Wichita $tate

Re: Wichita $tate

Hey gang, Shocker fan here who will always have love in my heart for the Panthers due to their victory over Kansas.

Mark me as one Shocker fan who mis ashamed my university whored itself out to the evil Koch bastards. I hope you get the rest of the Valley to abuse us over it.


we deserve it.

UNI has stooped to a new low. Pretending to post as a Shocker? Thats just poor form. And I don't see the rebuttal posted on here... You would think if a body was interested in posting the whole story for what it is, that would at least be linked, if not quoted.

BTW, I picked my butt this morning. Looks like one more UNI fan has been born into the world.

I wasn't aware of Adam and Jake being related to them? Thought the name was just coincidence?

Also, you can't think at their level they are entirely responsible for everything that goes on in their company. I mean it's not like they're at the ethanol plant in Shell Rock once a week making sure every thing is on the up and up. They have a HUGE empire and there are bound to be unsavory people peppered in there. Nobody goes out of their way to write about all of their charitable actions or anything good they do in the world. Just the big headline corruption stories.

SO does that mean that Shox fans are lower on the social hierarchy than pieces of human feces? Not that I'm surprised...

Didn't realize it was their duty to post every little detail. Why didn't you post the rebuttal?

Re: Wichita $tate

Young people should be more interested, willing and anxious to look at all sides of an issue before sipping the koolaid.

Anyone that believes Charles Koch is evil probably pleasures himself 5 times a week while watching Rachel Maddow.

You can disagree with his beliefs, or his politics, but his track record as a successful businessman and his commitment to higher learning and charitable contributions dwarf anything anyone here has ever or will ever dream of, period.


Take the time to read this....I think you'll find some factual evidence, not just someone's ideas.

Most of it isn't factual evidence but comments...I get it BUT I don't get where shocker fans get the idea that because other teams in the valley are posting this story, they are just gigantic toolbags, it's news whether it makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside or not.

Re: Wichita $tate

Kochfacts presented by Koch Industries. You can go ahead and dismiss the piece by Bloomberg and focus on what thier campaign contributions and the restrictions they put on those contributions to higher learning (see Florida State). They are true icons of american capitalism. (not)

A large % of it IS in fact factual evidence but let's cut through that and get right to point.

What they did was legal, many other US companies used the exact same loophole and many of those companies give millions to democrats.

And in the benzene case, Koch Industries admitted the violation, fired the people responsible, corrected the error as quick as possible, self reported the violation, agreed and even suggested they be punished and pay a penalty for it, and somehow this makes Charles Koch and one of his brothers evil?

Some of you seriously need to look inward and find different avenues in which to focus your wildly troublesome anger.

I am guessing a few you gleefully claim to be in the 99%? Thought so.

I went back and looked through this thread and I didn't really sense much anger on the part of Panther posters. I think you are overreacting.

Re: Wichita $tate

Apparently UNI fan's aren't allowed to comment on news on PantherNation.

Re: Wichita $tate

Not anger... Resentment of WSU.

[clenz]

Re: Wichita $tate

How is there resentment of WSU?

[Sycamorefan]

Not anger... Resentment of WSU.

This same argument as when you have no argument against someone so you call them a hater. I would post this story if it was drake Bradley uni Ue creighton or any other team in the valley and I am sure you would too.

Re: Wichita $tate

resentment? nah, probably more just a form of making fun of a conference rival.

I know there are several WSU fans on shocker forums that always go out of their way to call UNI d3/naia/jr. college, or whatever, just b/c they are pissed that UNI's joining the conference has relegated the Shockers to "also-rans" and nostalgia in many sports.

but hey, such mocking (on both sides) is part of sports fandom/fanatacism
