Just texted him but he's probably got his phone off. Then again, he probably still remembers the first question of the first interview I did with him when he was in 10th grade and I called him, "Cody," before quickly correcting myself. It was too late. I could see the hurt in his eyes and I knew that one day, he would make me pay.
He likely just recognized the piece of shit that you are. Shit recognized shit.

"41 years ago today, Kentucky was on the cover of Sports Illustrated for beating Duke in the national championship game.

You're welcome, America."

America wasn't thanking UK for beating Duke in 1978. Duke wasn't Duke in 1978. In fact, I'd say UK was Duke in 1978. Irregardless, you can't spell "Duke" without "UK"...

So true. Then again, you didn't even realize they were in the tournament.

"and UNC can't beat them with Zion"

Yeah, they beat us by 1 point and we had the last shot, they beat ya'll by 34, and it really wasn't even that close. Hey, I know a loss is a loss, but let's face it, some losses are worse than others. Like way fucking worse. I think this qualifies as "way fucking worse"...

UNC's game with them only counted as a 0.7 loss. UK's loss counted as a 1.6 loss!

UNC's game counted as a great game that went down to the wire, UK's game counted as an ass-raping embarrassment...

The general public's enjoyment of a game does mitigate a L, I take it?

As a fan, I have always found the close losses more heartbreaking, though.

I'd love to see a Texas Tech - Auburn Final. That would be so much more fun.

I suspect the NCAA and tv networks would agree.

Totally agree, but I'd rather be heartbroken than humiliated...

Carolina beat dook with Zion in the starting lineup in the first game this season. Revise and resubmit
