The Goat Pen

The market has lost 1.1%. Chill.

I wish your micropenis lost another 1.1%.

Hurts your anus huh?

Jason Tatum sure got exposed as the fraud he is. Steve Kerr did a lot of spinning but Tatum is good against some teams and a liability against others. Fraud. Obviously the Celts title this year is demoted from an asterisk to completely invalidated.

You should be fishing in those big money sailfish tournaments with that type of trolling....

I essentially constipated myself with Imodium the Saturday of our Member-Guest this year because I knew that if I did not do that, day three of all day boozing and eating like shit in the heat would not go well with multiple emergency shit breaks, and the turd I finally pushed out Sunday night / early Monday morning hurt like a mother fucker. It gave me appreciation for the beating that IB's asshole has taken over the years.

Lebron would have been proud.

Nice flop…not clicking this one either…

The Maui Bracket is out:

Nothing like UConn to start the season…

so Kentucky landed a big freshmen and it appears they are the leader (if they haven't already got a commitment ) from a kid named Jasper Johnson.

In order to get that commitment they had to pay 1.5X what Bama was offering.

I am so fed up with college recruiting thanks to the NIL.


My take is this.

its hard for me to reconcile the whole "I'm here to win banners" along with all the other Kentucky superlatives they say to the camera knowing UK had to be the highest bidder for them to wear the uniform. Lets just see it for what it is.

UK paid them to be here to win championships

and lets not be afraid to hold them accountable for it.

Call a kid out mid season who is underperforming, who isn't doing what it asked of him and quite simply isn't putting in the herculean effort it takes to be the best at this.

and remind him and everyone else that the Porsche Turbo he is riding around in wasn't given to him to be an 8 -2-2 kid at a college powerhouse.

That's shitty I know but fuck it, these kids are now making 12X the salary of the average person in the state they represent, they are going to stay one year, and then they'll either go pro or go to the highest bidder the following year.

They aren't kids , stop treating them as such. They are paid professionals who are expected to perform.

I am at a point where I'd rather have a good kid that is a 3 -4 year guy, who is happy to make $200-$300K a year (as anyone should) than these 18 year old jackasses that truly believe their talent is worth the money they are making.

It will take another 3-4 years before it shakes out but youj're going to see a re-calibration in college basketball where freshmen don't get nearly as much as proven upper classman

100% agreed, eCat. Carolina was thought to be the co-finalist with Alabama for Jasper until Kentucky’s winning bid. I’ll take Joel Berry over Cole Anthony any day. Hell, I barely remember Anthony playing at Carolina.

Cole was there before NIL though, wasn't he? I mean he came to Carolina b/c he wanted to, not b/c we paid him more than anybody else. But yes, he did seem like he knew he was only going to be there one year...

Zayden High is suspended from school and gone from the Carolina Basketball team. Our interior rotation is razor thin, but if he fucked up badly enough to get kicked out of school, GTFO!!! He’s a douchebag and not worth any trouble whatsoever.

Nobody seems to know the nature of the infraction on IC...

There is a rumor circulating that he recording a hook up with some chick without the girl's knowledge and then the recording got out....

I like your rumor better than the ones I’ve heard.

Is this going to be another Duke Lacrosse type scandal?
