Monk had the best post about Cedric Cornbread Maxwell and Carolina Charlotte. I still laugh thinking about it

I miss that guy (but not enough to remember his name)

What was the gist of his post?

it was all the context , it was back when there were hundreds of us on whatever board we were on and one guy was a UNCC fan - something along the lines of the 3 best players from UNCC was Cedric Maxwell, Cornbread Maxwell and Cedric Cornbread Maxwell and it pissed the guy off

I leave for a few weeks and there’s a whole new set of memes going when I get back. I was wondering why the board felt so stale. It was me all along. I rule.

You were gone?

Isn't it funny (or something) that it used to be you'd just get pop-up ads for shit you were talking about on your phone and we'd be like "damn, the phone is listening to me, ha-ha," and now it's "actual" people popping up applying for jobs that are exactly connected to shit you were talking (typing, actually) about in an off- off- off- Broadway chatroom? Skynet is here, and it is us...

Start noticing: You were posting some shit about Cornbread Maxwell and then a kid comes in for an interview and the first thing on his resume is UNC-Charlotte and you're thinking to yourself "Hmmm, isn't that a coincidence?" Start noticing how often these "coincidences" are occurring. Looking at a word online or in a book or magazine and then somebody says it on the radio at that exact moment. Shit like that. I'm not sure what it means, but mark me, lads...

Notice the "coincidences"...

My oldest is a graduate of UNCC, the dominant basketball program of ConferenceUSA, the wit of the CNNSI message boards, and the oppressor to Huggie Bear and his cast of convicts.

Duke dismantled a real basketball team. I mean I'm sure Arizona St isn't going to set the world on fire, but they aren't some DII high school gym wannabe.

Kentucky fans took notice since UK plays Duke in a couple of weeks

Fuck those Bearcat wannabes.

That Venezuelan fuck Diego Guevara blew kisses to the sky after every made three damn near led UNCC to an upset of Carolina in the 1998 tournament. That was an incredibly tight second round game that UNCC could have won in regulation. Shammond Williams may not have shown up for the Final Four's, but he showed up in that second round game. UNCC smothered Jamison, and Carter and Williams saved the team that Saturday afternoon.

I am really excited about UK basketball again.

Yea, UK fans expect to win, that's a given but we're just as excited about having an exciting style of play. Tubby Smith came in and sucked the life out of basketball, Gillispie was a drunk sadist and Calipari went about like we expected. We all hoped that Cal would go out on top but he is an arrogant bastard (prerequisite to coach at UK until now) and he got Rupp syndrome where he thought the fans would continue to kiss his ass for what he did a decade ago. In two games Arkansas got the complete Calipari experience - beat Kansas and then lose to TCU followed by him throwing the team under the bus.

Anyways, Pope has some players that seem sincere about trying to be about UK first, and he has them playing a style of ball that is fun for the fans. I doubt anyone confuses UK for a final four team this year but the games will be worth watching. And we won't have a coach who coaching philosophy is to yell GOOOOO and RUUUUUN on the sideline

My buddies kid transfered from Liberty to Wright State. He's gonna get his ass kicked tonight.

I wish you were your buddy's kid...
