A KICK-ASS graphic sent by a denizen of our TKC BLOG COMMUNITY offers an important perspective on the crisis of conscience confronting Kansas City basketball fans.
It would be too easy to throw around "trigger" words and cast aspersions on college fans desperately hoping to relive their glory days . . . Instead, let's just offer this bit of insight that hopes to encourage sports fans to look at the big picture . . .
KANSAS CITY SHOULDN'T CHEER FOR KU BASKETBALL BECAUSE THAT WOULD DISCOURAGE ANY REAL CHANGE IN THE MIDST OF A TROUBLED SEASON FILLED WITH NASTY RUN-INS WITH THE LAW!!!
The hoop dreams coming to our hometown aren't as important as the very real possibility that sports glory overshadows some a troubled program that is far too permissive with star players.
Just a bit more link evidence . . .
