    Taking a brief hiatus from the board

    Okay, so maybe find another team to root for until Cal leaves? When did everyone turn into such bitches? Oh my god, we lost a game. My life’s over, I don’t have any joy anymore, blah blah blah. Is your life so empty that the only enjoyment you get is Kentucky basketball? If so, pretty sad. Does...

    Zion’s last tweet-

    I don't really have a problem with you. I grew up and spent 20+ years in Kentucky. I probably disagree with 90% of my friends and family still in Kentucky politically. I still love them as people. It's also funny you think I follow you around. You literally post in virtually every thread I...

    Zion’s last tweet-

    Umm, I never said that his height was earned. He was clearly born with physical abilities most people don't have. That's not the point. Those things alone don't make you arguably the best high school basketball player on the planet. It takes a tremendous amount of work. Sorry if I don't think...

    Do you? He's using sarcasm to convey the point that Williamson didn't earn his athleticism or height/weight. What's hard to understand about that? You seem to be struggling.

    Zion’s last tweet-

    Probably the dumbest thing I've read in some time. Someone's bitter about their life. By your moronic logic, someone like Elon Musk hasn't really earned anything because he was just born with a higher intellect than other people.

    Pitino's attorney reiterates "Coach 2" did nothing wrong

    I'm really looking forward to the day Pitino is kicked out of the HOF. In my opinion, his reputation and legacy being destroyed would be the thing that most bothers him, and it's inevitably going to happen.

    OT: Las Vegas

    It It's like the no fly list. If you go to purchase a gun, they wouldn't then test to see if you should be on the list or not. If you're on the list, the background check would see that and deny you the gun. Same thing for mental disorder. Seems pretty reasonable to me.

    No, it would mean that if you've ever been diagnosed with that disorder, you could no longer buy a gun. If you've never had any issues, you'd be good to go.

    OT: Las Vegas

    I don't think it would be all too difficult to come up with a list of mental disorders that should prohibit you from legally buying a gun. I mean, bipolar and schizophrenia would be two that I'd think would be common sense. I'm not all that familiar with all the mental disorders, but even of you...

    OT: Las Vegas

    Let's say your scenario plays out large amounts of former and current military are leading a militia against the US government. You don't think any other country on the planet would be willing to arm that militia? Look at what happens in virtually every country where there's an uprising. A...

    OT: Las Vegas

    Sigh.... It’s cute you think some automatic weapons and mostly untrained people are going to defeat the world’s largest and most powerful military. I’m sure you realize the type of weapons at their disposal. It might have worked in the 1700s when you were mostly fighting with guns, but those...

    Anyone else getting a "sick" feeling about sports in our country?

    Some other quotes from players on why they’re protesting: “We wanted to draw attention to the fact that there’s things in this country that still need to change, and I myself will be raising children that don’t look like me [wife is African American], and I want to do my part as well, to do...

    Anyone else getting a "sick" feeling about sports in our country?

    Convenient for you to leave out the rest of that quote. Here is the entire quote: ”I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There...

    Anyone else getting a "sick" feeling about sports in our country?

    Haha, I hear ya with the Bengals. Now that I’m in Brooklyn I don’t really have the opportunity to watch them (conveniently), but I don’t really want to either. The players have made it clear that they aren’t disrespecting the flag or anthem - it’s about oppression of black people. Whether or...

    Anyone else getting a "sick" feeling about sports in our country?

    You should probably try to understand what’s actually going on before you post. There is no “mass anthem protest.” The players have been very clear they are not protesting the flag or anthem. I also love how people get so upset when someone elects to kneel during the anthem, but then they go out...
