Pay Heed All Who Enter...
I collapsed onto the couch and started flipping through my DVR.  SWEET, I remembered to record "College Basketball Preview" which, I happy report, is a full 60 minutes of a Kansas season preview.  This is practically heaven.  Lots of recaps of wins, Kirk Heinrick getting an honor before the Mizzou game, senior night later in the season, overcoming a first half deficit to beat
