From the Waco paper we are now the Kansas Cockroaches. I can just picture the new gear with the words "Impossible to Klll" .

You make the sweatshirt I will wear it.

here is the quote

"So Kansas, the Big 12’s impossible-to-kill cockroach, moves a step closer to its 12th straight conference title, while Baylor is forced to try to learn from its mistakes."

That's great. What frustration they must feel. While their program is greatly improved, it's fun to see what they promote about themselves....players in the NBA, Women's championships....no men's championships of any note to speak of...but hey, they're trying.

As for the T-shirt, I imagine a Jayhawk riding a giant cockroach away from a mushroom cloud with the Waco skyline in the background, and the headline, "Can't Be Killed". I'd buy one in a minute.

Near the bottom of the article"

There is a certain part of all this madness that the Kansas players embrace.

OK, call us underdogs -- more heart and toughness and survival instinct than talent -- who just want to trash the game, hang around and have a shot with five minutes left.

OK, so we're college basketball's cockroaches. You can stomp on us, but you can't kill us.

"I find that annoying," says junior forward Thomas Robinson, the Jayhawks' leading scorer and rebounder. "I feel like people are saying we got lucky to be here."

The answer to that is this -- "We have to defend. We have to be tough. Rebound the ball. Get good shots. Take care of the ball. Limit their transition. Just do what we've been doing..."*. That, my friends, is my kind of luck!

Must have been slow-witted this morning. While cockroaches are widely known to be the only things that survive nuclear fallout, there's some evidence to support that Keith Richards (guitarist from the Rolling Stones) is also immune to nuclear fallout and pretty much any chemical known to man. So I'm thinking we either put Richards on the cockroach with the Jayhawk, OR have him model the shirt while sitting in with the pep band.

I'll make some calls....
