that scholly count has nothing to do with Thornton. It goes way beyond that.

Obvious that it's very important for you to make that insistence here, and that's all you have to support you claim - insistence. While innuendo, timing, and Thorton family displeasure go far beyond your statement's value, which is very low. Around these parts, the general wisdom - a tried and true practice - is placing the shoe on the other foot. And when we put yours on ours it absolutely stinks to high heaven. Go away.

Oh, so now you're a tough guy too. Youve got the ignorant red neck and the big bully façade going for ya now.

Post whatever you want tough guy but don't act shocked when someone calls you out for posting ignorant dumb ****.
I'm no tough guy. You acted like the tough guy and called me out. If you can't handle me coming back at you, then that sounds like a personal problem.

Not to mention, you're the one that's losing your cool, going on a drama filled rant with personal attacks and name calling, not the other way around. Look in the mirror, get a grip, and sack up.

Frank Jackson is going to be a very good player, but the ones that think this kid can come in and be their leader at point guard his freshman year of college after watching him hit some 3s in all star games are going to be in for a surprise. The kid is not even a point guard. You can play the kid there, but that doesn't make him a real point guard. He's a shooting guard that is going to have to learn to play point guard if he wants to make money playing basketball. Frank has never met a deep 3 he didn't like. The kid is ready to launch it from 3 the moment he crosses half court. Don't get me wrong, he can hit those shots at a high %, but he will have more games his freshman year of college basketball where his shots aint falling and Duke fans are going to go insane. When his shot isn't falling, he's not the type of guard to get others going. If his shot aint falling, he is going to keep shooting until it starts to go in. He's a very talented player, but leading Duke to a title his freshman year playing a position he's not used to? I doubt it, but you never know. This transfer is the best news a Kentucky fan could have got about Duke next season. Duke is oaded, but they just lost their best point guard and their best defender outside the paint. That is great news to us Kentucky fans. It's even better news than them landing Bolden imo. Watching Frank and Allen try to guard quick guards outside the paint is going to be lots of fun come next season.

Yeah, folks thinking Duke wanted this outcome are dead wrong. Duke 247 insiders said that the coaching staff has been trying to keep Thornton since January, and Bolden's scholarship most likely would come from Obi retiring for medical reasons, or the staff wouldn't have offered Jack White a scholarship a month or so ago.

Otoh, Thornton just didn't look good this year and I'm not convinced that Duke is worse off with Frank Jackson playing point (at least he can shoot straight), assuming no injuries.

I sent you a message. To private message, you just click on the person's name and it will give an option to start a conversation
actually that only works if you're a premium member, but a member can message a non-member easily enough

at least - I can't open any private messages and was told that was why

LMAO! You're funny. I don't think you said a single true thing in that post. How can you lose your cool with emojis?

And drama filled rant? Are you delusional?

Nice try with the deflection tactic though. Epic fail however.

Yea, I talk ish, as do you. I don't like you, however, because you don't come to the Duke board with civility, only ignorance. Plenty of good UK fans here, you're just not one of them IMO.

All that said, however, I figured you could understand that scholly count has nothing to do with Thornton. It goes way beyond that.

Shows your either very stupid or very immature because I posted over their for years with no problems on the Duke board. However you would always post about how you hated Cal and UK and everything about them, hummm but yet here you are posting on a UK board trying to rationally talk to us... hint if you constantly talk crap about our coach and program on your board nobody will take you seriously when you try to post on our board. IMO your the WORST kinda poster ever as you talk crap behind our backs then try to act like you don't despise us on our board, lol. Games up bud go back to your board and trash us.

Yeah, you're right, I'm the tough guy, ignorant redneck, bully, yet the only person I see acting in such a manner in this thread is you. How's it feel?

Guess you don't know the meaning of facade.

You sound like my wife with her selected hearing. I said you had tough guy, ignorant red neck, and bully facade going on. But whatever, I'm done with you. Wasted enough time on you.

Sure thing, buddy. The feeling is mutual. Next time do us both a favor and mind your own business, instead of trying to play message board cop, worrying about what language I decide to use in my post.

Like I said from the very beginning, the solution is simple. If it bothers you that much, you know where the report button is; otherwise, move along.

Seriously, you again? Maybe you should move along, you've been following me all day. You made an ignorant post and got called out for it. You're surprised? Get over, I'm sure it will happen again. You're tough guy facade isn't fooling anyone around here.

Maybe if you would use actual language then nobody would call you out. Funny how you twist a couple of emojis into someone playing cop. But whatever, if you don't like my responses, then you can hit the report button too. It works both ways buddy. If you post ignorant **** like that, don't be surprised when someone calls you out or makes fun of you.

Move along now, move along.

@UKCATSFREAK

I thought you were done with me and had wasted enough time on me? So much fot that, huh?

Anyways, how in the hell am I following you? Please explain that one? I'm just responding to your nonsense. You might want to go back and actually reread how this all came about, and how it actually progressed into what it is.

You're the one that got your panties in a wad because of the language I used, thought you would call me out for it, but then got you're feelings hurt when I came back at you. Again, if you can't handle someone coming back at you, then I suggest you avoid calling people out.

Besides that, all I did was simply tell you that I didn't care what you thought of my language, and if it bothered you that much then for you to report me. Next thing I know you're carrying on about tough guys, ignorant rednecks, bullies and all kinds of other meaningless stuff.

Again, I'll say this one last time, if you don't like the language I use, report me. If not, then mind your own business and move on, because I couldn't care less if you like my language or not, and it definitely isn't your place to tell me what language I can and cannot use. It's that simple.

@UKCATSFREAK @DwayneMeighan Not really trying to get in the middle of this pissing match, but I would just like to know, @UKCATSFREAK, why is what @DwayneMeighan said about Duke fans such an ignorant comment, and why does it bother you so much that he said?

Not that either of you asked me, but if you did, I'd say if the shoe fits, wear it. Ain't that right, Duke fans.


If you can't understand why "*** ***" is an ignorant comment then no need in wasting anytime explaining it to you. It really wasn't that huge of a deal, your buddy turned it into a deal. Did you see what I responded to him from his original post?


It's was literally this.......


Really?


[eyeroll][eyeroll]


Exactly that. That's all it was and then he goes into a rant about minding my own business. So, go back and read all the comments if you're going to join in on the fun.

Whoa! Chill out. I was only asking. I agree is was in poor form, but why not just report him like he said?

Anyways, I did read through this mess, unfortunately. And for the sake of accuracy, he actually replied to your "Really?" post with a subtle "Yes, really." That's when you started getting personal saying "There's one like you in every crowd."

Either way, makes no difference to me. Was just wondering. Carry on.

There you go with your selective hearing, yet again. This is hilarious. You're delusional to think that's how this conversation went. You called my 1 word and emoji response a "drama filled rant". LMAO!!

Like I said, there's one in every crowd. Mama always said.....You can't fix stupid.


Yes, I know. If I don't like your "language" then I can........blah, blah, blah. You've said it 10 times already and it was as meaningless this time as the first.

No, I called the comment below a drama filled rant, which, imo, it is. You made it a much bigger deal than it was.
Oh, so now you're a tough guy too. Youve got the ignorant red neck and the big bully façade going for ya now.

Post whatever you want tough guy but don't act shocked when someone calls you out for posting ignorant dumb ****.

This is your first post to me
Really?



[eyeroll][eyeroll][eyeroll]
I responded in kind with this
Yes, really.


[eyeroll][eyeroll][eyeroll]
Then you got pissy and responded with this
There's always one in every crowd. Such an ignorant comment.
So I then respond with this, basically telling you that I didn't really care what thought, to mind your own business, and for you to report me if it bothered you that much.
There's always one of your type in every crowd as well. How about you let me worry about how and what I post, and you do the same for yourself.

If it bothers you that much, either report it to the mods or shut up and deal with it. Your choice.
Next thing I know you're going on your drama filled rant that's quoted above, talking about tough guy, ignorant redneck and bully, when actually it was you that was acting like the tough guy bully to begin with, not me.

You threw the first shot, couldn't handle me coming back at you and then got all bent out of shape about it. That's not my fault. If you didn't want me coming back at you, then you shouldn't have gotten pissy with me. Like I said earlier, look in the mirror, get a grip and sack up.

Oh geez, how to you get "whoa! Chill out" from my response to you. Seriously, you act like I just kicked your dog. My response wasn't anything like that.

Oh, so his "Yes, really" was subtle and my "Really?" was over the top or something? LMAO with that crap. At least be objective if you're going to join in and if you're going to quote me, do it correctly instead of adding the words "like you" to make it sound more personal.

Look, you obviously by your first post, you thought the comment "fit". That's fine but if you can't understand that it is an ignorant comment and can be offensive to some people, then you're the one with the problem. You all act shocked that someone would find that comment ignorant or offensive. Its a message board, so I'm allowed to voice my opinion on such things. I wasn't policing anyone, I didn't tell him to knock it off or report him. Just called the comment ignorant. Am I not allowed to do that? He better get used to it if he's going to talk that way, I'm sure it won't be the only time someone calls him out.

You're so funny. You call that a drama filled rant? Whatever. Stop being dramatic. You just can't stop with the selective hearing stuff. Nice job of posting my quotes and then giving your versions of yours. "I was basically saying...... blah blah". GTFOH with that ****. Really?

You can go ahead and spin it any way you like, I really don't have the energy to argue with you anymore. It's getting late.

Mama was right though, you can't fix stupid.

Didn't you say this already like hours ago, yet you still continue on with your nonsense, all because I said some mean words about Duke fans. Boo hoo for you.

Notice, you're the only one that got your panties in wad about it. So what's that say? That's the only stupid I see around here.

Do you want the last word? Is that why you keep coming back? Is it really that important to you? Tell you what, after this post of mine, you can reply and get it all off your chest, and I won't respond. How's that?
