One of my items on The List (I refuse to call it a Bucket List because I’m not starring in some shitty movie with Jack Nicholson) is to attend a Final Four at least once, and preferably with UK playing in it. I have no idea if UK will make it this year with the […]
I don’t know why Kelly must hate on UK so much. This is one of my best friends, and he can’t even give me a little support for a team I love. It’s not like we’re dating and I’m a huge Steelers fan or something. Because, you know, that would be way funnier. Was he […]
I am not a superstitious guy. At least, I don’t think I am. But this is going to test me for sure. If you don’t know, there is a theory called the Sports Illustrated Cover Jinx. And now I really only care because John Wall has made the cover of SI. And if this means […]
Is on freshman UK point guard John Wall. Here he is last week dunking on Jerry Stackhouse in a Pro-Am in NC. Sure, he’s only staying one year, but it might be a damn good year to see a stud in blue and white play for the Cats. […]
Sure, we still have a lot to do to make the house perfect. The walls still lacks art, and there are plenty of little projects littered throughout the home to pursue, but one thing is for sure, one of the most important pieces of the home has been added. Lots of other houses have flags […]
My brother Michael is so in love with the idea of John Calipari as the new UK coach, I tried settling him down with a rather bizarre question: “You’re gonna get a life-size blowup doll of Calipari for your room, aren’t you?” Michael in about 0.000047 seconds: “If he brings championships to UK, yes I […]
I need Norman Dale. UK is looking for a new coach. It’s better to just do it now and get it over with. Pat Forde, a former Louisville journalist that I loathe at almost all times, wrote a well-rationed piece that pretty much sums it up. Mark Story has a subtle reply column. Both are […]
Today is Selection Sunday. For someone from Kentucky, this gets marked on the calendar along with birthdays, Derby Day and when the beginning of college basketball begins. But for the first time in my memory that I can aptly recall, Selection Sunday will not be viewed by me. This is because my most beloved sporting […]
So two days after making me feel awesome to cheer for UK, the school punches me right back in the gut. We lost to hated rival UofL in hoops, a much bigger deal than winning a bowl game. Winning the bowl was sweet, but losing in hoops just means more. I feel sick. It’s bad […]
Hell yeah, the Cats won the Liberty Bowl. Sure, it’s about 3 stages about a Toy Bowl game amongst 8-year-olds, but hey, it’s a bowl game nonetheless. U of L didn’t make a bowl game, so they can suck it. This victory was not an easy one, but the way it was sealed was nothing […]
