Kansas State officials continue to apologize for anyone they might have offended by Saturdayâs Jayhawk-vs-dong marching band formation, while insisting there was âno ill intention.â The Star Trek-themed program purported to show the U.S.S. Enterprise attacking a âhorrible space creature,â but to nearly everyone itâŚ
This is, supposedly, the Kansas State band as the U.S.S. Enterprise âencountering a horrible space creature.â It looks a lot more like the Kansas Jayhawk performing fellatio.

La Salle upset Kansas State today, driving Deadspin writers into a frenzy and ruining brackets for those of you foolish enough to trust Bruce Weber to do anything right. He did, for what it's worth, try for a last-second strategy play. Too bad nobody noticed.
Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder is in attendance for the Wildcats' bout in Kansas City against La Salle. What's he eating? Some people have suggested it's a hot dog, but that's one big-ass hot dog. I think it's a burrito.
The last time we wrote about Kansas State guard Angel Rodriguez, he was facing chants of "Where's Your Green Card" from a brain-dead Southern Miss band.
