Sadly, I think this could be the lowest rated one of these and it shouldn't be. College basketball tip off needs a night of its own to steal the thunder. Who thought election night was a good idea?

 

[drxman1]

I desperately wish much pain and suffering to the ******** that decided to move this game up a week.

 

[BleedBlueCats21]

College basketball is the perfect distraction from election ********, actually.

College basketball is the perfect distraction from election ********, actually.

For college basketball fans - yes. For ratings - no. This won't capture many casual fans and will lead to more college basketball is dead articles. IMO.

 

[Ribsandwhitebread]

Being on ESPN, they will likely have Olberman pop in at each timeout to give election updates.

 

[drxman1]

STICK TO SPORTS ESPN.

 

[BleedBlueCats21]

I really don't care about the ratings, chief.

 

[Geese Feeder]

For college basketball fans - yes. For ratings - no. This won't capture many casual fans and will lead to more college basketball is dead articles. IMO.

Good grief who effing cares? You want to improve the sport? Well, we've laundry listed a million things a million different times before. Most of those ideas generally stemmed from a stylistic view and a watchable product -- not from gaffots who are worried with the game being televised the same night as effing mid-terms.

And is Bilas calling the game tonight? Can't effing wait.

 

[Wrong]

I'm already redassed.


Not surprisingly.

 

[Ribsandwhitebread]

Have a few of those Jim Beam Budweiser pops and relax

 

[Kennedy_UK]

I mean this in all sincerity:

Man, f*ck Duke

:boxing:

 

[Ron Mehico]

For college basketball fans - yes. For ratings - no. This won't capture many casual fans and will lead to more college basketball is dead articles. IMO.

WGAF?

One bet is for certain: I just arrived in Indy and I’m going to be hammered drunk and talking **** in T minus 3 hours

 

[ukalum01]

I really don't care about the ratings, chief.

Other than fans of tv shows on the verge of being cancelled (ie Arrested Development each year it was on Fox), I have no idea why any viewer would care about ratings or why they’ve become so heavily reported.

 

[drxman1]

I mean, Worldwide Harris is already hobnobbing with the talking heads.

Cayts.

Nearly passed out doing blood work today. What a poop show. There was the regular guy, and the chick who was job shadowing.


Guy (to new girl): “You’ve never drawn blood before?”
New girl: “Nope.”

Guy: “Wanna try this one?”
Girl: “Yeah, yeah, sure. I can do it.”

:grimace::flushed::grimace::flushed:


Nervous. A. F.

You know UK football is having an historic season when you can't name the men's basketball starting 5 six hours prior to tip-off. And I'm ok with that. :football::cool2::basketball::boxing:

 

[catsfanbgky]

Not it doesn't, it only means Cal has not named the starting 5 yet. Myself, i can follow both and keep up, crazy i know.

 

[UK_Dallas]

Well, some of you can't see the big picture - Disney badly wants to get rid of ESPN. Low ratings for your supposed "big" games isn't going to help that. If they can't get rid of them then there is potential for big cutbacks in live sporting events.

I don't need to tell you where basketball falls in the pecking order. Not sure UK would be affected but I think most of us enjoy watching more than just UK.

[PTI Anon1640710541]

Chief — please go watch CNN/Fox News, and leave us alone now.


Thanks.

 

[drxman1]

So there are people that get “trained” to serve as “physical exam models” for pelvic and prostate exams for medical students. From what I gather, they actually get paid pretty well to get fingered 20-30 times a show.

Cough. Nope, not there yet Jack. Better get knuckle deep.

Shocked Pti hasn’t jumped on that bus yet. That would pay for a lot of ultras and Miller Lite.

Thanks.

Did I disrupt an active discussion of the game in here? I've hardly been able to keep up with all the posts about it today. Apologies.

 

[buckethead1978]

Zion Williamson will have been coached how to fall over at the slightest touch. It will be embarrassing.

I finally ignored UKO. Chief is next.

 

[roguemocha]

I don’t get people who want to watch election results come in over 4+ hours. Watch whatever you want, go to bed, wake up and check news, viola it’s all right there.

I don't either but Trump, love or hate him, has caused a lot more people to pay attention.

If you worked a polling location, I can only imagine your list of grievances with the constituency.

pulled the lever too hard
spent too much time in the booth
asked too many questions about the candidates
showed up too early
stayed too late
accidentally voted for too many candidates
didn’t understand the straight party vote
complained about the sticker

Etc.

[SAECATFAN]

PICK ONE

Win tonight, poor ratings

Lose tonight, ratings bonanza

 

[PFJ_Reg]

I'm going with ratings bonanza. I'd hate to lose to Duke, but the future of college basketball is riding on the ratings of the Champions Classic. Sorry Cayts.

 

[UKwizard]

So we just played a DII team in an exhibition. Tennessee opens its season tonight against a DII team that sounds like a country singing starlet.

 

[PTI Anon1640710541]

like a rhynestone cowboy....

 

[cawoodsct]

Tonight matters for seeding. I want Louisville region. Let’s do this!

I’m in love with you all.

 

[august-west]

-I havent had a drink of alcohol since August 6th, that ended about an hour ago. Been a while since I've needed to "calm the nerves" before a game.

-No American Pickers for this guy tonight, no matter what

-Can't wait to see our white honk go all Duke white honk on thier ***

- I have a feeling Richards has a big game tonight. Just dont see who they have that can go with him.

 

[_Chase_]

Can we kick Michigan State out of the Champions Classic? Every year it sucks having to watch them.

 

[Vismund]

~ Poured the Wild Turkey three fangas deep. We in there tonight.

~ Travel day tomorrow for training across the state so no real limit for dad tonight.

~ Agree with _Chase_ - Izzo ain't holding up his end of the deal in these games.

~ As much as I hate Bilas, ninja's too full of himself, he did pick us to win it all this year. He also has UVA in his final four so TIFWIW.

~ Think the lack of defense from both squads means a high scoring affair. Going 87-81 Cayts.

 

[TriangleUKCat]

Turbo jealous of all those actually in Indy but FFS, get this **** going. Why is it still halftime?

My UNC father-in-law just texted me for maybe 4th time ever (avoids it) with a ":scream: **** FEST"

 

[august-west]

Congrats to one of GYERO's own @legalbeagle123, the newest County Attorney around these parts.... Run Jason, Run

 

[drxman1]

Crash and burn, huh Mav?

 

[august-west]

Ole boy calling in to local radio, from what i assume is Indianapolis......boss move

 

[Wrong]

Judge COOLCAT with a big win.

 

[buckethead1978]

This tip time is ridiculous.
