We'll be lucky to get the refs that handle Lexington girls JV basketball after this.

Well, then, if an upgrade is the result going forward, at least we took something from Sunday.

FWIW I can't think of any other recent examples of rural Americans being galvanized by the conspiratorial claims of a controversial wealthy white man.

I mean, I get THREE scratches per year. I can't understand how major D1 coaches can't get at least one. It's natural to just not like a dude, especially in a competitive environment. There's a lot at stake in some of these games. In some cases, 2-3 million dollar contracts.



Plus, being able to scratch one dude might help alleviate some of the misguided paranoia that fan bases have. Make the annual ref scratches part of a big production at Madness, perhaps a Hunger Games theme(?) Just spitballing here.

Strong work on the Higgins Facebook campaign BBN. Now, any chance that TV Teddy has a business that you all can help close?

 

[IsRichieGonnaStart]

I have full confidence that MilqueToast will do everything in his power to make certain that Higgins never officiates a UK tourney game again.

Ha!

 

[legalbeagle123]

Embarrassing? Yes.

But if it keeps Higgins out of our games...[thumb2]

 

[_Chase_]

I'd say there's a 100% chance Milk Toast has already called Higgins to apologize.

-Haven't read the past few pages. Doubt I will. Sorry for any redundancy.

-So we blew up that dudes biz on facebook, yeah that seems a bit overboard. Granted, he was awful. Really awful. Still, that's not exactly cool.

-Sat next to Travis Ford for both games. Kind of surprising that he was there, REALLY surprising that he was right up next to us getting down right ornery with the officiating and living/dying with every play. Easily as animated as anyone in our row.

-Meh, 2015 really shook something. My recovery period was pretty minimal for this. Not ready to dive back into my normal total college sports immersion but I'm fine otherwise. Still bummed b/c of the missed opp but nothing like 15.

-Positive side is cycling season is ramping up. Leggo. Nice little rides abound.

-Memphis seems better than it was before. Main St and some of Beale is fairly nice, then over on the other side of The Peabody that little area. Would be a great SECT venue. The locals were down right NASTY post game. Whew boy. Nasty and really really drunk. They still mad at Cal.

-Knocked out the "Missing Richard Simmons" podcast on the way down. Other than being 2 episodes too long it was ok. Him going missing was about the 10th most fascinating part of it. People going batshit crazy over that guy seems unfathomable. He universally seemed like an amazing guy. But yeah, I mean, Richard Simmons.

-Flight in Memphis is worth a visit if you're in town. Good food, different spin.

-One of the best stretches of the year coming up. Best weather, Keeneland, Derby, Masters, Baseball coming back, lead up to the crazy season at work.

-Listened to most of "All Eyes on Me" today. Man, that sucker still holds up. Brings back old memories. Banger after banger.

My first time posting in GYERO was about a month after the MSU loss in Austin. Nuts. Been through a ton together. Wouldn't change it for the world and we'll be right back at it in November chasing what seems to be a very elusive #9.

 

[UKStoleMyFish]

So redundant.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

Our redundancies have redundancies.

10 of first 12 threads on rafters about Higgins. A few BJW's will end up in prison with Larry Vaught if they aren't careful.

 

[Barrett Lindsey]

Hey y'all, just thought I'd let you guys know how much better you all are at crushing someone's internet soul than the KSR commenters.

Missed this place.

As I said when it first aired that Kentucky/Kansas Coke commercial would realistically end with Kansas fan tied up in his garage at minimum.

 

[Ron Mehico]

Can't wait for the 30 for 30 on Calipari here in 2 weeks and all the potshots CBB writers will take at it. opcorn:

What a **** time to air that show. Should have been this week regardless of us winning or losing.

 

[K-GAR]

I thought a few of you ladies and gents might appreciate some words on the BS Cal underachieves narrative

 

[krazykats]

Anyone else think we get a **** draw every year because of Cal dropping his nuts all over the NCAA with this one and done rule, every single year?

Knowing that if we were given certain draws we easily have at least 1 more title at this point and then 1 and done is seen completely different.

 

[PuffyNips]

Excellent, KGar.

 

[GrandePdre]

Dope watch.

 

[cawoodsct]

K-GAR, solid work.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

I don't need to tell you about this then.

Nicely done. Your best work to date.

 

[Midway Cat]

Didn't see BBdK and me credited in that piece, K-Gar.

Please delete. TIA.

 

[UKwizard]

K Gar is sea of blue? I get that email most of the time dont delete it and sometimes skim the articles. Well done.

 

[wildcat1973_rivals160373]

Post MFers...quit being pussies.

 

[UK ALUM10]

End of college basketball season = tumbleweeds rolling through GYERO.

 

[BBdK]

Amazon's 'Goliath' is highly binge-able if you're looking for something non-sports to watch, like me. Haven't watched actual TV in months, so been ripping through that this week.

Billy Bob Thornton, as always, is fantastic. So there's my Rec.

Probably watch Sneaky Pete next -- enjoyed the Pilot awhile back, then basketball ramped up.

 

[cawoodsct]

I hate a portion of our fans. This will surely help going forward folks.

BJW is pretty much the kraken.

 

[mashburned]

If you can't embrace your BBN brothers then gtfo. I'll tell you who loves this stuff - John Cal. Idc what he says to milktoast, or KSR news, behind the coffee counter he's telling JoJo to "burn that mfer's whole entire village down. I don't ever want to see a Higgins again". This is a savage program and it's not for everybody. If you're embarrassed by it, maybe you should go join the ACC.

 

[SAECATFAN]

No.

What the hell is wrong with you?

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

It is interesting that Cal hasn't commented on this yet.

 

[mashburned]

Get lost. Go kick some BBN campers and have a nice quiche brunch.

The guy is officiating the final four. What a joke. Everything about this league is stupid.

 

[GrandePdre]

If there were egregious Higgins calls that last 5 minutes when we had the lead, I could somewhat understand that mentality. Wouldn't condone it, but I could understand it. But they overcame that ****** whistle and just didn't make enough plays and shots down the stretch. Dennis Green (R.I.P.) said it best.

 

[parrott]

Sneaky Pete is actually pretty good and grows on you. Recommend.

Absolute idiots.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

UK Fan's rep is pretty much **** anyway. Not sure this will make things any worse. It'll just (correctly) reinforce opinions. I'm a little surprised a meltdown like this hasn't happened before, frankly.

 

[krazykats]

I just do not see what the mans private business has to do with officiating? If we were bombarding the NCAA with complaints and justified examples of said complaints while trying to run him from officiating, fine and that might work.

Leave that man's private life the F alone.

 

[SAECATFAN]

Quiche is disgusting and I loathe brunch, Mashburned. Please stop with the stereotypes.
