Bulldogs, Jayhawks and comments

Good Labor Day morning. Hope everyone is having a good holiday. I cant help but remember the days when i lived on the South Carolina coast. We residents always looked forward to Labor Day because that was the weekend all the tourists went away.
We went from a city of 50,000 to a town of 15,000 that weekend. Memorial day was just the opposite.

Anyways, a few comments on the morning.
Bulldogs looked good Friday night. Noticed there is not anything on the local paper's website about it.
But they did look good. They have a good quarterback who should do great things this year. Winfield also won. Should make for a good game this coming Friday, but it is in Winfield.

Not so the Jayhawks. They looked pretty bad in losing to -- oh my goodness -- North Dakota State. Toward the end of the game, needing a last minute scoring drive, they were out of timeouts.
This does not bode well for KU fans. But, good teams make their best improvements between weeks one and two. They better with Georgia Tech coming up, but this week should make a huge difference. A close loss against Ga Tech - a highly ranked team - would be a good sign. A bad blowout ... could make for an ugly season.

I also wanted to comment about comments. I did delete some over the weekend while the blog was being spammed.
It is not a matter of censorship. Or freedom of speech.
If you want to start your own blog and anonymously spew out hate, violence, obscenity and slander, no one is going to stop you.
Im just tired of some of the anonymous bs though. The only reason I dont require names is that you could put any name on a post and there's no way to check.
But I think I might start being a bit more heavy handed with deleting posts.

The purpose of comments is to allow for community discussion and hopefully the exchange of ideas. It's purpose is not to allow mean people an anonymous venue to beat up on people.
