shoe-wearing birds fly

OK, so I said I would leave sports out of the blog after Houston Nutt resigned.


Well, now you can't hold me to that when a school we are connected to is playing for the national championship in basketball tonight. That's right the Kansas Jayhawks could win it all tonight by beating the Memphis Tigers. GO KU!


How are we connected to KU, you ask? OK, well Mrs. kcrazorback has a Master's degree in integrated marketing communications from the University of Kansas making her a real Jayhawk--even if her classes were in Overland Park and she's never even been to the main campus in Lawrence except for a football game. Worse, she's not even a fan.


Secondly, kcrazorback himself has a University of Kansas mini-MBA--which is not really a degree but it is branded Jayhawk. Not to mention the fact that we've lived almost our whole adult lives where Kansas is the closest major university.


So, it's a little bit of a stretch, but we're Jayhawks. Rock! Chalk! Jayhawk! KU!

Two questions:

1. What does rock, chalk, jayhawk mean?

2. What in the heck is a "mini-MBA"?

Please impart your wisdom on these matters. Love, Sis

1. Refers to the football field a century ago, carved out of the limestone and they used it to line the field. An administrator came up with this chant.

2. Is like a little-bitty version of an MBA. Some programs call it an Executive MBA.
