Kentucky fans are like the 65-year-old guy at the bar by himself, jaded from a roller coaster life of passionate young love, unplanned pregnancy, marriage, divorce, a new fling, a shotgun wedding, a mistress, another divorce, a rekindling with the first wife, a remarriage, a third divorce, a child after a one-night stand, a spontaneous wedding, a fourth divorce, a week in Reno with a cocktail waitress named Tammi, and a slew of diseases along the way. He’s seen the highest of highs (1996-98) and the lowest of lows (Billy Clyde Gillispie) and has been around the block so many times that nothing really fazes him anymore. Meanwhile, Virginia and Iowa State fans are like 13-year-olds who just had their first kiss. They’re so giddy that they’ve devoted every waking second of their lives to telling the world how in love they are.

I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Gonzaga fans
I assume they know their leading scorer is a kid that wasn't good enough to start at UK?

The inspiration for the Curtain of Distraction was a viral YouTube clip one of the 942 Crew members watched of a Duke fan best known as "Speedo Guy."

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Thought SC just may give UK their first loss.... guess not. LSU is now the biggest threat but they better not overlook Arkansas and Missouri. From the crowd pics, looks as if there were as many UK fans in Columbia as SC fans...

You should have gone. You could have paid a visit to the grave of your childhood buddy Strom Thurmond...

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
They don't like hearing about how Andrew Harrison is forcing his shots and is a ball hog over at cat's pause. They get downright nasty with you.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Okafor is acting like a punk today making muscles 4 minutes into the game.
He shows the ball a lot as well, not super impressed with him right now, does not seem close to the athlete as A. Daivs.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
well they deleted the thread after 3 pages. I didn't start it but I was the least popular there for telling them the reason he gets his minutes is because Cal can't afford to have him come back for his junior year.Saint wrote:eCat wrote:They don't like hearing about how Andrew Harrison is forcing his shots and is a ball hog over at cat's pause.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
at least its not just me...
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Try as Kentucky coach John Calipari might to prop him up, there is just no way around it now. Starting point guard Andrew Harrison is struggling. The top-ranked Wildcats are winning despite him at times lately, as was the case in Saturday's 58-43 victory at South Carolina.
Harrison hit just 1 of 5 shots and finished with four points, two assists and two turnovers. On more than one occasion, he drove into the teeth of the defense without a discernible plan. He often left his feet in traffic and, once in the air, flung the ball wildly in the general direction of a teammate.
"He's getting better. I'm fine with him," Calipari said. "I thought he finished the game good, made some free throws that we needed, ran the game pretty good."
But these are the facts: over the last 10 games, Harrison has hit just 14 of 64 shots – 21.9 percent – with 42 assists to 23 turnovers. Freshman backup Tyler Ulis, meanwhile, is hitting 48.6 percent from 3-point range for the season and has 63 assists to just 17 turnovers. He took charge Saturday and was the catalyst for a 14-0 run that swung the game.
