theJEDMAN NATION-A New Wave Manifesto
Documenting the JED Experience
Tuesday, May 24, 2005
I don't want the blog to turn into a sports thing, but I have to comment on the J.R. situation. J.R. should be kicked off the Jayhawk's round ball team. He attended a club that was on the list of places not to go to by the athletic department. He should not be allowed to play basketball anymore at the Universtiy of Kansas, but the University should honor his scholarship. J.R. will probably leave the University in that situation. He'll play ball in Kuiwait before he stays at KU with no basketball. Plus, he hasn't lived up to his hype. He can't shoot, drive or play defense. Let him leave to the NBA. Let's see if he makes it. My guess is that he'll be playing in Kuiwait next fall.
I don't know what happened, but it is my guess that someone messed with him and he stuck around too long and then some stuff got out of hand to the point when J.R. got knifed in the parking lot of the Moon Bar. My guess is that J.R. should have left a long time before the incident. Only bad things can happen when you are out past midnight. J.R. has should have realized that he is high profile. He's on TV. Everyone on TV is high profile. He doesn't have the same free life like Bon Chappell and me.
It is stupid to get into a fight. I tell my clients all the time that you can't fight. Fighting is wrong. When you fight, you allow someone else to control your behavior. It is so much better to walk away. I feel that you upset the opponent more if you walk away. I hate that revenge mentality that people have. It is dumb. Just leave. J.R. should have left the bar.
Speaking of the Moon Bar. It used to be the Village Inn. Back in my day in Lawrence, theSplinter, Scorteez and I used to frecuent that place late at night for a 2000 calorie death meal of eggs, gravy, bacon, chicken fried steak and pancakes. Those were the days. theJEDMAN
