Hey Ryan Greene, say hi to your buddy Johnny Beck for me, and don't ever write another article.
To the sports columnist Ryan Greene: I will stop kicking Johnny Beck when Johnny Beck stops kicking like crap.

If you have got a problem with Kansas City sports, you probably shouldn't have came to KU If you have a problem with it, take yourself back to Minnesota. Trust me, we won't miss you. Oh, nice accent.

Last time I checked, the Chiefs were 6-0 and in first place. Do me a favor, and before you open your mouth, know what you are talking about.

I hate everyone that hates the Royals or Chiefs. If you are one of those people,you need to get out of Kansas City.

To the guy who hates the Royals and Chiefs; Good one. I also hate the Royals and the Chiefs.

Christian Moody's girlfriend does not sound like a very nice person, so I think that he should just date me.

It sucks to be a Cubs fan right now. The curse is alive and well.
I am not shaving my legs until the Cubs win the World Series. Yes, I am a girl.
The Minnesota Vikings suck They don't even have six wins.

Greene picks Kansas, USC
Kansas vs. Baylor
The Jayhawks are more upset than anyone could ever imagine after last weekend's heartbreak in Colorado. Unfortunately, the Bears will have to play victim to a blowout for the second straight week.
Greene's Pick — Kansas
Greene's Pick — Michigan
I'm from Illinois, yet hate the Illini with a passion. I'm not ready to pick them just yet for anything.
USC vs. Notre Dame
Notre Dame's victory against Pittsburgh last weekend was a fluke, and there is no way it'll rack up yardage on the ground against one of the nation's top defenses. USC will crush the Fighting Irish vet again.
Missouri may have upset Nebraska, but Oklahoma is in a completely different league compared to the rest of the Big 12 Conference. Missouri is in for quite a spanking.
Greene's Pick-USC
Missouri vs. Oklahoma
Greene's Pick — Oklahoma

Michigan State vs. Minnesota
As big as a Michigan fan as I am, I felt bad for the Gophers after the Wolverines took it to them in the fourth quarter last week. I hope they rebound, because Michigan State is evil, plain and simple.
Iowa vs. Ohio State
Greene's Pick — Minnesota
Yes, Ohio State finally lost. Now, the Buckeyes can lose another game they're supposed to win. This time it'll be at home.
It's so fun to watch the Wildcats limp around like baby kittens. Colorado's offense is the real deal, and will torture the Big 12's worst pass defense. Go Buffs.
Colorado vs. Kansas State
Greene's Pick Iowa
Purdue vs. Wisconsin
Greene's Pick — Colorado
This game is such a toss-up, I actually flipped a coin.
Greene's Pick Wisconsin
I'll pick a pissed-off Nebraska team at home any day. It's hard to say A&M will score 73 points again this week last week against Baylor. A&M just can't do it on the road this year.
Texas A&M vs. Nebraska
Greene's Pick — Nebraska
Florida State vs. Virginia
Greene's Pick — Florida State
This is another tough game to pick. I'm hoping the Seminoles can play with some heart and help me out, because they were first of my picks to lose last week.
Washington vs. Oregon State
After losing badly to Nevada last weekend, Washington shouldn't even be allowed to finish its Pac-10 schedule. The Huskies are in for another whoopin'.
Greene's Pick — Oregon State
Stephen F. Austin vs. Sam Houston State
Just knowing that former Kansas football quarterback and basketball ball point guard Mario Kinsey played there a year ago, I have to go with Sam Houston State. All records go out the window
Greene's Pick — Sam Houston State

Yankees advance to Series after 11th-inning homer
NEW YORK — Aaron Boone set off bedlam in the Bronx on Thursday night with a leadoff home run in the 11th inning to give the New York Yankees a 6-5 victory over the Boston Red Sox for a trip to the World Series and their 39th American League pennant.
The Associated Presse
New York will start the World
The Yankees had been five outs from losing, when Jorge Posada blooped a tying two-run double off a tiring Pedro Martinez in the eighth inning.
Series at home tomorrow against the Florida Marlins, who beat the Chicago Cubs in a Game 7 on Wednesday night.
But the Yankees bounced back, rekindling all those painful memories that have haunted so many Red Sox fans—thoughts of Bucky Dent, Bill Buckner and decades of New York domination.
New York trailed 4-0 in the fourth inning and 5-2 in the eighth as Roger Clemens made an early exit what looked to be the final game of his storied career.
For the Yankees, who haven't
These old foes played 26 times this season a baseball first and it went extra innings. Yet, the final words of the ultimate chapter revealed it was the same old story, one that the Red Sox perennially curse: pintstripes in the World Series, despair back in Boston.
Only the names change in the annual fight between New York and New England, never the result.

Cross country previews Championship course
The Kansas cross country teams are getting the chance tomorrow to compete on the course where the Nov. 24 NCAA Championships will be held.
Tomorrow's NCAA Pre Nationals Invitational, hosted by Northern Iowa, will feature 82 schools from across the country. Kansas will race against 34 teams in the gold race.
"We are looking for the best competition that we can possibly find,"coach Stanley Redwine said."This meet will be a good indicator of where we stand."
This will be the Jayhawks' last race before the Oct. 31 Big 12 Championships in Austin Texas.
Swim team leaves home, heads for Relays in Iowa
The Kansas swimming and diving team will have its first competition away from Robinson Natatorium today in the Big 12 Conference Relays in Ames, Iowa. The first session begins at 9:30 a.m. and the second at 1:30 p.m. The team will also compete in a dual meet, without diving, against Iowa and Northern Iowa tomorrow at 2 p.m. in Iowa City.

—Sean O'Grady
The team split into two sides for an intrasquad meet at Robinson last Friday. The Crimson team defeated the Blue team 102-93.
"Our team is looking forward to racing other people with different caps," Kansas coach Clark Campbell said. "This is a unique experience which allows our team to compete on successive days which is important in developing a championship队."
