I used to really like Dickie V, but in the last several years he has become very annoying to listen to - especially after Tubby left and during the couple years with Gillispie. He does talk highly of Cal and often praises several of our players like Jamal Murray, Jamal Fox, and Jamal Monk.

If I knew I would be using this same username almost 15 years later, I would had put more thought into choosing it.

Mine is based on the fact that it's a Kentucky "blue world" and all other programs are just living in it.
The 3.0 is just the latest iteration. It's the only name I've ever posted under on this and previous versions of this board going back to the 97-98 season.

I've read this sight for years and only recently decided to create a username so that I could throw my 2 cents in here and there. Diallo was the talk of the town (and did you know he has like the 2nd highest vertical in the combine....ever?!) so I wanted to create one that was relevant to the time that I started posting.

Since there isn't a lot basketball wise to talk about right now, I figured I'd try and find out how some of you decided on your name...
My name is Leon. I am hung like a flea.

Mine was after some energy drink on TV that said to drink it and "Feel the burn." MY last name is pronounced burn, so I took it and ran with it. I've had this on my e-mail account as well. A lot longer than Bernie Sanders when he tried to use it during the Dem. election.

Gonzo- an allusion to Gonzo Journalism, created by Kentucky author Hunter S Thompson, who's an inspiration/role model to every teenager in the state who fancies himself a writer.

Cat- obviously

90- the year I was born.

I am a Fourth Generation Railroader. My Great Grandfather, my Grandfather and my uncle were all Train Engineers. I became a Railroad machinist where I could raise a family and spend more time with my wife and later our daughter!

wish you would post more :)
your husband is a pretty cool guy though - but don't tell him I said that, might inflate his ego

I should post more often...I love The Wildcats!!!... but I have other activities and hobbies that take up much of my time. My husband is VERY passionate about the Kentucky Wildcats and will definitely let folks know his thoughts and opinions when appropriate.

All of this has been so ..... insightful :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Just wanted to let you guys know that Diallo can jump really high in case someone missed that.
Wcs played football in high school and so did skj. The new one will be how many times they say jemari baker and call him Jeremy or they make sure everyone knows it's pronounced Jamal. Dookie v should be the first to screw it up or correct someone

Dirty Dancing was playing on t.v. when I registered. Thought the line would be funny since there are some hostiles here who hate fans from other teams. I will be heard!

Like the name Battle-cat but, it was already taken. Since I have been to War (Gulf war), Warrior-cat just seemed to fit.

Mine is because I am a feisty feline that enjoys pillaging and exploring the north Atlantic in my longship. The 21 comes from how awesome I think Burt Reynolds is on a scale of 1 to 10.
