Let Me See If I Got This Right

The last three days every UK fan has pointed out after UL's win over Arkansas that it was a "cheap" win, because Arkansas didn't have all it's players whatever.My point is if UK beats Tennessee this year will it be considered a cheap win because Tennessee will not have all of it's players?It is the same thing some of Tennessee's players will either be suspended or kicked off the team for one reason or another.I will be willing to bet everything that the wildcat fans will rant and rave about the fact that a win is a win and that is all that matters.It is funny how things always look better through those blue colored glasses that they always like to look through.

App St. didn't care that they were playing a down Michigan team. Instead they've celebrated the upset as the biggest triumph in school history. In the same respect, Gardener Webb didn't care that they were playing a Gillispie headcase. Years from now, their fans(Do they have fans?) will forget that a declining Kentucky squad was battling inner-turmoil at the time, and celebrate that win as one of the most material in their program's history.

UK beat FSU to win their first bowl game since 84'. It didn't matter that a bunch of Bowden's players were ruled ineligible. It's a win over an historic college football power who was coached by a legend. Moreover, though, it was a Kentucky bowl win, which before that, didn't happen very often.

Some situations have more gravity than others. Celebrate the Arkansas victory if you please, Eric. But keep in mind that Arkansas has yet to become a power under Pelphry and a majority of their talent was depleted. It wasn't really a rivalry game for Louisville either. So, touting that blowout as a major achievement essentially works to insult the talent of the current Cardinal roster. For Kentucky football, though, the Tennessee game is a personal issue of demon exorcise.; ▶ Reply to This

Another football note. UL lost today, making it virtually impossible to keep Kragthorpe. I was pulling for the dirty birds.
On to basketball. Why is Pitino playing Sosa against ETSU? He is one of the slowest players I've ever watched, for his size. UK's entire front line are quicker than Sosa. He is just plain slooow.; ▶ Reply to This

My point was he should have followed Coach Pelphrey's example
