    People know Kansas is good. They just don't seem to have strong feelings about the Jayhawks.

    In terms of level of play, they are.

    In terms of who gives a shit, nope. Behind UNC, Duke, UCLA, and the Big East now, forever, and always in terms of glamour and ratings.

    Cool, thanks! Whitlock... people who like basketball like ballers. Tats and black people don't bother anybody who likes basketball except maybe great-grandpa, who a) wouldn't like tats on white kids either and b) will be asleep before the starting line-ups are introduced on the west coast.

    For those that don't like black people on their TV sets, they must not watch any sport except hockey anyway. I would guess they just watch FOX news.

    Duke year in and year out always shows a lot of courage under pressure. I believe that is why so many folks like to watch them play.

    I don't mind tats or black people. I hate people who post entire articles on message boards, though.

    What, that Dean Smith and Adolph Rupp learned the game from the Phog?
