    Your favorite Verne Lundquist call

    "Yeah he did." As a young boy, this had a profound impact on me. It showed me that despite attempts to cover up reality, the ability to confidently speak the truth is powerful. Verne had no time for the bull, called it like it was. RESPECT.

    What was it like between '99 and '08?

    I remember going to watch Dakotah Euton and trying to desperately convince myself he was going to great. Good kid and mean no disrespect to him, but that's how delusional the late 2000's were for me. Edit: I just looked DE up and found his Twitter. God bless that dude!

    Who is writing for ESPN?

    Did you read the article? Look, I hate Duke and UNC and don't know Jeff Borzello all that well, but he writes..."after handling the aforementioned pair of ACC foes with relative ease." The first eight paragraphs are about UK's improvement. I would say handling someone with relative ease is...

    Cal: "I didn't hear balls bouncing in the gym"

    Bahama brain! Team getting way to comfortable; lazy in success. "Mom, when is dinner gonna be ready?!"

    Excluding boxing & MMA. What's your all time favorite sports fight?

    Pedro Martinez vs. Don Zimmer. Saw it live with my wife and I will never forget the way she laughed when it happened. It was awesome.

    How You Feeling This Morning?

    Very disappointed...not at all surprised.

    After watching Porter, Ayton, Young....

    Davidson would have beat many good teams Thursday. The difference? Mental toughness. Teams with superior talent and ZERO mental toughness can't withstand the onslaught of March when crazy crap happens. When UK has lost with CAL at the helm in the tourney, it is typically because of a mental...

    "For unannounced reasons, Michael Eaves was fired by ESPN immediately after Sportscenter early this morning..."

    Dick Vitale

    What bothers me most about Vitale is not his verbosity, but that what he says is usually wrong. Yesterday it was odd for him to keep talking about how heavy of a favorite Kentucky (or how heavy of an underdog Vanderbilt) was, and that 'everyone' just assumed UK would walk in and win. The Cats...

    Drew Deener acknowledging Jurich bullied their radio station

    Deener is a tool. He was used and abused and a prick on air while Jurich oversaw it all. He fit right in with the folks that employed him. I called his show several times because it was the only sports radio show on in the morning on my way to work. He had no problem being a donkey any time...

    Have you ever gotten into a physical altercation over UK or sports in general?

    After Woodson fumbled near the goal line (05? 06?) a young U of L fan ( I was 25 at the time) was yelling junk to me on the way out of commonwealth. The U of L team bus was out in the parking lot and he came into my eye sight and was pointing at the bird logo and started saying something like...
