ESPN broadcast of the OU/KU game...I may get banned

[Patriotgame]

Who the F is ESPN to talk about the actions of a player while either downplaying or ignoring the diss by a classless POS team at kick off, a late hit on Baker (which should have been targeting), constant punches-knees-pushes-groin shots to our players while they were on the ground, another hit on Baker which should have been targeting and the list could go on...

ESPN, kindly shut the F up and quit trying to install yourself as the morality police as you have tried to do with becoming left's mouth piece for every political and racial issue that exists in society today when it is clear that the collective IQ of your entire staff does NOT add up to ZERO!

You said what I was thinking. Eff Kansas. Wonder what Beaty had to say about them not shaking hands before the game. I've never, ever, seen team captains refuse to shake hands at the coin toss. I wish Riley had left him in to pour it on, or at least turned Kyler loose in the 4th.

 

[Senior Sooner]

I wish the Refs had refused to start the game until Baker's handshake was accepted...

On the other hand...IMO, Baker made a poor choice...

Same here. That is pretty sorry to show up to the coin toss and just refuse to shake hands with your opponents.

I wish wouldn’t done what he did but I understand. The Big 12 need to reprimand Kansas for that

I am guessing the hands behind the back of the players that refused to shake his hand was a shot at him being arrested earlier this year.
Anyone that knows anything about espin would know this is exactly what they were going to do. They just mentioned it on the lsu vs tenn game and said coming up at the half, Baker Mayfields actions today vs kansas orsomething like that. I may need to change the channel now as its almost halftime.

Even Coach Patterson grabbed his players at the end of OUr game with TCU as they were running off the field so they could show proper sportsmanship and shake OU players hands. Patterson's a good and respectful guy and a coaching legend in Fort Worth.

Beaty's got some 'splaining to do.

 

[humblesooner]

And McElroy is the one appalled at his actions? Saw a Facebook post earlier that had a still of McElroy with two fingers up (one on each hand) after one of his Bama games.
Hypocrite is too nice a word for him.

 

[OUSOONER67]

Yeah McElroy would never do anything like that!

 

[OUSOONER67]

He also picks his nose on tv ewwwwwww

Please don't get me wrong...I am NOT condoning Baker's actions and he needs to understand being at OU brings down every bit of hate out there whether from other team's fans, players or the media. He has to be above that.

$20 bux say he eats it... (re: McElroy)

 

[OUSOONER67]

I had to do a meme and put it all out there on the net, hope he sees it

 

[OUSOONER67]

I am over it, Baker is Baker. Kansas deserved worse. If that is the dumbest thing he ever does at 22 then I look even dumber having done much much worse at that age. Lets win that Heisman, Big 12 and number 8 and we won't even bother trying to remember all this.

I tweeted this photo to McElroy's twitter feed. I'm hoping to get blocked for it.

Good job! Hope he sees it, I hashtagged the crap out of it so it shows up in multiple places.

The booger pickin backhanded bastid he is.

 

[Crimson_Warrior]

I understand why Mayfield did what he did. That was a really cheap shot he took from the KU player during the game, plus the disrespect at the coin toss...

Still, if you a leader of a team, the sideline display is not how you behave. Good leaders don't cast themselves as villains. It inspires chaos, not discipline. It motivates the enemy, who sees themselves as fighting for the greater good when they line up against you.

I understand that if you get pushed, you push back. But Mayfield needs to be more discrete, and he needs to keep the focus off of himself as much as possible.

I love the kid to death, and that's what he is, a kid. So he gets a pass for tonight, and I'm confident that he'll learn from this mistake.

 

[WhyNotaSooner]

I thought it was great. Kansas got Bakered on national TV.

After really having time to consider KU's bull crap, I'm not mad at Baker a bit.

Same here. I left to run an errand, girlfriends birthday is tomorrow yep I know where my priorities are you bet! Anyway I missed all the drama except for the lack of a handshake before the game by the ku punks and only saw what Baker did when he grabbed his junk. I did not like it at first but when I saw what caused it all I did not blame him.
Baker reminds me a lot of myself, he does not take crap off anyone. Why you might ask? Because I don't have to. He probably feels the same way, he probably grew tired of taking crap from others at some point in his life. I know I did. Anyway, Baker is alright by me. Gonna miss him when he is gone.

 

[humblesooner]

I'd say KU players are lucky that Baker's nuts are the ones that took the brunt of his outrage.
A real villain would have punished nuts covered in red uniforms.

 

[RightFieldHomie]

I have more of a problem w the big 12 refs allowing dirty play like this continue to happen. Most conferences refs would protect their golden goose. but not the big 12 they would rather see us get our butts kicked or injured. Funny thing in basketball they would do everything for KU, I bet they would do the same if UT was actually worth a crap in football.

 

[CTOkie]

DB Hasan Defense, KU's cheap shot artist, is a sophomore and will likely visit Norman in 2018.
I hope either Kendall or Murray pass for over 300 yards and 5 touchdowns with Defense in the secondary.
The best revenge is succeeding.

 

[ohsfan28]

Yeah McElroy would never do anything like that!

the funny thing is McElroy did that during an Auburn game that Auburn eventually ended up winning. In fact, McElroy ended up leaving that game with an injury late in the 4th quarter

 

[BillyRay]

I wasn't mad even when I first heard about it. Kansas kept picking and picking until they got a response. And somehow Baker is held responsible for giving a response. Somehow we now live in a society where Baker I guess has to stay a victim and is vilified for dishing out some payback to players on the other sideline whom were making it a personal thing with him the entire game.

100 percent agree. I am still angry as hell with the targeting on Baker. Kansas showed their true colors with the no handshake.

The KU coach has stripped the three of their captaincy for their next game, osu.
